Daily reminder that 99.9% of all video games are objectivly shit

RomanGladiator · January 12, 2015, 08:31:25 PM

Half Life 2 also came out 11 years ago. It got me thinking...what if Halo tried to incorporate some simple puzzles? Actually now that I think of it it wouldn't seem possible without a utility tool like the Gravity Gun, or at least a co-op partner. I'm hoping that maybe there will be a little bit of platforming in Halo 5 now that we can clamber. Clamber and jet pack would have been a nice combination to see.

Halo 2 is a 7/10 game. Halo 3 is a 10/10 game.

Just for Halo 2 Anniversary alone, it's worth it.
The Anniversary multiplayer? It's not the same as the campaign sadly. It's a beefed up Halo 4 engine basically.
It mostly feels like Halo 2, but it has some differences.

But the fact that you get technically 6 games for the price of 1:

Halo CE
Halo CE Anniversary
Halo 2
Halo 2 Anniversary
Halo 3
Halo 4

Yeah.......it's worth it.

The Matchmaking works, but joining with friends is problematic even still. some people do fine, but I just can't play with friends without having someone getting kicked.

And OH YEAH

IT'S THE FREAKING ARBITER

I sure love missing forty attacks on someone whose crotch is in my face; despite that, it's still better than TES: Potato Faces and Skyrimjob.

YES SIR!

Halo 2 all day baby.

I'll never have as much fun on a video game as I had from 04-06 playing halo 2.

Daily reminder that none of the Halo games even come close to the best video games.
If you think otherwise you're objectively wrong and need to expand your library of games.

How is that a bad thing? You get a fixed version of the MP instead of the broken one.

No you get four games that you probably already own. Halo CE and CEA are the same games and Halo 2 and Halo @A are the same games. Updating the graphics doesn't change anything.

So the best possible way to make a game is to have it broken and unfinished?

343 didn't make Reach though.
And it's not like they have a choice in the matter either.

You're seriously overrating the first trilogy.

They had a choice to not make Halo 4 such a PoS. That game alone disgraces the entire series.

Bungie had the choice of making Reach a good game instead of the utter shit it is.
Halo 4's MP is the only thing that "disgraces" the franchise (even though the MP is actually fairly solid, but just very different). It excelled with the campaign, unlike Bungie's Halos (namely 3, and especially Reach's dogshit campaign).

They're extremely overrated, especially 2 and 3.

4's story felt like a bad fanfic. Too many new characters that really brought nothing to the table. Its not just the MP that's bad; its the gameplay of the entire game that is bad. Loadouts, AAs, killcams, lag, glitches, sub-par music, etc. Its Destiny reskinned as a Halo.

Halo 4 is deeply grounded in what Bungie already laid out. Character development (something which is pretty absent from Bungie's games), and a consistent plot throughout the game *cough*unlikeHalo3*cough*
You also like Reach, so...

Quote

Okay. Give me an example.
And it's not like a Halo game has ever done this either.

The gameplay itself is actually fine, it's things like loadouts and AAs that are shit.

Quote

Loadouts, AAs, killcams, lag, glitches, sub-par music, etc.

How is music at all related to gameplay? And the only thing wrong with H4's music is that it's a bit too quiet.

RomanGladiator · January 13, 2015, 12:35:35 PM

I think Halo 5 will be a good game, not a great game. That is unless the campaign truly wows me with dazzling environments and huge sandboxes where large scale battles take place. Give me a bizarre environment that feels truly alien. And please, the campaign needs to be longer than eight missions. We need something new in addition to the classic multiplayer. What will it be? Spartan Ops was a failed experiment. I need to see something truly next gen. I don't think Halo will ever live up to 1, 2, and 3 for me because of the nostalgia; I've been playing Halo for almost 14 years, as old as some of you. All my hopes rest upon DICE and Battlefront this year to truly deliver the next gen experience I have been waiting for, not to mention a game I have been waiting for for a decade.
