It would complete 343's stepping away from bungie and making halo "theirs".
Locke as main character, probably kill the arbiter, more shoving palmer down our throats. Less Halo.
Thanks! I'm excited for y'all to read it.
This gave me chills

Sweet. Hope preorder info gets put up too.
Never thought about that. Could be interesting.
$20 says that time travel will be instituted one way or another within the next few games.
Okay, okay, I'll try to stop, but I'm listening to the Halo 2 OST for the first time in like 8 years and it's amazing. Here's another one:

Yeah probably just going to do away with the LAN party portion since there doesn't seem to be remotely enough interest in that. I'll wait to do this until it becomes fully apparent that the LAN thing isn't happening after launch. I need to get a mod to change the title (unless I can change it myself?) and I'll convert (confirt? really life?) Post 2 into a section based on players' usual time zones that they play in, probably in 4-hour increments.
That will of course require everyone that has posted in it already to revisit it and state which time slot they play in the most.
Also does anyone know specifically where Chips Dubbo makes his appearance in Halo:CE? I seem to recall him in the level 'Halo' (Mission 2) but I'm not entirely certain since it's been sooooo long. (working on the achievement walkthrough atm)
Listening to ODST's soundtrack. Possibly the most underrated OST. I feel at peace.
Siege of Madrigal is still the number one Halo track of all time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7iy6p1jKb8

If Chief & Locke had a baby and that baby became an ODST rookie for an all new halo odst game i will cry.

I'm going to miss profiles in Halo 2. I liked having characters at different checkpoints that I could load up at will. Honestly I've missed that feature in every game since Halo 2.
As ridiculous as this is, it's a shame we'll probably never get an ODST style game again :/
EDIT: Going to bed at roughly 2200 characters into the OT. Goodnight all.
Welcome to the club. This was an annoyance with CEA as well.
There's nothing quite like the spit on the reed of a saxophone mouthpiece being used as an analogue for the tears shed in the desecration of what we call home and a reinforcement of our internal loneliness.
Are you a writer for Pitchfork?
I don't know what Pitchfork is.
I was just a sax player once, for a while, in a place I no longer belong to.
It's a kind of pretentious website that reviews music.
If another ODST game is out of the question, then at least let me enjoy this masterpiece in 1080p 60fps. Or maybe 343 will surprise us with an equally impressive spin-off.

So just got back from shooting this Halo Promotion with MS and their PR Firm.
Got covered in make up, which was an interesting experience to say the least. Sadly, I was not allowed to wear my HaloGAF tshirt, due to whoever designed it (Letters?) being able to then sue MS for intellectual property rights.
They made me change out of my work shirt and jumper (as gamers are not allowed to look like they have a job) and made me wear a hoody instead, which I thought was kinda weird.
Video airs on October 27th on Youtube, Xbox.com, XO Dashboard, and IGN.
Was forced to sing a halo theme tune and do a grunt impression. Was also asked to say "EPIC!" a lot.
Was a fun think to take part in nonetheless - no swag sadly, but have got an invite to the November 10th Launch in London, maybe I'll get swag there!

I thought MCC releases 14th in EU?

I thought that too - but they definitely said November 10th. Maybe they're making a worldwide release?
Haven't played Halo since the original over a decade ago. It was good fun playing a friend's houses but I didn't have an Xbox (though I borrowed one a few times).
This game seriously makes me wanna pick up an Xbox One once I can find one cheap enough though. I feel I've missed out. Plus, reading through this makes me feel the Halo community is batshit insane, so that can be fun too.

You have no idea. lol
Thread got locked like 2 times, because we went too crazy. I don't think it will happen again, though. People will actually have something to play now.

This post reads as they told me to take my clothes off, do grunt noises and finish with shouting 'epic'.
At least there wasn't any dodgy lighting or smooth jazz, right? right?

It was a Halo Fanfiction shoot written by a 13 year old boy.
I play Dustin Echoes, a photocopier repair man who meets a sexy blue lady who wants to break ALL the rules.
In theatres Fall 2014.

There's a start for your list mate.
I tri-tip is a kind of steak. It's a reference to the 'Steak Dinner', which became a Medal you could earn by winning by a large margin over the opponents, I think by more than 20 points, if you looked at your profile on Bungie.net for the later Halo games. I can't recall if it began with Halo 3 or Reach, but I want to say it was Halo 3. The medal wasn't awarded in-game, only on your profile on Bnet. The medal itself was actually an homage to the 'steak dinner' challenge within the Bungie offices, wherein employees would play against each other and if the losing team lost badly enough (or was it whoever lost period?.... irrelevant) had to buy the winners a 'steak dinner'. Although IIRC the 'steak dinner' usually ended up being pizza or something, lol, although a few actual steak dinners did take place if memory serves.
Yes, I've probably followed Halo/Bungie too closely over the years, although not nearly as closely as some have.

Fantastic.
The lack of an official MCC collectors edition bothers me
Right!? What gives? At least give us the Mjolnir Edition. Why is it GAME exclusive..
Oh I know about Lukes Steak Dinner. Didn't know it was a reference to it, though. Thanks for the very long explanation, though.
I ate that a lot, when my parents had a Restaurant.

Missed the first few pages... why must I sleep? WHY?
Anyway, OP is merely bad, instead of eye-bleedingly awful. Good job, Fracas!
Halo.
