i kind of agree with gamesradar, the single player campaign after having played it all is definitely great but not as good as halo 3s
Dude are you okay?! Halo 3's campaign was the worst piece of sh*t I have ever played in a video game to date. Repetitive, lame, childish and extremely annoying. Reach offered alot more variety, especially with the armour abilities and the new weapons. Not to mention the awesome story telling. (sm1)

@shyber, if the ban hammer isn't out, you can go online in the meantime and play whatever you want. Something i wanna point out is that the last banhammer was the biggest one we've seen yet. More consoles were banned during that time than ever before. We can't really speculate anything regarding the banhammer that might potentially come during the next few days, or during the release of Black-ops...

Oh and....

Heh thanks. But I can't say I've liked Reach to the point of using its wallpapers :D
Really cool stuff for the Halo Nation though.

the new design of the spartans is very gears of war in itself, their armor looks like the carmine suits from gears with added color patterns

@Chandoo Its not a new desgin!!! :lol:

All those spartans (except Jorge) are rocking the Mark 5 Mjolnir Armor lol....The one we had in Halo 1. They reason they look a bit more bulky is because they have some additional armor parts attached. Some of which we saw in Halo 3 (Multiplayer) as well.

The Gears of War-ish tone about the game is mainly due to the darker story, and the exceptional detailing on the Noble Team characters is because its a more grounded, intimate story and bungie wanted to make the characters stand out and try to have the player appreciate them as the battle progressed....There is alot more attention to the characters this time (y)

Edit:

Oh cool release screens! ^_^

I just realized something lol, major spoilers

Spoiler: show
the beat up helmet you see when you start the campaign is YOUR helmet, not some random spartan helmet for effect, it's the same shot as the very end of the game. I didn't notice it before but after I customized my spartan's helmet a bit and started the campaign to see the intro I noticed the beaten up helmet had changed too

    PS 5 Pro announced today. While I was impressed with the value - 4K at 60 FPS in quality mode for recent games, the price is too high. PS4 Pro cost just $399 at launch. The price of the PS5 Pro version seems to show Sony is returning to its haughty attitude of the PS3 era. I think the console with a disk drive will cost $1000-$1200 in Pakistan. For most, PC gaming onlyis increasingly becoming a more attractive proposition.

    They could have shipped all these SP sequels on PC as well. But they wanted a piece of the PC market AND the live service market at the same time. I think that turned out a bit too much for them.

    Aside from this, Sony and PS5 could have been great even with sequels to existing games like Ghost of Tsushima, Uncharted, GOW, TLOU, Infamous, LBP/Sackboy, maybe dead ones like Resistance, Jak, etc. It seems that they've been trying to focus on the live service model instead at the cost of SP games and exclusivity. It hasn't worked out well (except for Helldivers 2) and most of this gen is over. I don't see the point of this divergence from their established brand and strategy, especially at the cost of new SP games, few of which will now see the light of day this gen.

  • SolitarySoldier SolitarySoldier:
    Sure, big shots like RDR2 and Elden Ring are also great and I love them as much as the next person but at some level, I feel like I can get something close to that in movies and TV. There's something unique about great platformers in terms of stress-free/joyful interactivity and immersion that a heavy story or challenging gameplay doesn't have. Again, the latter is great too but the former more accurately defines gaming for me.
    Link
  • SolitarySoldier SolitarySoldier:
    Astro Bot will redeem PS5 for me. Ratchet and Astro Playroom did it as well. I may have a preference for platformers but this kind of pure fun games is what gaming started out as and what remains the most enjoyable part of it for me.

    Yeah, Concord & Suicide Squad were utter failures due to being woke as hell. These western devs keep digging their own graves. They don't get the message that the masses don't want woke nonsense in games (or any other entertainment medium for that matter). Japanese games are less woke than American ones, but they're still not completely woke-free because they mostly target American audience. If you want truly unwoke content, try Chinese & Korean games. Black Myth: Wukong & Steller Blade are two of the biggest hits in gaming recently, and they came from China & Korea respectively. They're all the rage these days & completely free from this woke nonsense. I reckon American studios have no future in gaming unless they change their ways. Asian studios on the other hand are on the path to success. Not only is this great for gamers in general. It is also great for us Asians. :cool:

    Also, it's not just Capcom. Almost all Japanese devs are doing a stellar job and keeping the gaming world alive - FromSoft, Namco, and Nintendo. American/European developers have turned a blind eye to what gamers want and solely focus on squeezing maximum amount from gamers. They suck!

  • L LegacyGamerGuy:
    I believe Sony America should shut down and converted to Sony Japan. Then we can expect good quality games and not woke propaganda. One of the reasons for failure of Concord as per Reddit comments is woke/gay characters with they/them pronouns. Same is the reason Overwatch 2 has been a failure - they are targeting the wrong target market.
