GamesBeat: "Before you can play as Jameson Locke, you can press “play” to see him. Microsoft and 343 Industries announced Locke as a “pivotal character” in the upcoming first-person shooter Halo 5: Guardians, due in 2015. Tuesday marks your first time to see him in action in the pilot episode of a short digital series with a Hollywood pedigree called “Halo: Nightfall.” The series is only five episodes of roughly 20 minutes each, so executive producer Ridley Scott (Prometheus) and crew had to cover an enormous amount of ground in the pilot for those that might not tune in with Master Chief’s entire history memorized."
How do composers make the iconic music tracks from games that we love? And just what makes them so memorable?
Twitter is blowing up right now
All games coming to PlayStation
Next Xbox will have steam
Next Xbox niche and only for “gamers who want it” (it’s a really powerful pc or a steam deck type portable, or both)
A former 343 developer has revealed that mountains of Halo pitches failed to be approved, including a return to ODSTs and a push for more intimate, dark themes.
Not really. 4, 5, MCC, and Infinite are only remembered for their shortcomings and failures when the franchise was purely known for being a system seller and an all-time great. There's a reason 1, 2, 3, and Reach are looked back on fondly, and it's not because of nostalgia.
I don't know of anyone that speaks fondly of the later Halo games, I would like to play 5, but I know it's not good, and I'm just waiting on Infinite to hit my strike price. I played MCC a lot later after it came out, so must of those bugs/issues were gone by the time I played it.
To say it dropped the massively is just not true. Many in the community hold H5 as the best mp mechanics in the entire series and say its what 4 should've been. Its campaign was trash but the MP is Fantastic and many faces of the community still play today and it only made 500mill in the matter of months but sure it dropped the ball massively. 4 was hated due to all the changes at once. And CoD like feature and rightful get hate but it's campaign story was liked by a majority of ppl. 343 hasn't nailed ot 100% but they get 1 thing perfect but F up in other places. Infinite had a good campaign and design but the story was a mess. The MP improves upon what Halo 3 was and is what many ppl wanted to go back to but it lacked content severely. So massively aint the word. Dropping the ball massively is when it's pure trash and unplay/unenjoyable. Most ppl blind by nostalgia so soon as 1 thing aint the same its hated cause Halo set the bar so high
FYI reach was not that good.
Halo-Pop like Gears Pop. Halo bowling. Halo Cooking Mama. There’s a reason why you won’t hear about them
With its smooth jazz and iconic New Mombasa streets, we need Xbox's next Halo game to return to the remarkable world of Halo 3: ODST.
I know nothing of the Halo series events i'm pretty excited to play all the games.
Do we really need a TV series based on Halo? Is the game world that interesting?
5 episodes 20 mins each? damn, I was hoping for longer and more episodes.
I guess this will be like Forward Unto Dawn, then.
Awesome
I really enjoyed Forward Unto Dawn
Keep it up
Hail to the King baby
