almost a complete shower of shit for a decade.
Except for the Windows Phone ones, the rest are pretty ok.
I didnt make this thread to praise 343i. But somehow, there has been a new Halo game every year since ODST.
 
I haven't noticed a yearly Halo related game every year....... Probably because I lost interest since Halo 5. But I'm already hyped for Infinite so I'm keeping an eye on new info. Day one on SX

thinks Halo Infinite is a new graphical benchmark
Halo isn't meant to be a yearly shooter like Call of Duty, next Halo should be a banger though.

Halo Infinite is in development for 5 years with a completely new engine, while COD Black Ops ||||| will be completed in 18 months by release using a variation of the same Quake Engine that they are using since 90s.
One will power your dreams, while the other will make boys out of men.

Its not! The last halo shooter for a console was released almost 5 years (half a DECADE) ago!
Whats your point ?

We know Halo is the bigger game, Call of Duty doesn't want the new engine (which is a shame) and that's why, personally, I give 343 credit on their game engines.

At what point does a game qualify as complete shit based on a metacritic score? 81? 80? Since when is an 8 out of 10 "complete shit"? Go tickle yourself in a corner somewhere.

WTF is this bullshit?
Its been 5 years since the last Halo game (Halo 5 2015).
Actual fans of the franchise know its been the longest wait between titles yet.

"2018 - Halo Fireteam Raven(Dave & Buster's Arcade Game)
2019 - Halo Outpost Discovery(VR Tour)"
I mean really? That shit killed me. Im slayed.

You're slacking OP! :messenger_grinning_smiling: You forgot Halo Recruit, from 2017!



Spartan Strike and Spartan Assault are actually really fun top down twin-stick shooters set in the Halo Universe. In the quick pick-up and play, sub-$10 category that those games occupy, they are a solid 9/10 in my book. The gameplay is solid, the story and cut scenes are interesting, the music is great and the medals and scoring system add some challenge and depth. They are free on Game Pass and the Halo Spartan Bundle is only $5.00 on Steam.

Halo Wars Remastered I wouldn't consider "new".

The last one I've never even heard of.

Also the arcade game I only recently found out about. Didn't even know it was exclusive to Dave and Bustnuts. I don't even know if we have one in my city tbh.

It's nice that most of them have been spin offs and remakes. If they put out a mainline Halo every year I'd vomit.

Hopefully Halo Infinite can bring back the joy I feel playing Halo Reach.

From the outside looking in this series has seemed dead since about 2008. Halo 3 was the last one that felt impactful, ever since then it just feels like milking.

most mainline games have taken their time in development. Halo Infinite has been in development since 2015. I wont call that milking.
