Is Halo 4 the greatest love story in gaming this gen? *spoilers*

One hit wonder? Maybe in terms of SP. But dat MP? Sogood.DarkLink77

I say yes, and the ending made me cry. I haven't cried in years, and never to a video game.

[QUOTE="DarkLink77"][QUOTE="jg4xchamp"] There is no reason to yell, you being wrong is an expectation.

As far as it stands it might as well have been a Bungie game, because on a purely gameplay level nothing really separates the two. The kicker is presentation stuff, and on that side 343 is a little bit better. The only thing I could see being slightly different is that 343 through in some more guided scenarios than Bungie.

MP wise it comes with enough upsides that it makes up for it.

As it stands one is a glorified one hit wonder(bungie) is a f*cking tribute band to that one hit wonder.FrozenLiquid

Agreed and agreed. Stepping away from the Chief was one of the best things they ever did. They also told significantly better stories in those games.

I actually really like Marathon. It's aged, but it's still remarkably playable.

Can't touch up on Myth, not into RTS games like that. But Marathon was fun action game when? never. Exactly. [QUOTE="DarkLink77"]One hit wonder? Maybe in terms of SP. But dat MP? Sogood.jg4xchamp

I thought we were knocking Bungie for having weak single player campaigns i.e compelling narrative-driven missions. There's legit points on a lot of the issues Bungie has had with the Halo sequels' single player stuff. Being fun action games isn't one of them.

Lol yeah, like lems said Gears of war 2 Maria scene was sad :lol:. Don't even have to watch it myself, guess it's corny as fvk.rjdofu

[QUOTE="FrozenLiquid"][QUOTE="DarkLink77"] Do tell, as I am interested in Black Ops II's campaign. DarkLink77

You both need to play Black Ops 2's campaign right neow. I'm curious to hear your opinions on it. I thought it was pure f*cking greatness, and pretty much the exact opposite of the online multiplayer which is becoming quite the headache with all of it's lagging and disconnects and typical Treyarch bullsh*t.

Is this going to be a repeat of Gears of War 2 where a bunch of fanboy's blinded by hype thought the story was emotional and then after a short while when the hype died down they realised how terrible the story actually was?

[QUOTE="DarkLink77"][QUOTE="jg4xchamp"] And that's exactly what it is. Treyarch proving to the masses that when they flex their muscle they can deliver on a heart pounding, barn burning, pedal to the medal, world cIass, one of a kind work of excellence that just isn't achieved in shooters these days beyond wonderful works like Resistance 2 and Vanquish. jg4xchamp

Haven't played Halo 4, don't need to.

With the new gen having started with the release of the Wii U, isn't it time that these threads be moved to the Legacy Platform forum?

Seriously people, nothing against Halo 4, its good fun, but the story is definetly not one of its strong points, its as cliche and as straightforward as it gets, and thats fine, Halo has never been about the narrative...

Learn what??? Nobody buys a Halo game because of its great story, heck, plenty of people dont even play single player...
