So I loves me some Halo and I decided to give my opinion about Halo 4 the latest chapter in this epic saga. OK I will admit it I was scared about where the franchise would go after Bungie stepped away and 343 stepped in and took over. That fear was misplaced. I was afraid that this game would play differently that it would be a "Halo" game. Again I was mistaken this game plays just like a Halo game. I can move seamlessly from playing Halo 3 and into 4 and not feel like I am trying to relearn how to play a game. The new enemies are amazing and admittedly I am still on my easy run through. I always run through a game on easy for the first play through so that I can focus more on the story and less on trying to survive. After I finish the campaign on easy I will move up and really start to get my teeth wet. The story so far is amazing and the voice acting is even better than in past games.
Something brilliant that Microsoft and 343 did with this was the Forward Unto Dawn series they released through Machinima Prime was a great item to get my mouth watering and get me ready for the game. I don't really want to go into it too much because of the possibility of spoilers.
I haven't had a chance to go through much of the multiplayer modes except for Spartan Ops which was what I was most excited to see and it is amazing. I love the idea of these small ongoing and ever evolving campaigns that keep giving you something fresh to do every week. I do have to admit though that I have heard that so far they are only going to do it for the first 10 weeks after the launch but I hope that they decide to continue it after that period. If anyone happens to stumble on this blog and has any info on if they are going to keep this going please comment. :)
OK so to sum it up this game is amazing and well worth the price. It has everything that we have always loved about Halo and a couple of new things that are sure to be loved just as well. I am hoping to start making these little blog posts a regular thing when new games come out and I have the money to purchase them. The next one I think will probably be on Medal of Honor Warfighters I have been really excited to get my hands on that game and soon I will be able to do just that.
Good Gaming,
