I just noticed that arstechnica.com is reporting that Microsoft will talk about 2 new Halo games that will be released this year as part of their 2009 CES keynote. http://arstechnica.com/journals/microsoft.ars/2009/01/04/ces
Two new Halo games this year.
"Sir_Ragnarok said:Wow, yeah. I legitimately forgot about that terrible title."Halo Wars.IT"S ODST NOT RECON! OMGZ WTF?"
Recon.
The obvious two, guys. Come on."
"2?
Arent they rushing things a bit?"
Not at all.
Two different developers, one is halo wars- ensemble (RIP soon), and recon- bungie
One is a RTS and another a shooter that's sort of different from most shooters apparently that's more of an expansion pack- new campaign, two map packs for halo 3, new skulls, and "other suprises"
"Optiow said:"2?

ODST, maaan...
ODST.

ODST."
Not how I say it.
When referencing the game alone, it's Recon, but when I reference the full name it's Halo 3: ODST.
It sounds, weird, but it makes sense. I guess I just don't think an acronym should stand on it's own. You think it'd stand for the title (when in reality the title is an acronym)
But you know what's funny. Halo 3 was the "last" halo game. That being said, there's Halo 3: ODST (recon), Halo Wars, and the two episodes from PJ and payton (from wingnut) still to come. Something tells me the halo universe isn't going anywhere. It's fine by me as long as it stays quality and doesn't become rehashes.
yeah, 2 games the majority of gamers who aren't halo fanboys don't give a shit about. im sure odst will be sweet, but come on. but seriouslly, these are like the only two games that look good on 360 this year....whats up with that.

Are you fucking kidding me?
Umm... these games are probably going to be the top 2 selling games this year...
And ones from Bungie, a high AAA game developer and the other from Ensemble, a AA-AAA RTS developer
And as far as 360 games go:
- Halo ODST
- Halo Wars
- Star Ocean 4
- Tekken 6
- Alan Wake
- Street Fighter 4
-Kingdom of Fighters
- Resident Evil 5
- Dark Void
- Bionic Commando
Ps3s is
- Killzone 2
- Infamous
- Heavy Rain
- Street Fighter 4
- Tekken 6
- Kingdom of Fighters
- Resident Evil 5
- Dark Void
- Bionic Commando
- GT5 (i laugh if you think this is coming out this year)
- GOW3 (look at GT5)
That's not half bad. And it's not like we know the whole lineup.
All I can say is that the first couple months look spectacular for the 360. Seeing as how they're "going all out' at E3, I'd imagine they are holding a lot back.
