@RecSpec:Sounds like it would be more like playing it safe if they just used characters fans already knew since they could count on fans of the old games coming back in that scenario, it's more ballsy for them to have three unknown protagonists.

@John1912:The Halo games never seem to have many problems on release that I can think of, Bungie always seem good with that sort of stuff, kind of interesting to see if it goes as smoothly with 343 in charge (not that I want it to go wrong since I'm getting it myself at launch)

I was scared of Mars Attacks when it came out, specifically the scene when they first start attacking (with that title I should have seen it coming) and one of the soldiers is shot with a ray guy and is slowly burnt away to a skeleton. I think it may have been Jack Black's character in the film thinking about it, I think the weirdness of it all just sort of freaked me out.

I watched it again a couple years ago and while it is certainly still a pretty bizarre film I didn't find it in anyway scary (it is a comedy after all) and enjoyed it quite a lot.

I hope I get an A

Looks like Butler just got served.

@Butano:It was Tommy from Team Meat who had the little rant about CoD and Halo not Phil Fish, but I agree it would have been better if he was given time to explain that view point instead of just dismissing more mainstream games without any real reason.

@medacris: From what I heard it's not going to be the same universes like the disney one and that and more like they are jumping to things related to past episodes, that's what I remember reading at least, I could be wrong. The screenshots so far seemed to be linked with the amish related episode they did recently.

This sounds like the start of some sort of creepypasta story, if your friend goes back to the shop and it's mysteriously disappeared then I advise that he should burn the games.

@Chavtheworld: It seems all of next years big games are coming out early next year though, before E3.

I never get people complaining about how pointless achievements are, they are just some extra incentive to play a bit differently, challenge yourself or finish game when you would otherwise give up. Unless you are playing something educational or some sort of professional video game guy then the only point to playing games at all is for fun so looking into a feature and expecting much of it than that is kind of silly.

Personally I still quite enjoy them, some of the best mometns I had playing the Halo games were had trying to finish their more challenging achievements (like beat the final level with everyone on ghosts) so as long as developers keep them interesting I'll always give them a go.
