There's something awesome about seeing them all together like that. Also Last Light arrived yesterday. I'm still reading a Trek novel atm though so it'll have to wait.

[Randomizer]

Got my copy of Last Light too. Does anybody see Chief's hand is shaking?

There was another video too, same mission, but only gameplay.

And that video...and previews popping in... my body was not ready for this. Time to retreat. 

EDIT: Hunt the Truth Season 2. I miss the creepy music.

Their page has changed too. Another nod to Kilo-Five. 

[Corporal Hicks]

I thought I saw him shaking too. Are reviews coming in?

[Randomizer]

Nah. My mistake, just previews.

[Randomizer]

Game is 46.17 GB big. The Blu-ray disc is 45 GB.

And another episode of HTT. Poor Ben.  I'm going to cry in a corner now.

Queuing to play at EGX now.

2 hours + and I'm nearly at the front of the queue. f**king joke.

[Corporal Hicks]

So after 2 hours and 45 minutes I finally got to play the game. It was Wargames, the same level that has been shown at all the other conventions. I really liked it. Obviously I didn't get to play with all the abilities but those that were there I really enjoyed. Still felt distinctively Halo but fresh.

[Randomizer]

Good to hear it's still Halo-like.

What do we get today? Another trailer teaser commercial !

Giving chills on the spine since 2001.  We get to see a Halo ring and a station orbiting it, and is that Chief Mendez (the old man with the proestethic arm)?

Anyway, I like how this is aimed also at casual players, who know nothing but that Chief is the hero. And that would work very well with the teaser, since, that's also the only thing outer colonies civilians know.

  EDIT: Look at the date. Something's on to it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We also get another of those recordings (MC is in) : http://huntthetruth.tumblr.com/tagged/s2

And there was an article stating that 343 is already working on Halo 6 (writing and general story) and that they already decided how Chief's story will end. If I were you, I'd keep my fingers crossed...

[D. Compton Ambrose]

So, the Master Chief is dead.

[Randomizer]

The cake news is are a lie. Do you think 343 would kill MC with debris? Pffft !

     It's most probably ONI propaganda. Also, the date was wrong. It's not 2560, it's 2558. Most probably a mistake made by them, but I like how they fixed it canon-wise. http://40.media.tumblr.com/d0d85d0624b9f4c67092bc77feb9dfe0/tumblr_nvg4r2kO901uokpa1o1_1280.png

  <<HALO NEWS>>

    "Today we are happy to announce some good news for Halo 3 fans. 343i has announced the return of the Missile Pod and CE Pistol! Now everybody can relive their memories of locking onto banshees and badass music blasting on "NMPD Headquarters" , or obliterating things with the Pistol !

      More news coming soon. Franklin out."

   <Commercials>

EDIT: Hunt the Truth Season 2 Episode 2 (http://huntthetruth.tumblr.com/). Don't believe the lies.

Be happy people, we got another live-action trailer ! The Chief ain't dead !

Spoiler

Featuring Osiris, Blue Team and...is the narrator Mendez?

[Ratchetcomand]

I hear Halo 5 is rated T now? The series was never that violent and bloody to begin with if you ask me. Not to mention they have a toy line for kids (Mega Blocks).

[Randomizer]

Yes. I find it sometimes hard to believe that it's going to be the "darkest Halo game" with the rating T. Still, I agree, gore and violence is not needed.

[PVTDukeMorrison]

The only reason Halo 1-3 were rated M was because of the Flood, you could see exposed bones/organs and that pretty much guarantees an M rating from the ESRB. Still doesn't explain ODST though

I always thought the Master Chief would make one helluva antagonist/antihero. This is going to be the best Halo since Combat Evolved (my favorite).
