My Review

IMO (yeah... I'm from B.net), it was extremely well done. The non-serious one was friggin' hilarious, and all of the other ones were a Halo-lore fan's wet dream. The music done for them was amazing, and very representative of Marty O'Donnell's work on the franchise.

The only two gripes I have are the female elite design in "The Duel", and the sometimes troubling animation in "The Package".

My personal favourite was the two "Origins" episodes, which gave such insight into the series, and totally hinted at what was to come with the Chief and Cortana (it actually takes place after Halo 3!).

Amazing set (I got the Blu-ray version), and it was totally money well spent. I think more people should see that this presentation isn't just some Halo-milking cash cow, but an amazing look into different sides of the Halo universe that match and at times surpass the novels.

5/5 - Must watch for and Halo fan

I'm a Floodian- It's a terrible disease. That's why you'll notice that I'm always on the off-topic forums here.

Same, pretty much. I'm Navaha there as well as here, if you've seen my posting it's obvious I'm perfectly comfortable with the madness. XD

On an on-topic note, is The Package as dumb as the preview of it on Waypoint made it look? :P

Wow, Bungie.net. I go on all the time, but I'm perma banned :(. Did a bunch of stupid things like claim I was trapped in a mall with zombies (in the flood). I "hijacked" peoples posts and made them talk about pie. (the flood). All of there were 3-10 day bans. The final straw was when I went on the Halo 3 forum and asked if they would add a scoped shotgun so I could pwn the noobs. I regret this now, but it was all in good fun.

And about Halo Legends, yeah, it was amazing. Watched every episode twice regular and once with commentary (my only bonus feature, since I bought the one disc). After beating all the games, reading the books, and watching the anime, (all of which I own) I really want to read the comics. I read The Graphic Novel (dont own it though) and have yet to try out Uprising, Helljumper, Genesis, and Bloodline.

Yeah, I always found that the B.net mods were way to sensitive to banning. I think the B.net forums need to improve their layout a bit too (allow custom avatars and signatures!). But all things considered, I find the aesthetic of it quite relaxing on the eyes (the dim forum background colours), which I always find essential to forums if I'm going to stay there long.

I really appreciate AvPGalaxy's customization options- It's rare to see this much available.

Same although I didn't really enjoy the graphic novel that much.

I did, but I think Evolutions and Legends were much better anthologies.
