I was watching QFT epidsode on Gamespot, and Tom Mcshea brought up a very interesting point.

Whatever the old Halos were, they are over. This is now a new game given into the hands of an "unproven developer" with nothing on their history. This could very much mean that Halo 4 could be a Big F*ck up.

Alot of other people agree with this, yet some lemmings will say...bu bu the secretary for some other game is now on the project. what do you think SW, Discuss how Halo 4 will fail, or will it be another mediocore shooter with the only exclusive online option for lemmings who are pretty much forced to say its the best.

nah considering a lot of the core staff from the original trilogy are working on it and 343 have proven themselves to be capable when control of reach was hander over to them.

It wont fail, only silly cows want it to fail cause lets be honest they have no games this year.

/inb4 mad cow disease rampage.

I'm sure the game will do fine. The muitplayer while abit changed..still looks enjoyable and it looks like halo 4 might actually have decent writing. Don't care what any halo fan tells me;Halo Reach's storyline and writing was terrible. Bungie spent months hyping the story saying that it was meant to be very emotional or an "human story"..yet they just did what they always have done..skip character development in fear of boring the fanbase.

It could fail, but then again the same could be said of any game. Diablo 3, Infamous 2, and Forza 4 show us that nothing is set in stone.

I think it's unlikely that it will fail though. Just my gut instinct.

Aren't the people who have tested saying that it could be the best Halo yet? Not sure where I saw or heard that, but I'm thinking I remember it.

All they have to do is Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V Halo 3's MP and they are set. From the ranked playlists to the maps and maybe add new weapons.

the game is halo, yes there has been changes made but for the good, but nothing to make it a new game.

The part with the "unproven devs" Well lets say yes, BUT 343 was bought on solo purpose for halo. They didn't go out and buy a pree studio and said OK now your working on halo. 2: IF u ever seen 343 open jobs posting the requirement's is 5 years of experience and must have worked on AAA game. 3: it's Microsoft baby, Do you really think they let some low class devs ruin that for them?

mlg players got first dipps to play the game and they all pretty much came out saying halo is back in bussiness from the crap reach did

Halo has lost a lot of popularity, partly because of cod. Ms is hyping the game like crazy--more than any halo game since 2. At this point if it doesn't achieve cod like sales, itis a failure in a lot of ways.

I am glad there is another company making Halo 4. I liked Reach, but when I play it I think to myself "Halo has become stale". I am looking forward to seeing what new blood will bring to the franchise.

well it seems microsoft disagrees, they are already looking for a new dev for next gen halo according to GS. they know 343 was just a temporary whip-up of unemployed losers who couldnt find work making real games on real dev teams. halo 4 is nothing but a windows 8 additional funding program.

Huh? This one is being hyped much more for the sole reason that Xbox has no games.

huh? no idea whats giving you that idea. Also it's foolish to think that an exclusive can outsell a game that is on 3 platforms.

I don't think it will the game will flop at all. It looks great from what I've seen. Will it sell like the modern warfare franchise? Highly doubt it but it's gonna do really well.

They could as well change nothing in gameplay from the code they already have from Halo 1-2-3-Reach and be fine

I dont see how you can go wrong starting with a perfect game as base and playing safe

Even the worst developer could make a stunning Halo game when he can have all the code from the previous games in his disposal

It is not like they are staring everything from scratch

And frankly 343 seems way more capable than Bangie, at least in graphics they have surpassed Halo Reach by generations visually, Halo 4 looks like a next gen game and better than all PS3 coming games combined, i dont see anything "unproven" about them really

So you're saying they should do an Activision and just release the same game over and over again?

I liked Halo CE, it wasn't amazing but it was a good game. Halo Reach got boring incredibly quickly, it was a bellow average game. This is the same problem the CoD games have, CoD4 was good and then it just got worse from there due to them not improving enough over the previous games.

I know some people who have warmed up to the new changes, they didn't like the previous instalments because to them it plays on rails. They will lose some fans but gain more new players I think. I never got the whole Halo hype, the story is okay but the game is so boring.

I disagree I think Halo 4 will be fine because they have ex Bungie guys and they know about the franchise, though the MP seems like Space COD to me.

Fail? No, I dont see that! The bulk of the 343 dev staff are former Bungie employees and are very familiar with the Halo series. The bigger question in my mind is if the series is simply too long in the tooth? In my mind, the new multiplayer that was introduced in Reach ruined the classic Halo feel. I for one am not a fan of the Armor abilities. In particular I feel the jetpack is something that simply doesnt belong in a FPS game. Again, like everyone likes to say, "if it aint broke, dont fix it"! For me, Halo as a series lost me after Halo 3!! I would probably come back to the series multiplayer if they would offer a "barebones" type playlist that would allow for all gametypes without all of the armor abilities. If I want fancy power up to make me invisible or allow me to fly, ill go play UT!!

And the damage control for the 15.000.000 selling Halo 4 that will render anything else obsolete continues

And this is only the begining, soon this forum will be flooded with posts about how crap Halo X is and how terribly Halo 4 will fail

The desparation has reached maximum levels, i never though people would start the damage control so early

But was expected since Halo 4 will not just have the perfect gameplay, but also looks like a next gen game this time, the ultimate anihilator game, noone will even know what PS3 is after that game is out

That's a bit of a moot point, that 343 is unproven. It's not often a developer is given all the tools, the universe, the lore, the history, etc. They've got a few unusual advantages.

Indeed, it is one of the cases where they would have to actually try hard to break the game and by the graphics they have pulled out, i dount they are that bad of a developer, in fact lately i have come to think they are one of the best around
