Yes, 343 is untrustworthy and will put the final nail in the Halo universe 37%
NO, they have learned their lessons and probably will have improved. 63%

It will sell because really halo is why a lot of people got xbones, but I dont know if it will be good. Halo 4 in my opinion wasnt as good as the bungie made halo games

Didn't know they'd made a bad game, as far as I was aware they made the mistake of launching MCC before it was fully baked. I'm also pretty sure that Microsoft told them to release regardless, likely some hedge fund investors wanting their profits and the consumers be damned.

I have faith because there is absolutely zero way MS will screw up the franchise after the disaster that was MCC. They will not make the make mistake twice.

I have yet to turn on my xboxone since halo 5 beta. If they fail with Halo 5, I am just going to sell it and be done with it.

Well Halo 5 won't be bugging and broken probably given the dev time and the Halo MCC issue, however Halo 4 had neither of those and outside of Halo MCC, it's the lowest rated Halo FPS game.

MCC flopped mightily here in our meta game. Do I play it? yes Does it work online? Awesomely. But it was hyped a 9 and scored a 6 here so it flopped

Nah, Halo 5 will be good. TC is just jelly.

how do you know we haven't seen any campaign footage and the multiplayer didn't feel groundbreaking

Yep like 10 months before launch with E3 like 2 months away and you are complaining about seeing nothing.

remember what happened last time microsoft waited for e3 sony announced stuff early and while microsoft sat around for e3 and then had to quickly announce stuff cuz ppl were gttin hyped for ps4

its not good to just set times an wait, you gotta do your own marketing, look at avengers and marvel they bring stuff to comic con but they also do there own things and don't bank on it they show off stuff all the time cuz there product is good

ppl who dont show off stuff imo haven't found there way yet and are lost imo

You have to be a teenager

I think it will depend on whether or not 343 has learned their lesson and actually does a large public beta before releasing the game.

Hopefully not it the only game I'm buying for X1 this year it looks like.

Well Fable Legends is FREE. You didn't get Ori yet? No Tomb Raider for you? So sad.

That is sad.....Ori is amazing....people are using their One wrong.

I got Ori for PC and I already said I would get Tomb Raider for X1, probably the CE.

Oh okay....you're good then :P

We still need to play something too!

Yes we do....I have BloodBorne and MLB The Show 15 on the PS4 lol.....I'm not playing much on the One right now ( except NBA 2K15 ) after beating the excellent Ori.

We can try The Show, even though you'll prob smoke me :P

Yeah exactly... I don't understand how people can say H4 flopped? It was a great game.

Anyway, I'm sure H5 will be awesome.

I couldn't give less of a rats ass about the System Wars meta game when it comes to quality or rating of a game. Shoehorning your entire faith and determination of a game on the thoughts and opinions of a single individual is idiotic, it's amazing that this even took off as a thing around here. Even listening to what is said on Metacritic is idiotic as their interests might not even line up with your own, but at least with more people you can get a better and more objectively rational idea as to what is really the case surrounding a game.

well if someone takes it that serious they are out of touch, but I just hate seeing the term "flop" used when its definition is pretty specific

MCC wasn't too bad other than the online and I don't think they'd make that mistake again, I believe they will make the game the true Halo game people were hoping for.

What have they released to garner the hype they get? They picked up the Halo franchise after Bungie was done with it and the series hasn't been the same since. They messed up the coop on the original Halo Anniversary Edition with unbearable amounts of lag online, Halo 4 online was dead within weeks and it just didn't feel like Halo anymore, The atmosphere and story just felt off compared to previous games. MCC online has been a joke and I know lems say it's fixed now, but i still have trouble getting into a room with friends, I still have to wait too long for match making, and the coop gets very laggy. The Halo 5 Beta felt more like CoD than Halo. Destiny feels more like Halo than the Halo 5 Beta.

I hope they have improved, but as of now, Halo 5 isn't day one for me. I won't be fooled by 343 and the media hype again. Fool me once shame on me for thinking that Halo Combat Evolved online coop would be flawless like Halo 3, fool me twice, it must be because I bought into the Halo 4 hype train, Fool me a 3rd time, I admit I'm a Halo fan and had high hopes for MCC and never thought it could be messed up at launch, fooling me a 4th time isn't an option 343, it just isn't. I wish Bungie still had the halo franchise because in my eyes, 343 is doing everything they can to ruin it. Fanboys are getting all hyped over 2 live action commercials, i just don't get it anymore. Prove yourselves 343, because to me, you've only proven that you aren't capable of handling the Halo franchise with the respect it deserves.

The recent state of Halo games has made me a bit sad. I bought my X1 for Halo, so it troubles me that one of my favorite franchises is going downhill. I know I'll get flack for speaking against Halo, but it's how I feel about it at this point.

*applause*

@PAL360 said:

343i have lots of potential.

Not only Halo 4 was very good (better than Bungie's ODST and Reach), it was also one of the best looking last generation games.

Heck yeah, Halo 4 looked phenomenal running on a 7 year-old piece of hardware.

graphics don't make a gaem fun especially when they don't have the similiar feel

Are you high?

@ProtossX said:

halo 3 to halo 4 graphics 343 DIDNT capture the same feel the alien don't look as fun at all an look dark an ugly halo 4 sucked all the fun outa the franchise period

Ugly aliens are well-designed aliens as far as I'm concerned.
