HALO MARRIAGE PROPOSAL HYPE
DROPPED THE RING
PICKED THE RING BACK UP
WE GOT A YES
The Halo PAX stream has been going on all day, mostly with a tournament between the World's best Halo players, and holy *expletive* its been wild to see these people play some remade Halo 2 multiplayer games from the MCC in 1080p and 60 fps. I've had it on my Xbox One and notebook all day like a damned Halo television channel, ahahaha
Intense games, the pace has been mental, insane moments(definitely montage worthy), and just a little while ago was a CLOSE Capture the Flag match between two teams. UUUUUUGH
This is gonna be top
Also, from PAX:
Yeah, I was watching the tourney yesterday and have been watching it today as well.
Amazing plays and fantastic teamwork.
Did you guys just see how that KOTH match ended?! Holy Mother!

Those last thirty seconds between Excellence and Triggers Down was INSANE.
Holy *expletive* that was MENTAL
Three point difference in the last 30 seconds in a King of The Hill game and a WAR over control
THAT was professional play. Good God
OH WAAAT
We're getting a replay of that last game because of a ruling based on the last few seconds
Oh man, Triggers Down getting a lucky break
Edit- Excellence still wins Game 3 with the replay, this time with pure dominance
Excellence with the comeback, down two games, why not win three straight? That was a brutal win at the end there, 50-32 on Lockout Team Slayer.
Too good, too good.
Strongside = Legendary
Strongside = Legendary
No question. Excellence is living up to their name, hahaha
Snipedown=Also top
21 out of the 45 kills of his team in the first game of the final set of the tourney.
Excellence is a hell of a team, goddamn
Edit- In the second game, HOLY *EXPLETIVE*
50 to 49 in Sniper Team Slayer, Excellence JUST getting that game win, now 2 to 0 against VWS
One more game win and Ex are the winners of the tourney, good lord this is hype
Edit- And Excellence dominates game three, taking first place for the Pax Prime 2014 Halo Tourney
No surprise, they were ON POINT today
So when do we average players can get our hands on the multiplayer? ![]()
Well... I don't think there will be a beta for it. Usually they have a 'preorder this and get to play the multiplayer demo' thing. There's no halo game coming out between now and then so unless Microsoft decides they want you to pre-order a different series for a beta.... I'm going to say November.
Seeing all this classic halo hype makes me want an Xbone. First FPS I played seriously was H3 (har har, newb-scrub l2h2) and have always preferred it's gameplay to the ones coming after even if I liked Reach. Seeing H2 on display... Darn. I want it.

When the game releases on November 11th. Though I didn't get day one shipping as I'll be playing the game after I'm done with Inquisition. Maybe I'll change back to day one shipping if I feel like it.

Get an Xbox One. Worth it without a doubt.

I would for Halo... But...
I'm a JRPG guy and Microsoft doesn't get a lot of the games I like. I mean, sure MCC is a great draw but if I'm going to wind up buying one of them for the games I like, it's going to wind up being a PS4. My ideal situation is having a friend with an Xbone and playing MCC when they get it, unfortunately all my friends are sony people.

I wouldn't call that unfortunate. I'd call that lucky, that way you don't miss out on friends if you stick with one console. ![]()
But if you ever do want the MCC, feel free to get an X1.
OH YEAH!
Played Reach for the first time yesterday. Am enjoying my first foray into Halo in years.
Microsoft Explains Why ‘Halo’ Isn’t on PC
Only they don't, not really.
“From a technical standpoint, you look at the architecture of the Xbox One and there are some similarities to the architecture of a modern PC. That certainly makes that sort of cross-platform development easier. But beyond that the ease goes away. Master Chief Collection is massive. We have to coordinate four games, 100-plus maps, a lot of new cinematics, and Halo 2 Anniversary.”
Microsoft, your "renewed PC focus" is on the line here. ![]()
