It should be painfully obvious what this post is about. It's a celebration of the final HALO game. I've been a fan ever since playing HALO: CE when it was first released. It was the reason I bought an XBOX. I was obsessed from the start. The story grabbed me, the gameplay compelled me, the music inspired me, the visuals dazzled me.
This final game is a sad and happy thing. It marks an ending, and yet it also marks the culmination of everything Bungie have done with this series. With every new game came a new innovation, and this game combines everything into one extremely refined package. So raise a glass! Innovation and a willingness to create thoughtful and compelling games has won out over trying to get as much out of the series of possible. The questions are what makes us play. We come for the game, we stay for the lasting impact.
I'll be back very soon with a comprehensive 'first impressions' post. This game has rekindled my desire to blog, and blog I shall!
