  1. What happens when XBL servers shut down for the 360?

     

    What happens when Halo Reach goes dead on the 360 when there isn't a large enough community to play it?

     

    What happens when people move on and forget about Reach entirely?

     

    Porting it will keep it alive for a lot longer. People are still playing Halo: CE today, a game over 13 years old, why do you think that is?

     

    Because it's a better game than Reach ever was?

  2. I'd like to point something out. Are we all familiar with the Legendary Logo for Halo 4? Look at it.

    Well look at this. EDIT: SPOILERS! If you have not read the latest Escalation, and are going to, then don't look at the below picture.

     

     

    no-more.jpgSee how he was stabbed in the eye? look above and he is missing the same eye.

     

     

    What is even more odd is look at the hole in the middle of Didact's forehead on the legendary icon. There's not a hole there in Halo 4. Could it be a bullet hole? A sign of things to come? We'll see... :)

     

    And suddenly the puzzle falls together.

  3. I know the feeling had it two years ago, I was a cartoon I would have had steam coming out of my ear. Got a week off and didn't turn on my computer or tv, I ran, 4 km or 5 km, just clearing my head every day off the week.

     

    I am anxious for your return, but do not rush things, chill out, do stuff you like and let go of all the stress.

    No, but what is the point.


     


    I know everyone who has posted on this topic owns a 360 or at least owned one at some point.


     


    They want to go play Halo 3 and and 2, go play it on the 360.


     


    A port would be a waste of time, we can already play Halo 4? why do we need it.


     


    Its purpose is the problem.  :)


     


     


     


    A Halobox would be an idea, not for now, maybe later. your arguments count for the MCC as well.


  5. Sorry but I'm going to have to push the event back to Sunday the 7th instead of Saturday the 6th, as I have a funeral to attend today. My apologies for the inconvenience.

    EDIT: Errr just realized Blake's event is then, uh... Alright, maybe I can make it earlier today. It will be today, not sure when, I'll update you.

    EDIT 2: I'll do the event next Saturday, sorry guys :c I wanted to play.

     

    I was about to say I couldn't make it due to me being on an event against cancer. So yhe pushback is quite convenient.

  6. To be honest there is just one reason they called it cortana, due to it being a personal assistent which learns by itself, get's smarter with every interaction and can in some cases develop a personality (trials runs had it being incredibly sarcastic.)

     

    The developer of the personal assistent thought it would be a good name, due to it's learning nature and of course Cortanan being part of an MS franchise. 

     

    No milking here.

     

    Edit:

     

    I have been following the development of this smart assistent for around 2 a 3 years now.

  7. The Majority of people here and on the internet have a PC, and even people who don't have the internet have a PC.

     

    You're right, not everyone does, but the majority do.

     

    It's really boring when you play by yourself, but people who play it with friends, it is fun, It's not simply just building houses and making it better as you said.

     

    Around 40 % of the world as of 31 december 2013 use the internet and own a computer. 

     

    WORLD TOTAL
     
    Population (EST.) 2014:              7,181,858,619

    Internet users latest data:           2,802,478,934
     
    penetration (% population):        39.0 %

  8. Not all videogames are recognized as E-sports.

     

    Only the competitive ones really.

     

    I think it was obvious that when I said that, I didn't mean Skyrim, but multiplayer games. If gamers can get a Sports visum for E-sports, I think the world has moved on from the childish view of games.

  9. The difference Is Halo Reach is not coming to Xbox one any time soon, so it is kind of silly to close that since there is no other way to play it, maybe if there is way of porting it to PC or XB1,  But Halo 3 is on the Xbox one now.

     

    Why keep an xbox 360 server of Halo 3, which will have 500, when the Xbox one could have 50,000 at 1 time for MCC, not Simply Halo 3. It wouldn't surprise me at some later point the Halo 4 servers on Xbox 360 shut down, 2-3 years maybe.

     

    Well the thing is, that I really don't think MS will consider Reach a good reason to hold open the servers, Halo 2 isn't on the 360, did that stop them from shutting down xbl original?

     

    I don't even think that Halo is a reason for them to keep supporting it, Halo is just one game and in all honesty, I think MS wants to move as fast as they can away from the 360.

     

    This has to do with business, not Halo.

  10. I see some people that argue that Chief should have remained the same. You know, one liners and talking seldom and stuff like that. I just don't see the appeal of the silent protagonist anymore. It's overdone, and leaves your character with no development. I like Chief more now than I did before. Instead of (Generic underdeveloped Protaginist) fights evil, how about (Developed Character) fights evil and himself.

     

    I liked him before as well, but he was really distant to UNSC in Halo 4 and I think that has to do with the Spartan-IV's, he is rather talkative (incomparison with the other games) with no UNSC around, but starts giving one sentence answers like we are used of him with UNSC around, I think he became more distant towards them, since it isn't the world he left behind in Halo 3.

     

    I think the development of character we saw in Halo 4 was a good step, we like to be the hero, but we also like to affiliate with them. Wolfenstein the new order made that decision really well and even though bBazkowich is a murdering tool of war, he is still human and some of the cutscenes show that.

  11. I don't have Xbox Live so I would love if they had Halo 5 offline friendly, adding some NPC's maybe too so you can play custom games and firefight with others.

     

    I am guessing you mean bots players.  I don't think they will program a complete AI to do so and to make a bot respond in Halo like a player is more difficult than in a game like Call of Duty, So in my opinion there is no chance at all.

  12. Minecraft: It was exciting when I first got it on 360. Played it for days upon days making "The Mansion"

     

    and then it just got realllllly repetitive. Haven't played it since the Halo DLC was released, although that was the last cool thing I saw in the game.

     

    I got bored with it pretty quick, building a house, getting stuff to build a better house, repeat.

  13.  

    6.It wasn´t it made us qustione her very existens and that all things has there set time. It changed the Cheif into a more human soldier instead of a brainwashed 7 year old kid.

     

    He is a broken man, Cortana was the only thing that he actually had left to care for (not knowing some of his old team mates still lived).

     

    It didn't change him into a more human soldier, it changed him into a person, someone we could affiliate with. Because don't forget, we as players have been through his ideals as well.  I think I actually yelled to my TV when the console she was plugged into just disintegrated.

  14. It depends on numbers.

     

    If people buy MCC and the Halo 3 population dwindles further, there's not much reason to keep it on.

     

    It's not like Halo Wars, it's not a 1 of a kind title.

     

    Well it is a numbers game, even if the population of for instance Reach is still high, but if more people own and play on the Xbox one than on the 360, they will in all chance shut it down and focus the gained servers to supporting the xbox one platform. But it could take months if not years.
