wait so oculus is going to be making their own games for the rift? anything + john carmack + (part of)valve + halo art director always equals amazing
It's like they're taking all the best people of gaming into one godlike team.
Eh Halo 4 kinda buggered up the art style of Halo
Half Halo of Doom game incoming

[QUOTE=Katatonic717;44813786]I dunno, but Halo4 utterly ruined the art direction every other Halo game had.[/QUOTE] It's too bad, because I really liked the new sounds they had for everything. (Especially the Warthog and Assault Rifle).

Which did kind of show. To bad the rest of the art direction in Halo 4 was poop.
SUPER misleading title. Not the art halo's famous for (which came from the work of Shi Kai Wang, among others iirc)
[QUOTE=Mellowbloom;44812644]Eh Halo 4 kinda buggered up the art style of Halo[/QUOTE] Yes, but it wasn't a bad art direction, just wasn't Halo.
Look up the stuff the guy did before Halo 4. He's got a distinct style and I'd strap anything that dude puts together on my head, no fucking lie.
