And I here thought Halo wasn't good enough to warrant a Xbone purchase on it's own.
That statue reminded of that one gmod machinima involving john freeman.
Can't remember the full name though.
On topic: Wtf happened to chief armor.
Who wants to explain to me what is going on in a pm? All I played of Halo 4 was to some forrunner place and met the giant ball man and this planet im on is actually a giant ship that had a wormhole send a UNSC ship in and im trying to stop the forerunner guy.

Halo 4 [sp]cortana died due to AI corruption that happens to every AI in halo so now MC goes apeshit and emo due to losing the only person he really trusted[/sp]
halo 5 no one really knows much about but apparently MC did something very stupid.
Heh, I was watching the newest trailer from a few months ago earlier wondering when there would be some more trailers out.
Pls don't kill off the chief tho

Not 100% sure here, but I think the plot is something like:
Chief has gone missing after Halo 4. UNSC figures he's gone rogue and is a potential threat considering how badass he is, so they send this dude Locke and his team of spartans to look for him and possibly kill him.

They probably assumed he [sp]ran off to join the now rogue Spartan program head to try an get cortana back or something also sorta fishy that he dissappears after bringing forerunner man to earth to fuck up new new Mombasa but w/e. He p much just ruined everything by waking up ancient evil vampire man so humanity probably doesn't appreciate him[/sp]
And Master Chief.

I wonder if the story is going to be one of those ones where everyone thinks Chief is doing the wrong thing but actually it turns out to actually be the right thing

Huh, was that the Infinity burning in the sky?
If so, fucking awesome, can't believe 343 managed to turn a [i]space ship[/i] into a freakin' mary sue.
This makes me wonder if there are two different playable storylines. Not branching or alternating, just straight up choosing who you want to play as.
I have a feeling it will be like Halo 2

Uh that's not how it happened she turned into a bridge
[sp] you can rate that dumb but she literally turns into a bridge and kills herself in Halo 4 [/sp]
Halo 5 looks stupid already.
The story should have just stopped being about MC past 3. As far as I'm concerned [sp]the wreck drifted forever and/or right into a sun where it disintegrated.[/sp]
Pretty sure we will be playing as both Locke and Chief considering it hints at the "two sides to every story" thing that's been said for some time now. Ok now to pre order this before it comes out towards the end of the year, and more darker in the series? Count me in.
Locke probably does bad things and blames it on master chief to make him look like a monster "completing his mission".

[sp]All of the 343 games are a nightmare MC has while in cryo[/sp]
the trailer is supposedly pc graphics oh wait
holy shit those two trailers make me want to play it so bad. uggggh. i love the halo cutscenes, i've watched all of them strung together as movies and loved them.

all the important stuff is shoved into novels and comic books that no one will read
I seriously hate this shit. They did it with Bungie's original games, but the main trilogy had enough story where you could catch what was going on.

Instead of making Reach, Bungie should have just made a Halo 4 and tied up the series so well that it would be impossible to continue.
This reminds me of Prototype 2 honestly. But Im hyped, this looks awesome.
Can someone like make a mega post explaining the important bits of halo 4 and like the comics and books? I played halo 4 but according to what I'm hearing I feel like I missed a bunch of stuff.

Cortana had AI Space Cancer and it seems like that's all you need to know for this.

Im writing this at 4am half-asleep so sorry if it's incoherent and doesnt help explain anything. i tried to link things that im talking about so i help make more sense.
the bottom half is spoilered by itself becuase the top half is pretty much common news to anyone who ever saw a microsoft E3 Confrence (except one or two things but they are not importiant at all so who cares.)
MC Gets waken up by Cortana on the broken ship that crash lands on a forerunner planet.
Cortana suffers from [URL="http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Rampancy"]AI Rampancy[/URL], Which is a unavoidable side effect of super advanced AI where the AI starts to go haywire, First getting depressed, then getting insanely angry for no reason at everything, jealousy at everything, then Metastability which is only a theory stage where a AI is considered 100% human but is a one in a billion chance of ever really happening.
So the entire plot of Halo 4 surrounds contacting humans to let them know MC and Cortana still exist, and getting off the rock so they (and most importantly to MC, Cortana) don't die.
UNSC Infinity comes along and asks for help, but MC and Cortana can't do anything because signal is jammed from a fleet of covenant idiots that refuse to believe the unsc vs covenant war is over (i dont know much about this part).
So when you turn off the signal jammers, you inadvertently wake up a guy named [URL="http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow-of-Sundered-Star"]Didact[/URL], who used to be a Ex-Forerunner Military commander, the dudes been locked away in a freezer for like hundreds of thousands of years who is fucking pissed at master chief due to the Forerunner-Human war that he was in and the fact that humans still exist. This dude takes over the Covenant forces that remain somehow through orange forerunner magic and awakens forerunners again to start fighting the humans.
fast forward you get to the UNSC infinity which crash landed on the planet, then exposition happens. [sp]Didact is trying to find "the Composer" ( http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Composer ) which is a XXL version of the laser gun from Tron but instead of transporting people to the digital world it just kills them. fast forward again and MC gets his human evolution sped up by someone known as "the Librarian" (http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/First-Light-Weaves-Living-Song), another forerunner person who indexed life in the milky way. this makes him invulnerable to the composer.
fast forwarding to UNSC Infinity again and the Captian wants to leave and tell FLEETCOMM that shit is going down. MC and Cortana are like "no its okay we got this". The Captain of the infinity responds by wanting to take control of Cortana because shes rampant and MC is basically responding with "fuck you". the Captian wants to arrest MC to but he jumps off the infinity before he is able to and MC goes after Dicact again. He fails to do anything to the dicact and gets on a ship to follow the dicact to space.
The space travel ends when they arrive at the 3rd Halo Ring where a UNSC Research facility is doing things near it. Dicact shows off the composer by shooting it and killing everyone onboard the facility except you, because you evolved earlier. Another space race begins, except the destination is earth.
They get to earth and Dicact once again shoots the composer and kills a entire city called new phoenix ( http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/New_Phoenix_Incident ). you play Star Fox: halo 4 edition with the ship you drove to try to kill the composer and then go after Dicact. Cortana decides to help by cloning herself multiple times with her rampant personalities, blowing up the entire system. One QTE Final boss fight later (in a FPS GAME, GG 343) and Dicact dies. Cortana dies too due to the rampancy. Master chief is fucking destroyed by this ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y983TDjoglQ ) .
the ending of Halo 4 shows off the fact that the spartan program is going mainstream with the Spartan IV Program, using UNSC Soldiers that volunteer instead of children like how MC was thrown into the program.
[/sp]
theres more stuff explained in the spartan ops stuff but i didnt play that fully so whatever. i also dont read books to a video game.
basically halo 5 has a better story already then halo 4 (except for the MC/cortana parts).
shouldnt you be spoiler tagging this
