This might be the last time the team at Bungie do a Halo panel at PAX, so before we say farewell to the Halo franchise why not learn how Halo: Reach was created from scratch. Find out what the developers, at Bungie, had to go through to put together the single player campaign and designs for the multiplayer levels. For anyone who wants to get into development side of the gaming industry, watching this panel is a good place to start.

    So, Atari_Prime is saying that advanced aliens with advance armor and Spartans with advance armor should die with 3 bullets or less? Thank God, or the flying spaghetti monster, that this game isn't like Modern Piece of crap Warfare were you can shoot someone in the middle of their armor plate with a wimpy handgun and kill them. I've always been a fan of "if you don't like a specific game or console, don't freakin' play or buy it", so quit your bitching kid.

    Ok, well it seems I touched a nerve with some of my comments. I think maybe the truth hurts.

    Every game has its flaws. Halo, I just happen to think has more than most. Its popularity is not based around quality but the fact that it was the flagship game of the original XBox and that's what everybody bought because there weren't any other real options and that's what everybody talked about as a result. And each Halo since has been riding its coattails.

    Modern Warfare was born out of a dying franchise that was suffering from a lack over quality over the prior three iterations, but when 4 came along the quality was far superior and through a mix of great reviews and word of mouth it went on to outsell many other franchises without the same advertising backing that they had.

    Modern Warfare 2, sure it sold a lot, but it was mostly riding on the coattails of Modern Warfare. Its cartoony and over the top and suffers because of this.

    Halo Multiplayer. Both versions of Modern Warfare give the player a nice screen to pick different types of games to play. MW's version of one hit kill is 'Hardcore' mode, with many online multiplayer modes having this option. I shouldn't have to design a custom game to play a hardcore mode in a game. Yeah, my biggest gripe with Halo, beyond the pointless 2 foot tall aliens, is that you have to shoot someone a hundred times before they die. Jumping while shooting is a bit silly. I will even suspend disbelief and say that the suits protect you from damage, but on the same token the guns should be more powerful than a regular gun so it should all balance out and it doesn't. No one, in any shooter game should be able to take more than 2 or 3 shots from any gun before dying or at the very least becoming useless in battle.

    Trolling? I've never bothered to define the term. I am probably instigating a little bit, however everything I am saying I believe to be true.

    Prince Coyote said it best though, 'I don't like Halo.' As a result though, I am quite tired of them making Halo 1 over and over again. If it would evolve I would be impressed but it's still the same game as the first one just with a little prettier graphics.

    Awful panel. They had too many boring videos and their descriptions are pretty vague. The panel they had at last years pax, for ODST, was much better.

    I grew up playing with first-person shooters on the PC and probably why I found Halo games just good not this ground-breaking shooter that most console fanboys scream about.

    Someone mentioned that Halo series' gameplay are fun and more strategic than most consoles, well, I kind of agree with you there, when just comparing the Halo series with shooters on the console. Though I found Bioshock (single-player campaign anyway) better than any Halo games.

    I had no idea that Jamie Hector (Marlo Stanfield from The Wire) was doing V.O. work for Halo: Reach....that's actually kind of cool.

    I love sci-fi but just because something is sci-fi doesn't make it good. COD 4: Modern Warfare Part 1, not 2, is a balanced game.

    Any shooter without a one hit kill mode option isn't worth playing in my opinion. Otherwise you get two people standing in front of each other shooting hoping the other dies first, sometimes to make it interesting one runs backward while shooting too, what? oh and I forgot, they jump while shooting ...yeah people jump while they shoot at each other, another wtf Halo moment there.
