Creative Director for Halo 4 quits the project, and leaves 343 Industries. I don't know about you, but that doesn't sound good for Halo 4. Edited by Arem, Sep 8 2011, 09:51 AM.

This doesn't sound good at all. My entire excitement about Halo 4 was that it was now being handled by more competent people who had sense to give us a plot that was actually epic, as opposed to just trying to be. I want to know more about why this guy quit, I want DETAILS about what they weren't letting him do. D: |

So this Ryan Payton guy left a while back and it just became news recently? Then that means things have been progressing fine for a while? I guess we can all breathe a sigh of relief? |

I can't say I really care, I'm going to remain skeptical until I actually have a chance to play the game, and as a result, I have no intention of buying it until I've played it and know it's good. |

I hear that the reason why he left was that he wanted to take Halo on a different path instead of the traditional shooter we expect, kind of like Wars did, but 343 said no. But still, the head honcho of the Mass Effect 2 cinematics? That's interesting, since the cinematics in Mass Effect 2, particularly in the last chapter, were rather breathtaking. As for Halo 4, I may end up getting it but I'm going to have to see how it handles in different hands. Halo Anniversary should provide some glimpse on how they'll handle it.

Okay wait, time out, that's exactly what I'm talking about. Several articles have touted the new Halo trilogy as being more awesome than the old games (which sucked as far as most things go). It was actually going to be an epic experience as opposed to one that tried too hard and fell flat on it's face. If that's THIS GUY's vision and he's gone, then I don't have much hope for the game. If that's THE ENTIRE TEAM'S CURRENT vision, then it's no big loss that he left. Someone clarify this for me nao plz. |

Because from what Luffy posted, this guy left "earlier this summer" and a very recent article I read stated their vision for the game as being more awesome and stuff. This leads me to believe that he was holding back the awesomeness...or it could be the other way around and the interview/article could've been from much earlier. |

Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Achievement list revealed No "spoilers" to speak of, but there are a ton of "level specific" Achievements, and a lot of them require playthroughs on Heroic and Legendary. Also, the skull hunt from the original trilogy makes it return. Now, here's the biggest shock: NO MULTIPLAYER ACHIEVEMENTS WHATSOEVER!! Makes me wonder if multiplayer will just share the Reach Achievements, since it is the Reach-atyle multiplayer. Per usual, the complete game by difficulty Achievements are back, yet I see no sign of a Legendary-solo one. Now, you will get a separate Achievement for completing one level on each of the 3 higher difficulties (Normal, Heroic and Legendary), but as far as beating the entire game on the difficulties, it appears to be that it can be done solo or on co-op. Lucky me. :D Edited by Arem, Oct 16 2011, 01:14 AM.

I fucking love 343 Studios, they just keep making me want to see what other awesome shit they'll do with the franchise from here on out. Dare I say, that it looks like it's becoming a lot more campaign based than multiplayer? :DDDDDDDD |

Well, Halo Anniversary is out, and I got to play the first couple of levels. It's rather pretty to look at, but damn, the controls feel a little clumsy. |

Orly? I figured they'd have tightened up the controls to feel more natural with the newer games in the series. D: |
