Bungie almost done with Halo 3?

Over at Bungie's weekly update they gave us a small glimer of hope or did it completely squash hopes? According to this quote

"While we've indicated in the past that we don't have plans to deliver more content for Halo 3 beyond the retail launch of Halo 3: ODST, going as far as to call the return to New Mombasa the "exclamation point" on the Halo 3 experience, that's not a definite "never." That said, don't get too excited at the prospect as there are no current plans to make additional content post-ODST."

See the rest of the article over there they talk about Halo 3 continuing because of "us" the community making content. Really Halo 3 has some impressive play numbers still, which is no suprise. Halo ODST is going to be another reason to keep playing at least for a few more years. I can't wait to see what new projects Bungie gets into they really know how to keep a IP in the media and in your console.

Halo Wars is the shit.... my mini review.

Weeks after release I've finally gotten into Halo Wars and love it. I have never played a RTS game before. PC or Console so maybe I'm not a great person to review the game but I like it. It really doesn't have much to do with it being Halo either I really enjoy the gameplay. Being Halo doesn't hurt don't get me wrong I love the universe and think the story is pretty compelling. I see Halo turning into a Star Wars type of universe actually it already has.

So I move off topic here HW is not perfect you don't get around the map very easily and maybe that is why PC guys prefer to keep RTS games on PC. I think once you get the hang of it maybe it gets better but I'm 4 missions in and trying to juggle multiple conflicts it gets hectic. Which brings me to the next point the AI sometimes just sits here and watches shit get blown up. I was on a mission in the city protecting 3 evac ships. I would bulk up on pad one then move over to pad two or to my base to get more marines and get a message pad one is taking fire. I make it over there just in time to see my ship get blown up and my Hornets and Warthogs are sitting just out of the way. WTF? The AI is supposed to engage when near a enemy even if you don't request them too. I think the range needs to be reconfigured because that mission was BS.

The graphics are sweet watching your little marines shoot, drive, throw and fly has never looked better. Your base has lots of small working parts each supply pad has a conveyor belt. The level of detail is amazing to me and I get caught up just looking at them sometimes. Sound is spot on in all weapons, characters and explosions. The soundtrack stays true to the Halo series and fits in perfectly.

Over all I give this game a score of 4 ninjas out of 5. I think it's a great game and worth a buy for fans or anyone looking to get into RTS games.
