Going Home. Not as cool as it used to be. Halo Style Free Form

[Mirah]

Wait, if I give too much information at the start of the thread, no one will open it!
I don't care!

Well,
I went home to Halo for the holidays.
I even had a Halo dream last night.
I thought it would be really cool.
Really really cool.

 

[Mirah]

I salivated at the chance to play Halo with all of my friends again.
I salivated at the chance to play original Halo games on a NEW CONSOLE!

 

[Mirah]

Good thing this xbox came with Assasins Creed or I might not have anything good to play.

 

[Mirah]

I put in the Halo disc. (Not really-it is now just a download that is stored onto the Xbox/no discs are necessary anymore.)

The music played.

I was so excited!

And then I realized,

after pushing several buttons to open doors that I am sure I have opened before in previous games,

this just isn't fun anymore

I shot my gun

I killed things

 

[Mirah]

The graphics

the music

Cortana

Now she looks like a young girl while Master Chief's voice is getting old. WTF

Whose fantasy am I in?

At the comedy show the other night a kid said he always thought he would lose his virginity to the sound of Halo. (and he mimicked Halo music)

Virginity?! I was probably 25 when I started playing Halo! 25!

Seriously, if I lost my virginity to a game, it would have been pac man or something. Or Donkey Kong or maybe Mario Brothers. That sounds more appropriate for my age probably.

 

[Mirah]

Cortana is talking in my ear
I'm driving a warthog

I'm just not feeling it.

But after about 4 hours of playing today, I will tell you how I feel.

Her breasts keep getting bigger?

 

[Mirah]

Yes.

 

[Cassie]

Is she a robot?

 

[Love Child]

She is AI. What I just found out from playing one of the levels over and over again is DNA was used from a human. Hologram/ not robot.

 

[Love Child]

Her breasts keep getting bigger?

I think it is because a different industry took over Halo rather than Bungie.

Whatever

The whole game is messed up.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I think she was in that Halo movie I watched on Netflix but it provided no context.
