Next year Xbox & Halo will be 20years old should they do sumthing special?

oh dear lol

-

This years should be more special thanks to next gen...Dev Sessions should be good, also have a plan for the first thing I do on the Thursday which should hopefully benefit my gaming end of the year

A nine year old should not be playing on Xbox Live and definitely should not be playing COD/Halo/any mature rated game.

Hello everyone

..........

I know that I am young and not as much of a gamer as most you are, but I have a confession to make regarding the new trend that is happening with gaming today.

..........

I miss the good old days where we had to wait for the next game to come out. Here is what I mean

..........

Halo Combat Evolved was released in 2001

Halo 2 was released in 2004

Halo 3 was released in 2007

............

Using the Halo games that I just listed, there is a sense of specialness and anticipation for Halo 2 after I completed Halo Combat Evolved. This same specialness and anticipation was also present for Halo 3 after I completed Halo 2

..........

I don't know how to describe it, but waiting 3 years for the next version of a game in a series worked well for Halo

..........

Maybe its because I'm a Girl that I feel this way LOL

But, I have a much deeper appreciation for a game that isn't rapid fire released (a new game each year) because these games (games that don't come out every year) typically have amazing content and quality. These games are not being rushed out of the door


This combination of amazing content and quality allows the game to stay relevant until the next game in the series comes out

These games typically don't have expansion DLC and they are a testiment / standard to what a " base version of a game " should have

..........

Have a nice day or afternoon or night everyone

That limited edition Xbox looks sick with its controllers. I have two Xbox consoles and both are special edition, Halo Reach Edition and Resident Evil Edition. Turns out the 2 & 1/2 years old Xbox lasted longer than the 4 month old Halo Reach Edition. My
point is these new "special edition" Xbox consoles aren't worth anything from my experience. You're better off buying the regular Xbox as you get off cheaper.

Sorry to here about your Christmas story though.

I thought Reach was good. Enjoyed the concept of Spartan Ops in Halo 4. Needs to do something special for next gen really.
