In reply to Robert W. Yeah... good point. A Devil Mouse remake would probably feature a gender-confused Delta-38 trying to come to terms with his pronouns and seeing the Trade Federation mechs as sentient beings who are just deeply misunderstood. God help us all in that case.

Disney really wrecked lucasarts. Heaven forbid they touch Republic Commando, although doubling the number of missions from three to six would be tempting.

Trust me Didact, I really didn’t want to be right. While Infinite had a few big steps in the right direction, in my opinion it was sunk mainly by the sameyness of the environments, the lack of big set pieces, not doing enough fun stuff with the open world, and the complete pointlessness of the story. I won’t even get into setting the game on the Halo ring with the most interesting backstory in the 343 canon and then doing nothing with it, or how it’s the 3rd complete story reboot in 3 games, or how everything that’s actually interesting happens off-screen.

But enough about the last game…thanks for the review of this one. Everything points to it being an asset flip since it appears to be running on Reach’s engine with a Unreal 5 glow-up. The DEI Detected content is just the cherry on top.

Halo is now in the same position as Star Wars and Metroid, where they’re essentially forced to keep making new things earlier in the timeline because they’ve so completely screwed up the present state of the universe that nobody gives a **** anymore.

In reply to Randale6. Yep, I bought that and have been playing it on and off. It is considerably harder than the original game - and that was already a challenge. But it is up to its eyeballs in awesomeness and masculinity.

Comrade, I have played it, Space Marine 2 is the answer you seek. Warning though, it will put your system through its paces.

I never really played much Halo. But I brought the Halo: The Master Chief Collection a few months ago and been playing a Co-op the gamer on my youtube channel (I will only post if Didactic Mind wants me to. Loads of fun. But I am happy I did not play the remake, it looks bad, and everything I hate about modern gaming, minus the looks (which are great).
