Be honest: Was anyone even that excited for Crackdown 3 based on what they saw at E3?

This is a nice meeting-in-the middle of sorts.
Hopefully most people are happy now.

Scarabs seem to big and slow to be realistically tactically usefull

How do you even handshake an elite?
They have no thumbs

Reminder that brighter is not always better

SPV3 IN 2 DAYS

GET
FUCKING
HYPE!!!

Can't wait.
I have purposely avoided the demo so I can experience the whole project at once.

Interested to see how they handle the flood levels

CRACKDOWN 3 DELAYED AGAIN
DRAG PHIL OUT IN THE STREETS

#BringBackDon

Pls no

How similar is this delay schedule to Fable Legends and Scalebound?

Why did they have to change the health bar to the reach version?

>Xbox One X Pre Orders
Does anyone even care at this point?

4K enthusiasts

I'll consider getting a Halo 6 bundle. But I don't need one now or anytime soon.

Why didn't Halo 5 add any new unique skulls?

For the same reason ODST, Reach and 4 didn't.

Top middle health bar is better.

But they added so many in MCC.

Yo scale it all the way back to the same amount H3 had seems strange

Gears!

That 60fps is sexy

...

Who is ready for the tuning update?

Once I get back from 7eleven I'm gonna play some more Gears. That 60fps looks even better in glorious 1440p (the best resolution)
youtu.be/8UxqSgzrpNs

16k is the best resolution

>he only plays in 16k
Get a load of this chump. 420k master race.

>343 thinks cammo isn't strong enough
Christ

...

Nice meme

The human eye can't see past 2k

>tfw no ringworld video game

Makes you think

>sun in the middle

What a shit memorial for such an important war

HEY! Don't I know you?

Why doesn't Atriox just kill cutter right here?

I'm more interested in this second dual desu

During the human/covenant war, why did the humans do better against the covenant on the ground?
Why didn't their technological superiority translate to ground battles as well?

No other race has the determination and absolute desire to conquer completely than humans.

>During the human/covenant war, why did the humans do better against the covenant on the ground?
I mean, they did better than they did against them in the air, but the covenant still outperformed humanity on the ground in most occasions, it just wasn't as big of a difference.

Elites can't sword charge so shotty man wins

I know they still lost most of the times, barring miracles and/or spartans. I'm wondering why they didn't lose more, considering the difference in technology and numbers.

That is one sexy energy sword design

Oh I see.
Probabky home field advantage

Oh, I see.

And so on and so forth.
What are you smoking? The thread is fine.

Same reason Americans fared decently against the British during the American Revolution. Same reason Canadians beat Americans back during the War of 1812. Same reason the Northern states struggled at the beginning of the American Civil War.

That reason? Home field advantage.

...

He probably meant to post that in the Xbox general, which has averaged 1 post an hour or less for most of it's tenure.

Fuck off. If your general is dying, you take care of it yourself.

Holy shit that's pathetic.
You know something is dead when it's being bumped simply to be kept alive.

The best part is we edited the OP soley to appease people that wanted to discuss other games and the console in edition to Halo, but apparently it's still not enough. Figures.

>being this desperate

Discuss

One gun is better than the other.
Seems simple enough

>In edition to being uglier, the 5 BR is also objectively worse.

Post GT

No

You sure you're not talking about /hg/?

Imagine being this buttblasted

Yeah, pretty sure.

Good morning, /hg/

Mornin' user, how goes the grind?

It's still dark where I am.
I reside in the canon time zone.

You live in Indonesia?

Post YFW cuphead is canceled

...

Please don't say this.

...

...

I'm at the point where I'm not even looking forward to it anymore.
It was always just going to be a mediocre 2D indie boss rush but I was willing to put that factor aside because of the uniquely interesting visuals.
At this point however, the wait has probably negated that effect.

Regrettably, probably this.
But I'm still holding out hope.

Colony actually has the advantage over every single other Leader in a 1v1 matchup. Few know this.

Breaking the Clutch disagrees

You're probably right, but I'm honestly not interested in getting gud at Haah Waaw. I'll play the expansion, but I won't put extra effort into it like I do with the FPS campaigns.

You should not include anyone that doesn't endorse /hg/

BtC is wrong then. A ball of Reapers and Hunters with Skitterers placed appropriately will push back any force, bar maybe a weird Vulture/Sniper blob. As long as you don't panic and blow your Leader Power load on like two Marines, Colony is the best in 1v1s.

Reavers, sorry.

...

Reavers reveal cloaked units.

...

Spore was No Man's Sky, but good.

Praise the totem chief!

I never know why anyone expected anything except for that.

It had a hype train
Visuals can sell

What is your favorite emblem in Halo 5?

Well he's a fucking tank so it makes sense, he's also slow as fuck to balance it out.

I've always been a Mark of Shame fan
