We’ve been playing Halo 5: Guardians lately. No, not the full game. Apparently 343 Industries is very well protected and staffed by burly developers, so our plan to break in and steal the actual game was met with opposition and a good old-fashioned bum’s rush out the door. But we have been experiencing the beta of Halo 5 at least. A beta that paints a familiar, yet different picture of the game that arrives later this year. And you know what? It’s about damn time.
Join Sandy and I as we delve deep into Halo 5: Guardians after having played the game for several weeks. And by play, I mean that Al most likely got some actual kills while I experienced next-gen bullet sponge physics. Here’s the vodcast version for you guys who want to see the game in action:
And here’s the audio version for those of you on an internet line speed that is slow enough to appreciate hugs:
Halo 5: Guardians releases later this year. It’s Halo through and through, but with some much needed modern-day embellishments. And as much fun as the beta was, I’m keen to see these new modes executed in single-player.

Sadly, yet another game I never got to play when I had an xbox 360. Probably never will now, either :'(

I’ve been told. I was standing in the shop looking at the cover and it was between Halo and Resident Evil 6. I chose wrong *sniff*

Yup. Shortly after, the brick died and flashed the red dot of doom.

So even you Xbox knew you were trying to plague it with nonsense by inserting the RE6 disk into its drive… It knew, man… And it sacrificed itself so you wouldn’t have to play it! Now that’s love!! 😉

I’ll say this, Darren you improved in your FPS skills or at least the footage shown is better than the CoD one. You not running around looking at the sky or ground anymore, its’ more focused on the player level and you putting shots on people.
