Destiny 2 Lightfall is already reminding me of the best era of Halo games

March 1, 2023VG247

A breakneck retreat from a ship as it implodes, some of the classiest combat puzzles in the FPS genre, and a killer soundtrack. Halo is back, sorta. Remember when Bungie used to make Halo games? They were great, weren’t they? Some of the tightest, smartest shooters around – revolutionary in the way they opened up the corridors of the genre and popularised the use-the-weapons-of-your-enemy mechanic. Whether you were playing as Master Chief in the main trilogy or some plucky young upstarts in ODST or Reach, those games are packed tight with some of the most iconic moments in FPS history….

Ultimate Audio Bang #24: our pick of the best FPS guns that aren’t guns

August 19, 2022RockPaperShotgun

On this week’s episode of the Ultimate Audio Bang, we select a few of our favourite non-traditional guns that aren’t really guns. You know, the sorts of weapons that don’t just spew bullets but generate portals or even clean filth off car bonnets. What really happens is we go off on a massive tangent about Deathloop, because we can’t help ourselves. Read more

OMG, Someone Actually Conquered Halo 2’s ‘Impossible’ $20,000 Challenge

August 4, 2022Kotaku

They said it was impossible and, for nearly two decades, that seemed to be the case. But last night, a streamer named Jervalin beat Halo 2’s “LASO deathless” challenge, earning a cool $20,000 in the process. Talk about finishing the fight.

EA blamed Halo Infinite for Battlefield 2042’s poor performance – but six months later, the tables have turned

July 12, 2022VG247

Battlefield 2042’s struggles are far from over, but at least it can claim victory over one particular battle. When Battlefield 2042 launched in November last year, it seemed like EA was ready to blame any number of outside factors on the game’s sorry technical state, and its subsequent poor reception. The publisher cited all the usual Covid-related disruptions, even if it seemed like DICE was hit harder than most. But one particular theory posited by EA executives – according to a report from February – was that the surprise launch of Halo Infinite just four days earlier put Battlefield 2042…

Everything Missing From This Year’s Not-E3

June 17, 2022Kotaku

Following last night’s back-to-back JRPG stream, not-E3 2022 is officially a wrap. It was a weird one this year. Bethesda finally showed off more than eight seconds of Starfield gameplay, four years after its initial announcement. Several prestigious studios announced remakes of cultural touchstones that may or may not need the remake treatment. A series of indie-driven showcases handily upstaged the big AAA events. It was made even weirder, too, thanks to the outright absence of major publishers like EA and Take-Two Interactive. For all intents and purposes, Ubisoft was MIA, save for a five-minute announcement about an Assassin’s Creed…

For Xbox, a lot is riding on its big not-E3 press conference. Right now, following a number of notable delays, the mega-publisher’s 2022 is devoid of any major exclusives. In addition to the requisite announcements of games coming to Game Pass and announcements about more devices on which you can stream those games, Xbox might actually share some news about, y’know, actual video games.

Halo Infinite Just Can’t Catch A Break

May 5, 2022Kotaku

Busted challenges. A dysfunctional battle pass. A bunch of ultimately ineffectual “fixes.” A cacophonous uproar of player feedback, much of which isn’t positive. It may sound like the launch-window era of Halo Infinite, but no: This is Halo Infinite today, six months after its launch, during the first week of its second season.

Yesterday, Halo Infinite’s samurai-themed “Fracture: Tenrai” event returned for a third round, looking much like it did for its second outing. For some players, it’s another excuse to hop into a fun event with meaningful rewards. But for others, it’s an underbaked game spinning its wheels.

When Halo Infinite Season 2 kicks off, Credits will be earnable through the battle pass. 343 Industries announced the change overnight, and this means you will no longer have to pay real money for Credits once the change is made. Instead, they will be earned through progression. The studio said it will have more to share on this as it gets closers to Season 2. A date for Season 2 has not been provided, but it is expected to go live sometime this spring. This news comes on the heels of 343 reducing the price of items available on the…
