Yeah, 343i lost my respect from that move. And with some of their anime shit. HALO WAS MADE IN AMERICA DAMMIT! Guess anime artists get desperate for work and will agree to get paid in peanuts.

What's funny is that 343i isn't actually doing the HD upgrade (it's Saber) nor the Reach maps (that's CA). Hope all of this time working on Halo 4 pays off!

Shit you're out of ammo for your BR!

And you just got stuck by an Ultra Grunt.

Halo 2's AI might have been simple but there's no arguing that game was unforgiving as fuck. A single melee from anything, a single beam shot, a single grenade splash, hell a Grunt could come bite your knee and you'd probably die in one hit. + Halo 2 loves putting random enemy respawn points behind you all the time. I had a lot of fun with Halo 2 Legendary, but if you think it's easier than the first game you haven't played it lately.

Halo 2's legendary was stupid. But it wasn't all that difficult. It wasn't really fun either, at least compared to Halo 1. Its called not being a jackass and actually paying attention to what you're playing. Patience son.

Fighting through a map? cute. Jump/drive/bounce/lunge out of the map and proceed to beat legendary

But...but I like Halo Legends. I saw it as entertainment more than anything.

well seeing as there isnt really any bonus for beating halo 2 on legendary, like achivments or anything, the only reason to do it on legendary is for the bragging rights of saying you did it on legendary. that kind of defeats the purpose, unless theres a legendary ending or something, but still...

Sorry. Not even that. No.

I don't find debauchery of established canon entertaining. Halo just doesn't look good as an anime either. I like good anime, I like Halo, but I prefer if they never ever met.

It was a little better than watching a half-assed machinima made in a Halo game vOv
