Our Halo 4 retrospective continues as we discover that there were originally intentions to make the game far more different from the original trilogy. The team played it safer than you might imagine.
If our regular episodes are the theatrical this is the extended cut. Halo Infinite launches Fall 2021. Cyberpunk 2077, The Last of Us Part II, The Game Awards, Star Wars + Marvel announcements. You may fire when ready.
Clone Wars. Sequel Trilogy. Mandalorian. We talk Star Wars and make no apologies for it. Make sure to check out the Blue Harvest podcast if you like Star Wars, they are just THE BEST.
Did you ever hear the tragedy of Haruspis the wise? He had such a knowledge of Halo 4 that he could keep the game he loved from being unfairly criticized. Prepare yourselves as we discuss Halo 4's journey from beginning to end in this multi-part series.
Jondan and Cole cash in on their final thoughts covering the Shadows of Reach novel, as well as the extra special edition tie-in content. Be sure to check all four episodes covering this phenomenal book by the one, the only, Troy Denning.
This is where the fun begins. Jondan and Cole cover that last third of Shadows of Reach. A lot happens in this conclusive finale but make sure to come back next week when they cover the Wal-Mart exclusive story and final thoughts!
Books, trailers, cups, toys, clothing and more it's everything but the game. We would have been playing Halo Infinite within days had things gone as planned, but they don't always...and that's okay.
