I knew about Staten joining. Didn't know about Pierre, my bad.

So according to this Staten is running the campaign now and Pierre Hintze is in charge of the multiplayer. Pierre was brought onto 343 last year to help fix MCC.

Apex has one, I think Destiny is getting one next gen.

That honestly is some awesome scenery. I wish the level assets would have been used in the campaign somewhere.

Yeah there was definitely an over abundance of film grain. But yes the models and textures are mostly what I’m talking about.

I still like Reach’s aesthetic, Halo 3 is great and ages well, but Reach just had a bigger impact on me.

I miss messing around on maps finding as many super jumps as possible.

With what I know, he isn’t a hardcore MLG Halo fan, but he definitely enjoys the series. He’s made “Halo X years later” where he evaluated each title, their strengths, their weaknesses, and how they hold up today. Definitely some good videos if you have the time to watch them. Though I’ve definitely disagreed with things he’s said in his videos before, especially concerning multiplayer and I don’t agree with everything he says in this video either. I just thought it was interesting. I guess I just gravitate towards how I hate how people say X is dead because it isn’t what it use to be or because population drops. Halo still has an active community, competitive tournaments, grassroots, and a will to continue the series. Halo might as well be dead to a lot of people and it’s hard to see how far it’s fallen, so I get it.

Here Execrated made a little Reach MLG mini for me. Nothing super primo, but I didn't want what little clips I had to go to waste. Most of it is the first couple weeks Reach released on MCC.

H3 just wasn't my jam. Everybody was racing to get a 50 in Team Slayer and running around on Snowbound or Epitaph with AR's and Pistols wasn't exactly fun. I had way more fun going back and playing Hardcore H2 or Team Snipers. I eventually came back and played a bit of MLG, but its probably my least played Halo, that or Reach.

Each Halo has meant something different to me at different times. Halo 4, for instance, ranks pretty low on my competitive merit scale, but during its life cycle it was full of memories with friends and good times. I'd probably never play it again willingly along with some other titles, but just for total enjoyment I'd rank it higher than most here would place it. I also vehemently hated Halo 3 when it dropped. I'd constantly go back and play Halo 2 or just play other games in general, but I can stomach playing it more than any recent title and actually have more enjoyment then say Halo 4 or 5.

Fairly confident they haven't released 24bit files of the soundtrack. 16bit lossless is the best you are going to get.
