I have read one book, Halo: Fall of Reach and it didn't suck too much. It was a nice way of deepening the universe of Halo and giving depth to the games since you know more about the past of the characters.PopeJewish said:Sure, that was before the incident with the wood chipper
Seriously though, why would you read a Halo book? the story (and games themselves, imo) are so mediocre I feel I might literally be bored to tears attempting it in book form, and this is from a guy who actually does spend a decent amount of time reading.
That's the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. I can't stop laughing.LiquidGrape said:Why, Ugly Shepard [http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/105/index/1398049], of course!
See that's where you and I disagree. I think there's potential in the universe, as could be explored by books, but the games themselves don't develop any of it and thus their stories are mediocre. I'd say it's every bit as deep as Gears of War or Resistance, which honestly isn't that deep compared to the game worlds created by Bioware, Bethesda (and in turn Interplay, if we're talking Fallout) the Warhammer/40k series, etc. Now I'll grant it's a bit unfair comparing an FPS to RPGs when it comes to setting, but if you want a good game world that's where they're at. More similarly if you compare Halo to, say, Beyond Good & Evil (a 3rd person adventure game) it falls short. So I'll grant it has a better game world than a Tomb Raider or Doom, but all in all it's still reasonably mediocre, and the story as developed in the main games (never played the RTS so I can't comment) is rather lackingWainamoinen said:I have read one book, Halo: Fall of Reach and it didn't suck too much.

Where is the problem in that? It's not like anyone thinks a book about Halo-universe is going to be the next Shakespearean literatury treasure.
Also, the universe in Halo is quite nice and has a real history which can be studied if the player decides to do so, so saying that it's mediocore compared to a "standard gameworld" just shows that you have propably just kept on shooting at things without even giving any real thought to your surroundings.
I moved sliders and chose everything at random, the result was a character that I honestly did not like to look at, it made me feel kind of sick. If anybody ever looked like the monstrosity I created I think I would be inlined to kill them with fire out of pity.Turbulenssi said:

I mean seriously, look at this hideous sight of a man and tell me he doesn't win gold. Ugh, makes me sick just looking at him. I mean, WHO WEARS THEIR HAIR LIKE THAT?! So stupid...
