📅 June has produced some legendary Halo Champions 🏆
From Team FFA in 2004 to FaZe Clan in the modern era, these are the champions who etched their names into Halo history during June events.
Were you a witness? 👀
This is so annoying in the gaming industry. What happened to full content on release for just the base package? Locking in game locations behind a $100 is so wild, and ABSURD for a Rockstar entry.
Did EA acquire Rockstar?
Because GTA VI is locking 5 whole shops behind the $100 Ultimate Edition.
On top of the other bonuses, these 5 spots are literally "only open for business" if you pay up:
- Stock 305 Clothing Store
- Sara's Unisex Hair Salon
- Rideout Customs Mod Shop
- One Eyed Willie's Mod Shop
- Electric Fang Tattoo Shop
Paying for cosmetics is standard, but locking physical, interactive locations in the open world behind a paywall? That breaks the vibe.
You will inevitably drive past doors that are only "closed" because you didn't swipe your credit card, and realize the "open" world isn't fully open to you.
Is this the new normal for AAA gaming now?
New Name, Same Old Mistakes
I'm sure a lot of these decisions were made by a Halo Studios higher up, or even someone above them at Xbox. But, I, much like yourself, am allowed to enjoy a product while still being able to criticize and acknowledge its shortcomings when compared to past iterations.
I excused the $50 price tag at first, but after the recent Q&A, it truly is an insane asking price for what the consumer is fully getting in the end.
ALSO, THE DEFENSE OF "it's a Campaign, why would I need/want Firefight?" IS INSANELY WEAK.
BE SO FUCKIN FR

Bro in what world do you FINALLY add the Stanchion (prob the most requested Halo weapon EVER) to a game, make it such a big focus in a trailer, even going as far as giving it its own introduction cutscene where Johnson unboxes it and shows it off...
AND NOT LET US USE IT?!?!?🫠

I’m completely over “Movement Shooters”
I am simply not suffering from enough ADHD to want to peform 37 actions per second to get my kills anymore.
