Sound off if you watched it!
As someone whos played pretty much all the halos up until infinite (at least the campaign anyways) and has read 1 or 2 of the books/comics associated with it, i don't find it all that bad, not as bad as the recent review by PCG but i don't disagree with the arguments that article states. I mean right off the rim, Master Chief and the Elites are not that much taller than the marines/common folk when in reality they should be a couple of feet at least higher, higher than how Shaquille O' Neil is to a regular sized person. Master cheif should not also just be some marine in an armor suit, Spartans are like these genetically altered beasts in the suit and the plotline their going with is pretty generic.
BUT, i enjoyed the first episode, its got the swords, the sound of the armor being low on shields, the pistol, assault rifle etc. I dont mind that this Halo storyline is completely separate from the game either. If you like Halo in the least its worth checking out, whether you like it or not is up to you, because theres stuff to like and stuff to hate. I am also a sci-fi nerd and even if i never played Halo id be giving this a go. My personal review will be updated over time.
