Halo Franchise Expands: Waypoint, Legends Coming This Fall
Dare we say he's even cooler in cartoon form?
More news coming for co-op fans straight out of Comic-con. This time it's regarding some upcoming additions to the lofty Halo franchise. First up is Halo Waypoint. Described as the "a new destination for "Halo" fans on Xbox LIVE", it sounds like a channel devoted to Halo news, trailers, screenshots, and the like. A career system with ranking based on both in and out of game goals should keep Halo fans busy.
Another announcement is Halo Legends, a series of animated shorts set in the Halo universe. Some of the most acclaimed anime producers will be involved in the series. You can check out a preview of Halo Legends on XBox Live today. Of course, the series will be made available via Halo Waypoint.
This causes me a great moral dilemma. My youngest son loves "Master Halo" (as you may already know), and seeing him in cartoon form would likely blow his mind. Is there any chance the Halo anime will be remotely kid friendly? I suppose I better hold off telling him about it until we know for sure. Parenting: it's tougher than mowing down aliens in a Warthog.

who? bungie? i doubt they have much involvement in this to be honest. M$ owns the IP and bungie is more of a reference for new halo material. of course M$ still hit them up for the new games.
they are finishing up halo 3 ODST (9/22), they're working on halo reach, plus some other projects that they won't talk about (most likely just DLC for halo 3, ODST, & reach). there may be a non-halo project going on but they like to keep secrets
Bungie's doing reach? Or 343? Because it would be pointless for them to separate from Microsoft just so they can continue to do the exact same things they were doing before.
bungie is doing reach... why would they? $$$$$. i'm sure they'll have a new IP soon. they've hinted about it but it will probably be 2-3 years before we get our hands on it.
who is this team 343 you speak of? did a google search and got nothing substantial and nothing about games.
Maybe I got the number wrong. I'll check Kotaku and edit this post when I find it.
EDIT: What the heck, where did that article go?
EDIT AGAIN: Found it!
noooooooooooooooo!!!!!! you're unfriended. mac sucks (kidding)
But...but...I have a Windows partition! I can run Steam! Honest!
dual boot or VM?
so yeah... go halo legends! can't wait
i like the sound of halo waypoint too. it would be nice to be able to pick and choose what channels you want to see. kind of like subscribing to sites with an rss reader. that would make the current dashboard much more useful
confused... master chief is not in ODST. you play as an ODST, hence the name
Sorry, a typo. I meant you're NOT MC. I've always wanted to play as an ODST since Halo 2.
