Here's part one of this, expect part 2 in two weeks time

Halo Legends: The Package part 1 review

Just finished watching the latest episode of the rapidly despised Halo Legends and once again I’ll give you my views on it. At seven minutes long this will be the shortest review to date, and of course plenty of spoilers to boot.

Spoiler:

To conclude, this again has some okay ideas, but again, you put in stupid crap like the EBA frames, and you keep of killing off Spartans like it’s going out of style. It’s a miracle if any of them made it to Reach. Tune in two weeks time for the conclusion of this story, as I think we can only go downhill from here.

Halo Legends: The Package Review Part 2.

Well time for the second part of this review, as it has now been released. I skip the first seven minutes AS THEY MAKE YOU WATCH THE FIRST PART ALL OVER AGAIN. Beware of Spoilers ahead.
Spoiler:
So overall, this is still the best one they’ve done so far, but this one is riddled with even more minor little annoyances in the canon, but nothing to crippling that we saw last time. It was the closest they ever come to getting close to the books and I’ll give them credit for that. But still, we’ve got a few to get through and it looks like they let the worse till last.

You know what really sucks? My Xbox broke down so I can't even watch this. Sad face. Sad

If someone could please, when the video comes to youtube or anything where it can be watched, please post link to it. Smile

I actually liked this episode, as it reminded me of star fox in almost everyway. The things I didn't like were the fact they were able to shoot and get close to the covenant ships and the shields seemed to not be there, and the brutes. I wouldn't mind the brutes if for the fact it was a Capital ship, with elites at the helm.

Other than that, it wasn't that bad. Although, weird how those spartan vehicles were more armored than a long sword, and how they have shields and the seraphs don't.

Well, this one was MUCH better than I expected. The only part of the ships that really bugged me was the lack of a cockpit. Otherwise, I actually thought this one was really good.

For the mountain of crap they've given us, this was the best one so far.

They were quite a few canon mistakes and annoyances, but it was ten times better than the Duel.

Let's just see where they go with it.

I they broke canon in so many ways with this one.

First, whoever "Solomon" is dies, which can't happen, Linda dies, which can't happen, Kelly is wearing an EVA helmet, which can't happen, John has Mark VI MJOLNIR armor, which wasn't invented till Halo 2, the Hornet/X-wing/Bike thing has shields, the SPARTANS acquire a bubble shield, and for some reason Brutes happen to be on a Sangheili crewed ship.

Otherwise, it was okay.

Well I was at XNate's house today and we watched it. The beggining was moderately alright, they used some cartoony game graphics that I've seen before. When they used those bike things whatever they're called, we couldn't help but yell out retarded lines every time they used them. Also they have some dialogue that seems unfinished anyways (maybe being over critical). However it was more pleasing to the eye unlike the duel where I couldn't tell what was going on half the time. I just imagine doped up people sitting there oggling this video drooling and then moaning "pretty colors" every few seconds.

Final verdict: good time waster

That was a summary, not a review.

I'd say if you can get past the several plot holes and bad voice acting it actually makes for an ok watch. Compared to the last one, this was a masterpiece.

I... actually like this one the best.

The animation was fairly well done, and I would go as far as saying the scene where the ships opened fire was 'beautiful'. I loved how all the torpedos and plasma shots were shining and flying through space, obviously it doesn't take much to make me happy Very Happy


All in all I would say this was an okay episodes, and the x-wings weren't that bad.

This one was much better, but I still agree with Rasq and even Nocbl.

These are hardly Halo stories; they're just stories with the word "Halo" stuck in front, just like Halo Wars is just wars with "Halo" in front of it.

Agreed.

This one has been the best so far, and despite a few canon mistakes it was still somewhat enjoyable.
