Halo: The Return part 1 and 2 review.

Well showing their outstanding originality, the waypoint team comes at us again with another slideshow animated story from Halo; Evolutions. As usual I sat down and watched them and I’ll give you my opinion, and to be honest, I think you’ll be surprised.
Spoiler:

To conclude, I came in with very low expectations and I was shocked at how good this was, as it was a nice insight into the Covenant side of the war and well told and a tale of war and atonement. I’m looking forward to the next two and I highly recommend watching it, as it doesn’t have any real canon problems (Except maybe the atmosphere is intact, but I can forgive that as only really the glyph was made and it wasn’t a full planetary bombardment.) But other than that it was a truly good piece of work. Now I’m off to read the story in the book. I know I’m shocked too.

I stopped watching after they took them off Youtube (cheap bastards, like I'm going to pay to essentially watch a TV show), so I have no interest in them until they come back to it.

It sucks though, because Prototype looks pretty good.

It isn't legends. That shit is out and dead to me.

This is some exclusive stuff for waypoint which was originally a Halo Evolutions story.

The internet does wonders PiE. See what happens when I type in Halo Legends Protype.

Doing the same for any of the others lets you watch them as well. I like Homecoming, Origins and Prototype the best. Odd one out is actully pretty damn funny. Reminds me of FLCL and DBZ. Razz

Also this new motion comic one looks pretty cool as well. I'm curious as to what the story is sence I have yet to read Evolutions.

Krazy, I am sold on the idea that you could do something 10x better in 15 minutes.

Meh.
"The Return" was one of the better stories in Evolutions, but I just wish they'd back off on the merching.

Huh.
The ending in the book was completely different...

So, how was the comic-book style animation? That may be why the final battle wasn't shown...

It's only about halfway through.

For some reason they split it into 4 bits, which I reviewed the first two.

I hated Prototype, I thought it was full of canon holes and emo character who was just insufferable.

Looking for too the next too bits of this.

Be as it may, Prototype was still better than everything else except "Homecoming".

Could have benefitted from ten more minutes of exposition.

Indeed. It would be nice to know who his platoon died, where this uber crazy gundam mech came from, and why he the code for it.

A bit of an explaination would of been nice.
