We finally finished all of the Halo games. I really enjoyed Halo Infinite and will probably buy it when it's cheap so we can complete some of the optional missions in the open world.

We're going to stick with Halo Infinite. The open world and grapple gun add just enough to make it feel different than the other games.

Halo 5... completed.

This one was hit or miss. Some levels were so much fun to play while others sucked.

I downloaded Halo Infinite and checked out the first level. I wasn't impressed at all. We're going to give it an hour and then decide if we we're going to finish it.

The Halo journey continues. I bought a month of Game Pass Ultimate so we can play Halo 5 co-op online and then play Halo: Infinite afterwards since it's included with Game Pass.

We finished Halo 4 last night and were so excited to start Halo 5 only to find out that it doesn't support LAN play. There's a Halo 5 LAN server program you can download and run on a PC on your local network, but it doesn't support co-op play. I guess our Halo journey is over.

Almost done with Halo 4. We're on mission 8 of 10 and should be done with it tonight. Gameplay-wise, this is the best one so far. It is nice to see that the gameplay has improved with each game. I will say that the most fun thing to do in this series is drive the Scorpion tank and blow shit up. The vehicle levels have become my favorite part of the series.

The story, unsurprisingly, sucks like the rest of the games, but to be fair, my son and I are usually talking/yelling and not paying much attention to the details. After killing me multiple times, I finally booted his ass from the session when the option popped up on the screen. He came running into the living room saying "are you serious?". I couldn't stop laughing, so we started started the mission over from our last checkpoint.

I can't believe that we're on our 6th Halo game and we're still playing games made for the Xbox 360. We're both anxious to see how much better the gameplay and graphics are on Halo 5, which finally moves us into the Xbox One generation.

They rely on people's fear of opening their console.

Xbox Announces Permanent Price Cut for Series X/S Storage Expansion Cards: https://www.purexbox.com/news/2023/05/xbox-announces-permanent-price-cut-for-series-xs-storage-expansion-cards

They're big prices cuts, but still too expensive. I wonder if the Western Digital cards will launch with a lower MSRP too.

About that...
