Halo

Halo ODST

By Tom Fotherby on October 17, 2009

XBox360,FPS,4/10 – Sep 2009 I loved the TV series called “Firefly” and always thought it’d make a good computer game, so it seems Christmas had come early – Mal (Nathan Fillion), the Firefly captain is in the latest Halo game together with Jane (Adam Baldwin), and Wash (Alan Tudyk).

Halo Wars Demo

Halo Wars Demo

By Tom Fotherby on March 15, 2009

Halo

By Tom Fotherby on September 1, 2002

XBOX,FPS,9/10 – August 2002 There’s so many good things about Halo but if I was to name the best I would say it was the vehicles. When you get in a vehicle the view moves from 1st person to 3rd person and the feel of the game totally changes increasing variety and pace. Other AI […]
