I was cynical at first, mostly because of the hashtag stuff, but this seems like a pretty cool thing with a lot of thought put into it now.

HAPPENING. As long as it's presented in a nice way for the average Joe, I hope this plays a role in H5G's story. Assuming Ben doesn't just bite the dust in the finale next week, this is GOING PLACES.
In related news; Apparently Gary Whitta of SHOOT THAT GUY fame did consultant work on Halo 5's story. Obviously not on content (he's never shown an interest in Halo's story), but my guess is flow and presentation. Dude knows how a story should be structured, and after the shit show that was H4, I'm glad 343i got his help.
@big_jon: I've completely come around on this series. For the last couple I've been sitting on the soundcloud page all day refreshing.
But on a related note, I'm on the last(?) chapter of Mortal Dictata and BB, to Parangosky, said something that stands out to me given Hunt the Truth's story.
"I think the real crisis for [Osman] will be if the Spartan scandal ever goes public, really public, Waypoint public, because there'll be a tidal wave of indifference. Then she'll start to question why we spent the lives of millions of troops protecting a species that's happy to see kids abused because it's all for the greater good and it didn't happen to them. It's not very fulfilling to serve and electorate that would have voted for Hitler [referring to Halsey]."
Is Ben doing this all for nothing? Will Earth and the inner colonies not give a rats ass?
Arrrrrrgh what a frustrating ending! Ugh they really did a good job of making me hate ONI even more for managing to wriggle their way out of all of the building up this series has been doing.
GOOD NEWS!

I've had these downloaded to my podcast app for a while now but yet to listen to them. Might have to wait till Sep for maximum Halo 5 hype.
This looks just awesome, Blue team sounds great and looks to have a solid AI, the atmosphere, the music, being chased by Hunters! I love it all!
Holy hell I can't wait to put hundreds of hours into the multiplayer, it looks smoother and more balanced than the Beta for sure.
I need this game in my life...
I still prefer Bungie's art, BY FAR (dem Reach designs), but I'm finally coming around on 343i's stuff. Maybe it helps that H5G actually plays good? And going in I like what they're doing story wise?
I just finished Halo New Blood and LOVED it. Hot damn. The Kilo-Five trilogy seems like complete shit in comparison (probably because it is).
PS - Blue Team action figures when???
Starts tomorrow, all the way to launch.
New narrator.
Shorter season, longer episodes.
Cast includes
- Tamara Taylor
- Mark Hamill
- Vanessa Marshall
- Alan Tudyk
- Rosa Salazar
- Bruce Thomas
- Peter Serafinowicz
- William Salyers
Listening to the Supercut for season one right now.

I was just searching to see who voices Ben, and wow, I didn't know it was Key from Key and Peele. I don't watch that, but still, this is surprising and kind of cool.
Man, CUBE B-349 was rough to listen to, somewhat unpleasant.
They are really painting ONI as a group that will do anything to keep their power.
New trailer was not good.
Anyways, I will probably just wait for all episodes to come out to listen to them at once. (Also I may or may not be in a closed blank playing blank.) It is sooooo gooood!!!!
@village_guy: I really like what they're doing with this series. I listened to that episode on the train on the way to work and I realised by the end of it that I'd been standing there looking stricken the whole time.
@bigjeffrey: Blank? What's blank?!
I listened to the latest episode and thought it was funny that the show Prison Break is part of Halo lore now.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
ost preorder on itunes get 5 tracks
HYYPE LEVELS HAVE BROKEN
Some Halo 3 vibes from "The Trials" track.
@bigjeffrey: Yeah the trailer I actually enjoyed way more than the first one, though I could have done without the corny "let's hunt him down" at the end ruining the atmosphere.
And I have been listening to those tracks all day, they're really sharp, I like the Trails track hugely and the sinthy Kamchatka is awesome too, very strong start.
Finally got caught up on S2 of Hunt The Truth. I was initially disappointed we didn't get Petra doing this season, but OH MAN this FERO stuff has been great. And I love Mshak even more now. The inclusion of BB was a great surprise too. His voice is only slightly deeper in tone than what I imagined it being from reading the Kilo Five trilogy, which is cool.
