About Sal

I’ve got tons of experience with Halo gaming and collecting. I feel I have something to offer to the greater Halo fan community. Posts along the way will be about tips and tricks in the games as well as collecting and many more Halo related things. I’ll also repost interesting articles from the official site, Halowaypoint.com, or from fellow Halo fan sites. As I continue this blog, I hope to help gamers who want advice on the games, as well as any collectors with regards to where to find collectibles as well as deals, coupons and so on.

Halo 5 Guardians getting story-revealing trailor this week

The following is a partial re-blog from IGN.com:

Halo 5: Guardians is getting a live-action trailer set to reveal a glimpse of the game’s story on March 29.

Microsoft has revealed the trailer will be watchable online, and is set to build on the other elements of the marketing campaign we’ve seen so far.

The new trailer promises to show “both sides of the story”.

In other recent Halo news, the studio head for Halo 5: Guardians, Josh Holmes, revealed last week that the title will have only have dedicated servers for multiplayer, adding “That’s true for matchmaking AND customs. There is no P2P.”

HFFL: Well things are definitely getting exciting. I hope there is news soon of the live action TV show also.

Thanks to my bud Isaiah for the Intel on this.

So join us as we shed a bit of light on recent regalia, clear up a little bit o’ Bias, and give you your first screenshot assignment.

A far flung theory about the HuntTheTruth website/graphic

Okay folks, have a seat and get ready for some wild speculation. This is going to take some slight imagination, along with a theory based in Greek mythology.

First, as we know, some of the Halo franchise has Greek mythology imprinted into it. The most obvious being that of the Promethean of Halo 4.

So how does that fit in with what I’m about to speculate on. Okay, well here goes…

The huntthetruth website was just announced a couple of days ago and will reveal something in less than a day as of this writing. If you go to the site, you will find the following graphic: Continue reading

Regarding leaks

For those that want to give me guff  over reposting the video from the Hunt the Truth website, I am only one fan with a simple blog. I unlike others do not make any money from Halo. I repost or reblog leaked content because I know other fans want to know more information.

if someone from Microsoft contacts me and asked me to take the post down I will. This has never been an issue before. Continue reading

Hunt the Truth!!

There has been a VERY interesting development, regarding Halo 5.Hunt the Truth screenWith the tag line of: What seems like the end, is only the beginning, could something ominous be afoot?
