do any oldfags remember Sonic coming to Nintendo? Is Halo coming to Playstation anywhere close to the surreal feeling you got from Sonic on Nintendo?
>>

Kind of, yeah. Halo is one of the last soulful exclusive titles.
>>
>>739047284
The feeling isn't the same as:
>Sonic was never on any other console except from Sega
>Sega basically gave up the console war
>Halo hasn't been well respected since 4 at latest whereas Sonic Adventure was still rather popular
It is a big deal but, due to the waning popularity of Halo and the PC-fication of the Western console market, it isn't as huge.
>>
>>739047284
No. Halo was a great ip once but It’s well past its prime. Sonic came to Nintendo right after it had two massive hits on the Dreamcast
>>
Everyone already played Halo 1 years ago
>>
>>739047551
Adventure 2 Battle was a port of Adventure 2 which came out a couple of years beforehand.
>>
>>739047462
yeah i really like halo but it’s fucking dead
>durr here’s a new audio book every other year pls forget the failure and narrative pile of shit that was halo 5 and infinite
maaan fuck off

Halo came to PC over 20 years ago and it made no impact.
The series was "captive audience: the game" because there was no other competent shooter for the Xbox. Guess what happened when that was no longer true.
>>
>>739047786
That's rather dismissive as Halo was still big even when CoD MW was all the rage. The main reason why Halo failed was because the new devs tried to modernise it by copying CoD.

SA2 and SA2B came out less than a year apart
>>
xbox died when phil spencer told the FTC in court that they would completely stop making exclusive games in exchange for FTC approval, and retailers immediately responded by putting the xbox series X on clearance.
they were wishy-washy about exclusivity for a few years but if you were following along then that's when you knew oh, they're DEAD dead.
halo 1 remake releasing on PS5 isn't really a watershed moment, just kind of sad they're releasing a shitty remake instead of porting MCC.
maybe if you're the kind of person behind the times enough to still buy and use an xbox as your main console, then it would be shocking. but most people jumped ship when the xbone came out.
>>
>>739047284
No, nobody cares about anything anymore.

Yeah really blew my mind when I got Sonic Advance on GBA. After having played Sonic 1, 2, 3&K, Spinball and 3D Blast on Megadrive seeing it come to my Nintendo handheld really shocked me. I remember being in the car reading the box and showing my sister but she really didn't give a shit and just called me a loser.
