In Halo 4, 5, and Infinite, Master Chief became a more nuanced, human character.
In spite of the Halo series’ struggles, 343 deserves praise for adding nuance and characterisation to the ever-beating heart of Halo - The Master Chief. Playing through Infinite, it's abundantly clear that the events of the current and previous trilogies have irrevocably changed the iconic hero. He’s no longer the ‘blank slate’ that was previously presented by Bungie. He’s a fatigued, damaged and fallible protagonist, and one who is meandering through currents of grief, while reveling in his newfound agency. Giving the Chief a compelling and meaningful voice was no small feat, and 343 should be proud of that victory.
This article completely misses part of the appeal of the original iteration of character in the original game trilogy. It was the Chief and Cortana vs an entire alien collective. The blank slate Bungie displayed in their games was genius, he was an mysterious hero a wide audience could identify with because he wasn't as clearly defined as most characters.
The books added a lot of lore and backstory but most Halo players just want a fun game with exposition that doesn't get in the way of gameplay, it's why the Cortana level in Halo 3 was derided.
Not every character has to be a damaged soyboy, a soldier has to suck it up and do his duty.
The 343i Master Chief has is based on the books. However, in Halo 4-Infinite, the Master Chief overtime become. gradually becomes more willing to show some emotion.

GT7 will be my first game, as I want to test out my wheel - so excited - it's going to be awesome!
It’s a law of nature that eventually, every long-running game franchise will have a particular entry that gets dinged for straying too far from what made it so fun in the first place. Your Super Mario Sunshine, your Dragon Age II, Assassin’s Creed III, and so on. Whether or not that opinion changes more favorably over time, the initial specter of negativity will forever hover it. Microsoft’s Halo is no exception, except that negative specter hasn’t hovered over one particular game, but one whole studio.
Not really feeling the Vita as of late. It needs more good games NOW rather then LATER.
It's selling. Thats what really matters. Sure its not selling like 3DS but that doesnt mean its in trouble. One day the numbers will be there and the games will be there and all these sites calling it a failure will look really stupid..
We really need to start keeping track of these sites so when they are proven wrong time and time again they can be blocked from being posted here.
I have no problem with sites that are just starting out or arent well known but if everything you say is proven wrong why exactly should you be allowed to post your opinion
vita is the most expensive machine out right now so its selling slow.. give it time and it will pick up soon as the great upcoming games are out..
1. ps all star
2. COD
3. assassin creed
4. nfs most wanted
5. fifa
6. sly
7. takken vs streetfighter
8. LBP
great games and more to come after gamescom..
Vita is on its way to fail as we speak lets see if time will prove me right ? sorry sony fans.
The upcoming Gamescom and especially TGS will be absolutely critical for the Vita's success in the near future. Sony need to take advantage of both events and focus completely on the Vita.
