'Halo' Wedding Planned By Two Video Game Fans; Master Chief Will Officiate

They met playing "Halo" in 2004, and in January they'll get married by a guy wearing Master Chief armor.

Desirai Labrada, 29, and John Henry, 26, are having a "Halo" wedding.

And it was her idea.

Desirai and John are big-time "Halo" players. She games under the name SickNDeHead. He plays as PsychoVandal. They met when she lived in New York and he was in Florida. She'd become Xbox Live friends with his roommate, and they slowly started to play games together, regularly. When he didn't show up online one day during the time they usually played, she sent him a message and her phone number.

2 ppl are complete douche bags
x bot nerds getting married
i guess some xfags do have a chance at getting married.

AngryTypingGuy6025d ago (Edited 6025d ago )

brycespitler - Xfags? Xbox fans aren't the ones obsessing over a character named Sackboy, now are they? Now go back to playing your Japanese game where the character has long flowing locks, looks like he's wearing makeup, and looks like he's constantly posing for the cover of GQ.

Now, as for the two people having a Halo wedding, I like Halo as much as the next guy but...holy sh!t. Their parents must be proud.

gaming couple! Just look how they flirt with each other.

Younglings these days...

Dear God it's been 4 years since infinite and no official update on anything lol.

Tacoboto3d ago

No official update on anything?

They replaced studio leadership
They changed the studio name
They announced the change to UE5
... all while supporting Infinite

The support to Infinite isn't what it originally should have been but they've still been providing tons of official updates over the years, and as recently as two months ago added a brand new weapon.

GamerRN2d ago

I think remaking Halo Combat Evolved, and going to 2 and 3 again, will help give the studio an idea of how to make a Halo game feel like Halo again

Tacoboto2d ago

Infinite did feel like Halo, that's not what the complaints were...

The complaints were almost literally everything else. Monetization, netcode and desync, the campaign structure, story, and single biome, the weaker-than-expected post-launch content.

InUrFoxHole2d ago

Gotta agree. Infinite felt like halo.

Profchaos3d ago

Dev times in modern days 4 years of silence isn't unheard of when things are running smoothly.

And around 6 months ago 343 did show a tech demo of ue5 using halo assets so it's not radio silence.

Given all the shake ups i am more surprised we're getting anything next year at all.

RaidenBlack3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

They coulda started with Halo 3 remake ... I know Halo CE remaster was not proper with the art style but still, remaking after a remaster seems dull, when Halo 3 and Reach have started to show some age.

PhillyDonJawn3d ago

Yeah I hate they used Halo reach artstyle. Hope this remake feel authentic yet fresh

--Onilink--3d ago

Probably the simplest to work around with. They are reportedly doing it in UE5, so its just as much an Anniversary thing, as its probably the studio getting familiar and setting up their tools and processes in the engine with an actual game, to facilitate the development of the next Halo

Profchaos3d ago

I'm guessing combat evolved has a smaller scope in general the later half of the game features a ton of backtracking and reused assets making it a easier game to remake on a deadline

Its also a better choice if this is the first game to be multiplatform mind you I think it's pretty much a given that anyone with a passing curiosity has played this by now in some way be it pc or brought a used console for a few bucks

darthv723d ago

This will likely come to PS5 at the same time. 25 years of XB.... shared with PS.

Obscure_Observer3d ago

It´s gonna be among best sellers on PS Store next year regardless.

raWfodog2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

I would love to see Lost Odyssey come over to PS5. I would definitely buy that again. That was the first game that I played on my 360. Loved the story and battle system. One of the best JRPGs of all time in my opinion.

You're not gonna include Ratchet and Clank Up Your Arsenal or Jak 3 on that list? Just change it to Fall 2004 Releases and include the masterpiece that is Sly 2.
