Lego Halo

Apparently Lego Halo is suppose to be coming out in the Fall of 2008. That might be enough to push me towards getting a 360.

That is certainly a system I want to get, but the supply-demand curve is too off for my liking right now.

Don't get the Nintendo Wii, get a PS3 or 360. The Wii fuggin sucks. My brother bought one last year and I hate it.

3rd person or 1st person?

I think 360 is definitely the way to go in my opinion. I'm not a fan of the Lego Starwars games, so I probably won't be getting this one either. There are a lot of fun games for the younger kids to play. When I was younger, I always liked the platformers (and still do), and the 360 has a very good one in Kameo. In addition, Banjo Threeie comes out in the fall, the first one was amazing. Then of course sports games are best on 360.

Wii is a good choice for kids too. Not too much to play so far, but games like Wario Ware and Super Mario Galaxy are great fun to play. This year will actually be huge for the Wii, with Mario Kart and Smash Bros. coming out. It's sports games obviously aren't as good. One key feature of the Wii is the Virtual Console. There are so many great games that I think kids would enjoy on Virtual Console for NES/SNES/N64/Genesis.

There is an article about it in the April 2008 issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly. Not sure if it is online, so I'll retype some of the key info

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Hardcore Halo fans (should) know the original didn't start out as a first-person shooter. Before we saw combat evolved through Master Chief's eyes, Halo was a third-person action game. Lego Halo is taking Bungie back to its roots, as 90 percent of the game will feature this perspective. The other 10 percent? Standard Halo. "While this is a third-person adventure, we still want to please our loyal fans. I can't spill everything now, but I will say that at least 10 percent will be the traditional first-person Halo you know and love." From what we gather, some classic levels (don't sweat - it won't be the Library) will be remade in blocky first person.

Like Lego Star Wars, you'll play as multiple characters during the campaign. Master Chief will no doubt be the main brick breaker, but also expect to see Avery J. Johnson, the Arbiter and even Chief's main virtual squeeze, Cortana. Just because Lego Halo chronicles the first three games, however, doesn't mean new characters won't be introduced. "New characters are definitely something we plan to include in Lego Halo. In one bonus mission, Master Chief will be battling the Covenant with Burt-041, the brother of Kurt-051 from the Halo: Ghosts of Onyx novel."</div>

Note: the quotes are from Lee Carlton the Senior Project Lead. He also said they started working on this shortly before Halo 3 was finished.

Like Halo, but even worse

Hmm, I really like my Wii. I was playing it constantly up until recent when I got DMC4. That's going to change though when I get Smash Bros. here within in the next 24hrs.
