Halo Anniversary - tut tut Tesco.
« on: 11 November 2011, 20:07 »
So I've been looking really forward to Halo Anniversary, being a huge Halo fan. Got it preordered at Gamestation ages ago. Thought I'd pop into Tesco just to mooch around, and there to my surprise was Halo Anniversary, sitting there in its glory.

At a bargain price of £27.70 and getting it 4 days early, who am I to complain? :evil:

Didnt Tesco do this with Halo 3 and they got a massive fine of MS because of it.
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

no publicity is bad publicity as they say. Despite the fine just think how many people will rush down there to buy it..  and even if they cannot, they will remember to pick up some bread, milk, toothpaste and crap loads of double priced BOGOF sh!t

R32, that's a fair point. But even so, 4 days early is quite extreme. I'm not complaining though.

Just for the record, it plays exactly the same, but the graphics are awesome. Love the switch back to classic mode too.

Online co op can be very leggy at times but apart from that, it's awesome. You won't believe the difference in quality of graphics!

its an odd experience playing the revamped game... But a lot of fun. The enemies are all in the same places etc!

Its good to have the achievments to unlock, ive enjoyed a couple of the harder ones!

Likewise, getting achievements was a bonus. I only have two left but one is impossible. Complete the library without dying on heroic or harder. No chance!

That does sound like a tricky one, but a bit of methodical patience should see it done. The Library in 30mins on legendary has to be worse! I took a run through the level on easy and it took a little over 15 mins.... Its going to be a tough nut to crack!

I got the speed reader one on my first try through, just be patient with it. Bandana skull and unlimited shotgun ammo helps. :grin:
