It’s not Thursday, but this play in Halo 5 is definitely a throwback. https://t.co/LllyjY1NPr

Halo 5: Guardians Visualizer

I liked it.

Seems like they did a good job of keeping a 60FPS lock, but sacrificed everything else yo do so.

SHOCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alright, I'm hyped.

CGI scene of them running down the snow is so stupid and killed my hype, but the trailer's end brought it back.

HALO!

No clue, but earliest would be next Tuesday.

Review embargo is the day before. Might be a bad sign, but not necessarily. Sony has a policy where all games have 1 day embargos, so maybe Microsoft has started doing something similar.

Is Halo 5 short again?
Halo 5 - Full campaign mission gameplay videos - NeoGAF

QuoteIGN recently put out all the videos with no commentary voiceover, just unedited pure campaign gameplay. Tons of spoilers abound, watch at your own risk.Mission 1 - Team Osiris (30 min): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_E1pyqXRwwkMission 2 - Blue Team (36 min): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uh6flvefc5MMission 3 - Glassed (18 min): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKQ5H7CBA1UMission 8 - Swords of Sanghelios (19 min): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HDzytOqCxs

Halo 5 is 15 missions. The longest of these four missions is 36 minutes. If every mission was that long, the game would be 9 hours long. Not too short, but short.

The average of these four missions is 26 minutes, which points to Halo 5 being around 6 and a half hours long.
