Things that make you go "Hmm."
Posted By: AngelicLionheart <AngelicLionheart@gmail.com>Date: 7/11/11 8:45 p.m.

In Response To: One Step Forward and Two Steps Back. (padraig08)


I definitely disagree with Phil Spencer on this.

Not gonna lie, words like this from someone in his position make my heart start beating faster, sweat start beading on my forehead, and I start to get the shakes (exaggeration, obviously).

I don't want my beloved Halo universe to be commanded by someone who worships money. Who only cares about the dollar bills that go into his wallet. I have no idea whether Phil Spencer is someone like that, but being that ODST was so awesome an experience and Reach was so great itself, I have to think to myself: is he judging based on the value of the game? Or is he judging based on how much money it got him? The two criteria are not the same thing, though they often correlate. Deus Ex on PC is hailed as the best PC game of all time, but its sales didn't reflect that in the slightest. Should it be turned into something awful so that some suit somewhere gets more money? If all you care about is money, then sure! Money money money om nom nom moar moar moar. But that would be a tragedy.

I is scared now... :{
