A real overheated plasma pistol, if you catch my drift. Unfortunately, the space shit in Halo? Sub-par. Even for those who, like myself, are more than willing to sign up for 40 minutes to an hour of anything as long as there’s some cool-looking space shit involved. Like my colleagues have already suggested, it’s quite hard to take in these first two episodes of Halo and find a reason to keep going. In other words, if your conception of Halo is a guy in green armor doing space shit congratulations, you finally have your Halo show. But it’s also not a show for people to know too much, because otherwise you might get confused why none of this seems to match up with the story of the games that have been released over the last 20 years. There’s little to no actual explanation of who or what is going on, so you better know the Master Chief and the Covenant. This is a show for people who have, at best, a passing familiarity with the games. There’s some kind of relic, it may or may not have something to do with a ring world, which might also be a weapon. There’s definitely a guy in recognizable green armor, and he definitely fights some aliens, but beyond that it’s a bit of a blur. Or maybe he just watched his friend play, he can’t quite remember.
HALO NEW EPISODES SERIES
Halo is like an adaptation of a video game series as handled by someone who played a few levels of it once in college. But there are certainly plenty of threads to pull at in the first two outings of the show. With just two episodes screened to critics it’s hard to know just what Halo hopes to be at this point, particularly as the franchise is undergoing its own self-assessment. In the middle of all that is Spartan soldier Master Chief (Pablo Schreiber) and insurrectionist Kwan Ha (Yerin Ha), who both find themselves at odds with the war waging around them.
HALO NEW EPISODES PLUS
The Paramount Plus show debuted two episodes at SXSW on Monday ahead of its broader streaming premiere on March 24.įrom the beginning, the talent involved has resisted calling it an exact adaptation, preferring instead to think of it as a world built off the framework of the Halo games: an interstellar war between the religious aliens known as the Covenant and the human United Nations Space Command.
Nine games, nine years, a network switch, and plethora of memes later, and Halo is finally premiering. At E3 2013 Steven Spielberg announced he and Microsoft were planning to adapt Halo into a TV show.
