    Podtacular 879: When Reach Fell

    This week we play a little catch up after being off for a couple of weeks. While the Halo TV show has concluded, we’re taking this episode to discuss up through episode four. A bit of a shorter one, but we’ll wrap up the rest of the TV show in the next episode.

    Podtacular 878: Silver Sanctioned

    Better late than never as we delve into Season 2 of the Halo TV show taking a look at the first episode. Making the initial connections to the game lore, we start to see the development of the events of Reach with the silver lining. Since GT was out last week, we got to play some Custom Games for Fraggin’ Friday last week, which went off. Thanks for joining us!

    Podtacular 877: Games Leapt Over

    While we missed last week due to Dust Storm being sick, an interesting topic came up in the Halo Community. A former 343 Industries developer shared on Twitter that 20 to 30 ideas for Halo games were pitched and turned down by Microsoft over the last 12 years, begging the questions, “What kinds of games would the Halo community love to see Halo explore across other genres or stories in the Halo Universe?” and “Why were so many projects turned down when Microsoft has so many studios with various expertise that could expand the Halo franchise?” We take some time to explore these questions and catch up on the latest Halo news.

    Podtacular 875: Operation Content

    To kick off the new year, 343 Industries hosted their first Spartan Chatter of 2024 updating u s on what’s coming in the next content update. Moving away from the season cadence, Halo Infinite will now have 4 to 6-week operations to deliver content more frequently as it’s ready. The Spirit of Fire Operations lands January 30th, bringing updates to Forge, playlists refreshes and a new map Illusion.

    Podtacular 874: Holiday Catch Up

    Welcome to a new year, Spartans! This year is shaping up to be quite a year, leading off on a great streak of content on Halo Infinite, the next season of Halo Infinite competition and the Halo TV Series, and so much community content still blowing our minds. Sadly, it looks like we are at the end of the road for MCC development, but community mods are thriving, not to mention our podcast hosts have finally completed Cursed Halo.

An Oldie and Still Goodie

This was the first Halo Podcast I listened to, starting back in 2011 leading up to Halo 4. I've dipped in and out of listening throughout the years through no fault of the podcast itself, (mainly due to 343's stewardship of the video-game franchise but that's a separate issue), and the rapport Dust Storm and GodzillaT have never missed a beat. Covering everything Halo-related, it's awesome to hear about the updates I want to know about in a more distilled, less self-congratulatory manner than the 343 Community Updates, as well as learn about community/fan projects I know nothing about or Forge updates which I am equally as ignorant. Thanks for the great pod throughout the years and keep up the awesome work!
