Well If im not mistaken Sundace did say that each game will get a chance at main stage this season so can we please stop making it about halo vs SC2 or PC vs Console gaming...Regardless SC2 needs the space, last event their was alot people without chairs.

Good for SC2.. Sucks for Halo.. but its entirely Bungies fault tbh I must have played thousands of Hours of the first 3 Halo's combined. Then Reach came out... I played it online for 2 days and couldn't have cared.. the maps.. the gameplay... awful.

My girlfriend is visiting this weekend.. so I'm not going to get to see... lets count this shall we.

1. MLG (DRG!! noo!!)
2. EVO
3. GSL Finals.

I guess I haven't seen her in 5 months, I should cut her some slack.. everytime she's not looking a stream is getting thrown up in the background however lol.

Hopefully SC2 breaks more MLG records and justifies it's spot. and how I wish E-sports fans would get along. whether you be RTS, FPS or Fighing.. just watch and enjoy them all.

Here's hoping Halo 4 is good, because Halo: Reach is terrible as a competitive game. (Been an MLG follower and player since 04,)


Can anyone tell me what's wrong about Reach? It's an honest question. I am a very casual FPS player but I had lots of fun playing Halo:Reach with my friends. Just once though.

about time! seriously though how much larger is sc2 community than the halo one? In comparison, it is safe to say that noone cares about halo, its all about sc2
Let a man play chess, and tell him that every pawn is his friend. Let him think both bishops holy. Let him remember happy days in the shadows of his castles. Let him love his queen. Watch him lose them all.

Yeah, I always wonder about this. Everyone talks shit about Reach, but no gives reason why, I love that game.

They added in the bloom mechanic and the melee physics are absolute garbage. Halo 3's aiming dropped the skill ceiling about a story, the bloom made it a basement.

Why are so many europeans so hostile to any game they do not play? We get it, you don't own a console..now stop complaining.

There's nothing wrong with halo reach, imo.

The halo community is different from the starcraft community in that no one actually listens to what the pros say. The most vocal people hate on the game for no reason.

Interviews with halo pros since the halo reach switch

Check out the timeout with ______ links. Especially with Walshy, who was a halo pro since halo 1.

Most of the pros agree halo reach is a much better game than halo 3 and a good competitive game in general.

On topic though. I'm glad for Starcraft 2 because imo the game with the most fans deserves center stage, not the game with the best mlg legacy.

Great news for starcraft 2 .

Halo has been great platform for E-sport there is no denying therefore it deserve a slight appreciation from all of us SC2 fans.

That being said had halo not exist other games would simply takes it place (the game required effort and some degree of skill but not to the point that it is unique)

Props for MLG for making this possible.
My only problem with it is mr Bitter + Husky combo they are quite simply said terrible casters.
Husky however bring a huge casual fan base to SC2 so despite my intense hatred of him(cause largely by his ignorance of the game mechanics) I do have some respect for his rather large contribution on E-sport.

Mr bitter on the other hand seems to have a very heavy bias on zerg race and been known to rant on how other race death-ball is "unbeatable" or too "strong" for zerg (despite infestors proven that otherwise these days).
I hope Mrbitter to rid of his bias and show more professionalism while casting in MLG anaheim .

in a nutshell, halo 1 and 2 were great, 3 was ok, but reach added a bunch of dumb crap nobody wanted. MLGs settings are pretty good (besides the lame maps), but the regular matchmaking system in reach is terrible because of virtually no rank system and broken armor abilities. The only genuine problem with MLGs settings is the melee system which they cant fix.

Out of the box, each halo besides CE has had a horrendous melee system, but reach is the first one they never bothered to patch. Without bleed-through damage, its impossible to tell what is going on in a melee fight, and often times the person who should have died wins.

Didn't take too long for sc2 to take over the main stage. Still funny to believe that Halo had it for as long as it did.
