  • New game engine, putting aside concerns of Epic exclusives and such, seems fine,

    but changing the name, it’s not to signify the game studio will focus on halo, 343’s name is based on the franchise; “New name, new philosophy”, it’s trying to distract from the past trying to say “under new management”, but in recent times companies have used this as smoke and mirrors, hiding that nothing has changed.

    I’ll believe new philosophy when a game comes out that isn’t trying to be destiny or cod and doesn’t have 50% of the game missing at launch because of mangled management that was fine shipping an incomplete game and never finishing it.










  • Fair, that’s the part where I think a parent needs to have the will and authority to say no to their kid, but I understand that can be difficult. This may do some good but as I am sure some loopholes will form and it doesn’t forbid ads 100%, it wont stop Fast Food ads. Even if fast food wasn’t directly advertised, I believe there is more factors, like the availability of healthy options, many families don’t have the time or money to make good healthy meals. This law is a good thing, but I personally don’t see it as a huge win, just a patch that will be touted to solve problems it doesn’t address.


  • As I said, I think availability and awareness are as big of factors. I 100% believe most Europeans have better access to healthier foods then many americans. Granted ads may spur kids to bug thier parents but if parents did better at saying no, and could give thier kids better options. I think it’s not just a personal responsibility but a communal, a government responsibility to ensure access to information and food are available. When no better options are made available, there is a problem.
