New Halo destination planned for Live News

Xbox 360 News by Ellie Gibson

23 July, 2009

Good news, Halo buffs - Microsoft is launching a new "destination" on Xbox Live especially for you.

Titled Halo Waypoint, it will feature exclusive videos along with news, podcasts and screenshots.

You can also expect "a new challenge for Halo gamers with a career system and player rankings tied to both in-game and out-of-game accomplishments related to Halo".

Naturally, Halo Waypoint will premiere the new Halo Legends anime shorts announced earlier. It will also play host to some Making Of videos.

Halo Waypoint is due to launch this autumn.

"out-of-game accomplishments related to Halo"

What could that mean? I am intrigued a little now. I do love the features of the website, it'd be nice to see some of them on Live. And I do like making-of videos. I'll probably have a look at least.

Let the wars begin (again).

Will this be the start of more game specific areas within the dashboard or will it simply be Halo or whatever the #1 Microsoft Franchise is at the time?

Probably means stuff like that kid who made Spartan Armour and replica Halo weapons out of cardboard.

So can we expect to see Gears, Mass Effect, etc. getting these "destinations", as well?

I hope so, a Mass Effect theme dashboard or destination would be Buzz but mainly because I do like myself some Mass Effect
