i watched ep 1. i will say the cgi are competent for a tv series.

nowadays ppl are spoilt by big budget cgi movies they have very very high unrealistic expectation to see such high calibre cgi everywhere.

overall the story didnt wow me... but as a game fan its nice to see master chef in action. the remove helmet was a surprise to me though i though it would be better to keep the suspense as in the game....

well have to wait for nx few eps to know this show swim or sink....

To go over everything
They say that time's supposed to heal ya
But I ain't done much healing

Time to dust off my gauntlet, forgot how to play liao

the classic halo theme is hauntingly beautiful as ever.

I thought the pilot was pretty good

They really nailed the opening with the Spartan insertion and MC jumping from the dropship. Hair stand sia.

Only thing I thought was weird is MC removing his helmet.

Each subsequent episode Master Chief keeps showing more skin, first the helmet, then the top after that completely naked. Lol

watched this recently and i rate it 9/10 if skip the asian actors side plot , that's very forced in by the "diversity" california trend

the domineering height of the spartan costume , i went imdb to check , the 2 actors are 1.96m and actress 1.91m
when they move around and fight , it felt more like power-rangers era of kids tv show

I did not play any halo game before except for a side scrolling shooter created by 3rd party to clone metal slug series ....
know the aliens got blue energy sword and energy rifles .... the lead character ride a open top jeep
other than these info i went in fresh ..... the technology and lore displayed are intriguing to me

mmmm....i think it could be better if master chef didnt show face. this version makes master chef like not so mysterious and not so overpowering.
