Halo Episode 7 Puts The Master Chief On The Backburner For A Detour Into The Desert

I’ll admit, I had a bad feeling about this episode right when the first-look images dropped, featuring a glaring absence of the Master Chief, Dr. Halsey, or anyone else that the overarching storyline of “Halo” has focused on up to this point. Those concerns only increased as early as the “Previously on ‘Halo’” segment, which took […]

Halo Episode 5 Brings Back The Action As War Breaks Out And The Chief Faces A Reckoning

Now that’s more like it.I’ll admit I’ve found myself surprisingly charmed by the unique direction that season 1 showrunners Steven Kane and Kyle Killen have taken this “Halo” series so far, flaws and all.

Easter Eggs You May Have Missed In Halo Episode 1

After such a long and tortured path to making its way to a screen near you, you didn’t think the creators behind “Halo” would neglect to include all sorts of Easter eggs and references — no matter how obvious or how niche — throughout the long-awaited premiere episode of the new Paramount+ series, did you?

Halo Makes First Contact In A Messy, If Promising Premiere

Looking back, it’s remarkable to think about how a first-person shooter called “Halo: Combat Evolved” triumphantly arrived on the scene in 2001 and changed the medium forever, boldly introducing us to that eponymous ringworld within its very first few seconds and wasting no time moving the action to one of the most well-realized settings of any […]
