Bungie's next project: Lego Halo

**Nuvian** · 03-02-2008

LucasArts isn't the only developer with a proclivity to "hit the bricks", it seems -- according to the latest issue of EGM, Bungie is currently working on a heretofore unannounced project in conjunction with Lego. The brainchild of this unholy union is -- as you've probably already guessed -- Lego Halo. Set to follow the entire storyline of the Halo trilogy, and featuring gameplay similar to the other games in the Lego crossover genre (with just a dash of traditional FPS fare mixed in), this chimera is sure to sell like hotcakes to fans of Master Chief and construction toys both -- if it actually existed, that is.

As many of our loyal tipsters (as well as one of our sister sites) didn't realize, this exclusive preview ran in the April edition of EGM -- the same edition which is infamous for its history of April Fools' skullduggery. Sorry to break your naïve heart, if you didn't see this coming -- but the only way you're going to get your hot little hands on Lego Halo is if you order it from a parallel universe. Would you mind picking up a copy of Mushroom Kingdom Hearts for us while you're over there?

Dude... If there was a Legos God of War game I would have to take a dump in a paper bag and mail it to Jaffe.

April Fools is tricking everyone these days.
EDIT: To make it more obvious, this is an April Fools joke from EGM. I.e., Lego Halo doesn't really exist.

I thought the LEGO series only copied off movies? StarWars, Batman, Indianna Jones?

**Nuvian** · 03-02-2008

well it says so in the text i quoted,didnt feel like making it in bold text,more fun that way,since not everyone bothers to read the whole text

**Tribunal** · 03-02-2008

This could be epic.

One, it's an April Fool's joke. This is the April issue of EGM, which is supposed to hit newstands (suscribers get their issues early) on March 11.
Two, it's also been posted before. http://ps3forums.com/showthread.php?...ight=LEGO+Halo

**MR_T** · 03-02-2008

**Lefein** · 03-02-2008

Wow, I'm glad that was an April Fools.. I actually like the Halo universe and the books are pretty good.

**Tyrien** · 03-02-2008

Psh.

Sorry but Bungie is getting arrogant. They're actually thinking that Halo is as big as Starwars? Sorry bungie. Halo is a fad. :/

This is the most stupid most ever. I nominate it for the HHall of Shame. I am embarrased for everyone that has read this.

why are you embarrassed for people who have read it? what did they do wrong?

**Tribunal** · 03-02-2008

Because some of us are taking the joke in stride.

**GartMon** · 03-02-2008

For me the fact that this was supposedly being developed by bungie themselves gives this away.

Bungie would not waste their time on a game like lego halo.

A 7+ year fad right?

Do you mind enlightening us all how long something must be popular for it to not be a fad?

Halo Lego would be completely bizarre, but I doubt any one could call a series which has seen each release consisently sell in the millions as being a 'fad', even if you don't like the game. What next Final Fantasy and GT are fads?

Lefein doesn't deserve to be disrespected like that in here, he's no rookie in these forums and he has an opinion, he dislikes the idea of a Lego Halo or a Lego GOW game, respect his opinion, agree or disagree but why insult him for when he's done absolutely nothing wrong other than expressing his opinion?

Whether it's in jest or not, respect goes a long way.

Respect is earned by me, not given away like a free bag of chips. And like him, I was expressing my opinion.

**SolidSnakeUS** · 03-03-2008

Honestly, if it was Lego Halo, I think Bungie shouldn't do it, but from the guys who did the other Lego games (forget the company's name).

If you are going to quote one of the most respected people on this forum, then ridicule their post, try doing it in a manner that doesn't make you out to be a fool.
