Take a free look at theHaloseries
The first episode of Paramount’sHaloseries premiered today. And if you’re waiting in the wings because you don’t have a Paramount+ sub, there’s some good news in the form of a free trial.
TheHaloTV series is also releasing at a weekly cadence, rather than all at once. The first episode, “Contact,” premiered today. A new one will follow each week, through nine episodes. If you want to free trial the whole thing, well, you might be waiting until May.
Xbox has been putting out a few of these free trials for Game Pass Ultimate users. Also announced recently was athree-month trial for Marvel Unlimited. They’re not the only ones, either; PlayStation ran asix-month trial offer of Apple TV+for those who bought a PlayStation 5, too.
Reviews came in for the Paramount+HaloTV series today, and reviews seem a little rough.Wiredsays thatHalojoins the ranks of failed video game adaptations, andThe Vergedidn’t seem keen on its attempts to humanize Master Chief.
I’m an avid connoisseur of game adaptions, be they live-action or animated, so this has been on my radar. Honestly, hearing that it’s not stellar lifts some weight of expectation off it for me. Now, I can happily tune in to see just how weird it gets with the source material. I’m not sure anything can be as bad asStreet Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li.
