We here at the fukerton are always looking for new material. We are willing to bribe YOU to get it. Do you have a link that is Fukerton worthy? A video? Can you get Big Boi to notice me on twitter? Can you get Kotaku to pick up on one of our interviews? We need you to do your part to contribute to this site. You give us something worth while? You will pick up a copy of Halo 3:ODST.
The Fukerton has done several interviews lately that are internet worthy. Get one of them picked up. We are always looking for good videos, links, and other horseshit. Leave us with something in the comments section. You got a little sister that is a gymnast? Let us teach her what the name if this site actually means. Any of that could net you a free video game. Good luck and may the best pervert win!!

The Halo franchise is a juggernaut. The only danger the franchise is generally in is drowning it’s creators under an avalanche of cash. That’s why it was strange that the developer of Halo Wars was promptly shut down my Microsoft. The game posed an interesting dilemma: turn a first rate FPS into a first rate RTS. Until this point, real time strategy games and gaming consuls went together about as useful as common sense in the radio business. No one could pull it off. Dave and his crew have taken a huge step towards ending that line of thinking. Halo Wars is very good. Graphics, sound, story and characters. This game has it all. It’s very cool to be able to discuss a game of this magnitude with the man most responsible for it’s creating. To hear the Fukerton’s exclusive interview with Dave Pottinger, click HERE.

Now THIS is what Halo should be. Less blue blood and pink armor. A squad based shooter in the Covenant ravaged universe in between Halo 2 and 3? You had me at Brute Chieftan. Halo 3 was a huge let down for me. As much as I liked Halo 2, they never really captured the same feeling as playing through the original campaign. That’s why I LOVE the idea of a new concept based in the Halo Universe. Now if we can just stay away from any levels from inside the “Grave Mind” or “The Library,” then we are getting some where. There were rumors that this game was going to be a download on XBOX live. Kotaku.com puts that to rest with the pic above and the quote below:
There’s your man. New hero, new campaign and all that. Oh, and no, as you can see by the fact this is box art, this won’t be made available as a downloadable pack.
Simple. To the point. If you missed the trailer for the game, that’s out too. Microsoft has a pretty good thing going here. With Gears, Halo, Bioshock and Mass Effect all being solid exclusive fanchises (Bioshock being ported to PS3 a YEAR later doesnt count), they have the best exclusive titles in the game on lockdown and can release one or two each year. The sales figures don’t lie. Sony should just take it’s ball and go home. They lost exclusivity GTA, they lost exclusivity to Tekken, they lost exclusivity to Final Fantasy. As Lil Flip, a noted philosopher and orator once said: “Game Over.”

It seems like like Bungie really did have more juice than everyone thought at E3. I loved the OG Halo game and had a lot of fun with Halo 2 online. It just got to be a childish more of the same in Halo 3, and I got sick and tired of the screaming 13 year olds on multi-player. If what Gamespot says is true, it seems that Bungie is getting it’s shit together and might just be playable again. At least for this guy.
…the Bungie representative said the studio is currently at work on three distinct projects, “some familiar, some not…some on a closer horizon, some quite far off.” One of those projects is likely the rumored Master Chief-free, squad-based tactical Halo spin-off, which a source told GameSpot is “a cross between Ghost Recon and Gears of War” and has a “less cartoony, more bloody, violent, and grim” aesthetic.
Ghost Recon and Gears of War, huh? Less cartoony and more violent? Blowing away Brutes? That’s something I can get behind. That’s like saying I’m going to combine Kim Kardashian’s body with Oktoberfest Beer and Transformers 2. That much awesome is going to be tough to handle without savaging myself to death.
