Oni: The lost Halo game

Oni (video game)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oni_%28video_game%29

Oni is a third-person action game developed by Bungie West, a division of Bungie. Released in 2001, it was Bungie West's only game. It broke new ground by blending third-person shooting with hand-to-hand combat, resulting in a unique, yet familiar game for third-person shooter enthusiasts. In 1999, while still in development, Oni won the Game Critics Awards for Best Action/Adventure Game. Due to difficulties in debugging and the general unplayability of a fighting game over any less reliable network than a LAN at the time, multiplayer was omitted from the released version.

The game's universe is heavily influenced by Mamoru Oshii's anime film Ghost in the Shell.[2] The main characters Konoko and Commander Griffin look similar to the film's protagonists Motoko Kusanagi and Daisuke Aramaki. Dark Horse Comics published a comic-book version of Oni as a four-issue limited series, the first issue of which was bundled with the Windows version of the game.

ONI > HALO

[Waxer3929]

OMG the word ONI is in it, and it's also in HALO, and there's plasma rifles and similar graphics in relation to Halo CE, not to mention super-soldiers, robot AI's, cloaking, and a plethora of purple.

This MUST MEAN... IT'S CONNECTED IN EVERY WAY TO THE HALO STORYLINE!!!

Give me a break! Even IF it was, it doesn't help explain anything. I'm not going to lie, the ending was so incredibly a let down and doesn't fit at all in the Halo Mythos.

Game is great, not enough like it, ending not so much.

This game is also for the mac, but it is a bit too old to play on most machines. I have the game up in my shelf for the mac, but I can't play it for that reason.

Oni and Marathon does not exist in the Halo universe. There is however a lot of references in Halo to these two games. Bungie just loves to make references, get over it people. Why does everything have to be connected through the storyline? Isn't the connections through similaritys and references enough?

@Thugboy1997 What are you talking about?! Oni takes place in the 21st century, about 2032... spartans dont have anything to do with it. Spartan 1s are the actual spartans trained in Sparta, spartan 2s are the first spartans in the halo universe...WOW! dont say things you dont even know.

[Thugboy1997]

it actually is related to halo. ONI takes place in 2500. the human-covenant war began in 2525. Plus there r spartan 1 soldiers in the game ONI. Spartan 1 soldiers r the 1st spartan soldiers ever trained. Master cheif is a spartan 2. Plus it makes perfect sense bcuz theres a time gap in the halo novel "The Fall of Reach" and ONI fills that time gap.

@ngvgnDOTcom ONI in halo is a reference to the game.

[Fryman28b]

That's like saying Halo is a Marathon sequel because it's got the Marathon symbol in it

[77PROMETHUS77]

@ngvgnDOTcom "Oni" in Oni is not at all related to "ONI - the Office of Naval Intelligence" in Halo.

[Cbridge1998]

[gahalo123]
