But OMG that tablet has me excited. Microsofts advancements will lead to increased competition. So consumers benefit as a result.

"I'll walk"
"you'll walk with a limp!"

So badass, Max Payne is freaking epic.

As a huge fan of Bungie, I think you're right. They knew they were losing that drive to create Halo, and this they moved on. 343 will have the fresh approach and wide eyes to create Halo like Bungie once did.

That's why I love Halo's sniper. 2 body shots to kill, or one headshot. And they're augmented super soldiers in super advanced armor, they can shrug off 1 body shot, but head shots are a universal language.

I won't have much time to game this fall, so I specifically wanted to see Halo 4 and Last of Us at E3. Both of the games I really want blew me away, so as a gamer I'm happy. If you have the time to play the tons of games that come out in fall and next spring, then I could see your view of the conferences differ from mine.

343 has stated these aren't Prometheans like the ones Greg Bear Introduced in his Forerunner Saga. Those Prometheans were organic, tradition Forerunners that were the Forerunners best Warriors. The Prometheans in Halo 4 are nothing like this. Cortana confirmed in the demo that they weren't organic. So those of you who didn't think they'd look like this were right, these aren't Forerunners in the tradition sense.

If anyone has read the Forerunner saga, it i...

I feel like you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

I already payed $15 for B2K. Offer me a discount and I'll jump all over Premium.

There's a line between looking forward to a game and praising it to the point where you come off as a blind fanboy. I absolutely can not wait for Halo 4, it looks incredible . But downplaying other games, systems and gamers make no one take what you have to say seriously. Not to mention posts like that continue the trend of constant back and forth bashing on this site. Also, the "well they did it too" mentally is childish. Wow, who am I kidding, this is N4G, fanboys are the life...

Whoa, that was awesome. I'm a huge sucker for particle effects.

Honestly as a Halo fan, seeing the franchise go to a new developer was troublesome, but 343 has proved themselves. And as a fan of the deeper Halo fiction, Im glad 343 is putting more emphasis on bringing deeper fiction through in the games, and making it all feel important.

Time to play Halo 1,2 and 3 again, and reread Crytum, Primordium and Glasslands. Hurry up November!

Vertical maps like that ruin the flow of the game. Once the sword makes it up top, the game sucks. Since that team now camps the shit out of the top level, and every death you spawn at the bottom of the shitty map. No using lifts to get up quickly since they're being camped, got to run around the cat walks for 3 stories ans likely be picked off in the process. Just typing this makes me hate the map even more,

Big thing I didn't like in Halo Reach was bloom, good idea on paper, way to random in gameplay. What this led to was gunplay being less fun and responsive which led to more falling back on armor abilities. 343 has changed this.

The gunplay now looks solid, meaning that those with a good shot don't have to get screwed by a bad mechanic like bloom in Reach. Shooting will be the best tactic, not relying and some armor ability and mod. The armor abilities are largely tone...

The translation from concept art to actual ingame graphics has been done incredibly here. Bravo 343, if I had a website I would have made a nice comparison article about it already.
