    Re: Halo 4

    Lol so many contradictions, ive read stuff like the following in almost every review:

    "*this sounds like the formula of Halo: Combat Evolved, that seems to be the plan. Halo 4 might not recapture the wonder of that first ringworld, but it’s not*for want of trying. The game presents us with another mysterious environment in the Forerunner planet, which is at first pointedly drab – as if making a glib comment on Halo 3’s muddy Flood bowels – before exploding into a series of lush, colourful scenes.The trump card is the same as always: a sense of solidarity in movement and aiming that makes weighty sense of fighting through the bio-enhanced body of a supersoldier. And Halo 4’s focus is tightly pulled onto close-quarters encounters, highlighting this kinetic accomplishment. The grand staged battles favoured by the preceding sequels are gone, replaced by tightly mapped fights with small clusters of Prometheans and Covenant; the lessons of Assault On The Control Room have been learnt and are repeatedly put into practice."

    Definitely starting with campaign to get used to the new adjustments before hopping into MP. I mostly favor BTB as its a bit more relaxed and people tend to play less predictably. But I'll be trying all modes to see how they've been tweaked.

    its always the way. ive seen a bunch of mixed reviews on Spartan Ops aswell, we'll have to wait and see i suppose.

    and apparently, its gonna be 2gb to install the multiplayer and 1.5gb for each episode of Spartan Ops, and there is one episode due every week for 10 weeks - so to play everything outside of the campaign, youll need 17gb of spare memory

    I'll order it through amazon and have it on release day. I don't understand waiting in line to play a game 10 hours before it would be received by UPS.

    Especially when 8 of those hours are scheduled for sleeping.

    I will make maps on Halo 4.

    You know those pain in the *** one's where you either have to crouch-jump to the rock and it seems impossible, or Halo on Halo maps. If you don't know what I'm talking about then I will cry.

    Add me for Halo 4 MP etc etc

    Personally from what I've gathered it will be slightly more noob oriented (easier to get a kill).

    They are making "Sprinting" a permanent thing now.

    Jet packs are... A set destination. Not controllable to move wherever you want in mid-air.

    I was also told by my friend that the guns will drop from pods? This will make "Rushing to snipe" or whatever power wep you used to rush to a unique thing.

    Hope to see you Retribution! I just got home from pre-ordering it

    jetpacks sucking now = EPIC. hate the jetpack. this game is gonna be rediculous. if any of you halo fans havent watched the forward unto dawn series, you definetly should. its very well done. takes a couple episodes to really get goin but now episode 4 was epic, and i was just told todays episode 5 is sick as well. check it out if you havent.

    P.S. any of you trials dudes are welcome to hit me up and beast some people sometime...
