Some Halo 4 Campaign Composer Level in the video. Some cool achievement stuff going on in this package.

 

[Scooby]

343 please stop this is too much

 

[Orca]

343 please stop this is too much

Haha, last month "WHY IS THERE NO INFO? SOMETHING IS WRONG" and this month...overload.

 

[Treythalomew]

I did not expect them to give so much care to the campaign stuff too. Score and speed leaderboards for levels is super cool. The in-game stuff is above and beyond what I expected from things like the Halo 4 campaign.

 

[Bsigg12]

Just posted in the Halo 2 footage thread, but the campaign splits are freaking awesome.

 

[Computer]

Nothing tops this collection. It blows me away every time I think about all the content. Such a good time to be a Halo fan.

 

[prophecy0]

They're really going all out for this release, which is awesome.

 

[OverHeat]

Wtf it look better then destiny...I said wow.

 

[UnluckyKate]

great tool for speedrunners !

 

[U2NUMB]

this game... gonna be so fantastic!

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

GOTY

 

[BeforeU]

The wait, this wait man, this fucking wait is killing me

When I will get this game, I am going to play around with the interface for some time before starting any game. This is a pure collectors item.

 

[BruiserBear]

They seem to be covering every base with this game.

 

[Captainbojanglesiii]

Wow. Halo 4 looks amazing.

 

[rrc1594]

60$?

 

[jetjevons]

Real time rival co-op? Yes please!

 

[Anion]

Man, they are treating this series like a princess. And its awesome

 

[Papercuts]

Damn, that's well implemented. I always loved campaign scoring so that's great to see.

 

[Death Metalist]

 

[Tengrave]

Insane the amount of content in this game. $60 seems like nothing for what's in that. Brilliant

 

[ProvenDeadly]

I feel like I am ripping 343 off by only giving them 60 dollars.

 

[jacobeid]

Wooooow.

This might turn into a day one even though I'll have no time for it.

 

[Toa TAK]

Campaign stuff?

CAMPAIGN STUFF. I will fail my semester when I get my hands on this.

 

[scytherage]

343 please stop this is too much

I agree. I am going to complain. This is all just wrong. There should be less stuff because we can't take it anymore, not enough money.

Somebody call the press, someone should write an article, maybe get that Arthur Gies guy from Polygon because he's pretty good at being cynical --- they should title it "There's too much stuff for Xbox One coming out, and this is just wrong". This will be a true service to gamers if they just don't release too many good things all at once.

Maybe they can even make it good Yahoo / Facebook clickbait and title it: "Here's Why Xbox One is oppressive to gamers' wallets"

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

This is how you do a remaster/HD collection

 

[Ricky Ricardo]

Man, they are treating this series like a princess. And its awesome

The Mantle of Responsibility, for all things Halo, belongs to 343 Industries alone!

 

[RoKKeR]

343 please stop this is too much

Actually though, so much info starting to flow now. Can't fucking wait for release.

The UI is ace.

 

[Twin Tails]

Wooooow.

This might turn into a day one even though I'll have no time for it.

how is it not already a day one purchase

 

[Gaz_RB]

The definition of a system seller.

 

[Toa TAK]

how is it not already a day one purchase

My question exactly.

I mean, you're getting Halo 1-3 on the One.

That alone should make anyone jump out of their chair with GLEE.

 

[Diablohead]

343 please stop this is too much

 

[ProvenDeadly]

My question exactly.

I mean, you're getting Halo 1-3 on the One.

That alone should make anyone jump out of their chair with GLEE.

And 4. And Halo 5 Beta. And Halo 2 Anniversary. And Halo Nightfall.

 

[Nori Chan]

Idk how this game can get any better ;_;

 

[Gaz_RB]

And 4. And Halo 5 Beta. And Halo 2 Anniversary. And Halo Nightfall.

Yeah seriously. I would pay $60 for Halo 2 Anniversary alone. The MCC is seriously one of the greatest love letters to fans of anything that I've ever seen.

 

[Bornstellar]

This is far beyond my wildest dreams.

 

[NullPointer]

Nothing tops this collection. It blows me away every time I think about all the content. Such a good time to be a Halo fan.

Damn yes.

They're packing this thing with far more than anybody would have imagined. So many great ideas, overhauls, consolidations and small touches. Every time you think they're done, nope, there's more.

And that jump into achievement thing is the kind of thing that should become standard in Xbox games.

 

[statham]

They are taking this two steps beyond what is expected. Nice job everyone who worked on this.

 

[Zeyphersan]

The definition of a system seller.

Yep, I'm picking up a bone when this drops

 

[Steverulez]

Halo 4 looked great.

Such a great collection, worth much more than what they're asking. No-one tell Microsoft...

 

[Welfare]

Fuck it. My GOTY right here.

 

[AJLma]

This collection alone is making me want to buy an Xbox One.

 

[SFenton]

Holy shit, upressed Halo 4 looks better than Destiny.

 

[Blueblur1]

The medals display in the HUD looks awful in Halo 4 as well. What a bummer.

 

[Thoraxes]

This collection alone is making me want to buy an Xbox One.

Me too!

 

[Toa TAK]

And 4. And Halo 5 Beta. And Halo 2 Anniversary. And Halo Nightfall.

It's the ultimate Halo gift for the fans. Be still my beating everything.

 

[Seventy70]

There's so much stuff packed into this collection that it almost sounds to good to be true. A part of me can't stop thinking that they will fuck something up somewhere that will ruin the whole thing. This is one of the few times of a company that has done everything exactly the right way. If you told me a couple of years ago about a collection with Halo 1,2,3, and 4 all in 1080/60, I would have said that it would never happen.

 

[giancarlo123x]

This game is the reason I will own a xbox one eventually.

 

[see5harp]

Whenever I get 3 games at once in one of those buy 2 get 1 sales around the holiday, I never have enough time. These next couple months are gonna be crazy.

 

[soxinthebox]

Holy shit, upressed Halo 4 looks better than Destiny.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves

 

[BigTnaples]

Halo is the reason I got my XBO day one. Looking forward to this so much. Hoping 343i eventually do a Halo Reach Anniversary/Remaster as well.

A Reach, ODST and Halo Wars pack would be great.

Hoping Halo 5 lives up to its potential. Hoping we see a realtime trailer for the SP soon. The announcement trailer was the first Halo trailer in a very long time I wasnt a fan of.
