The closest game that comes to mind based on your description is L4D.

Waypoint's up on the iOS store

ATLAS is an in-app purchase

app is nice, but I'm not a fan of how a ton of UI elements aren't made with Retina in mind and look low-res as hell

Gooo. I am a retina snob now and refuse to use low res apps. Bummer. I won't be playing Crimson Steam Pirates til they update it too, and I paid for that one.

Edit: App is unresponsive and lacks inertial scrolling. It doesn't quite feel like an "app" either. Needs more like reading Waypoint content and such. I appreciate the effort, but I dunno...

Games that seem as if they would be anyway similar:
Read Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare

 

[The Henery]

Fuck all these slags at the vgas Chief or BUST.

Watching Ninja, fuck th ehaters

 

[Tashi]

*Reluctantly turns on VGA*
*Zelda and Miyamoto! Awesome*
*Dumbshit with a sword and fruit*
*ugh*

 

[A27_StarWolf]

do we know FOR SURE Halo 4 won't show up?

 

[Slightly Live]

do we know FOR SURE Halo 4 won't show up?

Yes.

 

[wwm0nkey]

Kiki Wolfkill is there if that counts for anything which I doubt it does.

Yup.
Good Miyamoto segment and quick cut to Felicia Day embarrassing herself and all of us.

Really? Left 4 Dead doesn't in anyway more closely resemble it?

Compare that to the TLOS screenshot The L4D shot is not ingame, obviously, but Zoey is a student afaik and look, a grizzled old man.

 

[A27_StarWolf]

Yes.

but... Kiki Wolfkill is there... and I'm going to spell it that way

 

[senador]

^^ Wow that's not L4D? Geez...

The VGAs sounds like a dud this year. I had no excitement and didn't even realize they were tonight. I thought they were saying they'd be awesome this year. :/

Oh you mean that multiplayer game with a barebones narrative.
No, I think there's more to Naughty Dog's game.

 

[Tashi]

My theory is that the voting for the most anticipated game of 2012 is fixed and we'll get a Halo trailer. It's already been planned out.

^ girl is new naughty dog game is straight up Ellen Page

I'm sorry but I think they will do something with Halo 4.

 

[The Henery]

Wow mlg is exciting with no bloom

 

[kittens]

Maybe it's because I usually have no interest in zombie games and so I'm not burnt out on the conventions/cliches, but I think The Last of Us looks fucking awesome. Love the tone, atmosphere, and what we've seen of the characters.

Masseffect 3 already won

David & Frankie have been so clear so many times...

 

[Hypertrooper]

Halo 4 was nominated for MW 2012. But hey you don't have to be there, because you won't get an award for it.

 

[Hydranockz]

Sorry, my comment below the picture about gameplay was actually related to the L4D fan-photo thing. I was merely comparing the strikingly similar settings.

Narrative or not, it's still rather similar. It's like comparing BF3 to any number of modern war shooters if not more apt

I'm making up for a lack of Halo 4 goodness as we speak.

 

[Trasher]

Todd Howard just confirmed ants are crawling on some of the logs in Skyrim on the pre-show. That's pretty awesome.

GOTY

 

[Tashi]

Masseffect 3 already won

For real?

So I can turn off my TV then?

 

[StalkerUKCG]

Transformers Trailer song Since it was clearly the shit

 

[MrBig]

David & Frankie have been so clear so many times...

It's obviously a ruse to make the surprise as shocking as possible :lol

 

[A27_StarWolf]

That isn't as crazy as it sounds

 

[senador]

That isn't as crazy as it sounds

It really isn't. Any hint that they would be and cover is blown. I don't expect anything though.

 

[bobs...onGaf]

Frankie... good move not associating Halo 4 with the VGA's, they have somehow hit a new low this year lol.

 

[Plywood]

Justin Bieber in The Last Of Us = GOTY

 

[The Librarian]

This.

Pretty much, they skipped through most of the awards in less than 5 minutes. Its a real fucking disgrace

 

[Havok]

Five minutes? Over half the awards were given away in a 30 second montage, and more before the thing even started.

Surprise, this thing is totally insulting and Geoff Keighley is defending it with all his might against naysayers.

 

[Tashi]

If Frankie comes in here and says, "Guys, Halo 4, VGA's, stay tuned" I won't watch live. I'll wait until the trailer releases.

 

[Kuroyume]

Yet you people continue to watch every year and I ask myself why...

 

[Tunavi]

Turned on VGA Stream for a minute

I'm expecting tears on the Waypoint forums.

No shit. Guy wants to make his money, can't blame him.

 

[Steelyuhas]

I watched part of it one year, and it was enough to never want to see anything that awful ever again.

 

[Slightly Live]

Well let's see.

• You have given us NOTHING. why should your fans believe anything you say, you say that the halo 4 trailer was leaked... sure. then the best opportunity to bring a trailer out comes and you Yoink! REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING.
  
• dont stop watching yet i detect a whole lot of halo references and teasing
  
• I'VE LOST HOPE TONIGHT
  
• 343 WAKE UP!
  
• HALO 4 DIDN'T WIN HOW PISSED ARE YOU
  
• I FEEL 343 IS TAUNTING US...
  
• Extremely DISAPPOINTING 343, Bad Play On Your Part
  
• Halo reach was somewhat of a failure ((not completely) cough cough forge/ custom games) everyone knows that, halo needs some redemption a big chance like the VGAs would of done it NOPE. Sadly even I don't care no more after seeing other trailers at VGA halo is becoming a pit of failures. Didn't want to say it but other games are just better

=/

 

[Trasher]

"A big chance like the VGAs" lolololol!

The VGAs are a pile of dogshit and couldn't mean any less than they already do.

 

[Tashi]

Stop Dani, I feel forced to go in each thread and troll my ass off now :lol

 

[StalkerUKCG]

Well let's see.



=/

Jesus, glad i dont go to the 343 forums if that's the kind of idiots they have.

Wow

 

[Karl2177]

I didn't mind it when there was Halo stuff to be announced, but otherwise it's terrible. I'm still not hyped for Halo 4 nearly as much as I was for Reach(which is nowhere near that of Halo 3).

 

[Slightly Live]

"A big chance like the VGAs" lolololol!

343 just shot themselves in the foot.

I don't know how much the rest of you know about the Halo community (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is with Call of Duty where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Halo, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the Halo community, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase Halo 4, nor will they purchase any of 343's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but 343 has alienated an entire market with this move.

343, publicly apologize and show a trailer or you can kiss your business goodbye.

 

[Kibbles]

Halo 4 Reveal on Monday just to lol @ the VGAs.

I proudly did not waste my time watching that shit.

The thing I like most about this meme is that the post that started it was barely even acknowledged in its thread.

This is the most versatile meme.

The taco is the most versatile fruit

 

[Hydranockz]

Frankie can thank me later. This one image can be used to mitigate the tears of so many posters on those forums.

This is also my submission for the Halo 4 Chief that was requested earlier.

 

[The Librarian]

Hydranockz, is that your interpretation of MC's armor for Halo 4?

VGAs are over. Avatars please.

 

[Hydranockz]

Hydranockz, is that your interpretation of MC's armor for Halo 4?

Yes! Square kneecaps are all the rage on Forerunner Shield Worlds. Also, Cortana modified the DMR with a larger barrel to increase bullet spread. This is to compensate for MC's faulty HUD display incorrectly telling him where his bullets were going. His 'package' has been optimised for inter-personell communications.
