Save the date!

November 6 is an important date in Halo’s vast and fascinating history. For the uninitiated, that was the day the Master Chief found a weapon, a parched Grunt stumbled upon the starship, and Staff Sergeant Avery Junior Johnson discovered the answer to one of life’s most perplexing questions. He wasn’t born knowing what the ladies like, you know. (Frankie wants me to point out that if ANYONE had been born knowing what the ladies like, it would be Sgt. Johnson, possibly related to his case of Boren's Syndrome, whatever that means….)

Now we’re adding another data point to that particular date on the Halo timeline, and that’s the release of Halo 4.

The end of Halo 3 found the Master Chief deep in cryogenic sleep, drifting toward a mysterious Forerunner planet, with Cortana instructed to wake him if she needs him. You can now consider his alarm clock officially set because Halo 4, the game that marks the much anticipated return of legendary hero Master Chief, will launch worldwide on November 6, 2012.

Day one.

 

[Deleted member 81567]

November was looking dead; I'm glad it's not a September release.

 

[Square Triangle]

NVM, look it's working for me.


Yay!

 

[Chinner]

taking on COD12

cod 12 vs cod-in-space.

whoever wins, originality dies.

 

[jbug617]

Wonder if this the reason why RE6 moved their date because I think Microsoft might be pushing that

 

[itsgreen]

Looks like there is still some work to do...

I am positive they were gunning for a September date like previous releases...

 

[Neko Mimi Mode]

Ballsy of CoD to release in the same month as Halo.

 

[I3rand0]

Begin the Fight Again

 

[CrunchinJelly]

This is good news because it means MS have every intention of going all-out.

 

[MikeE21286]

Playin fa keeps with that date

 

[LiK]

This is good news because it means MS have every intention of going all-out.

dat marketing budget is ready.

 

[The Librarian]

This is gonna be great. Going all in, I see.

 

[RoboPlato]

Man, if this and Black Ops 2 come out on the same day retail stores are going to be destoyed at the midnight launches.

 

[Xater]

I am surprised they would risk coming out the same month as BLOPS2.

Well I am done with COD, but I am still ok with a new Halo.

 

[Goldmund]

Oh, that's cool.

 

[Chinner]

Well I am done with COD, but I am still ok with a new Halo.

but what if new halo IS cod?

 

[alr1ght]

Halo GameFuel vs COD GameFuel...who wins?

 

[ced]

I am very excite for campaign.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Um, isn't that close to Election Day? Bad news for anyone courting the Youth Vote.

Shit. That's really irresponsible.

 

[Totobeni]

taking on COD12

COD franchise is slowing down,it's best time for other publishers and shooters games to attack and dethrone it.

 

[snoopeasystreet]

What'll sell more Halo 4 or BLOPS 2 on 360?

 

[MikeE21286]

Halo GameFuel vs COD GameFuel...who wins?

mountain dew

 

[sixteen-bit]

Good news. September will be TTT2 month for me, and then I can play Haloz in Nov.

 

[Visualante2]

Wonder if diminishing returns applies with Halo marketing.

 

[daedalius]

Now we just need details about the different SKUs we can expect, so I can order a Legendary edition.

 

[Neuromancer]

What'll sell more Halo 4 or BLOPS 2 on 360?

Blops but Halo will win the moral victory of being a better game.

 

[The Librarian]

Um, isn't that close to Election Day? Bad news for anyone courting the Youth Vote.

Shit. That's really irresponsible.

lol

 

[Deleted member 81567]

COD is losing steam honestly. Even if Halo is also looking to have yearly releases, it has some freshness to it still.

 

[MetatronM]

Um, isn't that close to Election Day? Bad news for anyone courting the Youth Vote.

Shit. That's really irresponsible.

Close to? No.

It IS Election Day.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Now we just need details about the different SKUs we can expect, so I can order a Legendary edition.

Cat helmet edition?

 

[Grisby]

Remember Remember the 6th of November.

Because you know. A new Halo and all. Day 1!

 

[andylsun]

that was cool. Going to be a busy autumn of backlog acquisition

 

[Infamous Chris]

Now we just need details about the different SKUs we can expect, so I can order a Legendary edition.

I want a sexy ass statue for the $150 version.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Close to? No.

It IS Election Day.

Ha ha, wow. Christ that is awful.

 

[ScOULaris]

And not a single fuck was given.

 

[daedalius]

Close to? No.

It IS Election Day.

As long as you go out at midnight to get Halo 4 (because you know there will be midnight releases), you should have plenty of time to vote the next day I imagine.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Ha ha, wow. Christ that is awful.

lol, vote early kids

 

[Kusagari]

Close to? No.

It IS Election Day.

Obma's screwed.

 

[The Elite]

And not a single fuck was given.

Except by the people who give a damn.

 

[B_Rik_Schitthaus]

Cat helmet edition?

Cat gauntlets, by the end of this trilogy you'll have a proper MC Kitty.

 

[Pudding Tame]

And thus the date of the next Cabella game is set in stone.

 

[Grisby]

I want a dog helmet to match my cat one.

 

[Neuromancer]

And not a single fuck was given.

I give a fuck. Several in fact.

 

[The Librarian]

Ha ha, wow. Christ that is awful.

The impact is going to be marginal, if anything at all.

 

[TheOddOne]

And not a single fuck was given.

Smh.
