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

haha, poor cat

 

[B_Rik_Schitthaus]

Close to? No.

It IS Election Day.

'' Vote Obama then buy Halo 4, save the universe twice in one day! ''

haha, poor cat

Don't feel bad, he'll be bulletproof.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

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.

But they'll play all night and then sleep in. This is bad news.

 

[Derrick01]

Close to? No.

It IS Election Day.

And just like that Obama is done for. MS are run by hardcore republicans confirmed.

 

[LiK]

And not a single fuck was given.

you mean your post?

 

[strafer]

Not that surprising since both Halo and Halo 2 were released in Nov.

 

[Xater]

but what if new halo IS cod?

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

Oh man! Can't wait for the Mega64 video!

 

[Carl]

Makes sense i guess. MS's moneyhat with Activision is over, so they can go up against them now.

Their COD early release DLC?

 

[Stat!]

The GI information drop has me skeptical but it's Halo. So probably Day 1.

 

[Kintaro]

This is MS saying that it no longer "needs" Call of Duty going forward with Halo 5-6 being on the next console. Ballsy.

 

[ncsuDuncan]

The midnight releases at Gamestop are going to be a bloodbath.

 

[Infamous Chris]

And not a single fuck was given.

lol junior.

 

[TRHolmes(y)]

Aw hell, why not. Day 1.

 

[TheOddOne]

This is jumping to conclusions.

 

[Jibbed]

Visuals in the Rooster Teeth video weren't that impressive, but who knows how old that build is and whatnot.

Bring it, I'm excited nonetheless.

 

[GarthVaderUK]

Day 1 for the return of the Chief! Can't wait!

 

[IdreamofHIME]

Obama should put up posters in gamestop to tell people to go vote after they pick up their game.

 

[kuYuri]

Halo in November, it's been awhile.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

This is jumping to conclusions.

Kind of... but the DLC exclusivity is up this year, I think, so it does put it in to question whether MS will be co-marketing any more.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Wait when is the CoD release date? Same day?

 

[jbug617]

Makes sense i guess. MS's moneyhat with Activision is over, so they can go up against them now.

This is the last yr for the agreement.

Obama should do a speech in MJOLNIR armor.

Quick, someone do a 'shop.

 

[JdFoX187]

I wouldn't be surprised to see BLOPS 2 pushed back a week or bumped up a week. It's not good for anyone -- console manufacturers, retailers or gamers -- to have the two largest shooters releasing the same damn day. With as close as Activision and Microsoft are, I think this was discussed. But who knows.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Wait when is the CoD release date? Same day?

That's the rumor

 

[The Librarian]

But they'll play all night and then sleep in. This is bad news.

I honestly can't tell if you're being serious.

 

[B_Rik_Schitthaus]

And not a single fuck was given.

Over five million people will end up spending hundreds of millions of dollars, all that doesn't add up to a single fuck?

 

[Orayn]

I'm there day one, though I kind of liked Halo as an early fall release. Seemed more... Dignified.

 

[TheOddOne]

Kind of... but the DLC exclusivity is up this year, I think, so it does put it in to question whether MS will be co-marketing any more.

My guess is that they will re-up the deal, both parties benifit from it.

 

[DR3AM]

i was hoping it would be september but oh well. i wont buy cod now

 

[JetBlackPanda]

And not a single fuck was given.

You might want to reevaluate your idea of the gaming industry right now.

 

[Carl]

This is the last yr for the agreement.

Yes, so by November it will be basically over

 

[Huff]

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

Lot of faith for an untested team that seems to be taking cues from the cod games

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

I honestly can't tell if you're being serious.

I just googled it and didn't find it.

Link?

 

[B_Rik_Schitthaus]

I'm there day one, though I kind of liked Halo as an early fall release. Seemed more... Dignified.

I liked it too, it was like a refined gentleman steeping aside and letting everyone else through.

 

[iKeepPlaying]

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

Shit. That's really irresponsible.

Wow. 10 years old can vote on the US?

Halection Day

 

[GeoramA]

cod 12 vs cod-in-space.

whoever wins, originality dies.

And the cycle will continue, with the millions of sales and critics jacking off to them both.

 

[Phonomezer]

No doubt an awe-inspiring amount of money is being spent on the marketing a we speak.

 

[B_Rik_Schitthaus]

Halection Day

Give them back their bomb...









Finish the fight?

 

[Homeboyd]

And not a single fuck was given.

I'm counting several fucks per page!

FPP is > or = 20

 

[jbug617]

Wonder what color 360 will Microsoft go with for the Limited Edition console. I think a glossy dark green would look good.

 

[RdN]

I'm happy that Halo is back in November. It is a place it should never have left.

With that said, CAN NOT WAIT !

 

[Sojgat]

This is crazy. I don't understand this, at all.

 

[Auto_aim1]

Mainline Halo game + large 360 install base + holidays = all sales records broken.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

November against CoD? Yeah Halo can hold it's own, but why change from the September dates the past few games had? They'd own September, now they'll share November.

 

[Neuromancer]

Lot of faith for an untested team that seems to be taking cues from the cod games

Are you referring the the MP stuff? Yeah I don't really care about all that, I'm talking more about the campaigns. Unless 343i strays way off course (which I doubt) it's a given that H4 will have the better campaign just by the nature of the two series.

 

[JdFoX187]

November against CoD? Yeah Halo can hold it's own, but why change from the September dates the past few games had? They'd own September, now they'll share November.

Would rather have a game with two months extra of polish and the threat of slightly diminished sales than a rushed game that would probably sell less anyway because of how unpolished it is. Especially with this being a new team, they need to polish as much as they can.

 

[DimmuBurgerKing]

Perhaps not Day 1 - but certainly some day.
