The press is embargoed till March 5th. Micrsoft can release a trailer on February 29th. but it seems unlikely if they embargoes the press.

Damn embargos.
I'm waiting for the Giantbomb writeup. Followed by the discussion on the Bombcast.

You'd think the IGN editor would just write short notes on his arm to speed things up.
PURPLE = MIDSHIP REMAKE
Hosh posh magazine.
They really get Halo, their reviews/previews always stress great things that just do no come up in other reviews/previews.

We just know that all balance is pretty much fucked beyond all saving, so something that little isn't that big of a deal comparatively.

What's clear, is that you have a different idea of what makes the game balanced that some of us do.
Their beta coverage was awful, pretty much anything I've ever watched from there is awful. Not like they're alone though.
The balance in this game never existed, the majority of the people in this thread stopped caring about Halo Reach over a year ago. We even axed the Reach OT!

lol, guys? Kotaku or some French site will leak the stuff.
It's mostly for their commentary, that usually is way off base, but entertaining.

Hopefully something leaks.
hahaha you were being serious on your previous post
Actually the bloom in combination with the bullet magnetism makes the bullets of the DMR trail more down as you spam more, so in that sense you can manipulate bloom, but it's not always accurate(because bloom.)

Pffft. What does Jeff Gerstmann (however you spell his name) know about Halo?
They don't know anything about any game, I guess that's the joke.
Who cares, he's entertaining.
I don't expect all the game's media to be "fragging like pro's" in Halo MP, they have to play and cover dozens of games a year. Hard to get good at one game's MP when you only play it for a few hours then move on to the next new game.
"We played the latest level based around the In Amber Clad, with the main character John 117 in Bungie's latest game featuring the Spartan V"
Don't worry, a French journalist will sneak in.
Yup. They 'get' Halo in ways very few other publications do. I'm very interested in their observations regarding how 343 handles their debut Halo game.
Yep.
I don't expect any of you guys to know the minutia of Blitz 2000 or Smash TV, but he does.
Turns out not everybody spends hours a day reading a Halo forum and not even a single sentence of their coverage is aimed at people who do.
I'm not asking them to be good at the game, I'm asking them to be good at covering the game. It's their JOB! IGN calling Zealot a Midship remake or whatever is just...wat.

Yes, I'm aware I just used that last night.
Actually all the reload animations in CEA where pretty damn slick.

Oh crap... it will be available in-game? oh crap... Mindblown.
They're both purple and alien, duh.
The Low G area of Midship really defined the map and pushed it to MLG Pro status.
Unf guys.
Unf.
Warthog customization with 2553 subwoofer technology augmented with forerunner sound systems for maxiumum bass and phat beats.
You're such a tease.
Where are master-chief suit in-game renders so we can complain about them?
So its an in-engine remake of Perfect Dark Zero?
Oh wait, Che wasn't the one unfing.
I take it you are in our office right now.
Bacon double cheeseburger
Deserts confirmed for Halo 4?
Just got the Albany MLG map pack download schedule from Killa KC. Looks like I'm going to be putting in 12 hours in one day to help out lol. They will be providing pizza and sandwiches too which is cool. I'm hoping we get to LAN!
edit: Apparently if we don't fall behind schedule, we will be LANning! YES! Gonna be awesome.
