That's kind of what I was afraid of.
Do we need a "I will not. Allow you. To post without. SPOILER TAGS!!!" gif yet?

What would you guys say is the identifying song of the OST? You know, the song that when people think of Halo 4 they'll think of that song (ie: Associating Halo 1-3 w/ the chanting monks variations).
I'd agree, especially with To Galaxy. 117 is such a great heroic song :']

I'm thinking it'll be 117 or To Galaxy.

There's definitely a female vocalist solo in Nemesis. Definitely Halo reminiscent, but different - more emotional in tone. Like she is pleading, whereas Marty's monk's were very calm and almost omnipresent.
Difficult to describe, but I see what he was going for.
As Wahrer Machine said, To Galaxy is very Halo- esque, stirring strings with an upward progression.
Solace on the other hand is something I think that's completely new, but very enchanting. Almost Zelda like, but more symphonic. There's a sense of mystery, as well as a sense of melancholy.

Can people still access the page with all the tracks? I can't. =/
I want to hear all of 117. The desire is eating my soul.

Link got taken down, twas leaked.
Some quick comments on the soundtrack:
Gives me movie ost vibes:
Requiem
Legacy
Green and Blue - Probably my favorite of the bunch.
Haven
Solace
117 - A very nice "hero" piece.
Good combat music:
Ascendancy
Faithless
Other noteworthy pieces:
Nemesis - Might be wrong on this but it gives me "oldschool Halo sound" vibes
To Galaxy - we've already had this piece bashed over our heads, still the most adventurous sounding piece of the bunch.
Arrival - another adventure piece which we've heard pieces of, still sounds great.
Immaterial - Is very eerie, mysterious, freaky, distorted, melancholic until it picks up near the end. I can't wait to see what this is used on.
Revival - Clearly something pivotal must happen when the song picks up, hope the scene compliments the pounding beat when it does.

i think some parts of "revival" should play in the main menu. the chanting and the choir sound pretty epic and could "replace" the chanting monks.
It was gurd!

Guffawing loudly at night at this gif.
Disappointed the last Forge canvass wasn't Covenant or at least more vibrant and colourful. I'd echo the sentiment that all of the maps suffer from a lack of large flat forgeable space. The decision to include a severed limb from Reach's Forge World as one of the three Halo 4 canvasses is a mistake also. Almost seems lazy or corner cutting considering the assets look virtually identical. I do love the asteroid belt canvass though (Impact?), I can envisage some good looking maps on that particular plate.
Also, somebody mentioned here the other day that MS doesn't want grassroots community members to earn money via Halo content on Youtube because that earns money for Google, who're in direct competition with them. So that pretty much rules out direct-to-youtube from theatre (not that it was likely anyway...if it aint Silverlight, MS aint endorsing it).
Will watch out.
OT but just saw the South Park episode again, Bane Cartman was awesome at the end, one of the better new SP episodes.
err.. Halo.. yes
It sounds kind of like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZNv28j8h0Q
edit: At the very least it reminds me of that song.

If the Chopper ever makes it back into a Halo game, EazyB and a zoojoo have to 1v1. Winner gets unbanned.

Now see, usually it's white people doing these gay pranks when you asleep, and now I don't know what to think.
Explain this shit, Elzar
I heard Johnny Knoxville tell the story that his own father used to do this to him with an actual sausage slighty warmed up in the microwave. Brutal haha.

You just reminded me I had a dream about the chopper recently, which is weird since I never dream about video games.

watching todays forge video and two things really stood out to me...
1) the saw is a fucking beast, even at a decent range. we knew it was a killer at close range but he killed that guy VERY fast from med-far range. insane. kind of worrying actually.
2)jet-pack nerf is fucking awesome. you had better be on target using your pack on floating maps, as the charge runs out so quick and takes longer to recharge, you'll no longer be able to correct your path through the air at will - not to mention being able to jet pack up and almost hover at will.

Oh this will be nice, is anyone of you two able to stream or capture?

There should be some ridiculous handicap imposed, like they have to play a match of Bull Fight with zoojoo driving the Chopper.
So insensitive. It's pretty clear that dude may seem asian but he's white on the inside. It's all in the dick, bro.
