You can't post scans, that is why they are removing them.

I would assume they're under some contractual obligation? It's not 343's or Microsoft's magazine, I don't think they're at liberty to discuss its contents.
Also you'd have to consider that fact that even if this is fake, it did a hell of a job getting Game Informer "out there". This leak is all over the web, including BIG gaming journalism sites. If Frankie had said "it's fake", none of this huge frenzy would've happened.
Lol damn, just realised this could be some sick viral marketing for Game Informer. but probably not.
Which is my point, they were from the magazine and not fakes. But the blocked out text makes any kind of argument hard for the validity of information, whether real or fake, until 343 comments on it or the magazine is in more peoples hands.

Right?
Oh yeah. :-(Wraparound. Warhouse.
hmmmm?
Yeah, I'm guessing they don't want to spoil GI's sales.

I told my friends if this information is 100% true, then Halo 4 becomes:
CoD and Reach's fetal alcohol syndrome baby.

Wait, covenant carbine is back? Like the H2/H3 carbine? Hope it's less boring.
And assault carbine? I'm imagining something like the ODST SMG.

shinobi602 posted this in the gaming side thread. Has a link of a guy on youtube who thinks the scans are absolutely fake. Perhaps it's desperate and wishful hoping on my part, but the guy makes some really good points in the video. I liked when he referred to the new information as COD incarnate. And he mentions that Frankie and Robert aren't allowed to say anything about the scans since they are under contract.

That DMR is easily photoshopped.
There is no way 343 would create something that ugly.

Yeah, but that's an alien gun. It's okay if it looks weird. I wouldn't say it's ugly, but it's not great, that's for sure.
The H4 BR looks a hell of a lot better than the H4 DMR.

I also hope to see this return:
as well as the SMG. At least in SP.
Also, on a side note, the one of the Elites from the scans has showed up on the Halo wiki.

Oooh, if that is the assault carbine than I will be a happy person. Also, I think we were told that there would be more new weapons than returning weapons in Halo 4.. if that is the case I think Halo 4 will have more weapons than any past Halo title.

Actually I disagree. The DMR look like an older weapon compared to the BR, as it should.

Probably because they haven't hit the shelves yet, not even the digital copy has been released.

^ Ah yup, another one.
It's hitting subscribers. Once the magazine is out in subscribers hands, it should be fair game.

Halo 4 determines whether or not I buy the next xbox.
Things are looking pretty good for nintendo at this point. I have neglected zelda for too long

Questionable. I've seen boxes open at work with issues going to stores, it would be pretty easy to snap a picture of "my" issue.

It's some girl on tumblr and the magazine is laying on a carpet, doesn't seem like a work environment. She's posted the start of the article and someone asked if she sum it up or something ands he said if we all give her a few she'll just scan the full article. Of course she said that 20min ago. I was hoping to go to bed but I guess I'm staying up in case she delivers.
She went on to post the cover, the back, and the introductory page of the story.

Wow. I went to sleep just before the leaks happened. Shame they happened at all.
Just read the info, not seen any pictures.
It's... a tad alarming. Certainly rocks the safety boat a lot. And the fair instinctual reaction is be defensive about it, in a post Reach world.
Honestly it's the spawn stuff for players and weapons that catches me off guard the most. Yes, they'll have playlists with traditional setups but not only does it split resources it fractures the player base to which we can view as a negative, considering previous titles.
I look forward to do this podcast, but think MP gameplay videos, perhaps with commentary would be a better avenue at calming people.
While so far this sounds like bad news, it does give me hope that the campaign will do some new stuff.

Am I allowed to post how to get to this tumblr via google?
She already has multiple requests to post info and responded saying she'll try to scan the pages.
I'm not sure either if i'm allowed to post a link for multiple reasons.

I was going to go to bed right now, but I think I'll wait for tumblr scans.
