I think Far Cry 3 going to be good too (like Assassin Creed 1 to 2 good)

I want to see that old Believe red/blue pic of Obama, but with half of his body/face being Chief's suit.
 
Doesn't look as good as I expected. Still a while to go though, so hopefully it'll look better in the final product.

I think the stuff we'll see at E3 will be the final quality. I think this is from the same build game informer got to see which and I thought Frankie said that build was an older one.
 
I think the armour is a big step up from Reach's. Of course I'm switching out that helmet ASAP.

Don't like the HUGE clips or thrusters or whatever they have on their backs. Looks especially goofy with the jetpack thing sticking out on Sarge.

I think that anyone expecting it to be leaps and bounds ahead of Reach graphically will be disappointed. I'm in no doubt that it is going to look damn good from what we've seen, but to be honest I'm still impressed by Reach's graphics and anything above mere refinement will be a pleasant and very welcome surprise to me.

Still though, we don't play Halo games to stand around in one spot and talk to each other, I'm more interested in how the game looks in motion.

With superior Mark VI armor; I like that. And the RvB shorts are not selling me on the default MP armor either.

Yeesh. 343i's artistic take for Halo's multiplayer (and some part of 4's campaign from the screenshots) are not sitting well with me. :/
Maybe it'll end up being like, "with gameplay like this who cares about the art!"

So the Spartans don't seem to be casting any shadows. whatisthemeaningofthis

edit: Okay they do on Whorehouse.
 
I'd use any reason I'd use any trick just to spend my loose change on a fist sized ice cream cone at dicks. I'm not really a huge fan of the armor, but I'm guessing it's default and supposed to give you incentive to earn those spartan points to change your gear out. I thought the graphics looked really sharp, personally. Even if you don't like the armor, the colors, or the lighting, the spartans really pop.

Mmm, Halo 4 looks nice. Just one question... why so late?
Gah, can't wait.

EDIT How many actually like the new armor? I do. A nice mix of a knight and a samurai.

Personally I find those RvB videos obnoxiously unfunny, and having it take place in Halo 4 didn't change that for me. In fact it made it worse because all we want is some multiplayer gameplay footage, and instead 343i spends time commissioning these, largely pointless videos.

Excited about the date though. Like I said last night, fortune favours the brave. I didn't think they'd do it and they did. Bravo.

Just landed in Arizona for a three day conference, catching up.
Yeah. It looks like a knife. You could cut yourself with it.
That's why they wear gloves.


w00t! Happy to be wrong about the date, the sooner the better.

Not digging the DMR scope, that's hilariously tall.

Looks like the art style retains Reach's chunkiness - probably a necessity due to all the customization - but with a cleaner look than Reach. It has Halo 3's shininess and Reach's detail. I like.

Back to happy fun finance conference. I'll update the OP tonight from the hotel. Look forward to the podcast, it will be good to kick back with tomorrow night.
