Sweet buddha, that's a great Halo 4 tease.

So Halo Fest visitors get to look at the real life Weat hog and virtually examine the Halo 4 hog? Jealousy at critical levels.

It had to largely come from 343.

I'm happy with the design change (although what fuel does the Warthog use?), but it's the toy-like render that I strongly dislike.

Know what im loving? The fact that cortana is narrating the warthog in the garage, but i would have loved to hear Jeremy Clarkson do it!

Would kind of love if they did it together. Like have her correct him, have it being a humorous back and forth.

Still don't see how the new suit is any clunkier than any of the older ones. When I think of sleek armor I think of the cyber Ninja suits in the MGS games or the bosses in MGS4 not anything Master Chief or any of the other spartans have worn. Those suits have always looked clunky and I think that's by design. Walking tank etc...

Also, what's with the railings on the side on the front of the Warthog? What's the point of them?

Greater body shape hold? Over head attachments e.g. a kind of clip-on roof?
To help ASoIaF's Tyrion climb in?

It's a bulky change, especially around the shoulder. I really don't like the shoulder pads.

How else are you supposed to tie your dead enemies to the hood? Visibility while driving is overrated anyway.

This one seems astonishingly awesome. ;-)

But it seems you've made your choice.

Dude, keep it simple and informative for casual folks. There's going to be plenty of folks browsing GAF that wont be aware there's going to be live streming panels, announcements and such.

The general GAF folks won't get any of the in-jokes.

It's in Forza 4's shiny high-res fancy vehicle show-off mode. Many of the cars in such modes look very plastic too.

It will look slightly different in Halo 4 for a variety of reason, despite being the same model.

It's official and widely reported, originally on Wired.com. It's an official easter egg in Forza 4 and confirmed. HaloFest folks get to play with it hands on during the show.

Yeah. Forza always has a shiny look to their car models. There is no way Halo4 goes with the fiberglass look.

Packing up to head to the convention center. Doing a quick swag round near the queue line (if it's open) then heading to the main theater for the CEA panel.

Meant to bring reading material (latest Edge, a book, and All My Friends are Dead) but left'em on the shelf at home. The line waits just got a bit longer.

It's not so much that it's shiny (that is part of it) as much as it's toy-like, looking more like plastic than metal.

Yeah. It looks like fiberglass to me, which would last all of 2 seconds in any kind of warfare. But in Forza, I'd totally drive that. /shout out to Gabe Garcia!
