Seems so. So we can boot MP without the Reach disc in ?

Considering MS gave away Reach for free earlier this year, I'm sure they don't mind as long as you buy Halo Anniversary.

Just watched the behind the scenes with the pistol. It looks like the same firing rate as in Reach. Three shot kills with a gun that fast? That will be insanity. I hope I'm just wrong.

I'm so psyched about Installation 04, the new Firefight map. It's gonna be a blast. I'm curious to see how the enemies will focus their attention between the human players and the AI marines...

You aren't alone. There were a couple of genuinely good questions but some of these you should know if you remotely have read up about the game one damn bit.

Halo 2 Anniversary question lol
Click to expand...

I actually would really want to play a "new and improved" (unlike what they did with AE) version of Halo 2's campaign complete with a satisfactory ending so I'm kind of glad someone brought it up. And based on their ambiguous response I would bet that there's probably a really good chance of that happening.

That was a fun panel and all...

But I feel like it would have been a little better had all the big news not come out half an hour earlier. :lol

I'm watching these youtube links on my iphone so it's hard to tell. Can anyone look at that Installation 04 firefight clip and tell me if the marines are Reach Army Troopers or updated Halo 1 Marines?

Nobody asked about the frame rate. He did mention they fixed a couple bugs but nothing worth mentioning, I'd assume fixing the frame rate would be worth mentioning.

The ending is completely satisfactory to me now that Halo 3 is out. MC goes out like a badass: "Sir, finishing this fight."

I'll add the news from each panel in the news area and the schedule area under each panel. Someone shoot me some linkage for panel news.

Have they said they'll be increasing player speed/lowering inertia for quicker strafes?

Halo 4 wall teasing.

Shows some new art.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

And that white board isn't a confirmation, Monkey. If you're gonna say it's "confirmed", you have to give a big disclaimer or at least cite your source right away.

Probably one of the minorities here in this regard, but I wish someone had asked about weapon lowering over Live, something a giant chunk of the Halo machinima community has been asking for since it was removed from Halo 3.
