As HaloGAF's anime editor, I can confirm this is true.
More people from the school of Jeff Gerstmann? Praise be upon you.

When Jeff is in happy mode, he is totally super awesome. When he is in his downer moods, he can get really, really, really tiresome. Even in his downer moments, he does still make some funny comments here and there.
His dad recently died and you can notice that he really isn't fully back. He should have taken more time to process it.

I'm all for weapon skins, as long as loadouts are required to incorporate them.
Honestly, I would like to see some more unique things done with the skins compared to what Halo 4 did though. It looks like Halo 5 has a progression of Halo 4's BR design.. something cool would be having one of the 'skin' model swap it out for a BR more reminiscent of the Halo 2/3 design.

Weapon skins/models would be badass.

I'm going to get a second one for competitive Halo so that I don't piss the missus off when I take over the lounge.
Also, going to film a Halo thing with Microsoft's PR team tomorrow morning. Have no idea what to expect, except I have a make up artist. (She'll need to be pretty good!)
I shall wear my HaloGAF tshirt with pride.

Wonder what they have planned? Too late in the game for MCC, but I could be mistaken.

From what I understand, it's a mini-documentary of sorts about Halo and how it changed the gaming world etc. It's for the MCC, and I would expect it to appear on the dashboard and youtube etc.
Exciting!
People are against weapon skins? I mean I get that some of the designs 343i put forward are atrocious but come on. I feel like if some of you got your way Halo would be the most boring game ever that only appeals to the ultra-competitive scene.
Customisation that doesn't effect gameplay is what we should be going for. It's no different to armour really (but I'm sure there are people against that too haha). Even games like Counter Strike allow you to do this.
If Halo were to completely ignore that I honestly believe it will left in the past.

The problem with this is that games have changed a hell of a lot over the last 7-10 years. With new hardware and a new generation of games people expect at least some kind of customisation. It keeps them invested.

Wait... For someone who doesn't think Halo deserves to be relevant why do you want to make the OT? Trolling?

Well, to be fair, after Halo 4 they're lucky anyone cares at all.
Maybe you should make it. You could even put it on your résumé!
I'll come pack by bags and you can teach me the ropes and I will handle your achievement scripting. Salary 30K/year.
Why you should hire me:
-I'm beautiful
-I'll compliment you no matter what
-I have blue eyes and blonde hair (Aryans FTW?)
-I have an undying love for all things Halo
-You can prank Stinkles and blame it on me
-I'll pick up your lunch every day.
-I'll play test all of the achievements in my spare time.
PM for more info.
In the mean time I'll just continue my normal life:

I'll live, but I'm sure it'll be better than the 0 hours of CE I currently play online.
Plus, Halo 2 Terminal, Headlong, bomb carrier on Banshees, etc., yo. Not enough time in the day to get my Halo fix with TMCC.
I'm a lover, not a fighter.
