Why are the Elites/Grunts fighting the Chief?
I wonder if the AI will take a hit for the game to look this good.
Why are the Covenant fighting the Chief and also I thought the Covenant was disbanded after Halo 3?

No reason why there still wouldn't be anti-human remnants. It was a massive intergalactic religious order/empire - that doesn't just disappear overnight.
The Covenant is the organization, not the aliens themselves... There's a lot more to Halo fiction than just the games.

Their whole ideology was proven to be false and the people they followed tried to kill them off, why on Earth would the Elites still be following the same path they used to after all that. Also, the chief helped free their people.No reason why there still wouldn't be anti-human remnants. It was a massive intergalactic religious order/empire - that doesn't just disappear overnight.

I know, I don't understand how their existence is so hard to comprehend for some people. If anything, they exist just to show one of the new enemies vaporize an elite in front of your eyes as some sort of visual metaphor for "out with the old, in with the new".
Also, this game looks amazing.
My main problem is with the Elites who are fighting the guy who helped prove that their religion was false and helped defeat the rest of the covenant that was trying to wipe out their species, other covenant species are fine. It makes absolutely no sense that any Elites would be fighting the chief, if anything he would be more like a hero to them.
Game looked amazing, even better than I expected, where are the people that said this looked like Halo 3? =p
Was also really surprised they showed off the new enemy, I figured they would wait until we played it to reveal them.
Although, I have to say, I didn't care for the scripted events that played out a couple times. They weren't really necessary IMO.
What does believing the forerunners are gods have to do with attacking the chief?There are multiple factions of Elites. Some of them still belive that Forerunners are gods...
Enemy of my enemy is not my friend, just a temporary ally.

looks uninspired compared to bungie's work.
Nah. Notice that the new enemies disappear. That really helps ease the load on the game.I wonder if the AI will take a hit for the game to look this good.

Halo 4 coming up on G4

Eh, they don't like humans? Come on, you're in war with a species for 25 years, one guy making a favor to you doesn't make him your hero nor a friend. There are Elites who belive the humans are a threat that needs to be annihilated. Besides, helping them ain't going to impress them, they're warriors who belive they can do anything, and indeed the Elites did the majority of killing the Prophets and Covenant Loyalists.

And these are rogue convenant, who says they know what the chief did a few years back?
Same demo but the first sequence hit a bug where the grunt just froze.Was anything new shown?
What do you mean by Rogue Covenant?
Watching now.Was anything new shown?
[edit]
Watching it now, looks like they're just re-playing what was shown earlier today.
By the way, the whole UI is glitched our right now. The HUD got moved an inch or two to the left. lol
What the hell is up with the camera on G4? It's like off center to the left.
I meant in what way are they rogue e.g. do they still follow the covenant, have they been cut off from the rest of Elite society, do they follow some crazy leader etc.Rogue aliens, inviduals, mercenaries, scavengers. Those do exist in the Covie society.

It's been confirmed that the covenant are a very SMALL part of Halo 4..and this faction is a rogue sect..they are scavengers...think Space Pirates.What do you mean by Rogue Covenant?
