Hmm. Lack of firefight might hurt its critical reception.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Late XBox 360 title or early NextBox title?



Looks pretty sweet, maybe I should consider getting this magazine one time.

Dat Elite... 

It looks like a cross of the Honor Guard armor from Halo 2 and the Theron armor from Gears. It does a really good job at hitting  their target of a more scattered and scrambling looking Covenant.


Wow, you are exactly right about the Theron look.

 

So is this legit now, can we believe what is written on these pages?



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

Oh ello GOTY.



The Elites look more organic.

good news everyone




           

Master Chief's armor is still one of the best videogame designs of all time. In its genre it loses only to samus gravity suit, but it's close! The Chief is so badass!
