Glad you guys love it. I was wondering if it plays at all like Metroid Prime. I haven't seen much gameplay footage apart from the E3 trailer, but Halo 4 looked a bit like the Metroid Prime series from what I've seen. Any truth to that? Or is it just superficial?

I don't think it plays like Metroid Prime at all. It plays just like Halo, but with new weapons, enemies and a little faster thanks to the sprint always being there for you.

The only part that resembles Metroid Prime is a few aesthetic choices like glowing metallic insect like enemies. But that's very superficial and really it's been part of the Halo art design since the beginning and looks as much Forrunner as it does Metroid Prime.

BTW, I'm a huge fan of both Halo and Metroid Prime. If that matters to you.

Thanks for answering Kain. I'm really glad everyone seems to love it. Hopefully I can play it sooner rather than later.
