points well taken. Ghost Recon (CGI) is one hell of  franchise, but it's not as big as Halo, nore is Bioshock. either way, i can't wait to see the official thread ,and how the game does cause like most in this thread i'll likely(not purchase) be playing day one. my cousin, and young brother inlaw will have bought Halo4.

i love your passion for this game, and how strongly you feel in your convictions, so in that i really can't say much else. that's likely why i made the official Bioshock thread so early in retrospect.

i'd liken Halo4 to the official Satrhawk thread which has fared allot better then either CGI's or my thread, as a compairison for your statement. the official starhawk thread is a major hit thus far, so if we gauge that success, knowing Halo is 10 times bigger, and starhwak is relatively new, and a console exclusive, then i guess you have merit.

New GI Article: Meet the Creative Director for Halo 4:

As the co-creator of NBA Street and co-founder of Propaganda Games, Josh Holmes may sound like an odd choice for the creative director of Halo 4. Starting out testing sports games at EA (click here to see this bonus video where he talks about his worst day in the industry), Josh is a 15-year veteran of the gaming industry and he has worshipped Halo for 10 of those years. We asked him to share his first memories of playing Halo: Combat Evolved, what he sees as the pillars of the Halo series, and what changes he would like to make to the formula. Watch the video below and let us know what you think in the comments below.

This week at gameinformer.com is devoted to the changing face of Halo 4's multiplayer and we are starting things out by talking about the competitive side of things. You might have heard that 343 Industries is interested in making some changes to the classic Halo formula. We sat down with lead multiplayer designer Brad Welch to talk about the new emphasis on story, customizable loadouts, and the new and updated modes for Halo 4. Watch the video below to learn more about what your competitive multiplayer experience will look like in Halo 4 and stay tuned to the site throughout the week to learn about the new co-op experience called Spartan Ops.

i hope the multiplayer lives up to its promise

That was a pretty awesome interview.

Also...dat BR!!!

hey my internet is running slow so if you find anything worth changing the title for, ask a mod and point them to this view post.

try to get Barozi to do it.

alo 4 will be released on Tuesday, 6th November, according to The Verge.

It claims that Microsoft and the game's developer, 343 Industries, will announce the launch date before midday (EST time), so sometime before 5pm UK time.

The report also suggests that Microsoft will once again be showing off its wares on late-night American TV – Epic Games' Cliff Bleszinski appeared on the show to promote Gears of War 3 last year – but this time Halo 4 is being linked with an appearance on Conan O'Brien.

These rumours seem to be backed up by some recent Twitter activity. Alison Stroll, a senior producer at 343 Industries, tweeted, "A little birdy (or was it Andy?) told us @TeamCoco will have some big Halo 4 news tomorrow. Stay tuned! #incoming #wakeupjon". Meanwhile, Major Nelson said, "Look for #Halo4 news on the way in the next 24 hours. Hint: @TeamCoco plays a part!"

Will be checking in regularly for updates today MDJ, thanks for the heads up.

What the heck?  Never saw a post like this.  Trying to express yourself as an artist?  Anyway, the reason I haven't posted in the Bioshock/Crysis 3 threads is that I don't really care for either series.  I know they're good games but just not for me.  Wish you the best of luck with the threads, though.
