Forums - Microsoft - Halo 4 Review Thread! Embargo Lifts on Thurdays 1st November!

I predict 94 meta.

Im expecting the best Halo game ever made though.

Also Im expecting the most polished presentation of any console game we've ever seen. It has a selection of some of the best developers in the industry and the most amount of money spent on a game from Microsoft ever.

Actually considering all that if it isnt a great game that would be very funny.

But thats not going to happen.

I also expect it to have the highest Halo sales ever.

I'm going to predict..... 90-94 meta, ign 9.5 and basically a 95/9.5 everywhere else. It is going to be the best halo until at least halo 5 (had to say it) . The br is back! Though from the multi player vids I've seen the dmr looks far better. Armor lock, camo and the shitty maps bar asylum, which is a remake and zealot are gone forever!

Can't wait for Halo 4! I personally haven't been paying much attention at all to halo as I haven't watched any videos of the multiplayer and hardly any game play videos. I'm really hoping the game goes back to the mechanics of halo 3 rather than reach. Something I don't understand was why bungie deviated from halo 3 in the first place and made a crap multiplayer game like reach. I thought the multiplayer was perfect yet Bungie somehow got the idea in their head that we wanted halo to change for some reason. Armor abilities killed the game IMO. Sprint killed it even, that super clunky movement killed the game. Even not being able to jump high killed the game! Halo 3 has been up to this point my most played game ever by far. Like at least 1000 hours by far. I played like 3 hours of halo reach multiplayer. I'm really hoping 343 goes back to what made Halo so fun and different from the rest in the first place which was tight and simple gameplay.


I've been playing Reach lately and it just sickens me that they got rid of the Battle Rifle and pretty much every other weapon in Halo Reach.  Halo 3 has been the most supported complete package in video games to date.  Now Halo 4 will top it.  343 industies will prove to be one of the best developers going into next gen in my opinion with this game.




       

2 more days!



many people did hate to lose the br and get the dmr in reach, personally i had no problem with it, it's just too funny how >50% of player don't understand to use it for mid and wide range and just push the trigger as fast as possible and miss you all the time then

Seconded. They excluded the Battle Rifle in Halo 3: ODST as well, but I didn't really care in that case either. Scoped SMG and DMR were some refreshing weapons in my opinion.

And after all, Halo: CE did perfectly fine without the BR :P I don't mind it, but I also don't need it.



93 on metacritic



91% Meta



The fact that the embargo is being lifted before the street date shows MS is very confident of the reviews :)

93-94 metascore



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