| Halo 4 info being released Posted by polarbehr Microsoft revealed Halo 4's Limited Edition today, and there's not a cat helmet to be found. Instead, the $100 package gets you a fancy box, a "UNSC Infinity Briefing Packet," and a host of in-game bonuses, expanding the multiplayer experience.  on 5/16 at 11:01 amThe LE includes the "War Games Map Pack," a voucher for "three future competitive multiplayer map packs, each including three locations, available for download post-launch on Xbox Live." It also includes early access to six multiplayer Specializations, which will only be released at launch in this package; they'll be "released over time" to the general audience. Other digital bonuses include an exclusive armor and weapon skin, an in-game emblem, and an Avatar prop. The LE also includes an "extended 90-minute version" of the Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn video series, extra featurettes, and making-of videos. ETA so getting this game  This post was edited on 5/16 at 11:02 am Reply • Back to Top |
| Halo 4's competitive multiplayer will be known as War Games and, as previously detailed, will offer plenty of character progression and customization, such as armor specializations that enable "combat enhancements" tailored to specific play styles. Both War Games and Spartan Ops are included with the standard edition of Halo 4, though those willing to pony up the dough for the $99 special edition will also receive 9 maps (to be doled out across three map packs after launch) and early access to six armor specializations.

| I don't usually get into all the gimmicks with the Limited Editions. I will probably just get the game and play it and get the stuff when I can. I might hold of on a release date purchase just to see what all the armor abilities, perks, etc are. Man I miss Halo 2 Reply • Back to Top |

| I am a huge halo fan, to me this seems on post with the elite scam. Maybe a bit better since it has in game items as well This post was edited on 5/16 at 11:33 am Reply • Back to Top |
| Yea seems like it is getting you stuff early. Reply • Back to Top |
| Is there armor lock, jetpacks, DMR's, and reticle bloom? Could care less about all the map gimmicks. If the core gameplay is as awful as Reach was, I want nothin to do with it. Reply • Back to Top |

| I could have sworn that Bungie said they were done making Halo after Halo 3. Reply • Back to Top |
| They did M$ bought the rights and owns the IP Reply • Back to Top |
| i really have zero feelings about halo 4. i'll probably buy it and never play it. Reply • Back to Top |
quote: Microsoft has owned the rights to Halo since before Halo was a first-person shooter. Microsoft owned Bungie for the duration of development for the first three games. Most of the people on the team at 343 Industries, outside of a few big names like Marty, Wong, Shishka, etc., are actually the people who loved making Halo games so much that they didn't want to move on.

| Would be great if this game resembled Halo 2's gameplay. Don't think there will ever be a console FPS like that again. Reply • Back to Top |
