Halo 4

Since the two topics I see regarding this game are about Gamestop pre-orders and the special edition xbox skin, I'm starting a thread regarding the game itself.

I waited to get it, since I was already playing AC3 plus wanted to see how it fared with reviews after a week or so. Picked it up yesterday. My first impression; This is a great Halo game.

I specify Halo because of the concerns I've seen floating around regarding Bungee not being on board. 343 did fine. The new weapons and enemies are diverse and fun. That's one of the main points for me. The story is great so far, and I like that the special suit abilities have been brought over from Reach. I haven't even delved into multiplayer yet.

What do you folks think?

Go make one yourself, Stafford.

That's right, I figured it out. You're Matt Stafford. You just pretend to be 47 on the boards and in games. Get your shit together man. I can't take another loss.

To re-rail the thread, Halo 4 is really good.

I really want to buy the game... but I haven't been able to convince myself to do it. If I can read a couple other posts like Krisopher's I'll have to buy it. Anyone else have a review to add?

I'm in the same boat, I'm interested but not enough yet to go buy it.

Generally speaking I really like the campaign....except it seems really short. Multiplayer is really good, but I haven't even come close to playing all the game types. I enjoy spec ops, but found it fairly easy to beat. But really like the 'free' content. Nice to have some extra content on the story.

I read somewhere it's like 8-10 hours, but I feel I'm near the end and yeah, it does seem short. I think it's just the effect of blasting through the game so quickly. I should have played the first run on heroic. I forgot to mention the couple of new vehicle experiences you get, which are awesome as well. I won't touch multiplayer until I beat the campaign, though. I want to get through it first, then get into PvP. I read about all the different game types, and they all sound great. I like the idea of free content with the spec ops releases, but I need to "free" up some memory so I can download them.

The game is quite a bit of fun and the storyline is quite good (much better than Halo 3). Depending on your difficulty, the campaign can take anywhere from 6 - 12 hours (to factor in restarts from the previous checkpoint). Two of my friends and I beat the campaign on Legendary, with us missing all but one terminal without help.

Yeah, I think I found the first terminal, then none. I wasn't really digging for them, as I've been playing the game clean (without reading up on it), and am fuzzy as to what that shit is about. I did make my spartan color, though. I like brown with tan highlights. Cause, you know, I play like shit in multiplayer.

I think the game is worth buying, but will reserve final judgment until I play multiplayer.

Too lazy to write a long list of things I find great about this game but a few things I feel are worth mentioning.

-If you play multiplayer and campaign, you will want to beat it campaign on Legendary
-Many people have said that the multiplayer (war games) is reminiscent of Halo 2's multiplayer
-Graphics are superb IMO and the cutscenes in the campaign and spartan ops are just icing on the delicious Halo 4 cake

The following almost makes the game worth buying, all on its own
- In War Games multiplayer, target an enemy corpse from close enough and use the hologram armor ability. Enjoy.

I am intrigued, and very excited to do this.
