Halo 4 Debriefed by 343 Industries

I'm glad we'll get to see chief as he really is, the games never really did a good job of exposing his true character which in the books shows him as a cocky character it'll also be pretty interesting to see what a guerrilla fighting chief would do without the UNSC directing him; also are we dealing with a forerunner construct or one created by the precursors who predated the forerunners?

It's theorized that the flood was a biological weapon created by the precursors.

All in all it's nice to see 343i knows what they're doing, seeing the concept art trailer really did bring back that expansive and alien feeling Halo:CE had when I first played it....oh man then the TU for reach this fall bringing back my OG Magnum and CE gameplay was the icing on the cake. Keep up the awesome work 343i!

Seems to me like the stories of the next bunch are going to be pretty thin... I mean, seriously, how many times can you re-hash humans vs. aliens? Even if they do explore Master Chief deeper, its still going to be based on the original story in some capacity. And (in my personal opinion) the Halo gameplay hasn't really been that fun for a while now. But that could just be me...

I've never been one of those fanatics for Halo. I have always thought it was an over hyped yet solid fps. I do hope however that these games are still solid and do not water down the franchise.

Cortana hanging out with me in Halo was my favorite part of the game--she was all "oh my god this is incredible/horrible/amazing/miraculous" and I was like "watch how high I can nade this Warthog." It was just us against the world. And then in 2 all these other characters showed up because play testers were dissatisfied with the deficit of annoying *******s and all of a sudden I have to leave my girl Friday behind with Audrey Fucking Junior so she can do last minute bullshit that does NOT involve nuking an entire ecosystem to save the known universe but I'm like don't worry I'll be back for you in 3, and I was--at the END of the game. Don't even get me started.

Hopefully it'll be me and her kicking Covenant butt and transcribing Covenant names in 4. I just don't know if I have the stamina to play with myself on an alien planet for ten hours straight.

I can't be the only one who is thinking about a retelling of Marathon. It's pretty common knowledge that Marathon featured a protagonist named John, and it was a Bungie game.

I was thinking the same but Bungie still owns the IP....

... This could actually work.

Perhaps some alien tech to help up the life expectancy of Cortana, or something else to help her return from Rampancy?

Also, exploring a new alien world... me like. I loved the exploration aspect of ODST, so a return to that kind of gameplay isn't all that bad in my book.
