Halo 4

[Monger]

IGN review goes up in less than an hour. I am very curious to see what they end up giving it as it will likely be a general indicator of what most American reviewers end up giving it.

 

[DNett503]

"10.0 - Masterpiece " is my guess.

 

[Monger]

Really? Honestly I am suspecting maybe an 8.5 from them.

You were much closer than I! Wow IGN sounded like they loved it. I was afraid early reviews would be a bomb but now that I know that isn't the case I'll be picking this game up for sure.

**** yea! Halo can do no wrong .

 

[usswanker]

Well it looks like the new trilogy is starting off with a bang! Paid for my copy tonight and am looking forward to picking it up at midnight!

The Halo 4 console makes me wish I hadn't bought the GOW3 console a year ago.

That thing is awesome too though. I wanted one bad at the time.

 

[brucecamblzchin]

Just finished Halo 3 again in readiness. OMG that last warthog drive to jump in the ship, so rad.

 

[Karma]

awesome reviews

 

[SOLIDSNAKE]

OHH MAN ! IGN'S review 9.8/10 yeaa I am pumped.

MC FTW ! this is going to be awsome.
hope to see ya guys online once I am done the campaign.
going to the midnight launch for sure.

 

[Nuka Cola Kidd]

So, I've been reading about the new co-op mode, but I wanted to make sure the campaign is full co-op too...correct?

 

[Centurion]

Reviews are actually much better than I was anticipating.

Now, the question is, which place gives an incentive to preorder?
Are there any perks at Walmart, Target, Best Buy, etc for preordering this other than guaranteeing you the game?

 

[The Josh]

Should be fun to play as MC again. Glad his story line is back but I did like Reach a lot so it was fun playing in that world outside of MC. I do look forward to pwning some newbs and friends once again.

The retailer-specific bonuses for Halo 4 are multiplayer skins. I.e. customizable skins for your spartan armor and weapons. Each retailer offers different designs.

At Best Buy you can also get (on top of the skin) a free "lenticular" poster. And by "" I mean it's not very lenticular, but still really cool.
