All the Halo 4 Terminal videos, for those that dont want to read the books to flesh out the Forerunner history, it's a nice intro to enemy and aid to come in the game, obvious spoilers for those that wish to stay away from any story clues, but for those that dont mind and want to know the history of the Didact and Librarian, watch on.

Sometimes I want to kill some people.

They complain that Halo 4 has only a few maps and the only one they choose to play in BTB is Ragnarok, a map from Halo 3?!??!!

P.S. the sound in MP is shit. everything further away than one inch makes almost no noise. Kills the atmosphere...

Valhalla and the other 2 Halo 3 Beta maps were some of the best maps in the entire game. And I've never been happy with the maps post Halo 2. Never felt balanced or at least conducive to good firefights.

Definitely agree from what I've heard of the sounds though. Sounds artificial, which is what I guess they were going for since it's a VR construct or some shit, but it's not good.

I love how reviews come out glowing and within a day gamers find glaring flaws within the first few hours of playing

What glaring flaws? or are you talking about some people not liking the sounds/volume?

The sound yes
Typically reviews break down games into sub categories which include one devoted to sound design.

I didn't say I was surprised. Just said I enjoy it

Wow, 343, the game is fucking awesome so far. Probably 4 hours in or so. Then again, that does include a lot of deaths :) Playing on legendary first may not have been the best idea, but I'm absolutely loving every second, and in some cases I just want any excuse possible to replay some missions.

First I voted, and then I went and got me Halo 4 :D

I am enjoying the single player a lot. Gameplay wise at least. Playing on Normal as always since I'm not a masochist. However, 2 of 8 missions down and only played for 45mins. I hope the other 6 are longer.

Covie weapons sound good though. Liking the new weapons. Bigger enemies take a lot more hits. Elites don't care about headshots and Hunters, dear God.

funny how people are so hyped by the SP in here, I've heard the opposite in most reviews.

Maybe my 'sound-system' is too bad, but for example, when a ghost is like one meter away, firing at me, I hear nothing!
This also destroys the reponsivity and orientation.

I love the game in total (especially sp), but there are already many flaws I liked too see patched very soon....

I don't know, you have to really be into the story, I guess, but the SP is like a dream come true for me, personally. This is what I've always wanted out of a Halo game. It is finally taking full advantage of all the potential that I've always felt so strongly was there, both from a character and overall universe standpoint, that wasn't being exploited nearly as much as I thought it could and should be.

I tried not to delve into too much hyperbole on this, but I honestly think this is the greatest Halo SP I've ever played. I'm in a such a damn good mood right now.

Ever since I heard the some of the guys from the Ascendant Justice blog were being hired by 343i, I had high hopes that their game would deliver in the story department. I'm about three hours in and I'm absolutely in love with it.

I am playing on Heroic and it is a challenge and takes longer--and the set pieces/AI shine.
