I am so stoked for this game ! I just don't like a few things ..but yet again I wont totally harp on it since I didnt play it yet.  1. The Prometheans look (as said below) cyborg. Even though this video states they are NOT robots.. did they ever hear looks can be deceiving ? Anyway, I also don't like ( as mentioned below) how the enemy disappears. I mean..maybe it will be cool once I start to play ,but I'm more about the corpses on the battlefield rather than piles of dust everywhere...?  I honestly think/wished 343 would have invested in a more grim enemy..something that looks like it will kill you just with a glare..something without any restraint. Give Chief an enemy that beats the living shit out of him. Fucks humanity up worse than covies did. I think Master Chief and Halo is one of the best stories out there..so give him a good fight.  With that said, the enemy does look promising and intriguing...lets just hope that they kick ass.

 lTimmayyl halo 2 brought lots of trippy-ness to halo, then the series kinda let that go.  The guns are trippy. Yay!  

brainiac1988 54 pts

Lets all pray this is gonna be good :)

Prometheans look cool, but also kinda robotic if u ask me.

And its kinda lame that they totally disintegrate when they are killed.  I like seeing the battlefield littered with dead bodies after a long and hard fight :P

 

Will buy on first day anyway.

I hope we get to fight Covenant as well (brutes/elites/grunts) with their banshees and ghosts.   Also loved the flood.

 

Cant wait to ride a tank together with my buddy and some marines!

getting a bad vibe about Halo 4.Too much change will kill you just the same as none at all.

Looks great, but was I the only one who found the video a bit glitchy? I looked for one that wasn't on other sites but the ones I could access were glitchy at the same points in the same ways. I'm just curious.

revenantjj 8 pts

 NickyWithATicky  Glitchy for me also.

Danituga 79 pts

 NickyWithATicky the first part was glitchy for me too

343 seem to have really put their mark on the series.  Can't wait!

blighter 9 pts

S@#t, I really wish I hadn't watched this. I'd been kind of ignoring Halo 4, not really that interested, now this comes along and blows my apathy out of the water. Now where did I put my credit card?

salvucci91 52 pts

Ohhhhhh maaaaaan. Can't wait to see where this story goes !!!

sirkibble2 215 pts

I sense some inspiration came from the Metroid Prime series with some of the design, but it I like it. Even if it didn't, it still looks like it'll be exciting to take on the Prometheans.

baystatethrashr 37 pts

 sirkibble2 Not surprising since some 343 guys came from Retro Studios.

Its funny to note that how we spend trillions to explore other species in the universe and then spend some more to fight them. Send our men to war and make something much of world war until we realize we need some peace at last. And on these frailties of human we make out a great game.

Looks beastly, cannot wait.. The composer is no longer Martin O Donell either, can't wait to see what that's like.. 

Malscyllis 65 pts

Hard to believe there's a threat out there greater than the flood. Excuse my ignorance, i just haven't been? reading the lore since after Reach :P

kierwinyoung 33 pts

Holy hell, it's a good thing Halo 4 doesn't have Flood anymore. they just annoy me in Combat. but the Prometheans and the Forerunners are something I can test my skills with.

 wavelength121 How does that even make sense?

RighteousPlank 8 pts

 Underarm1  wavelength121 He didn't get the memo

zhaffy 41 pts

 wavelength121 Are you being sarcastic? Because Bungie is not developing this. 343 Industries is, and most of them were from Bungie.... 343 said that they were all really into Halo

sleepnsurf 43 pts

 wavelength121 Haters gonna hate. Go play your precious resistance 3 lol

MJ12-Conspiracy 548 pts

Looks awesome, I'm just glad to finally be done with the flood....bring on the Prometheans, their tech looks cool and the enemy designs are interesting.....

LittleChatelain 20 pts

Whoa. At 7:05 it looks like they are testing that gun on Narrows from Halo 3.

NickyWithATicky 183 pts

 LittleChatelain Perhaps it is the map-remake they've been talking about. But they were fighting covenant and there's no firefight in Halo 4. If it was a map remake it would surely be in multiplayer.

gamerx100 16 pts

the Forerunners design look like walking cockroaches. kinda expecting something more in the line extreme strength than a pest.

Why do the Prometheans remind me of space pirates from Metroid Prime?

 Phazon_Killer we've all been saying this

For me, this almost makes up for Microsoft not coming out with any new IP's lately for the 360... ALMOST >_>

buccomatic 1120 pts

 korosaki-ichigo the only thing you're going to get with win8 is directx12.

 

 

K3A12 12 pts

All of this forerunner tech and disintegration just reminds me of Metroid Prime. Or am I just crazy?

shachmon 10 pts

Am I the only one who thinks "Crysis 2" when watching the new alien animations?

buccomatic 1120 pts

 shachmon crysis 2 was flat out badass!

 

why make comments insinuating that crysis 2 was not good??

Hydrophone 6 pts

 buccomatic  WTF?! Dude, you really need to practice in your english...

buccomatic 1120 pts

 Hydrophone no, you need to just get a clue.

korosaki-ichigo 56 pts

 buccomatic  shachmon  but not better thn warhead

buccomatic 1120 pts

 korosaki-ichigo  shachmon i never played warhead so i wouldn't know.

 

i was just commenting on how good crysis 2 looked and played.

AwsomeZ101 6 pts

 Cyanide4Suicid3 The prometheans form what i recall, are the army class of the forrunners. There is classes like mining, war(prometheans, nd others i forgot).

speaking of forgotten stuff, what about in 5 or 6 we find lost human items that we had before we lost the first war against them something million years ago

Cyanide4Suicid3 12 pts

Are Prometheans and Forerunners same beings or what? Thats the only thing Im confused about
