I'm thinking of just canceling my Newegg pre order. It's taking me forever to play through Borderlands 2, especially with two copies. Plus I'm way more excited about Far Cry 3.

Well I'm certainly not going to play through this myself without the awesomeness of my STRIKE Team brethren. If the rest of STRIKE isn't buying, neither is Swarlos.

Med, are you definitely getting it? If so I'll just keep the pre order. We all know Thomas is reliable...not at all.

Probably, 1 rep at the m$ store said the 1600 m$ points and the $25 credit stack with the pre order, but another rep said it doesnt...I got a ref. # from the guy that said it does stack So I'll prolly just order it today

NOT a Halo guy at all, Wanna run through this game hard n fast...Swarles do u even game any more?

Been busy as fuck the last couple of weeks. Work was crazy last week and the week before I had a 350 page book to read then a 13 page paper. Ready for a nice break this week. Hitting up Dishonored and Borderlands hard tonight.

If you guys get it, so will I. If not, then fuck it.

For as much as you like four-player co-op, I am surprised that you would cancel it. We all know that Halo is going to be a great co-op experience regardless, and the two-player Spartan Ops should be good as well.

I just checked the Microsoft store (website) and the deal right now for Halo 4 appears to be -> 1600 MS points plus a $10 coupon for preordering any of the listed games (Halo 4 is one). In addition, for ordering Halo 4, you get $25 off of your next purchase on the Microsoft website. I think you can get both as the $25 off next purchase is applicable to Halo 4 only (it states the "game only" special under each of the games - they are different for each game. Not sure if that's what you meant by "stacking" - I would check anyway, seems like you are getting the game practically for free.

I'm not surprised they are having a difficult time pushing Halo 4. No doubt it will be a great game and the graphics will be great and they story will probably be good - the problem is that it is MORE OF THE SAME. I read the Promethians (the new enemy) breakdown in Game Informer and the weapons / enemy types are pretty consistent with the enemies in Reach and prior Halo games. I think shooters have evolved to the point (i.e. Borderlands) where you want great co-op and asymmetrical combat. It was OK for Halo 1 & 2 to equip both sides with essentially the same weapons (pistol, grenadae, rifle, transport, etc) with a few minor exceptions that were reskinned for Marine or Covenant. I hope this is a good game but the days of dumb AI and the "samey" weapons for both sides is dead, in my view.I really want this to be a good game with unique features, but after reading game informer, you might as well pick up Reach - it'll be the same game, essentially, and cheaper.

I forgot about the Spartan Ops - that sounds cool to a point.

To your post, I really think they need to hit it with the Spartan Ops for sales. Halo is already maxed out on it's current audience- Halo fans, fans of four-player co-op and FPS fans who will buy the game, and sell it to Gamestop two months later. They've got to evolve some, and I think Spartan Ops could be that.

Still, it is Halo, and I think the desperation of trying to sell it is because people know this isn't a Bungie game anymore, and the apprehension is going to occur there.

Cant wait to play some system link in our tents. Gonna be like the old Halo days all over again. :fap:

Online rep I chatted with said the $25 coupon and the 1600 m$ points stack, got 2 reference numbers so if the Jew me out of anything I will pitch a Twigg-Sized Bitch fit at them...

Just ordered it

So you'll hold them up and gun point?

Considering I still have yet to finish Reach, I think that speaks volumes.

I found the non-Master Chief Halos to be rather boring.

I mean, it took me a while to sit down and finally beat it on solo, but I'm surprised at that. I can see your point, then.
