The Halo 4 Crimson Map Pack is officially available in the wild! And by the wild, I mean the main menu of Halo 4. You can download the Crimson Map Pack for 800 Microsoft Points from the Xbox LIVE Marketplace, and it’s also available at no additional charge for those that purchased the Halo 4 Map Pass or Halo 4 Limited Edition. If the latter applies to you, follow the below steps to download the new maps:

1. Load Halo 4
2. Press Start
3. Select “Xbox LIVE Marketplace”
4. Download “Crimson Map Pack”

If you’d like more information about the Crimson Map Pack, check out the following articles. Otherwise, we look forward to seeing you on the new virtual battlefields!

Every Monday, we feature a community member who does one or more of the following things: routinely goes above and beyond for their fellow forum members, is a positive and active member of the community, and/or sends me mass amounts of cat pictures. This week our Community Member of the Week is II SHABUTIE II. Read a little more about him below, then hit his profile to learn more about what he finds to be music to his robotic ears!

Gamertag: II SHABUTIE II.

Origin of Gamertag: It was Coheed and Cambria’s original band name.

Current clan/community: Waypoint and Forgehub. There are a few others but I mainly just spend my time on the Waypoint forums.

Halo game(s) you are currently playing: Halo 4, Reach and occasionally Halo 2 with my brother and his friends.

Favorite map, game type and playlist: Containment, Fiesta, and Multi-team.

Least favorite map, game type and playlist: The Pit, VIP, and Invasion.

Preferred control scheme: Recon and Default.

Halo playing style (offense, defense, sniper, driver, etc.): I’m pretty big on driving vehicles and running flags. There is no better rush in Halo than a beautiful flag cap.

Favorite character: I like all the Prophets. They are the reason that the Halo conflict even exists.

Favorite Halo book: I love the audiobook for Primordium. I’m not a big reader and Tim Dadabo did a great job when it came to keeping my attention.

Favorite Halo quote: “I need a weapon.” Simple yet to the point.

Anything else we should know? I love you all like brothers and sisters. Sometimes I argue with some of you but in the end we all have the same thing in common… We all are here because we love Halo. 🙂
