Halo 4 Launch Gameplay Trailer
If you missed ‘Sons of Anarchy’ last night, the trailer that showed during the program can be found online – both on Halo Waypoint and on YouTube. It’s an official trailer – which means it contains content that 343 doesn’t think will spoil the game for you… but if you’re staying totally campaign-dark, you should probably skip it, since it DOES tell you a little more about the campaign than you might already know. (It also contains a bit of Multiplayer, and overall is a great piece of promotion.) Enjoy! (Or don’t…)(Louis Wu 10:41:36 UTC)

Forge with Pete 10: Guitar Halo
pete_the_duck surprises me with almost every new Forge With Pete episode… but this latest one (which happens to be the last one) is truly jaw-dropping. He’s created Guitar Halo – you can play a Guitar Hero-style game… in Halo. First he shows you how it plays, then he shows you how he did it. Watch it at Idleduck.com, or Halo Waypoint. Gorbleblorf.
