    From Game Informer:

    To wrap up our week of Halo 4 multiplayer coverage, we wanted to speak directly about our experience with the game. While on the cover story trip visiting 343 Industries, we had a blast playing a couple of multiplayer matches with the developers. There is a lot of new information to process, and we hope this feature serves as a sufficient summary on what to expect when you get your hands on the game this fall. Watch the video via the link below to see Game Informer editors Matt Miller and Bryan Vore share their thoughts on the changes to multiplayer in Halo 4 with associate editor Kyle Hilliard.

    Last week, for our Friday Caption Fun festivities, you provided quips for an image featuring a rather unusual Halo vehicle. Here are the top captions you left for that particular image!

    Halo: Reach Screenshot

     

    “Roads? Where we’re going, we don’t need roads.” –a parody
    “The only force more dangerous than the Covenant? A foe humanity has faced from the beginning: mud.” –S1LV3RH00D
    “It’s 2552, and still no flying cars… but who cares?! We have THIS!” –Xenoblade013
    “Okay, just make sure Kat doesn’t… oh -Yoink!-” –VRTX Raptor
    “Though the vehicle was fully capable of it, Bill refused to splatter anyone,
    in fear that they might scratch the paint job.” –Pending storm
    “Why are there six pedals if there are only four directions?” –Blake Jimenez
    “Although initially impressed with the speed of the new Warthog, Spartan-327 Mark soon realized
    that the lack of off-road capabilities severely hindered its performance on the battlefield.” –FSR HoneyBadger
    “They see me rollin’, they be hatin’.” –Coux73
    “Stupid traffic, I should be killing Grunts by now!” –AKG Range



    Now that we’ve wrapped up that picture, let’s start a new one. Up for your captioning pleasure this week is an image featuring a flexible Spartan. Soak in the screenshot, then leave your witty and relevant quip in a comment. Off you go!

    Looks like a content embargo was supposed to end sometime today – Halo 4 assets showed up on Famitsu, in Japan, as well as allgamesbeta, and a French gaming blog. I haven’t seen them on any official press outlets yet – but they’re all over the internet, so it seems pointless to avoid mentioning them. They run the gamut from character shots to concept art to in-game screens – for folks drooling in anticipation of news about Halo 4, it’s a goldmine!(Louis Wu 16:31:48 UTC)

It covers the topic of Halo Anniversary, runs about an hour long, and weighs in at 30 mb. Go listen!(Louis Wu 16:30:03 UTC)

    We’re bringing in the big guns for our latest MLG show. We have MLG Halo commentator Bravo on the show to help us discuss the multiplayer aspects revealed for Halo 4 thus far and how they may be implemented or utilized in the MLG Pro Circuit. Features like permanent sprint and random weapon drops have the potential to change the way MLG plays, so we take time to speculate how these would affect gameplay. We also have Nak3d Eli and JakFireDragon on the show. Enjoy
