And yeah snappng things together with magnets is going to make it less frustraitng to make maps thats for sure.
Nice to see a lot of thought appears to have gone into every aspect of this game.

Hell yeah! My friend will be getting this primarily for forge, and it will be a ton more fun building maps when it is easier to use, and not so precise. lol

Either a review copy, or it's leaked.

I'm betting its someone @ MS or 343. It's still too early for review copies to go out. The game went gold ~1 week ago.

Hopefully they don't fuck up the packaging.

One was campaign gameplay and the other was the game loading up and it showed you the menus. I'm sure we will see more videos.

Pics of people's accounts who have it in the spoiler tags.

Welp, it doesn't look isolated either, I don't think this is a case of someone got hold of a copy by chance etc, there is probably a ISO doing the rounds on a newsgroup or something. So now the Internet is unsafe for Halo 4 spoilers. So either get out now!

Or go dark.

If that is the case than that persons xbl account should be banned soon if it isn't already.

**dc89** · 10-13-2012

In the spoiler tags you can see the main menu.

MS are facing a full on leak now, it's on torrent sites.

**A7MAD** · 10-13-2012

Yeah it's been leaked.

I do admit I modded a 360 and downloaded the torrent to play it.

Game is fantastic, looks superb, best Halo and best looking 360 game ever.

I do have the LE game already pre-ordered and paid for but I just couldn't scratch the itch any other way...

Yep, I saw your comments on TXB. You said that it will make the haters cry. lol

Yeah...

It's really that good. Anyone hating on it will be more upset than they thought when everyone will be talking about Halo 4.

MS and 343i did good on their promise to keep Halo relevant after Bungie left.

**mynd** · 10-13-2012

This has to be a pressing disc pressing level doesn't it?
I mean the games is still technically a way way from retail.
This isn't going to stop fans from buying it I don't think.

**A7MAD** · 10-13-2012

Fans will buy it no doubt, the game is absolutely fantastic and worth the price of admission.

It seems the discs got leaked at the pressers.

I stopped playing it because I have to go and pick up my pre-order on the 6th still plus I got other games I purchased to play that I've fell behind on.

Can't.Wait.

I've been playing Halo:Reach recently to quench my thirst

It's interesting you mention best looking 360 game ever. Forza Horizon is getting huge praise for how damn good it looks on such old hardware and I'm sure Halo 4 will get the same appreciation. It's crazy how good these games are looking, and they're open world!

The sounds are awesome also, BF like quality.

343i and Turn 10 are the Naughty Dog's and Santa Monica Studio's of the MS flavoring.

Who'd have thought that when Bungie left MS that 343i would not only keep the quality and feel of Halo alive but go ahead and better it!?

Visually it's an orgasm waiting to happen, runs smooth as butter and looks absolutely fantastic.

I do have 1 gripe and that was AI, however I was playing on normal difficulty.

I had no intention to play the entire SP because I have the Limited Edition pre-ordered and fully paid for.

The game comes with 4 avatar awards and a new dashboard update, booting through the JTAG I deleted the update folder to play it. I'm not in the beta but I assume it's the retail new dashboard.

People laughed at me when I said that 343 was going to improve the series. But I knew they would once I saw the talent that they had onboard.

**F34R** · 10-13-2012

A7MAD is spot on. This game is freakin' gorgeous to say the least.

just been watching some vids of the game and i'm struggling to understand how a 360 can run the game.
it looks fantastic.

**F34R** · 10-13-2012

Yeah, putting up some HD videos of this thing is soooooooo wanted to be done. I've capped some great footage already. I'm not going to get into spoilers, etc. Can't wait to get my retail copies for online, etc.

**dc89** · 10-13-2012

Halo 4's creative director is disappointed in you guys.

I've worked for over 3 years making Halo 4. Please avoid spoilers and leaks from thieves for 3 more weeks until the game is out. Thank you.

Agreed. I remember Corrine Yu (lead programmer) saying how the 360 hardware wasnt really being utilized by most developers and how her team was going to push the hardware. And I know we've heard that before about these consoles but it looks like Corrine Yu put her money where her mouth is and delivered the goods.
