Thread Starter 
Just got a 360 mainly for Black ops 2 when it comes out. I did have fun playing halo 2 multiplayer. Will I be wow'ed getting halo 4 for its multiplayer or not? I am debating on pre-ordering it.

Here is a video I made a few days back in CTF

Im not a huge Console gamer. I mostly play PC RTS, RPG, and adventure games.

But HALO is one franchise that ill never miss. Based on all the data the Microsoft has supplied, gameplay videos, etc. I would highly suggest you grab a copy.

The multiplayer is bound to be amazing.

I will most likely be purchasing it, but it's still to early to tell. I would like it to be out for a bit and read some reviews NOT from game sites. I have some friends who will certainly buy it and I'd like to see what it's like by actually playing it before I purchase it.

I don't know. The fact they have a whole game studio dedicated to Halo would make me think and feel that it has to be good, and not just another EA slopmess.

My love for Halo is so great, I am going to buy this game and beat it, no matter how good or bad it scores.
I don't do that for many franchises.

I'm going to assume Halo 4 multilayer is going to be pretty much like Halo 2. So if you want to play Halo 2 with new guns, maps, and game styles pick it up.

It is the best game series EVER with no real competition . You would be foolish to NOT pick up Halo 4.

Personally i could not care less about online play. i am in it for the storyline and the campaign only.

Eh I dunno man. I do love the Halo campaign and I think the story is pretty impressive but they are just to short to justify spending 60 bucks imo. The multiplayer however while not being the best multiplayer gameplay ever, IS the best console multiplayer gaming period.

Its goin to be a great game, I just can't make myself go back to playing consoles. I bought it for my 9 y/o son though. Him and his friends have been pumped up about it for months.
