Bought Halo 4 last night and it seriously looks incredible and plays great especially taking into account its running on a 360 if pc developers put that much time and production value into games PC gaming would be in a different place right now.

No joke its like Microsoft have enabled a second hidden GPU for halo 4 before anyone says of course they haven't I know that but looking at halo 3 and then halo 4 it looks like a console generation jump.

No. Xbox is terrible and a waste of money. Rather invest in Apple Stock.

Awesome multiplayer 10/10 for me. 30fps sucks but you get used to it.

Got Halo 4 in today, that was for my son. I said before I wouldn't play it because I'm use to my top of the line enthusiast PC, but WOW. Watching my son play the first couple levels of campaign. Holy crap I'm impressed!! How can the graphics look this damn good on these ancient consoles??? 343 must have some miracle workers in their department cause I'm just blown away. Texture look damn right amazing, lighting is pretty great(for consoles), sound is top notch. All greatly improved from Halo Reach. If not mistaken the game looks to be running 1080p @ 30fps which is amazing in itself with the high texture quality. There is no anti-ailiasing, but you can't have everything.

Never thought the game would look this good on consoles, I might have to jump on some MP with some friends

Pick it up, no questions. Looks and feels amazing, multiplayer plays very well. Haven't finished the campaign yet, but I'm already inclined to say this is the best Halo yet IMO

This is really simple. You have a 360, you like fps, why wouldn't you get halo 4? If you can't afford it, rent it, save up for it, or play it at a friend's house. Forget all these nay-sayers. This is the 360 title you have to own/play this year.
