Can't wait for Halo 5 and 6 for next-gen box, the Reclaimer trilogy.

Loved Halo 4. The graphics they got out of the 360 are pretty amazing. The CG cut scenes too were possibly the best of any game I've ever played. The story was pretty good too, but I was a little disappointed there wasn't really a big showdown with the antagonist. At least not in the way I wanted.

Curious, is everything wrapped in Shiny Saran Wrap in Halo 4 like it was in 3? Rocks, dirt, leaves, sand...?

Probably won't ever play it as I sold my 360 not long after Hal 3 came out. , but inquiring minds would like to know.....

Splitscreen had to be coded to cut draw distance, object count, transparency rendering, cut frame rate during battles.

I dont think its as shiny. I really like how they changed the MP how you dont camp for weapons you have to kill a certain number of people for "ordnance" and it gives you 3 random items to choose from.

I still don't understand why they can't make multiplayer maps good like they were in halo 2...

No, Halo 3 used HDR lighting. Halo 4 doesn't.
