Get ready gamers! - Halo 4 Official Website Sunday, November 04, 2012 The Xbox 360 has many trademark exclusives that make it the system to own for gamers all over the world. But there is one franchise with no competition in terms of saving the universe with machine guns and plasma grenades. Spartans, grab your battle rifles, because Halo 4 is coming fast. The world renowned franchise, originally developed by Bungie, has taken up new management under 343 Industries for the beginning of what is rumored to be a new Halo trilogy. When the change was announced along with the game, speculation arose as to whether 343 could live up to the standards of this explosive juggernaut of a first person shooter. But as we come closer and closer to release, preview footage and gameplay have shown that they have no intention of disappointing the fans. Halo 4 will be reintroducing all multiplayer game modes that so many are so fond of, along with several “twists” and new additions to keep players on their toes. A new spartan points system is being added to multiplayer, which will be used to level up and buy equipment to use in the field.   Players can choose to customize their armor with thick and bulky upgrades to gain shields at the cost of speed, or run around light, fast, and vulnerable. Halo 4 is offering several new options for customization, from an expanded weapon selection, to new abilities, and the return of the ever popular forge world mechanic. 343 industries is aiming to create a faster pace for Halo 4 than its predecessors, allowing players to “jump higher and move faster to make you feel more like a Spartan super soldier”.
