Other Halo 4 news:

343 has said that there will be a remake of a larger big team battle style map. No real concert info about what classic map would return but that seems to have changed with the release of a leak or press video that shows players at an Halo 4 expo playing in a large map that was a perfect/exact remake of Valhalla. It will now be called or renamed Ragnarok.

Also, in the same video, the new driveable vehicle called a Mantis -which was thought to be only playable in the campaign- but in that video you can clearly see it walking around in a few short views.

Here's the article if you want to read:

This video is not ground breaking by any means, but it does a nice job of putting together various details and explaining how they all come together to impact your Spartan. I'm thinking that this will be impacting in both campaign and matchmaking, but for me, matchmaking is clearly the area you will see these all come together and change your experience. After watching the video it still raises several questions for me. Like; why is one of the "tactical packages" called "resupply" being explained as allowing you to recover grenades from fallen friends and foes? This has always been something you could do in Halo. Will they find more or something, or will this be restricted without this tactical package?

Ok, I have watched many Halo 4 videos and trailors now and I have to admit that there is something very, very, special about a Mech tea-baggining a fallen foe! I think this is the first vehicle capable of tea-bagging. This really has me wanting to play this game.

Enjoy!!!

As much as I wanna support Amazon/BP, they are really making it hard to continue to pre order games from there...Their deals are quickly becoming some of the worst out there, If I didn't have almost $100 racked up in Amazon credit, i would prob pre order H4 from Microsoft store, as last I checked they have a $25 credit for the microsoft store, whereas Amazon has a $10 credit for Instant Videos (can't even use it for video games).

And not to mention Amazon's shipping is going up as their release day shipping is no longer cheap (i believe it's like $8 now for release date shipping if you don't have Prime, which I no longer have :( )

Yeah, I'm not sure where I'm going to preorder this from yet...the M$ store looks enticing, as I could get FIFA for cheap along with Halo. But I also have the credit from NCAA trade in on Amazon, which I have prime, but their preorder bonus' have gone downhill.
