From the incredible sounding music, to the whole "vision" 343 are going for...now to THIS!

I can't FUCKING wait for Halo 4!!!!!!!!!!

 

[FullMetalx]

better than halo 3 box art, thats for sure.

 

[SykoTech]

I'm clicking it, but it won't enlarge. :/

Great boxart though.

 

[The Librarian]

What's with all the "blue and orange" comments? There's hardly any orange on the boxart.

 

[krystallinity]

Fine, get your hopes up. I'm just saying multiple people all saw and read the same thing, but ok.

I'm not "getting my hopes up," I'm just saying there's really no reason for Microsoft not to include it, especially since it's been in a Halo title by 343 Industries before and Microsoft's E3 conferences are 90% Kinect related these days.

It's like Activision deciding to not release a Call of Duty game for six years...it just doesn't make any sense.

 

[yankeehater]

I love it. It looks like Master Chief verses Unicron.

 

[AnathemicOne]

I approve of this thread. Dat boxart

 

[Garrett 2U]

What's with all the "blue and orange" comments? There's hardly any orange on the boxart.

Plus complementary colors are used all the time in artwork.

Looks like he's using Armor Lock LOL

 

[BigTnaples]

I am holding out some hope for Kinect functionality.

Its not like the game will be motion controlled or anything.

Mass Effect 3 used Kinect, and my play-through was better because of it.

Skyrim now uses Kinect, and it is a better more fluid game because of it.


Hating something just to hate it is much too prevalent on GAF.

Ok, I see where this is going.

Need a photoshop to post on the official forums. Lol

 

[Ghost_Protocol]

Looks fantastic

 

[abacab driver]

Yeah, thats excellent boxart. Well done.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

That's pretty sexy.

I never really understood Halo's M rating. It's not really particularly graphic, and while there's a little language, it's not that bad either

It's to get 14-year-olds to want to buy it.

 

[Fracas]

I agree. I would put a game like Uncharted into the "M" category. Lots and lots of blood and swearing. Easily worse than Halo in that regard.

 

[Bgamer90]

I never did either to be honest.

Especially taking this into consideration lol:

The COD games after COD2 got M ratings though (obviously).

 

[shinnn]

Apparently they might announce it at E3.

But if they don't, then yeah, all right.

It still sounds like a very strange move, especially considering that Halo: Anniversary had it.

Anniversary boxart doesn't have the kinect label though.

 

[Tawpgun]

Nice things being said about Halo on the gaming side?

You're slacking GAF.

 

[rvy]

Wow, that is amazing.

 

[Genesis Knight]

I've definitely never understood the Halo M rating, either. Hilarious that games like Halo Reach, Bulletstorm, and Gears of War 3 are all the same broad rating.

 

[DopeyFish]

Halo 1 was originally rated T iirc

They changed their mind prior to release though

So it was borderline

 

[Ghost_Protocol]

I want this to be as good as HALO 1.

Some users may experience teabagging and taco-squatting.

 

[Portugeezer]

They still make Halo games?

Awesome box art btw.
.

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

Sick art.

 

[Vire]

I like the text above where the opening to the planet is. Hopefully the final box art is that way.

 

[Kazuma Kiryu]

one of the best covers i've seen. really great job if true.

 

[Buckethead]

Would've liked a closer crop on the chief but that's solid.

 

[Community Forum]

That's not the final box art.

Unless you want it to look like this:

Pretty sure it'll end up like this:

 

[crazy monkey]

Three point landing is epic

 

[SomeOneInaHat]

The composition plays nicely with the mix of organic and rigid line. My eye seemed to follow around the Chief up to the starburst pattern and repelled down to the title. Not to mention the the overall monochromatic color scheme which helps improve the image quality and bring out the most detail.


Am pleased

 

[NIGHT-]

DAT BOXART! So sexy!

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Three point landing is epic

But the Chief's just looking for his contact lens doe

Naked Snake's HALO jump landing wasn't even in the video? Boooooooooooo

 

[Tashi]

It means that you still use words like "weewee" and think jokes about erections are funny.

I was afraid you'd say that

 

[JohnIIVII]

Best boxart yet by far! Love it!

 

[Jinaar]

Transformers crossover!

 

[Tashi]

Orson Welles!!!

 

[B.O.O.M]

Not a big fan of the series or anything but I have to say that box art is fantastic!

 

[mr stroke]

Box art looks really nice. Only 2nd to Halo 2's cover

 

[delta25]

That's fucking awesome.

Box art of the year confirmed.

 

[Vire]

Enemy Types revealed in action figure?

Spoilers for Babies:

No idea what to make of this stuff...

 

[Kaizer]

Godly looking boxart there folks. I'm definitely getting this in November.

 

[Tashi]

I need to make the box art the background of something that I look at everyday.

 

[chickdigger802]

What would the GOTY edition look like?

 

[Garrett 2U]

No idea what to make of this stuff...

Some people are trying to avoid the campaign info, spoiler dat stuff
