Anti-Alaising has already been confirmed to not be in the build we saw. But it is in the latest build and will have it in final game.

Only Multiplayer shown so far so we can reasonably expect better Single player graphics...not that what's shown isn't impressive already. Xbox Live Gold subscription, here I come!
It looks more like they are adding Quick Time Events.

Some of the great sequences in Reach happened in first person, but then they screwed it up by having fade to black transitions. Hopefully they do seamless transitions this time around.
anyway these are my thoughts as somebody who found reach to be pretty boring.
pros:
SP graphics look good
game will be more character based
BR is back
frankie's stubble
music sounds good (if its anything played in that game is for game, that is)
not bungie developing it
new enemies/story and other shit
cons:
multiplayer graphics do not look v good
call of doody perks poop getting into halo
could be more of the same (doesnt look like they want to pull away from gameplay/pacing)
i dont want to pay for xbox live

I'll believe it when I see it.

FINALLY! a halo with an up to date art style. I had a lot of issues with Halo Reach's art design with the characters. They had weak specular map and very poor Baked AO. This time the specularity isnt as blatant as Halo 3's but its definitely noticable aswell as good baked AO and contrast which gives the character a whole lot of depth as opposed to Reach's terribly flat characters.
This is purely design as these things dont technically slow down the game one bit. It all came down to the art design and it seems really great in this edition.
The lighting is also much better than any previous halo games, it seems up to par with the latest current gen games.
The textures probably wont be super high res like in Reach but the overall image will be more "pretty". CANT WAIT!

Getting 720p with "just" 2xAA alone would require some sort of black magic.
If they are keeping with a deferred lighting set up, they won't be using MSAA, so it's most likely FXAA.
Frankie told us this.......
I actually went back and checked and there is a very subtle HUD bob there.

How about you believe it because Frankie said it himself? Is it really that hard?

Alan Wake uses deffered rendering and has 4xMSAA with FXAA. Delicious
I hear you. Still, I'll believe it when I see it. So far, this looks just as jagged as H3 and Reach did.
Hopefully the next ViDocs will be AA'd up.

Wow, well my hype has officially started with Halo 4
My first Halo game was Combat Evolved and I loved it due to me playing on the PC Halo 2 and 3 I really only played for the story as I didn't really want to deal with the multiplayer crowd (I did play multiplayer though).
But wow, Halo 4 is looking great. I might have to pull out my 360 again

This is true. There was a difference between halo 2 speed and halo 3 speed. Halo 3 speed was rather slow unless you're talking about MLG Halo 3.
In terms of speed
Halo 2 = MLG Halo 3 > Halo 3

The outline looks identical to the footage that was in that 343 video earlier last week here: http://i.minus.com/iucIByVWvZuNh.gif
I'm guessing there's an option to make it transparent or not.

Incredible! I'm super excited for 343 Industries. If I may add that if MS can keep forming these top-notch studios similar to what Sony's doing with their first party, it's going to be quite enjoyable next gen.
This better not be a QTE. Looks exactly like the 20+ times I pried open a door in Syndicate by hammering X. Hopefully a cut scene.
However, even the possibility of a QTE in Halo does nothing to undermine my happiness at the return of the BR. Game looks nice and fast and jump height nice and high. Looks like it will return to the "feel" of old Halo while maintaining certain Reach elements like sprint.
Holiday 2012 is soooooo far away.

ooookay, I have a fan for some reason. Sorry for actually asking questions about the game.
Bless this gif! I was trying to pause the youtube video right after the melee hits to see how much damage it does. Looks like the shields pop. Now, we don't know if he had low shields already but if I had to guess I would say that he doesn't. (No shield glow, 2 teammates rolling behind him) Certainly possible that he was already weak but that's my guess. Not a huge deal anyway, that could change.
I'm just trying to get any details about multiplayer that I can lol

I'm more interested in the SP and co-op then the MP.
Halo MP is only really enjoyed by the most dedicated and suffers for that fact. Can't really tell anything about the IQ from a few brief YT snippets.
So far its pretty meh. =/

so we just have the 1 video right? i was hoping for some sp footage
Hopefully it's just things like spawning with more ammo/grenades/etc.
This 1st shot is not real time, right?

probably have to wait till e3 for that.
It looks real. Like...a real picture taken with a camera lol

Also they teased that the mp will be connected to the sp ala Mass Effect 3 I'm guessing.

It is.
Watch the ViDoc. The camera spins around Master Chief for a couple of secs resulting in the 1st pic you see.

If you want I could slow down the MP .gifs so you can scrutinize them.

It is, but there's only like 3 frames of that scene. (add some more if you want to add in the fade in from the previous shot)

Fuck yes hold me! Is that all the infO released thus far? OP seems bare.
Kind of looks like the autovista stuff in Forza.

They're just improving upon Reach's Kat dat ass tech.
Be sure to keep us updated on any new finds.
