The New 'Analyze! Scan!'
During the Microsoft presser, you might have noticed Halo 4 play a supporting role in the showing-off of the new "Xbox Smart Glass" technology. It featured some very cool new Waypoint integration with the game itself, something you can check out right here. Looks awesome! (GrimBrother One 19:47:02 UTC) (permalink)

Commissioning
If you were wondering about that live-action bit at the beginning of the Halo 4 presentation, it looks not not be a part of the upcoming Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn webfilm series, but instead is a standalone live-action trailer called "Commissioning", and you can catch it all by its lonesome right here. Check it out! (GrimBrother One 19:44:15 UTC) (permalink)

A few things to mention before stuff goes nuts, Der Flatulator picked up something on Reddit's r/halo that surprised me, mainly because I'm not a huge fan of the Infection gametype. This game clip however, is down right bonkers. Amazing work! (GrimBrother One 13:16:04 UTC) (permalink)
