OK. We know Microsoft accidentally spoiled their biggest surprise of the evening by somehow managing to leak their entire E3 (LA based games convention) conference announcements on their own website. And we know it's not the only Halo game coming out in the near future - we've got Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, a remake of the game that started it all coming this November - and that's happening a whole lot sooner. But there's still a special feeling in the air whenever a Halo game's announced - and, with a new studio at the helm, we have a feeling this one could be something very special indeed.
He's back.
Unveiled at Microsoft's recent E3 conference in Los Angeles, Halo 4 kicks off an entirely new triolgy in the Halo universe, picking up where Halo 3 left off, [Spoiler Alert] with the Master Chief stranded who knows where, after being caught up in an explosion when the last Halo ring fired. [/Spoiler]What do we know about the latest instalment in Microsoft's blockbuster sci-fi franchise? Not much, we're afraid. Famed for their storylines, co-op gameplay and soundtrack, the wise money would be put on Halo 4 being a co-operative, first person shooter, with a particularly epic storyline to get the new trilogy off to a bang, much like the first game - and if the teaser trailer below's anything to go by, Halo 4 won't disappoint. It'll be sad to play through a game without one of Martin O'Donnel's epic scores, though.You can find the first teaser trailer below. Warning: Contains spoilers for Halo 3. Release is set for 2012, most likely near Christmas. To be honest, it can't come soon enough.
