Considering that the Didact's crest appeared at the end of the trailer, I'd guess that he (in Bornstellar's body) will appear at some point.

Alright, I'm asking you guys for some advice. :)

So I pre-ordered Halo 4 at Best Buy not too long ago. But now I'm thinking that I may want to get the Limited Edition. Did any of you guys order it, and do you think it's worth it?

(I'm a pretty big fan of the Halo Series, I have every game, but I'm not obsessed with it also. So I'm wondering if the Limited Edition is even worth my time)

Yeah, I'd say it's worth the money. Look at all of that juicy reading material. And some other things.

The reading material doesn't mean shit. The legendary edition gets a major unfair advantage over everybody else, in that they get access to two specializations earlier than everyone else. E.G. it's like getting a major perk in COD before everyone else gets it, like Ghost or some other major useful perk.

Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the V.P. is such a V.I.P., shouldn't we keep the P.C. on the Q.T.? 'Cause if it leaks to the V.C. he could end up M.I.A., and then we'd all be put out in K.P.

The Carbine is fantastic, and the armour is starting to look nicer to me now than when i first saw it.

Did you read the link though, in Infection, the infected are the Floor and instead of an energy sword they have a claw.
Now we can make for some actual scary gametypes, as while the gameplay of infection is fun, the suspense is killed by the green armor and the glowing blue sword.

Turncoat, the BR85SR HB will be awesome.

Though I will have to say the days of taking out everyone who isn't in good armour in an enemy patrol with a few quick headshots will be welcomed back warmly by me.

Definetly will be avoiding the campaign though. Wish they didn't ruin the canon with the bastard spawn Cryptum books. Somebody clearly needs a lesson in why you're supposed to leave the mysterious race mysterious.

The gunship does indeed remind me of a Hind.. Good thing that's my favourite Soviet-made helicopter.
