Halo 4 Interest Gauge 3000

So Halo 4 is being released tomorrow... and so far the reviews have been really good (pretty high score on Metacritic). Penny Arcade gave it glowing praise as well. Of course, that really doesn't mean much as we all have our own views of such things but so far it looks like it shouldn't totally suck. I look forward to exploring the new world of Requiem and recapturing some of that wonder from the first Halo.

I'm also interested to see how the "rampancy" of the AI Cortana plays out. I hope they actually do something good with it as it has the chance to actually infuse the Master Chief with some modicum of emotion.

Halo: Reach was shit, but this seems to be good again. I have only played about an hour of multiplayer, but so far it seems to be better than all the previous ones (Except it has caught the you-need-to-level-to-customize sickness)

I'm picking it up this afternoon. I couldn't care less about innovation, I just want to have fun playing the game. Halo, thus far, has been fun. When I play online, I generally voice chat with a friend so that we don't have to be subjected to the gaming population.

Now that I have a 7 week old, I won't have the same amount of time to sit down and play it, but I don't have to go out and upgrade my computer to do it...it works just fine on my old Xbox 360. That's a huge reason I'm not a PC gamer.
