Halo 4 – hands-on impressions
The Pixel Press writes: "There's no denying that the Halo series has seen a lot of love this generation – some would say too much – but following the phenomenal success of Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2 on Microsoft's original hulk of a console, we've been treated to no less than five instalments on the 360, propelling the space-hopping FPS to worldwide phenomenon status, and cementing the series as Xbox's, and indeed Microsoft's, flagship franchise.
Originally planned to be a trilogy, Halo has seen spinoffs in the form of Halo Wars, tangential releases such as Halo 3: ODST and Halo: Reach, and of course last year's Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary. Now, 343 Industries intend to extend the series with another three mainline games, so you can finish the fight. Again. Starting with Halo 4."
