Granted this won't get you exactly what's included in the MC: Collection, which features a remastered version of Halo 1 and 2 as well as full multiplayer support and...EVERY MULTIPLAYER MAP EVER. That's obviously the better deal, but if your aging Xbox 360 is looking for a workout, perhaps this will scratch that itch before you pull the trigger on an Xbox One.

Truth be told, Halo 4’s multiplayer/co-op modes have quite the fashion statements about them. Fans of the game like to stand out from the crowd, or at least make their Spartan avatars look as cool as possible. To do that, weapon and armor skins are the thing to turn to. Well, if new skins are what you are searching for, look no further than the new line of Halo 4 actions figure that will include the new DLC along with them.

343 Studios will be putting out a massive weapon update to Halo 4 very soon. As a part of an ongoing effort to balance the game and ensure fair play and longevity, the team at 343 will be changing something about virtually every weapon in the arsenal. The patch will roll out for the Xbox 360 on June 3. Perhaps the biggest change will be made to the Battle Rifle, which will see an increase and damage, and the capability of killing a player in four bursts. Conversely, the rate of fire has been decreased for the gun, and the reticle range for auto-aim has been decreased. For a complete list of the weapons tweaks that will come as a part of the update, take a look below.

We're back with another co-op walkthrough of the latest chapter in Halo 4's Spartan Ops campaign. We're up to chapter 7 this week, with the missions once again being mixed up quite a bit from the previous formula. There's three brand new maps to play on, with the majority of them taking place aboard Infinity itself. These missions also feature some of the most intense firefights we've seen to date in Spartan Ops.

Axis Animation became famous for their award winning trailer for Dead Island, but their more recent work is even more impressive - creating all of the CGI cut scenes for Halo 4 and Halo 4's Spartan Ops mode. A video posted on Axis Animation's Vimeo page showcases some of the cutscenes from Spartan-Ops and all of the passes of work it took to get them there.
