    I claim none of these videos mine.
    Feel free to discuss some armor/skin/customize-able options for Halo 4. Express ideas, explain what can be improved upon/what needs to be taken out.

    Question: What are you exited for? Do you prefer simple customize-able options or advanced options as shown in the leaks? Also, what armor would you bring back/introduce?

    me- Im exited for being able to make my spartan unique and different from the rest. I loved the halo 3 options but as I come accross other players looking the same as me, Im looking foreward to more advanced options. I would bring back Hayabusa (h3) and CQC (Reach). And I would also introduce the arbiter armor, the mysterious helmet in Reach's menu backgrounds, and the strange hornet pilot helmet the AI's wore in the Halo 3 Campaign. :)

    Probably just another way for people to spend extra money on special editions. There's also the possibility they will be purchased in the marketplace.

    The skins themselves I think are completely unnecessary and detract from the sense of this being Halo and not Call of Duty. I like Call of Duty but I also like Halo as a separate game.

    Im not really sure where they're going with it but im sure it will still seem halo as from what I've seen. Halo gameplay is still so far different from COD its probably not going to be too much of an issue for me.

    I agree with pyro, some of these are just overdone, like Barbie and Fetti. UNSC, ONI, and some others fit fine. I don't know if the skin will show on all BRs you encounter.

    Oh no. Skins? Really? Is this cabelas deer hunt? And that map that they played in the MLG video looks like it sucks. For slayer anyway. I wonder if they'll have infection.

    I like the idea of skins, it just makes you stand out more in ffa and other game types like infection etc. As for the skins affecting gameplay, um not at all, no matter how much you can modify your weapon oh say new optics etc (probably not modified rounds for weapons that would be too much) halo 4 will be by no means a cod, cod becomes completely different in certain game modes due to the modification of weapons. Even basic gameplay makes the game erratic and fast paced, halo has always had a need for teamwork, cod you don't have to if you don't wana.

    I just wish that you would be able to customize the color of each individual armor piece, not just being limited to primary and secondary. I liked Halo 3's colors, but somewhat disliked Halo: Reach's colors.

    Also, I want them to put something similar to a katana back in Halo 4. I miss my katana from Halo 3. But it's just a suggestion.

    I know this sounds stupid and all, but I would love the feature to switch from helmet to no helmet (like in ODST). Maybe choose your character's facial features? THAT would be awesome.
    -Plus sniping someone without a helmet would be..
    :O

    sounds pretty cool in theory, but the energy shield aspect of the mjolnir armor kind of screws it up
