      Greatest ever on console will be a bit of a hurtle given that Far Cry pretty much owns this space, but I'm looking forward to 343's attempt to take the mantle. I hope they succeed.

      I must admit I really like that final map callout #8.

      Yes! Look at all the competitive maps they've spot lighted!

      Tickled pink to see that I was mentioned... Then I saw that I'm in there twice!! Great article. Like many, I'll be a busy mofo once H5 forge comes out.

      FYI my Sumo maps are inspired by the Sumo minigame in Fuzion Frenzy.

      Is it just me or does that Brumak have something a little extra downstairs that the OXM editors didn't catch.

      Cool that forge is getting some light. And good job to you (war) and sean. Although the forge creations here all are well deserving I'm quite sad to see not even a single competitive or core map was showcased. There are plenty that show the possibilities of looks and functionality that could've been shown in a picture. Kind of feels like the article was simply showing the art/fun aspects rather than the design and the hard work it takes to make a map play with a competitive audience. Either way, still grateful to see forge as a whole not go unnoticed like it mostly has in the past. And with Halo 5 we need to show everyone that some forgers have the ability to be not only an artist but that we can create map on the same as devs since that obviously isn't what most of the outsiders relate us too.

      There are a bunch of mislabeled annotations in the article. If you take a look at the text compared to picture, you'll see that it corresponds to the wrong game. While the interview the wacky fun factor of forge, I also wished there were some core maps featured. So, lets kick some dev butts and make some great maps in H5!

      I plan too! And I'll be there to provide some help and a different perspective to you and anyone else so that they can do the same. I'm pumped. Plus, were going to have to make up for the lacking map pool.
