 "Halo 4 Game of the Year Edition to hit stores in October")
It looks like Halo 4 will be getting a second wind. Microsoft has revealed to Polygon that the game is getting a Game of the Year Edition, which is slated for an October release. In the US, the price is set to be $49.99 (Rs 3,300 approx). However, there has been no word on whether the Halo 4 Game of the Year Edition will be making its way to Indian shores.
“A Game of the Year Edition of Halo 4 will be offered this October, offering tremendous value for fans who want to enjoy one of the most critically acclaimed games of 2012, and additional DLC all in one place,” the spokesperson told Polygon. “We will have more details to share during the live stream of the Halo Global Championship Finals this Sunday.”
Just in case you forget who Master Chief is
According to an earlier report from IGN , the Game of the Year Edition is set to feature the first season of Spartan Ops, the War Games Map Pass and the Halo 4 Champions Bundle along with all of the DLC included in the pre-order and Limited Collector’s Editions of the game. Of course, Microsoft hasn’t confirmed any of this.
Developed by 343 Industries, Halo 4 marks the dawn of a new game series, the Reclaimer Saga, centered on the Master Chief as he faces an ancient evil and a deadly new class of technologically advanced foes — the Prometheans. Master Chief sets out on an emotional journey fraught with personal demons and the most daunting challenges he’s ever faced. Featuring a darker and more personal story that reintroduces the iconic hero as a genuinely human character, Halo 4 sets players on a sci-fi voyage that will span the next decade of Halo games, across a three part trilogy.
Halo 4’s multiplayer offering through War Games, will take place on the Spartan training ship Infinity and will tie into the game’s story. Halo 4 will come shipped with Forge toolset, the in-game map builder further enhanced from Halo 3. Allowing players to design their own multiplayer maps, the Forge toolset with three unique environments has the ability to alter any current and future War Games map.

Ever heard of one of those people who just never seem to shut up about something? Shunal is like the nerd equivalent of that guy. Believe us when we say that he can go on talking about games and smartphones for hours on end. We do manage to find some insight in his insane ramblings though, and through his moronic facade, he does seem to know more than he lets on. Sadly enough, it always ends up being about gaming with him. Or stupid, stupid puns.
