Halo 4 Launch: Dublin

I just wanted to say a quick word of thanks to the good people at Xbox for asking me to the launch of Halo 4 on Monday night. Since I went back to college, I haven’t really had the time to play many games. I’m the kind that gets stuck into a game and forgets the outside world exists. But now college is done and attending the launch cemented what’s on top on my Christmas want list.

I think the word ‘gorgeous’ just about sums up the graphics on the game. The game takes place in 2557, four years after Halo 3 ends and if first person shooter games are your thing, this is a must have. It can be played as a one player, two player (through split screen) or four player through Xbox Live. Thanks to the nice Xbox peeps for asking me along to 4 Dame Lane and laying on such a great night.

What did I learn from the night? I miss playing games and need to get a lot more practice in. I really really want Halo 4 for Christmas.
