I don't play halo (or any other FPS) but that top-down map view majigger seems awfully game-breaking in favour of those with windows phones.
actually, after watching the video, it looks like the opposing team won't be displayed which makes it not much better than just being in voice chat with the rest of your team.
awesome feature though, would love to see more of this streamy data phone stuff for more games so long as it's free.

This is the Xbox stuff I want to see on Windows Phone! Actual Xbox integration. With this and the remote feature for the new dashboard (a feature I've wanted on my phone since I got it), Microsoft is going in a good direction with the integration.
At this moment, all Xbox on the phone is messaging (no voice messaging for some odd reason), some avatar and profile editing, and overpriced games with cheevos and the Xbox Live brand name (Angry Birds is $3 on WP7 compared to the $.99 iOS versions). Not terrible, but if you really want to put your phone OS as the "Portable Xbox", you need to step up, Microsoft.

wow sounds awesome but she kept saying premium so sounds like it comes with a price tag for the extra features.. but other then that im loving the new setup if i had a windows phone i would be really happy. but sadly i dont. wish i had it
I'm not a fan of the platform, but I also love the level of integration here. I hope something similar comes to competitors, forcing the system to evolve more rapidly. Playstation Suite on Xperia devices might be promising.
@Luna46 Probably for XBL Gold members. But if you're playing online you're gold anyway. Hopefully there's not more because that would be stupid.
But would it keep the interest on Halo up for long. I think there has been too many Halo games that it has become stale compared to better FPS games like Killzone
@The Cast
That was announced at E3...
@Romo
Too many Halo games? While Halo Wars and ODST came out in 2009, one was an RTS, and the other was just a campaign, Reach in 2010 was the next actual release with a multiplayer. Now in 2011 we have CEA, which, like ODST is just campaign with DLC. And then in 2012 we have Halo 4, which will get it's one MP, but it's been in production for quit a while now, from a different developer.
While it may seem like a lot, it's not like they're over-saturating the online market, since Halo 3 (2007) only one of them has had MP.

Au contrare, Halo is officially a franchise now among the masses. Suprisingly, with each installment, it keeps fresh. Halo really is one of the more modern Arena-styled Multiplayer games out there (outside of Quake) so it's approachability attracts everyone. Giving the gam a complete overhaul by removing it from it's roots would piss. PEPOPLE. OFF
Seriously though, even the most powerful sony fanboys (SexualChocolate) and Anti-Halo fans (Rammstein) can find less than decent to moderate enjoyment with the series. And apparently, people who hate halo get either free 360s or free copies of Halo, so keep those hatred points up so you can get free prizes!

LOL at that fucking retard jimmyx. A 360 fangirl talking about a lack of exclusive games? Thank you for proving that 360 owners are the most retarded, uneducated morons on the planet.
@jimmyx
You see, unlike Monti, you can actually have your moments, like Sofik.
But today, you're 12.

Jimmy has a point about the PS3 not having killer MP. What do you think has more hours played online, Resistance or Gears? Killzone or Halo?
Oh, Jimmyx. You so 12. Also, whenever I see your name, I pronounce it "Jimmy-eggs." This is relevant information.
LOL, retard jimmyx. Galo and Gears offer 5 hour campaigns with crap graphics and a retarded story that only someone of 12 years old would find entertaining.
Funny how the last - gen trash on the 360 got laughed out of the building at the 2009 VGA's and all the awards were given to a REAL game like Uncharted 2 instead. 360 idiots eat up 8/10 crap like Gears 3 cause they know it's the best they'll ever get SAD FACT.
Enjoy spending 100 hours online in the most boring, bad - graphics, 8/10 mess on the face of the Earth, cause you know it's the only exclusive you'll have for another 24 moths. Retrard.
