Halo 4 Game of the Year Box Art!
In case you haven’t seen this yet…
Gah, I’m tempted to get this just for that box art! Would LOVE it as a poster!!!
And look at the fine print…”Includes NEW Master Chief Avatar Cloak” inspired by Halo for XBOX One.

Wish I had one of these. Bet you do too…
Imagine having an ALL Access pass for the Halo 4 Global Championship…
You’d get to hob-nob with all of the 343 personalities, watch the players compete…
and who knows what else?
I just wish I was there, first, let alone having an ALL Access pass.
Maybe I’ll get there next year?

The Halo 4 Global Championship stage…dark in anticipation.
The stage is set for the finals, but it’s dark…..
Who will be the Elite Eight to sit in these chairs for the finals???
Who will be the FINAL TWO to be showcased up on these screens?
It’s a mystery right now. However, we’ll have a much better idea come later today.
