Woot, not only will we be getting Valhalla remade, but now we have PROOF that the Mantis is a playable vehicle in MULTIPLAYER! Not just campaign.

Thanks to “Talents” on NeoGaf for the link.

Valhalla confirmed as remade map in Halo 4. Now called Ragnarok!

Posted on by

Yes!!! Valhalla was one of my favorite maps from Halo 3. SO glad it’s being remade. Loving the new name of it too.

Ragnarok refers to end of the earth in Norse mythology. IN comic books it refers to the epic battle between Thor and the Jormungand the Midgard Serpent. Thor kills Jormungand, but dies due to a slow poisoning from the serpent.

Anyway, as soon as I find a screenshot of the map, you know I’ll be posting it!!!

Oh, I guess I should have said this was confirmed coming from Frank O’Conner at the Eurogamer con in London.

Newly Released Halo 4 Screenshots 9-26-12: Spartan Ops

Posted on by

JUST released (within the last few hours of this article) come some fantastic screenshots from Halo 4. Here are 6 shots of the Spartan Ops!

Hmm, now what is that blue bubble for??

Wow this is VAST! Seeing those columns coming from the sky, knowing it’s part of an armored shield for the entire planet…just jaw dropping. This place is MUCH bigger than a Halo ring.

Crimson Squad in action. While we will follow the events of Majestic Squad (which I believe will be led by Commander Sarah Palmer), we as gamers will play as part of Crimson Squad.

A “Didact Dog” (Alpha Crawler) and a Watcher converge on two members of Crimson Squad.

Who let the (Didact) dawgs out! The crawlers are bigger than many people thought. They are roughly 8 feet in length.

SIT. STAY! Good dog.

Are you excited for Halo 4 yet????

Okay, the level of detail in this shot of a UNSC facility is just SICK!! I’m salivating, just wanting to play on it!

Another view, but from the ground.

(Powder) Blue team in action. Is this really the blue team color? I hope it’s darker than that.

Blood Red visor! Awe yeah!

Note the cool holo-display on the plasma pistol.

INFECTED, new….FLOOD! Screw Zombies, now we get to be flood! Yes!! Can I say I love 343??? (Is that Asparagus in the background? LOL)

Next up Spartan Ops screenshots. Stay Tuned.
