Okay, now someone tell me why the hell this game isn’t on XBOX Live Arcade? Or rather give me a good reason why it shouldn’t be? I know this is supposed to be for Windows 8 devices, but come on…there are thousands of Halo fans that can’t afford or don’t want a Win8 device\/upgrade, but would GLADLY pay for this on XBLA. I’m one of them. The app is only $7. Heck, I’d pay double that for it on XBLA!!! 343???<\/p>\n

This is such a beautiful looking game and looks fun to play. I watched Dust Storm from Podtacular play this for a couple of hours on his Twitch stream. Was jealous and excited to watch and play at the same time!<\/p>\n

Come on 343\/Microsoft, do right by the whole Halo community and bring this to XBLA!!!!<\/p>\n
