Halo 4 promises big year for Xbox (images)
At its annual Spring Showcase, Microsoft and many of its video game developer partners showed off the best of what's coming on the leading console this year. Master Chief is the biggest name of all.
Halo 4
This holiday season, Master Chief fans get yet another chance to delve deep into the world of their hero. For the first time, 343 Industries takes over the Halo franchise, with Halo 4, which picks up where Halo 3 left off in 2007.
In this new game, players will have the chance to explore Master Chief's humanity--and to go Spartan on Spartan.
