    Wow… I dunno about that armor…. It’s really….. Un-Halo feeling…

    • The MA5 Master

      unless you can do some sort of crazy melee or assassination with it

    • Shane

      It feels Halo. It just doesn’t look human xD Some of the armors for Halo 4 were meant to look forerunner rather than traditional human. They fit it in perfectly. The Forerunners are what the halo world is built on. Also, 343 stated that since the end of the war, the UNSC have been upgrading their technology and basing a lot of their tech off of forerunner design. So it fits into the world perfectly when you take all that into consideration. It would be unreasonable to not have at least some forerunner based spartan suits when considering those facts. There are still gonna be your fair share of human looking armor as well, but it’s good to see this fresh change especially because of the new plot line. Halo still feels Halo, it’s just different than what we are used to xD Think about it like this: When you go out and change your hair style, it’s going to feel kinda out of place, but once you get used to the change you are able to really understand that it still looks good, and fits your taste. My bet is that this same principle will apply to Halo 4 once it comes out. Just think about it, Humans are naturally afraid of change, especially when it comes to changing something they love so dearly, that fear tends to cause us to react negatively until we are able to understand the change. I was afraid of the changes when the game was first revealed but now that I’ve thought about it and seen all the footage and remembered back in the old halo’s I’d always talk about how awesome it would be to fight the forerunners, and get forerunner style armor and that was able to help me realize that this game isn’t going to far from the traditional Halo. It’s rather the opposite. With these new aspects of the game we are actually delving even deeper into the Halo world. We are going to the very heart of the game itself. Just think about it. It’s not that it doesn’t feel Halo. It’s just the changes that are making us feel this way. The game fits the Halo theme perfectly, and I truly hope people will come to realize that it does when the game is released. I just wish for the old Halo community to come back. The one where everyone just loved to have fun competitively and casually. Reach rattled our cages a bit, but I hope Halo 4 will come to heal the wound that has damaged the Halo community so severely.

      • SurprizeForYou

        I can certainly understand where you’re coming from, especially with all the information gleaned from Glasslands leading into The Thursday War. But the change in how alien the humans now look was just too fast for me I think. I mean, yes, we have A LOT of new Forerunner tech that we’re (The UNSC, ONI in particular) playing around with. But I mean *Spoiler* the UNSC Infinity is made of almost every scrap of Forerunner tech that we have at our disposal and it still looks inherently UNSC/human. The recent armors just look almost TOO Forerunner for my taste, too fast. The Spartan-IV’s look like robots =//

      • RP Rarity

        That was the longest comment ever… of all time…

      • BronyHater

        343 is ruining halo, and are just going to milk the series. They are ruining the story behind halo. And; are making shit up in the story just because bungie wanted to keep it a secret from them. Get out you pony loving freak.

        • RP Rarity

          Prove it. Prove to me right now that 343 is ruining Halo. In my opinion, I love what they did with the series. Also, “Pony loving freak”? Stick to what matters.

  • Linxz6

    The Fotus armor reminds me of the RX-0 from Gundam Unicorn, which looks awesome!

  • http://www.facebook.com/seth.a.hansen Seth Allister Hansen

    I noticed it said limited edition console SKU. sigh i don’t have $400 for that armor. Frank O’Connor did say it wasn’t unreasonable to think all of the preorder content and extras would be available at a later date. I just hope that is true. the more diversity in halo armor the better. the game now fits a player’s personality.

    wait does this come with the 100 dollar edition?

    • http://www.facebook.com/seth.a.hansen Seth Allister Hansen

      no, just the console by the looks of it. Hope you have another $400 for the downloadable armor. LOL

    • Atlas

      yup

  • http://www.facebook.com/He4dshotM4ster1 Nikolas Mayo

    like if your gettin the LE. I is gettin it!!

    • http://www.facebook.com/seth.a.hansen Seth Allister Hansen

      right below the title it says “Limited edition Console SKU” sorry bud, this is for the $400 console

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Jeremy-Carrier/100001743102541 Jeremy Carrier

    Note that this is for the LIMITED EDITION CONSOLE, NOT THE 100 DOLLAR LIMITED EDITION GAME. The LE game has completely different armor/skins/avatars, etc

      thanks for the link. I never saw this! great heads up.

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002662445988 David Perez

    this is only for the limited edition CONSOLE not the regular limited edition

  • LimtonaddeThrow

    It looks like its all forunner stuff

  • TheHalofan26

    I really want that helmet, too bad it is only for the LE console.

    • Atlas

      not console, LE edition. Only $30 more and you get the future map packs too. So if you were getting those anyway it pays for itself.

      • TheHalofan26

        But it says limited edition console near the top of the pic.

  • Dejay218

    That looks very Forerunner. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s similar to the Didact’s armor.

  • Zangestu

    wow so LE game comes with a ugly armor and the LE console comes with badass armor wtf

    • Charlie price

      Where have you seen the image of the Limited edition armour out of interest?

      • Guest
        • Asylum1113

          Note that the armor SKIN for the LE is RECRUIT. Kinda sad really…

          • HALOFANBOY

            Not a “skin”. It’s an armor set, moron. It clearly states “in-game ARMOR”. You’re even dumber than that other faggot. And; everyone already knows this shit.

      • http://www.facebook.com/seth.a.hansen Seth Allister Hansen
    • Linxz6

      Well the LE console is four times the price and the Prime armor that comes with the LE game looks like stormtrooper armor

  • Like a boss

    Longest comment in earths galaxy history ever!!!! Poor Shane has read to many halo books :(

  • NoobsShallDie

    Is it just me, or does the helmet for that armor look like a mix between Hayabusa and the helmet of a Nazgul from the Lord of the Rings? I think it looks pretty bad ass.

    • BronyHater

      It looks like brony shit to me.

    • http://halo4nation.com/ spencer hodges

      WHO DOESNT, you can go into battle charge/stabbing people with the horn

      • BronyHater

        Get out, you pony loving freak of a brony

        • http://halo4nation.com/ spencer hodges

          lol, when did i say i was a brony? what i basically said is that the armor should give the user a special assasination, and i been here much longer than you have so im good.

    • BronyHater

      I know right? Brony freaks are the worste..

  • One Fast Racoon

    obviously the armor doesn’t look very combat practical but it’s badass nonetheless. personally a lot of the helmets from the specializations (waterworks, engineer, etc) look a little strange to me but we’ve only seen a portion of the helmets and im gonna be happy with whatever we get.

    • http://halo4nation.com/ spencer hodges

      thats the spirit man.

  • matt

    it does look a little on the badass side ,if you ask me

  • BlackWeylyn

    This looks sweet unfortunately only a limited edition for me and not the console cause i would use that armour non stop

  • Ivan

    who gives a rats ass about a dumb emblem and avator prop? this le is such a ripoff

  • http://www.facebook.com/michael.greggs.5 Michael Greggs

    sweet

  • http://halo4nation.com/ spencer hodges

    im fine with both, LE console armor and the LE edition armor, both look fine to me… dont rape me for my opinion.

    • Synnota

  • ben

  • aspirent

  • Raxs Slayer

    • http://www.facebook.com/jason.estrada.73 Jason Estrada

      too bad the limited edition game’s armor isn’t cool like this one.

  • kaka1216

    the skin is realy cool

  • chris

    why do they love unicorn

    • BronyHater

      Because they are brony freaks.

  • Bronyhater

    Eww… Brony armor. Get this unicorn shit out of halo, 343. You lame ass bronies. Seriously, this disgusts me. This does not have any sort of halo feel. They have ruined Halo. They’ll milk this series for all it is. Ruining the true story of halo. All you nerds can come on and nerd rage on me too. Lol. I don’t care.

    • RP Rarity

      Well, I’m glad you won’t be on Halo 4 then.

  • adam

    could we unlock the fotus armour in game? or do we have to pre order the limited edition console ?

  • adam

    could we unlock the fotus armour in game ? or do we have to pre order the limited edition console to get it

  • ben

    Only the kids that play halo would like this sort of armour. Like ages 6-15. Anyone above the ages would hate that spike on the head this aint pokimon

  • a Wierd Walrus

          • blood viper RE5

            Lol, I was told over Xbox by that RP Rarity that there was a poser of me on this website. I can’t believe it. : ) It’s cool and all that you are a fan of mine, but posing as me and spamming the website with your all caps rage is making me look like a raging 7 year old. Grow up and be yourself, not me.

    • Squatchmen

      Whoa chill…

  • JMANx14

    i want that armor…

  • Blasphxmy

    Wait but doesn’t the limit edition come with maps? Does the console come with maps too I need to know because this may sway my decision on what to buy.

  • http://www.facebook.com/scott.brandeburg.3 Scott Brandeburg

    Looks Like Hayabusa mixed with that Fake Assassin Armor from Halo 3

  • Squatchmen

    I would MUCH rather prefer my “Recruit” armor over this piece of sh*t any day!

  • Squatchmen

    Even though I’m trash talking this armor, I might get it down the road when it becomes available

  • Brick

    I think I read somewhere that FOTUS stands for Fist Of The Unicorn Spartan.
    Not sure that is correct though.

  • bobbybobjoe

    BTW i think you should all know that the fotus armor is not a set of armor but in fact an armor skin. a while ago an interview was held with 343 about the meaning of the word FOTUS and they stated: that FOTUS is an acronim that stands for “fist of the unicorn SKIN” so IMO its a skin for the fotus based off of unicorns and fists and stuff xD but it does sound like it will be available for everyone along with the recruit armor especially considering 343s statement: “we will lock no armor away but will give out exclusive skins that may be available for everyone on the xbox live market place later on.”

    • BronyHater

      THAT’S A LIE MORON! THIS ISNT A SKIN! ITS SHITTY BRONY ARMOR SET! 343 NEVER SAID IT WAS A SKIN! THEY ANNOUNCED IT AS ARMOR! YOU DUMB NO LIFE NERDY FAGGOT! ITS A GAY BRONY ARMOR SET! NOT SKIN! AND IMO MEANS IN MY OPINION! YOU MISSED USED IT! SO QUIT WITH THE GAY LIES! YOU ARE GAYER THAN THIS BRONY SHIT! THERE WAS NO INTERVIEW WITH 343 ABOUT THIS SHIT! NOR DID THEY EVER SO MOST OF THAT! FUCKING STUPID FAG! GO OUTSIDE FATTY!

      • bobbybobjoe

        i didnt misuse IMO dumbass and want the link? cuz i can give it to you because a pretty small time halo 4 informer had his own interview with 343 and that is what they said i have the link the official info etc all that you could want to HMU if you want to be proven wrong fucker

      • bobbybobjoe

        If you’re a person who is pre-ordering the new Halo 4 console, you should know by now that you’ll get a very special armor skin called the “FOTUS” armor skin. So what does that mean?
        I had guessed the meaning of what “FOTUS” meant. Now I have had that guess confirmed as correct. I can’t site the specific source, but can say it was from a 343 employee.
        The correct meaning is: Fist of the Unicorn Skin
        The “Fist of the Unicorn” part is the name of the band of the Pillar of Autumn. You can see a poster for them in the very first level of Halo CE/Anniversary. “Skin” obviously because it’s an armor skin.
        So there you have it, folks!
        -HFFL” theres the article now fuck yourself

    • HALOFANBOY

      Are you really that stupid? It clearly says “armor” Not “skin”. You’re lying kid.343 never said any of that Bullshit. They didn’t even say it’d be released later. They never said they’d never lock armor away. The recruit ARMOR can only be obtained with the LE and the FOTUS ARMOR can only be obtained with the console. It’s not a skin. That is not a statement made by 343. And; never in an interview did that claim it was fist of the unicorn skin. I swear, people get dumber every fucking day. They never “stated” a single thing you claimed they had stated. So, get a life faggot. I agree with BronyHater. You probably are a fatass. :/

      • bobbybobjoe

        ok then why did 343 EXPLICITLY say “we will lock away no armor” and its MY OPINION fuck tard so gtfo and play with your moms dick or something. if you want i can give you the link?

        • BronyHater

          YOU’RE STILL LYING FAG! NONE OF THAT IS BY 343 IT HAS BEEN ONFIRMED AS AN ARMOR SET BITCH GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND YOU KNOW

      • bobbybobjoe

        http://halofanforlife.com/ heres the link look until you find the article named “fotus armor acronym armor meaning” and heres a direct quote from the article maker: ”

    • NobleTeam:Jun

      Halo 4 PAX prime build confirms that “RECRUIT” and “FOTUS” are armor types. Not skins. So, these two were right. You can only get the FOTUS armor with the console. It is NOT a skin. It is confirmed as locked away armor. 343 said they MIGHT release the recruit and FOTUS armor as DLC later on for those that did not get the the condole or LE of the game. Okay? Seriously, you’re so ignorant. I think you’re possibly a brony, and you deserve the hate they gave you. :/ You’re clearly very childish and ignorant.

      • bobbybobjoe

        hey, fuck you 10 year old.

        • HaloTrolololo

          Aww. Is the little moron butthurt because someone proved him wrong?? Poor you. Go cry more bitch. You’re probably the 10 year old.

  • Max117

    Sadly i will just buy the LE game

  • Andrew

    SUCK IT NERDS!! IM GETTING THE CONSOLE!……mainly because im lazy and didnt get the xbox slim so i still have the MW2 xbox!

  • fate

    Well I’ve preordered the limited edition xbox the limited edition of the game and the $300 Tritton warheads and the limited edition controller from Gamestop and I also got the vanguard edition from Amazon (which looks AMAZING) so I think im pretty much prepared lol. But I was just wondering if you guys thought that the horn on the helmet would be vulnerable to damage because I think the helmet slash armor looks awesome and I’m planning on using it alot but I don’t want to be playing swat and being the one who loses every battle because the other people have a better chance of killing me first since I have this big old thing on my head lol. So what do you guys think?

  • Netgear45

    Nice! I am getting the LE console and I am so exited! ‘Cause my favorite armor is Fotus, so YEAH!
