Anyone notice the striking similarities between Halo 4’s art style, enemy design, even the HUD and new weapons, and Metroid: Prime?
If you don’t know what Prime is, look up a video of the beginning hour or so for the first one.
Yeah…it’s great. Now if only they could throw some Republic Commando in the mix.

That would be awesome man.
Cool.

Plus, they would have the added advantage of not totally sucking.
Well they DO have a few people at 343 who were originally members of Retro Studios if I do recall correctly.
At any rate anything that reminds me of Metroid Prime is more than fine by me.

Same. Those Space Pir-I mean Promethean are quite snazzy looking.
LEPRECHAUNS!
You do know the cool thing is, is that they have the same level designers from the Metroid Prime series working on the Halo 4 campaign levels.
I don’t see anything wrong with Metroid in Halo. I need to remind you how awesome Metroid Prime is don’t I? I hope not.
Just kidding, i know this isn’t a complaint theard. 
It’s no coincidence though; i believe some guys from Retro Studios who worked on Prime are help shaping Halo 4.
Talon IV overworld > Life

This pretty much sums up what I was going to say. I would die for them to bring the prime series into xbox (sadly impossible) but a halo game with metroidish things, That’s just awesome.
I don’t see how similarities to Metroid Prime is a bad thing OP.
I think the lead level designer and the project head from Retro are over at 343.
So that is not a bad thing by any means.
Not sure but
Not Really
Still looks like Halo
I would love it if I could re-create her armor. With the new green visor, I’m just one step closer.
Ummm. No. Halo 4 looks nothing like that garbage.

I wish they would make a sequel
