|E3 2012| Blurry Halo 4 Gameplay

Below, you can see some blurry multiplayer footage of Halo 4 on the map Wraparound. It could be better, but it's not the most terrible quality I've ever seen. Anyway, it shows off some new guns as well as instant respawn. Check out that crazy grenade launching pistol thing at the end! (Video window kept small for quality reasons)

Installed Base 02: The Xbox Sucks

This week on the show, I sat down with my old pal Battsman to play some video games and hilarity ensued. We've also got The Korra Korner, releases of the week, and a message to Toonami fans everywhere. Plus, some awesome music from Richie Branson.

Toonami is back, but it still needs your help


Yes, Toonami returns to the airwaves this Saturday night with an all-new lineup. But that doesn't mean you can just sit back and feel satisfied with yourself just yet. See, the budget for Toonami is very, very small. The April Fools' airing was meant as a one-time thing, but fan feedback and support was so overwhelmingly positive that the network decided to bring it back only nine weeks later. But now we have to prove that we meant it. Jason DeMarco, producer of Toonami for all 11 years of its previous run, is back behind the wheel and imploring fans to follow through. If they have the ratings, they'll get a bigger budget and this will literally build a better cartoon show, so to speak. So, what's in store for the star of this so called "experiment"?
