The Castle Map Pack might just be the best map pack released for Halo 4. The maps, released today, April 8th, retail for 800, or are included free with the wargames map pass. Consisting of three maps, Perdition, Outcast & Daybreak, the Castle Map Pack is certain to add hours of fun, and balanced experiences to Halo 4. To give the coverage that the maps deserve, RUL has taken a bit of an unusual approach. Drax, Chewy & Minolta have worked together to make a masterful review of the map pack. Each one of them reviewed a single map and explained the many intricacies of it. Starting off, we have Drax, with his review of the map Perdition. ...

Today, 343 released a short ViDoc about one of the upcoming Castle Map Pack maps, Daybreak. This short video will give your a feel for the map's visual and play styles. It's looking pretty awesome, and, at least to me, feels a bit reminiscent of Reach's atmosphere. Expect "Welcome to Perdition" tomorrow, and "Welcome to Outcast" on Saturday. A Castle Map Pack livestream takes place Sunday, and the maps release to everyone on Monday, 4/8/2013 for 800 MSP, or free if you own the War Games Map Pass.

A demo for the upcoming fighter Injustice: Gods Among Us is out for download today on Xbox Live and the Playstation Network. The demo features Batman, Wonder Woman and Lex Luthor as playable characters, though the final roster will include quite a few more heroes and villains from the DC Comics roster, and is set in the Gotham City arena as a fighting space. This early taste of the game will give players a chance to get their hands dirty with the special abilities of these few characters, and I'm sure breaking things left and right in the multiple tiers of the arena will be plenty of fun.

Injustice: Gods Among Us, which is being made by NetherRealm Studios will be released April 19, 2013 for Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and Wii U. ...

343 released the names and descriptions of the upcoming Castle Map Pack's achievements. There will be nine achievements for a total of 250 Gamerscore. Much like prior Map Pack achievements, they seem to put a little focus on lesser-used aspects of Halo's multiplayer arsenal, such as the Hardlight Shield and Regeneration Field. It's a pretty standard fare all around, though, giving players some interesting personal objectives to try and obtain. The original post can be found here.




Castle Map Pack is still set for an April 8, 2013 release and will give access to the three new maps, two new playlists, and nine achievements. It will cost $10 USD or 800, unless you own the Halo 4 War Games Map Pass in which case it is FREE (make sure to download from the in-Game DLC menu, NOT from ...
