In the meantime, the ‘net is full of videos and information, for those not concerned with spoilers. Check out several videos below, Wargames followed by a Campaign sneak peek, shared by Vincent Torre over at Casually Competitive Customs on FaceBook, a closed group primarily consisting of talented Halo Forgers.
