New Halo 4 Ad

In this new ad for the newest version of the Halo video game series, we see our stalwart heroes fighting some new enemy, and the ad says: “An ancient evil awakens!” And if there’s one thing we know about ancient evil, like everyone, they’re cranky when they get woken up! So I’d venture to guess the best way to defeat this new threat is to shoot coffee into their mouths with a Super Soaker Hydro Cannon. And once they’ve had their coffee, they’ll probably be our friends, especially with how expensive coffee is these days, seeing as how they’re getting it for free.

I hope I haven’t ruined the game for anyone here. I’m guessing this is the kind of thing players will find in Easter Eggs or on cheat sheet stuff from G4, but you never know. Maybe they really are evil after all, in which case, they won’t appreciate the coffee, and we’ll have to kill them. And then the news reports inside the Halo 4 universe will accuse players of being murderers, and that negotiations are the only way to settle things, etc.
