I've noticed that in some trailers (Mantis trailer for example) there seemed to be a focus effect on certain clips. The background seemed blurry as opposed to the foreground. Could this be a game feature, or just a developer trick?

Aside from the flood-assassination, am I the only one who thinks that it would be nice to have a medal for meleeing a zombie to death? In Reach, I've found that to be pretty hard, but I have succeeded in at least one game with the human melee as my tool of destruction. Anyway, just thought to bring that up, keep on fraggin' trucks.

Hey Podtacular, Halo 4 is shaping up to be one of the best Halos in my opinion but I don't really like most of the armor sets in Halo 4, so I was wondering if it's possible to include new armor sets in the future map packs.

What's up guys! So as I recall, I believe that in the book the flood, I remember reading about chief coming out of cryo, and the book was talking about how normally people go into cryo naked, and that chief would have "freezer burns" because he had his suit on. It's funny how it's in tge books like that, but in the games, and videos, everyone has clothes, and the issue of freezer burn isn't addressed. Oh, except for in forward unto dawn. It's definitely there.

PS I finally beat dusty in Speed. I said I would do it and I have. I don't care how lagged the game was. It was lagged for everyone so it's fair. And I didn't "cheat" this time either. -Doody Bound

Have you guys considered offering your Podtacular pod cast on sound cloud. I heard listeners can make comments throughout the podcast at specific points in the audio recording.

What's up Podtac people? NOOBestfriend here! And I've noticed something.

Laskey and The Chief have a lot in common and i was wondering if you noticed.

Both of them were kind of just dropped into a conflict they had no decisions if they wanted in or not. John kind of just accepted his role but Laskey pushes back against it. And if I'm not mistaken, they are around the same age. Maybe they can see themselves in each other. Seeing what they could have been if things were different.

Just a thought.
Keep it clean.
