That's-a big one!
A side note in the day-one patch story is of interest to UK gamers: According to Halo Waypoint, the release date in the UK has been moved forward - the original November 14 is now November 11, same as in the US. Nice! (Thanks, Moorpheusl9.) Not so nice - Spartan Ops is being delayed for EVERYONE - until December. (Louis Wu 15:48:39 UTC)

Definitely some Bungie fans at Rockstar.
Cody Miller watched the GTA V gameplay teaser released recently... and was reminded of some SERIOUSLY old-school Bungie baddies. (RotaJota added his two cents, too.) If you don't feel like watching the video, here are screengrabs of the two moments in question (Cody | RotaJota). Nice!
