While at Comic-con in San Diego earlier this year, 343 Industries revealed that terminals will be returning for Halo 4. They have just released the first terminal for the game and it acts as a prologue of the Covenant’s role in the game.

Titled “Jul ‘Mdama,” you get to hear about why the Covenant is heading towards the mysterious planet Requiem. The greatest part about the terminal is probably the fact that they reveal that there are still some Forerunners left in the universe. Also, unlike the terminals in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, the Sanghelli actually speak in their natural language and that adds more depth to the terminals.

You will be able to watch this terminal and all the other ones when Halo 4 launches exclusively on the Xbox 360 on November 6, 2012.

Of course if you live in Europe, you have a couple of days still to wait which is such a shame.

Many of you may not have heard about Sword of Rapier before thanks to the fact that it was simply a Windows Phone 7 and Xbox Live Indie Game from Japanese studio vDog. However that is all about to change thanks to the fact that the developer of the game has come out on Twitter and said that he is working on bringing Sword of Rapier to the PlayStation Vita.

In response to a fan on Twitter he stated “I’m making SofR for Vita now. Don’t Miss It!” Currently the only gameplay footage is from the already released Windows Phone 7 version, which can be seen below. As for the game itself, the story follows a young woman named Katharine who has lost her memory and is being chased by soldiers. While the game does appear a bit basic from the trailer, it is worth noting that the Vita version may look better and it is always good to see another digital Vita game in development.

Looking for a new app that has the right mix of cute and colourful? Well you’re in luck because indie developer Alex Vlaskin has released Bebee the bee, a free game where kids (or adults) can help Bebee collect nectar and pollen from 8 different kinds of colorful flowers. You explore the map, avoiding obstacles, pollinating flowers, dealing with deadly wasps by either fight or flight, and reaching a quota for nectar and pollen.

There are 14 challenging levels to fly through (including bonus and special levels), five different types of enemies, eight different flowers, and five animations celebrating your wins.

You can either use gesture controls, or if that’s too new tech for you, then you can use a button system. Bebee is aimed at an audience of younger kids (but don’t let that stop you), and was quite popular with kids at the EB Expo 2012. So if you’re looking for something to keep the kids quiet during a road trip or waiting room, then you should definitely look at getting this app.

Check out the trailer for the game below!

343 Industries ‘Not Ready to Show Chief’s Face Yet’

It has been revealed that 343 Industries will not show the face of the helmeted hero Master Chief.  Frank O’ Connor revealed this earlier in an interview in which he said the following:

“The funny thing about the Chief is he’s actually really well described. If you went down into that line and found a nerd with a deep canon Halo t-shirt and said describe the Master Chief to this police sketch artist, that police sketch artist would then produce a perfectly accurate rendering of an older man, almost painfully pale, almost albino white, with pale blue eyes, reddish hair, close cropped to a skin head, and maybe the last remnants of freckles he had when he was a kid.”

Frank described the whole thing as wanting to keep the mystery alive and that he doesn’t want the fans to loose that sense of mystery that it gives the fans.  He then went on to say:

“That’s a device to keep the player invested in the character and keep the player from constantly being reminded that they’re not a hero or that they have to be a boy or they have to be a girl, or whatever that is.”

You can pick up Halo 4 when it releases exclusively on the Xbox 360 on November 6, 2012.
