Halo 4 will not have a beta?!

The Gaming news for the week:

• George Washington gets a makeover and a Pepper gun in BioShock Infinite. Don't believe me, check out the video below:
  
  
  
• Assassins Creed 3 is the perfect place for new players of the series to start. Developers say that if you haven't played the previous 4 games you are going to miss anything since the game is about a new assassin. I am happy to hear that since I  don't know if I will be able to catch up on the series before the new one is released this October.
  
  
• Madden NFL 13 is starting their cover athlete vote. It is going to be the largest one yet. They are letting players vote for a Offensive and a Defensive players from each team. That adds up to 64 people to vote on. Below is the plays of each team that can be voted on:
  
  Who do you think will win the Honor to be on the cover of the game and take on the famed Madden curse?
  
  
• For those of you who are waiting for a beta for Halo 4, you better stop waiting.  Halo Franchise Development Director Frank O’Connor says that they are not wasting anytime working  on a beta. They want the game to be the best it possibly can be so they are spending the time it would take them to make a beta and just using that time to make the game better. He also says that you can make your own custom armor,  The Covenant will return(but they are the least of your problems), and they have not decided on a specific release date yet.
  
  
• Rovio Mobile is getting smart with their advertisement of Angry Birds Space. Check out their latest NASA announcement below:
  
  They are also talking about releasing the game on the recently popular PlayStation Vita.
• If you have wanted to try Star Wars: The Old Republic without paying for it, you are in luck. BioWare is going to be having a free trail weekend this weekend. The  Weekend Pass Free Trial starts this Thursday, March 15 at 12:01 AM CT and runs until  Monday, March 19 at 2:00 AM CT.

The gaming news for today:

• To the people that say PC gaming is dying or dead, you can go chock yourself with a wireless controller! PC gaming is still alive and kicking. This past week Steam, the PC digital distribution platform of games, just passed a huge mark. They had over 5 Million people logged into Steam and playing a game. I bet you can guess what game it was. Yep, Skyrim!
• Well Factor 5 was working on a Man of Steel version of Batman: Arkham Asylum/Arkham City, but it was cancelled before anything could happen. They have released what some of the characters would look like. To me it would have been a decent game if it was any way like a superman version of Batman: Arkham City. I'll post a picture of what Superman would have look like at the bottom of the page.
• If you are not watching CES, you should be. Sony announced a new portable platform called The  PlayStation Vita and man does it seem cool for a portable platform. Thats all i'm going to say now, but Friday will be my CES overview. I will be talking about everything I love seeing.
• Activision has plans to release another Call of Duty game this year. From the domains they have registered many believe it to be Black Ops 2. Then again, they do own the domains for Black Ops 2 through 6. I don't think a dying series like Call of Duty can last that long. Just saying!

QOTD: Do you think they should make a Superman game like the most recent Batman games? Would it be as good?
