*''' | *'''Neill Harrison''': "There's supposed to be this guy in a supersuit and he should feel like a superhero in it and in order to do that we wanted the armor to look and feel functional." | ||

*'''[[Brad Welch]]''': "It's kind of like a body jet HUD, if you think of it that way." | |||

*'''Neill Harrison''': "All weapons, vehicles, and enemies have all been updated graphically." | |||
*'''Josh Holmes''': "A lot of that is just in service of the experience we're trying to create. We want you to feel like you can step right out into that world." | |||

*'''Frank O'Connor''': "We wanted to do so much more." | |||
*'''Josh Holmes''': "We have this massive team of people, who have all come together at this one point in time that focuses on everyday that we have left, doing everything we can to make this game the best it can possibly be." | |||
*'''Kiki Wolfkill''': "It's still ''Halo'', but it has it's own voice and it's extraordinary." | |||
