      Huh. That uh... Huh.

      And just in case you thought I was somehow making this up. That's for the New Zealand app store. It will presumably arrive in the US app store soon.

      Oh, and here's a gameplay video!


      Only one thing left to do now

        Sorry for constantly replying to news posts (I'll try harder to tone it down after this)... Anyways, I don't think we're supposed to be surprised that Microsoft is maintaining their business relationships and expanding on an already existing marketing campaign. If anything, I'm confused as to why Burger King isn't promoting Halo 4 which implies their contract didn't get renewed pre-launch. I guess gamers want Game Fuel, Slurpees, and (simulated) nachos instead of french fries. That and I thought everybody already knew about this since Mr. Keighley's objectionable interview.

        On a side note, I'd like to mention Metal Gear Solid 4 had more subliminal advertising than Halo 3 and 4 combined, but I don't think it bothered the majority of the people who played it.
