Anyone looking forward to the return of Master Chief (that's "Chief" for those wondering what George Calombaris was doing on a games page) won't have to wait until Halo 4's release this November. In the month building up to the game, Microsoft will be bringing us the web series Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn, five 15-minute episodes that will premiere exclusively on the Machinima and Halo Waypoint websites.
Apparently, the story will follow Mr Chief as he inspires a novice UNSC soldier to work his way up to command the UNSC Infinity spacecraft. Should Forward Unto Dawn prove a hit, it could well reignite the move to bring Halo to cinema screens, a plan that was originally on the cards with Peter Jackson and Neil Blomkamp, until they decided to make District 9 instead.
