"Halo 4: I Get a Woman!" - Sgt. Mjr. A.J. Johnson, RIP

[Arteen]

I'm honestly okay with the art style if you don't go comparing it to other art styles. It does a have a good bit of Crysis and Metroid Prime influence in them, but many of the artists working for 343i are from those franchises. All I know is that 343i has a very high diversity in artists in terms of where they came from.

"High diversity" isn't that great when all of the designs look like they come from different games.

The assault rifle looks just like it always has:


But the battle rifle looks like it was designed with a different mentality:


And armor designs that looks Halo-ish (MC's armor looks great, IMO):


To what the hell is this:

That assault rifle looks so out-of-place in that first image. It's not over-designed and anime enough to match that spiky unicorn hat.
