Major Nelson

Xbox Live Director of Programming Larry Hyrb, known to many as Major Nelson, has posted a countdown to E3 on his blog, posted only with the words “And it’s on…” Following a quiet E3 2012 for Microsoft, it looks as though Hyrb’s tease points to something bigger.

Microsoft and 343 Industries announced this morning in a press release that Halo 4 will officially release worldwide on November 6.

The new Alan Wake game has been confirmed through a tweet from Major Nelson.
