The long wait following the release of Spartan Ops Episode 5 has officially finished.  Spartan Ops Episode 6 has been released for free to all Halo 4 owners with Xbox Live Gold Subscriptions, and Halo Waypoint promises that with the release of Episode 6, the series will return to weekly releases leading up to Episode 10.  Want to know what’s going on this week?  Take a look at this.

Spartan Ops is an episodic cooperative campaign following the events of Halo 4’s single-player story.  A new episode is released each week for free and is composed of one computer generated video that sets the stage for the episode’s story, and several missions that can be tackled alone or cooperatively with friends online.  All of these episodes will lead up to the release of Halo 5.

For those of you who haven’t played the previous episodes in a while, here’s a quick recap on what has currently happened in the Spartan Ops story.

Halo 4 is out now exclusive to the Xbox 360.

For those of you who didn’t get a chance to check out the God of War: Ascension multiplayer beta but are looking forward to finally playing multiplayer in a God of War game when it is released in March, we have you covered.  Today, gamexcess.net will be releasing some footage from the God of War: Ascension beta.

First off, we’re going to show you the first thing a player sees when they fire up the multiplayer beta for the first time, and probably what will be the first thing a multiplayer player will see in the final version of the game, the training level.  If you just simply look at the title of the video you may confuse it for a simple multiplayer training level, but, as you’ll be able to see in this footage, Sony Santa Monica did something special with its presentation.
