At the launch of the Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer beta, two maps were available to play on a single game type, Slayer.  Earlier today, we took a look at one the beta’s launch maps, Truth.  Now we’re going to take a look at the beta’s other map, Empire, and see what it’s like.

Joined by his cousin Vinny and diskreader117, Maniac tackles a game of Slayer on the map Empire.  This one is a real nail biter.  Just remember, 343 Industries has announced that they have added a few more maps and an entirely new gametype to the beta yesterday, so if you’re in the beta and haven’t played it recently, some new content will be ready to play for you.

Halo 5: Guardians is coming in 2015 exclusively on the Xbox One.

Happy New Year!  Just before New Year’s Eve, we promised you guys a special surprise, and here it is, direct feed footage from the Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta Test.  Halo 5: Guardians may be about a year away from launch, but we got early access to some of the game’s multiplayer levels, and we are really excited to show them to you.  Joined here by his cousin Vinny (no joke, Maniac actually has a cousin named Vinny), Maniac tackles the Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer level Truth in a game of Slayer.

Just before the game starts, we take a quick look at some of the new armor permutations offered in the Beta, including some special armor that you can only get by earning it in Halo: The Master Chief Collection.  If you enjoy the footage, just post a comment, and we will be happy to post more.

Halo 5: Guardians is coming exclusively to the Xbox One in 2015.

I promised you guys a video review after Christmas and here it is, a review of the Cortana Data Chip Keychain. Since replaying Halo: The Master Chief Collection this November, I have occasionally referred to my girlfriend as my Cortana.  Because of that, she got me this replica as a gift.  Cortana’s Data chip is an item you may have seen in Halo 3, Halo 4, or the Halo 5: Guardians announcement trailer.

Is it worth an order?  Lets break it open and see how it looks!

More exclusive content is on its way this week, including a look at the Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer beta.  Coming up next, since it is so popular among my subscribers, a brand new Christmas themed Maniac’s haul is up next
