THE BUZZ: A Finnish magazine is claiming that Halo 4 will be officially unveiled at a Microsoft event this month.

The magazine states that the game will be revealed at an Xbox Spring Showcase event on February 29.

EGM’s TAKE: 343 Industries and Microsoft have been fairly quiet regarding Halo 4, apart from a few story teasers, since it’s reveal at E3 last year. Many are expecting the real information to start pouring in at E3, with hopes of a release towards the end of the year. Could it be that Microsoft is looking to start the ball rolling early and steal some thunder from the competition leading into the event? Of course this is just a rumor at the moment and is the first we’ve heard of it. The oddest thing about the rumor is the event in question. Why choose such a low key event for one of its biggest franchises? We’ll find out just how reliable this information is in just a few weeks.

What are your thoughts on the rumor? Let us know below.
