With the Covenant out of the picture for Halo 4, a new enemy is coming, and thanks to the quick work of a forum poster at NeoGAF, fans now have the cover of the next chapter in the saga of Master Chief and Cortana.

Xbox Live members received an email from Microsoft offering "a piece of the Halo 4 puzzle." NeoGAF member spawn031 took the 32 pieces and assembled them into the expected box art for the first game for 343 Industries. The image offers another hint as to what the Spartan team may be up against when the game is released on Nov. 6.

McFarlane Toys let slip two new figures coming in its Halo series, the Watcher and Crawler. Could it be the Flood has returned? It is an "ancient evil" promised in the story line. We'll probably know more after we see the game at E3.

      Halo Aniversary terminals hinted at the greatest rival of the forerunners who knew how to cure the flood but the forerunners were deprived of that knowledge after the defeat of said enemy. There was also something behind the covenant, some blue dimond thingy that kept babbling about being a servant and intended to be free by releasing the flood... or that coud be unrelated I can't remember the specifics but just youtube the halo aniversary terminals.
