Microsoft is shutting down Xbox Entertainment Studios. Over 18,000 jobs will be eliminated in the next 12 months, which sucks, and is scary for Halo Nightfall, our Halo series coming this November. Well at least you may think, Halo Nightfall will be okay, and will survive this big change in Microsoft. So in other words, nothing has changed with Halo. In Forza 5, Forza Wizard crafted a McLoren P1 featuring Halo 5 Guadians art.
