How It's Done: Come talk to Halo 5 series director Frank O'Connor

No more waiting: Halo has finally come to Xbox One. No more of that HD remaster business. Halo 5: Guardians is the console's first full sequel to the storied franchise and there are no sacred cows when it comes to the series' past. We've got a new protagonist, redesigned weapons, and a whole mess of other changes. Walking us through those changes today on How It's Done is none other than Frank O'Connor, the franchise development director on the Halo series since Reach. If you have burning questions about Halo, join us live starting at 4:30PM ET/1:30PM PT.
