This is a Reach account that I created the day they announced his name in a bnet weekly update. Any stats regarding ODST or Halo 3 are irrelevant. Also, Halo CE master race. Halo 1 > other halo games > other games.
Account Status: Silver :(
There's still compelling evidence why this isn't real. Let us just hope.

Reasons for me to believe this is a very well-executed troll:
1. The game informer article on Halo 4 is supposed to be a 14 page article, yet all the "updates" that the OP stated were all covered in a 1-2 page area. If this were real we'd only see a few of the updates on one of the pages, instead of all of them in one area.
2. The article has plenty of typos, something no magazine editors would allow.
3. Why would there be a gigantic picture of an elite if they weren't gonna be in MP?
4. "Spartan ops" is way too obvious. Any self-respecting game developers would do their best to make it seem as if it was their own idea, and Spartan ops is just saying "hey, this is special ops but halo". Even when Halo got its own horde mode, bungie did their best to call it firefight and assure the crowd that it was their own creation. Credits and COD points are essentially the same thing, but with different titles. "Forerunner vision" is also a bit odd. The first thing I thought when reading that was "eagle vision".
What I think they might have done was that they got the game informer early, and instead of posting the real info, they kept the pics to make it look legit and changed the text. That would explain the first blurred picture on his lap, then one censored scan, then the full page, as the OP progressively added his own text.
If this is a troll, then I congratulate the OP. You have managed to make the entire halo fanbase rage and caused a good amount of them to cry in misery, and you may have just cost 343i a bit of money. If I were in your position I'd be laughing my ass off right now.
If this isn't a troll and all this is in the final product...what the -blam!- 343i? What the -blam!-?
EDIT: Well, no I guess 343i just hates the halo community
