Totally awesome!

I have nothing to add except that I'm so pumped for this game.

So now that H4 is confirmed GOAT, anyone else as optimistic as me?

I have minimal optimism. I don't view 343's canon as the same canon in Halo 1-3 or any of the books pre-GoO. The bricks laid in that canon are not being remembered here in Halo 4, or in Cryptum, etc.

I have no doubt the game will be good when not directly correlated to events prior.

What would there be to remember in Halo: Cryptum? It's a new insight into the Forerunners, revealing plenty of juicy details that we didn't know before. What would be the point of going over old news anyway?

However, if you want to place some links between the two trilogies then here's a few similarities:

1. Halos
2. Arks
3. Shield Worlds
4. Forerunners designed to stop the Flood -- Though nothing like this exists in the original trilogy, the Sentinels proved useful against the Flood as they're non-organic and non-sentient.
5. The Didact -- he's mentioned in the terminals in Halo 3.

Remember, the original trilogy primarily dealt with the human-Covenant war. And its conclusion.

The forerunner novels connect to "The Flood", GoO,IRIS, and the terminals which were all bungie canon. IT is the best reinforcement and canon web to date.
