The 'Halo Atlas application will arrive tomorrow on Windows Phone


Do you remember the Halo ATLAS? The application which will be able to combine the functions of Windows Phone on the popular Halo: Reach playing on the Xbox 360, well, will be available Saturday, December 10, 2011, barring any delays.The thing that leaves a bad taste in the mouth is that the application will also be available for users of iPhone OS and Android, but at a cost of $ 4.99 for users and WP7 will be completely free of charge. We are always the idea that these Plaffo applications must remain proprietary because they could appeal to a certain OS, enticing the frequent users of the Xbox 360 to prefer the purchase of a Windows Phone smartphone rather than another.


Returning to the theme, Halo Atlas allows users to stay updated in real time on everything that is happening, for example, in a frantic game of "King of the Hill" in Halo Reach, giving information such as:


- Location of the spawn weapons.
- Position of power packs.Spawn of the vehicles.
- Your position and that of your team.
- Function "Follow Me" with which we can track our movement
