I'm jealous.

 

[thatbox]

Does the half-clip AR feel like it empties to soon, or is it solid?

 

[Blimblim]

Lighting = great
particles = great
textures = great
geometry = not so great
gameplay = Halo

 

[jet1911]

Can't wait for your videos Blim.

 

[MaX_PL]

Thank you Bungie...

woooooah, can you confirm that Y brings up a bungie custom friends list, and not the guide button friends list?

please be so, pleassssssse. i hate the slow guide button.

 

[michaeld]

Can you image getting the rings of death when you go to download this? And you send your 360 off and get it back the day after the beta:lol

 

[bud]

jesus i'm feeling the hype. i'll be tracking down an old xbox and halo1,2 this summer but i'm already hyped for this one. i know this is the mp and all, but i'm more of an sp guy when it comes to games like this.

and please, if you're going to post pics, post good quality pics plz......voltron (!)

WHERE IS DCHARLIE

 

[Eric WK]

I have the worst ****ing luck of anybody I possibly know. I would almost guarantee something will screw up Wednesday when I try to download the Beta.

I'm concerned too. I hope this Crackdown thing goes off without a hitch.

 

[SonOfABeep]

lucky bastages. can't wait to hear impressions/see screens.

It's just my luck that I return home without broadband the very week of the beta.

[Haklong]

Thank you so much Stinkles! Cool stuff like this doesn't happen to me.

Now you're even more my hero (if that's even possible!).

*downloading Halo 3 beta*

Congrats dude. I can't wait till Wednesday.

[rocksolidaudio]

Well I hope Gears enjoyed its time in the spotlight.

too true.

 

[MaX_PL]

does anyone with the Beta live near Poughkeepsie NY? I'll pay 50 bucks to come to your house. seriously...

 

[op_ivy]

I hope we get honest impressions that are not oozed over with fanboyism and people going gaga just because it's halo. if there are real concerns I hope we hear them.

i'm telling you right now, i am going to be going gaga over everything. ignore my future posts, if you havent been already

 

[Blimblim]

Now.....HD movies please.

HD screens coming in 15 minutes or so. Videos a bit later.

:lol of course. or am I ?????????




Ok so someone tell me, should i go buy a 360 tonight? This and forza 2 will keep me busy for a LONG time.

 

[thatbox]

HD capture hardware is expensive, dudes. Give 'em a break.

 

[Ace 8095]

WTF, did people suddenly forget how to take decent screens!?

We need tapout and his god like off screen picture taking skills.

 

[Shake Appeal]

I like how -- sharp poking double blades of death aside -- the spikers look like they're based upon old-timey Western six shooters.

Helen Keller could sketch a better picture

 

[GhaleonEB]

I destryed three guys with the new shotty - boy were they surprised.

You lucky S.O.B. First Shadowrun now this.

Noticed any lag so far, or is it buttery smooth?

 

[StUnNeR H2K]

What is this friends and family thing you all are talkin about?

Close Friends & Family at Bungie. It also included some randomly picked Bungie.net users that met certain criteria...

 

[JdFoX187]

You lucky S.O.B. First Shadowrun now this.

Some people have all the luck. Some have none.

I'm still curious if the Spiker shoots spikes like the Harpoon gun in Crackdown or if it's lasers like I've seen in the past gameplay vids.

 

[TDG]

Is the new needler dual weildable?

Nope.

 

[Eric WK]

Is the new needler dual weildable?

No, sir.

 

[pooteeweet]

Close Friends & Family at Bungie. It also included some randomly picked Bungie.net users that met certain criteria...

Smiling like a donut and bobbing like a chicken.

 

[DopeyFish]

Yeah, I figured out that being named DopeyFish is instant disqualification

 

[Gowans]

Weird, I thought Bungie was always fantastic with their game geometry. OH NO. FAIL?

 

[JdFoX187]

Fox is too. Guess they have something against animals?

Call the Humane Society!

 

[Nick]

Code for, "I'm bitter for not getting in. Please spite them for me, Jesus."

 

[JdFoX187]

Code for, "I'm bitter for not getting in. Please spite them for me, Jesus."

Not necessarily true. My 360 has been acting up as of late...

 

[Gleeky]

I destryed three guys with the new shotty - boy were they surprised.

oh, and needler rules. *BOOM*

How does the new shotty compare to Halo 1 and 2?

 

[Proelite]

i see some aliasing, but everything else looks lovely.

 

[Blimblim]
