Halo 3 - General Discussion & Info

Found the Game Fuel. Good lord. I know why I stopped drinking pop 2 years ago..

A 20 oz 290 fucking calories? 77 grams of sugar? This stuff is diabetes in a bottle.

I also picked up a 12 pack for collection purposes.
 
I'm not a halo fan and haven't played halo 2, And when I get halo 3 (Wich is going to be awhile) I'll only play it online with friends.
 
[quote name='Punk_Raven']I don't know why G4 hasn't gotten Red v Blue yet. They have a history with them as they used them for their Halo day commercial or whatever ( don't ask ). But anyways.

I only bought Halo 2 to see if I'd like the series in the first place. Well, I do. So I guess I won't spend much time with it. The funny part is that because I bought Halo 2 I probably won't have Halo 3 near launch.[/QUOTE]

It'd be pretty cool. But seriously, when would they show a 4-8 minute video every week? AotS is the only thing I can think of... It'd get a lot more people watching though.

I think RvB will stay on the internet. I wish they'd hurry up and announce the new RvBs... I know they're having more. They said they were ending "Red vs. Blue:The Blood Gulch Chronicles" Which leads me to believe they'll start a new 'chronicle' with Halo 3...

I just watched that in a meeting with no sound..

But holy shit that looked fucking awesome. WAY better than the first one. I actually got chills.

LOTS of screens from 1up:

Goddamn Halo is teh s3xy.

First image of the Elephant:

[quote name='A Happy Panda']Sorry. Didn't know everyone has an EGM subscription?[/QUOTE]
The pictures were posted here, and I posted a picture of the elephant (someone took of Halo Epsilon) two days ago.
 
[quote name='artimus_black']Yeah, saw the Elephant in EGM.

I don't really understand using it... But driving something that freaking big sounds awesome.[/quote]

1up says its indestructable... I hope they meant figuratively.
 
[quote name='help1']1up says its indestructable... I hope they meant figuratively.[/QUOTE]
No, I read that it can't be blown up. I guess that's because it is the base for CTF games.
 
[quote name='zewone']No, I read that it can't be blown up. I guess that's because it is the base for CTF games.[/quote]

That sounds awesome, having a movable base will definately keep things more interesting.
 
[quote name='LinkinPrime']That sounds awesome, having a movable base will definately keep things more interesting.[/QUOTE]
Hell yeah.
 
[quote name='LinkinPrime']I somehow missed it and I'm an EGM subscriber...thanks A Happy Panda[/QUOTE]

I did see a picture, but it wasn't as clear as the screen as shown on 1up. But oh well. I also suggest watching the new short.

The elephant moves faster than I thought it would.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']I wish brutes were in multi...[/quote]

Supposedly there are more suprises left for Halo3...so you never know.
 
[quote name='Trakan']The game looks fucking gorgeous. I can't wait.

The screenshots you take are going to be automatically uploaded to Bungie and you can make your own gallery? Goddamn.[/QUOTE]

I fully recommend reading IGN's write-up about Forge.

:drool:

You can do so much shit with it. AND you can do this with 8 players at the same time? It's like Little Big Planet Halo-ized.

You can also search through editted maps and user vids on Bnet. Find the ones you like, and the next time you get on Halo 3, the downloads start automatically.
 
From GS:

[quote name='Gamespot']However, you can save screenshots of the game and upload them to Bungie's Web site, and we were pleased to find out that these screenshots will actually be of higher resolution than the 720p resolution the game renders at (one-and-a-half times bigger, to be precise). We foresee a lot of gamers applying Halo 3 wallpaper to their computers after release, thanks to this feature.[/quote]

fucking amazing. Seriously. My friend and I always talk about Bungie always delivers on what the fans want. Oh, grenades aren't powerful enough? Here's a patch. Miss the pistol? We'll make the BR 4-shot. Want new playlists? Here you go.

Halo 3 just continues this. Oh, you guys miss the open-ness of Halo 1's campaign? Here you go. You miss the pistol? Here. You want a limited energy sword? Here.

I think that Bungie know whats best for their games. They listen to their fans when they should, don't listen when they shouldnt. We can't say that for other games, like GOW, where the balance is ruined because tehy listen too much.

Also, Bungie is innovative. The party system is amazing, and this new save your games thing makes montages and pictures of your games simple as pie.

Im just going to post the gamestop preorder video, just incase it gets lost on the previous page:

Man i can't wait. I want the game sooner. they announced that they were finished like 2 weeks ago. I guess they just need time for advertising...

Just got GH II for 5 dollars guitar & game.

Even if it's completely done, they still need to put millions of copies to disc and ship them to retailers.
 
One of those new 1up shots shows some more emblems.

I'm kinda diggin' the supernova, but it's going to be hard to give up my helmet emblem from H2.

Good find! New game, new emblem. I hope those are not the only new ones, but im sure they are not anyway. From that list, I might take Supernova or bearclaw, but the bearclaw will be played out fast.
