It wasn't crappy. It was awesome, but it could have been 100 times better in FULL 3D. You know... top, bottom, and every angle in between? THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN DA BOMB!!!

wow i am talking 2 much, anyways i think the rocket isnt going towards the elite i think it is going away from the elite, maybe the spartan w/ the rocket launcher shot it and missed and was killed instantly after he shot it


good point an ODST and did anyone notice the needler bullets exploding in the wall to the right of the door, probably shot from the spartan that had the dual needlers?

oh ya and it is weird that the pic that is next to the story on the front page has a picture of a red elite, holding a battle rifle, not a big deal though

judging by that one 3D screen, the graphics are a little better than Halo1's... It really doesnt look that impressive

Funny...but is there any way for me to see that picture without having Quicktime? Can you give me a "direct" link to the picture?

Believe me, if you want to maintain quality images you don't want to be able to look up or down because usually its wasted space and it's not like you can translate the camera around :P Only rotate...

Go find a true QTVR (quicktime virtual reality) that has both up and down and you will see the transition kinda ruins how it looks

The effect is made by putting a bunch of pictures together and be able to scroll across them.. Notice that if you move slow it kind of clicks into different positions and not like move around half inches or anything. It is a REALLY nice effect they did there :D Better than the 6 picture cube that most QTVRs have :) (up, down, and the 4 sides of the cube = 6 for you math smarties)

The skins for the three spartan models is the exact same. I had been hoping that Bungie would implement gradual "destructible" skins, where if the player's shot at, his kneepads would start scrapin the paint off (all three sparftans have the exact same "rash" pattern on their knee). I guess all the models for multiplayer will already be "battle-ready". :(

No one seems to realize that there is a dead elite with the 3 SPARTANs... i think the plasma sword elite killed two and the other was responsible for the other one

there's another little detail that looks really cool. if you look closely on the elites armor (stay zoomed out), you can see some cool lightinng effects, even though its a screen shot. the little light reflections move as you move the camera.

when i download it, all i see is a little box in the top left corner, with a triangle, circle, and square in it. What does that mean?

That wouldnt be that "cool"... cause if they would have done that, there would only be a few places on the armor that would show destruction... (maybe his knee, helmet, chest, elbow...) it wouldnt be that great

Its cool enough to already have battle damaged armor (scrapes and scratches on the armor in the beginning)

If you REALLY want to see Halo 2's MP graphics in prime, download the E3 MP demo. Cause the screens that Bungie release only make Halo 2 look a little better than Halo 1... Even the 3D screenshot looks like crap and doesnt take advantage of showing its true graphics

Can any1 read what that small "Warning" sign says? You can see it if you move the camera directly so it's facing the elites right side, it's on the side of the ramp. I know it's stupid but I just like reading those kind of things. Like the menus in the Pillar of Autum's cafeteria. Turkey Dinner in space, cool.
