nah, if you look it is the car blowing up
when MC looks to the right then back where he threw the nade there is the mark from the grenade
the early explosion was the car blowing up

It didn't wait until it stopped in the 2003 demo. It started after the first bounce. I wouldn't mind if it blew up that fast. That might have just been something gone wrong. The game wasn't finished and still isn't. Of course, it might have just been tweaked so that the guy playing didn't get his ass handed to him. Would have looked pretty bad if the guy got his ass kicked in the middle of the E3 demo.

YES!!! I did . It blew up the car way too early!!! I was just about to bring this up.. The grenades in H2 might have a controllable timer so you can set it to 5 secs or like instantaneousely. COOL.

no no no
look you guys go watch the video
heres how it goes-
1. he throws the grenade
2. the car blows up from marine or covenant fire or something, although there is no crater from where the grenade was thrown.....
3. MC turns to the right to shoot a grunt
4. When he turns back to the left you can see the crater now....

listen carefully and you can also hear two explosions.... one from the car the other from the grenade

he threw it so perfect that it hit the exact spot it needed to detonate itself. I mean he is ONLY the Master Chief

Play as a team win as a team or die as a team!


Yeah I seen that too but I heard the E3 2003 demo video was all planned out I also heard that it was a Video not someone playing it and showing it like this year's E3 2004 MuiltPlayer video. Maybe they messed up or it is something new with the nades!!

TheSpartan no117 is right. If you pay close attention you can see the car blows up from someone (not sure who) shooting it. The grenade bounced off back towards MC a little, and a lttle to the left, then it blows up.

TheSpartan no117 is right. It may look like the gernade went off too early but when the chief looks back at the same stop you can see the smoke from the gernade. The best is when that marine side steps and kills that grunt with the battle rifle. Yea yea!

Yeah Spartano117 and Trasky are right I seen the video and played it back to the same spot and looked at every detal for like 10 times. U can see when he threw the gernade about a sec later u can see the car on its side under the car u can see bullets hit the under of the car and it blows up.Then he shoots the Grunt and turns back and u can see a fire and smoke then a black crarter. So there is no timed gernade in Halo 2 so far.

guys..............a grenade is a grenade-------if it blows up, it should still be kickass. I personally loved the human grenade cuz the timer was so freakin short for immediate "results".
