I respect your opinion, I'm probably just going to disagree with it.

Wait, what does F5 do again?

And I still don't get the obsession of going 'W00t 1st pge suckahs!'.

Those toys looks awesome! :D Too bad I'll probably feel childish if I buy it in a store full of kids. Will have to bring a gang of Halo fans.

The brutes sound crazy, looking forward to see if they will outsmart me. :P

all im wondering is: how much will those replicas cost? i hope not a lot.

Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth, you'd get a lot of free games.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

Dude, there needs to be a covenant lazertag weapon toy...

I know Im good

Others may say you were lacking massive amounts of info, yet shared one of the best factors yet!

We have heard others say they are smarter or more then just a damage sponge now, you gave us more incite on exactly how smart!
I was happy to hear just how smart the brutes are getting, in such detail at that! Im looking forward to a real legendary challenge!

I agree that he did emphasize the system-link aspect and that they are preparing for the lack of online co-op. However, I have not made peace with this. If other developers can provide online co-op bungie should be able to figure it out. Perfrect Dark, GRAW, Rainbow six, and Gears all had it. Figure it out bungie!!!!

Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

Not only is it not September, or even August... it's also not a joke. This isn't funny to me...

Haha, interesting statement Lukems >_>

Excellent update.

Another way the Brutes continue to prove to me that they are in fact, smarter than I am, is in their ability to adapt and adjust to situations on the fly

I periodically check Bungie every once in a while to see if they have any new info, so it should be known I'm not a HUGE halo fanboy, but, you guys are getting excited about halo lazer tag guns. I didn't know adults played lazer tag. Playing it in the open you must look ridiculous. Or are they just collectibles you hang on your walls to scare off possible friends or dates?

I'm sure it's silly to say but I'd love some confirmation on H3 shipping with online co-op.

I must say, I'm extremely disappointed that co-op will possibly not be over live. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has the capacity to set up system link whenever they want to play with his or her friends, and if other games have been able to do it (Gears of War, Crackdown, etc...) then it only makes Bungie look like a lazy bunch of game developers....

LOL... I keep on thinking the same thing too. First page... and ?? lol. Anyway, the replicas seem pretty well done, and are quite shiny. But I'm a bit confused on the whole size issue. What about the grunts. I'm very sure the average grunt holds the Plasma Pistol without any issues. And the humans in the game seem to do fine with the weapons lol

Well, Frankie did say that they haven't told anyone how " big the knife" they were bringing to the fight would be... so I don't think i'll start being disappointed, until after the game ships.

  • 07.28.2007 11:18 AM PDT

Nice update! Those replicas are really amazing. I can't wait to get my hands on them, so long as they're not a load of money.... Which they probably will be, but I'd understand.
Can't wait for Sept. 25!

Grunts are actually pretty big... something like 3-4 feet?

Oh, just realized.

The picture for this update and the quote being said, "Worst update ever", is an awesome parody of comic book man from The Simpsons.

I would so buy a MjolNir suit, two plasma rifles, and go out on halloween, and pretend to shoot stuff, ROFL!

EDIT: Good update btw. I am counting the days to Halo 3... There are about 68 more days!

Quite so... but I know and I'm sure as hell, bigger than the grunts lol... I'm not 6' 7" like the dude above there... but I know for a fact that most humans with normal height are bigger than the grunts. So... I'm guessing we should be able to wield the weapons.
