Thanks guys.

I thought it was funny that the podcast was 123MB and the medium video was only 84MB.

Believe.

Is it a spider?! Get it off!

sooo, will our voices be picked up during the saved films or do we have to dub it in ourselves? PM me with an answer.

Uhhhh there is no way it would record voices. Don't people understand what saved films in Halo 3 actually are??!

  • 09.20.2007 11:00 PM PDT

Stooping to the lowest level of whoring...

My Halo 3 Wishlist, My File Share, Blood Gulch, Halo 1 CTF

Voices are network data. How do you think they get to your console. The saved film would just need to include said data...

I'm more curious about why there's still no word from Bungie about why we can't export our saved films as actual video files on our networked PCs. That would be a killer app that makes owners of other consoles seriously jealous. Hell, even PC gamers don't have that kind of flexibility...

"Hey! I heard you fellas taste.... just like chicken!!"

Ok! This game and its features including saved films will blow Breaking Benjamin away too, no doubt since hes a hardcore fan!

I may not have Live but I sure will build a castle or two out of boxes, depends how many boxes we can spawn though...

yeah, at 2:30 in the vidoc, there are like 3 people driving this spectre-like sled thing, wuts that?

  • 09.21.2007 8:13 AM PDT

I'll see you in the game.

Awesome! i cant wait. thanks for all the updates this week. only question is Will there ever be an increase in how many saved films we can have? what about those of us who have elites or the 120 gb hard drive, got to fill that up with something, why not saved films? wouldnt you agree?

looked like it had ski's on it. and that gravity hammer knocked that rocket into a random twisting motion through the air. there are many elements that look sweet here..not to mention good old fasioned matchmaking and good old classic halo action. and from what I can see the campain mode looks like a sweet tigh peice of gameplay. I'm majorly looking foward to playing this one.

I do realize a small problem though... there may not be any more multi-matches without a time limit... as the video would be too large for hour long games. Am I right? Might be a slight (or major) drawback to the video.. although it will be freakin sweet

If you actually read the post, or played any game that has saved replays (Forza Motorsport 2 for 360, and dozens of PC games that have match recorders like Battlefield 2), you would know that the replay is not an actual video file, it's only a few megabytes of game data. If 10 minutes would be 2-3 MB, and hour would be close to 15 MB. If it was a normal video file, each save film would be at least 300 MB, and an hour of 720p would be 2.7 GB.

So, to answer your question, matches with no time limit will most likely still exist in Halo 3.

That was an amazing vidoc, it actually got me a lot more pumped up for Forge since I didn't realize before just how much we could do with it. I actually laughed at the part where they just dropped tanks on each other, but placing objects for players will definitely make it an interesting match.

The only thing I haven't been able to figure out is how baseball would work. As far as I can tell, there would only be a pitcher and a batter, since it's kind of hard to 'catch' a rocket flying that high through the air. What's next, basketball with a bomb?
