WOW, its soo shiny, and, just, wow. Those Jackals look kinda freaky now, with their big, bulgy eyes. AHHHH, run away!

Only thing that's weird is the shadowing.


no man, the shadows are great (not perfectly hard-edged, but soft like in real life)
the only thing that makes me worry though is that it appears that the shadows are a tad pixelish...

maybe it's because HALO 2 will be in 480P and my desktop is at 1024 by 768.

That's the most amazing Halo 2 screen I've seen yet. Those jackals are bump-mapped to perfection! One of them is holding a plasma rifle too! The little bastards will be even harder now, but that's great. Things keep getting better and better here. I must thank you guys for giving us this content.

Now back to staring at the new screen for a couple hours.

yes, it is, but the people at Bungie had to have been "Nitpickerish" to make the original HALO so perfect. Except for the Library level...ggghhuuhhhffphhh.

HOLY SHEEP -blam!-.

I utterly LOATHE the jackals, but this is too much.

I believe it was Frankie who just recently coined the term "diaper-bulger."

Perfect. NOW THEY HAVE PLASMA RIFLES.

Mount up, boys. September's gonna be worthy of a friggin' holiday. Well, it's gonna have a holiday IN it. Like, the 13th. Holiday...it's...gonna...applesauce.....inky plume....dunky...

I'm gonna be quiet now. Gotta go change my underpants, anyways.

This new screenshot totally blew away my lack of faith in the graphics. Hey Frank, can we look forward to the realtime reflections on Masterchief's faceplate again?

Better shadows. That's all. It's already the best looking game I've ever seen on the XBox.

Doesnt the MC look a little smaller then usual? Isnt he suposed to be 7 feet tall and the jackles only 3? unless im mistaken

oh, and the good thing is you can see a little into the MCs visor *drool* but all it looks like to me is brain mass and an eye, freaky

I love this screeny. The shadow is great and the Jackals detail is better than anything in Halo. I would have to say though that the other screenshot is better.

well, if the jackels were five feet tall, the halo 1 mc would be about 10 feet tall :o

Maybe the Bungie people should take steroids, it might make the game get finished faster. lol
