AWESOME, im glad to see the jackals getting some screen time, they seem to be often over looked by the Grunts and Elites ... speaking of whick we need a screen of some grunts to I can pimp them out like this http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/3917/pimpgrunts.jpg : ) and ascreen of the seemingly MIA Hunter.

I know this has been said before but OMG! I'm so glad they finally released another SP pic. I've been wanting to see more of sweet sweet graphics of sp, although mp is looking mighty sweet too. Looking at MC I can't help but just think about how he must look in motion, and how everything else will look moving. It's going to be so great. When this game releases I'm not going to sleep for at least a month...J/K... but seriously maybe a week or more. And you guys better be there with me on Live to get into some serious killen.

Nice screenshot Sketch. I agree that it is the best one yet, and about 10 times better than those three multiplayer ones, for some reason. Is it because the graphics are turned down in multiplayer or something? Cos the textures and bump-mapping look much better in this one.

Dont worry, there will be the hunters, hopefully they are a little harder to kill. I find them more of a nuesance than a challenge in halo.

and yes that link that showed the pic of MC in halo is a fake, its not really fake just a............. (showcase) if you will something to show off the polish and graphics of a game they usually come out before game design ends. so to basically BRAG: "look at my graphics you others are just -blam!-'s compared to me!"

the whole games in fist person not just the campaign....and they take 3rd person pics so u can see MC...and it looks much cooler. man this pic is awesome....it also sorta looks like the jackal in the backround next to the door is sort of surrendering...but it might just b the way hes standing...

No kidding! I don't think anyone who saw the pic actually thought that the game would be played in third-person just because it showed the MC in third-person.

the jackals look awesome! and...one has the plasma rifle?

There are 10 kinds of people in the world: those who know binary, and those who don't.

actually that prolly is a real single player pic, because game developers, and specifically bungie, have developed software to allow them to freeze a scene at any given time in gameplay and then move th camera angle aroun the area to find an appropriate view. they actually mention in it one of the weekly updates or sumthing, if only briefly. trust me tho, its out there sumwhere.so anyway, that should be an actual first person single player screen shot, just altered to third person because thigns look better from a specator view than they do from a first person view. not because they're lying about the graphics, but because you can see more stuff from thrid person. its a simple idea rally, and a simple trick to do it. just get the right programmers to write u up the system, and there ya go.

when they program a game like Halo they also program some of the tools to build the game - one of those tools is to record a level then they take a screen shot from that replay - I'm pretty sure Frankie mentions something about this in one of his updates...

He (franky) did say that they had a new method of taking screens that was much easier, is that what you are talking about, yea?

One of the best yet. It's just so beautiful. *Dabbs away the tears.*

Seriously though, they are using less polygons, and this is better than any game that I ever saw.

Many people think that the door in the picture is the same one from the picture with the Elites. I guess it may have never occured to someone that the doors might look all the same, because in Halo most of the structures had the same type of doors.
