HEy Forum Friends. I just got a really hot scoop from a friend of a friend about Halo 3 and I want to share it with you guys. I heard that this place is like North Korea when it comes to new ideas though so I'll post the meat of the rumors on my site Gaming Quaterly Monthly
Some of the new weapons and vehicles Bungie is considering include an EMP grenade that can disable vehicles, a flame thrower and a jet ski.
The game’s plot will center on repelling the covenant’s invasion of Earth and so will have much larger outdoor levels. Bungie also hopes to give the Master Chief the ability to sprint, duck and roll, and will include levels that require more stealth than brute force.
Monkey-man claims that the new Halo will not feature improved graphics, instead using the increased processing power of the Xbox 2 for larger, more interactive environments. I’m pretty sure that won’t be true, but what do I know?
It’s also worth mentioning that the Monkey says the timeline for Halo 3 is 2006, which means either the game won’t be out for the Xbox 2 launch, which I find unimaginable, or that the Xbox 2 will be delayed, which I also find unimaginable. The third option, I suppose, is that Sci_Monkey is talking out of his ass.
