No to rain on anyones parade, but personally I didn't see much improvement in graphics. Also I do realize it was a very early trailer, but the game-play doesn't look very exciting. I do understand its an early trailer but personally I think bungie could have clipped together a better preview. But Reach looks good!

Its supossed to be an expansion pack, not a new game, expect the gameplay to be almost exactly the same as halo 3's with a few new maps and gamemodes thrown in. Maybe a stealth level here and there.

Agreed.

Seriously, what did you expect?

Watch the E3 gameplay. The graphics look a lot better than Halo 3's.

Why don't you level 50's out there, when you finally decide to apply for colleges...why don't you put that you were a level 50 on your application. And put it on your job resume, too. See how much it matters, and how much people care.

Ok, you do know bungie did say they are not reworking any of the engines, as in it's runing all of the same things halo 3 is.

Agreed.... with the exception of Reach (not enough info)

You say that ODST fell below your expectations with gameplay, but you think Reach looks good based on some dialogue and a planet being blown up? I'm sorry, but don't you think that seems a little backwards?

Go Rams and Missouri!

Are you kidding? I think the graphics are leagues ahead of Halo 3's! The explosions are beautiful, and the environments don't look as flat. And did you see that nice visor feature? That thing is beautiful! And I also love the way the shields are when the Brute get's hit, I like how they decided to go back to what they did with Elites in Halo 1 and 2 when their shields were hit.

The graphics are fine the way the are. Why do people still complain about this? They look great.

And the gameplay looks incredible, so does the trailer.

TEAM Free For All? I can't wait to see how Bungie pulls this one off.

Yeah, it's awesome. Legendary Brawl is the world's only 1v1v1v1v1v1v1v1v1v1v1v1 team multiplayer experience.

How can you say Reach looks good if they didn't actually show any gameplay? There was nothing to base your opinion off of. Halo 3: ODST IMO doesn't even look like a Halo game. It looks nothing like one and looks really really good. I wish now seeing this game, that Bungie would have made the whole multiplayer experience for Halo 3 just like how this game is going to be. It looks amazing.
