Subject: What? No animations...

No in-game animations with the hands when turning detonator switches or climbing ladders? How about switching weapons?

They do still have a few months to polish everything, but than again nothing like that happened in the other halo games.

if it's animated in Halo 3, it'll be animated in ODST, lol

halo is a quick game, having animations when interacting with the "world" slows down the game play

Yeah, but the other Halo games had competitive multiplayer. Animations would just get in the way. They could add them in seeing how it's just co-op. I'm sure they can make some tween animations quick enough to keep from harming gameplay. SOCOM has quick weapon switching animations and COD has the interactive hand animations when turning switches and stuff. They do them quick enough to keep from harming gameplay.
