7even is Darker

It's a small thing to notice, but I figured I'd post it and see if anyone else notices.
Of course we've never been an ODST either but that's not the point:

From 34-48.

Figure it out.

Fear the Red Comet

Variety is the spice of life.
Long live games.

You mean the first person cutscene? I'm pretty sure the Jenkins log from Halo Combat evolved would be the first one to do that. If you're talking about first person dialogue from the character you're controlling then sure that's a first for the Halo series I believe.

So, kind of like a cut scene, but like...while playing or something.

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

You've got me stumped.

Aye but it's the first time bungies actually taken control of Your characters movement in first person.

yeah, the jenkins cutscene from the first flood mission on halo 1 was the first to do that, like that other guy said

It's also the first time we've had a cutscene where your character's vision sways as he moves, as though he exists in the real world (and not as a static vision camera as the gameplay often seems to be).

I was actually rather fascinated by that too. The way that the spartan laser is waved around lightly (instead of being clunky and crazily heavy) kinda detracts from the cinematic for me, though.

To be fair we can't see Joseph playing, (It was him right?) and based on how he moves, the fact that it's only for 4 secounds, and that they always plays the same through all the interviews, this is most likely scripted and not something you'll actually be able to interact with.

You need to get your rocks off on something other than two special ops troopers in a video game making out.
