Subject: Beefed Up H3 Engine for ODST?

I was reading in OXM that ODST has an enhanced Halo 3 engine. Does that mean the game will look even better than halo 3 or maybe better cinematechs too?

It should look slightly better since the artists have had more time to add more detail to objects and they are more familiar with the engine.

As you progress throughout your life you realize that the older you get the closer your are to death, the only thing you cannot change.

Yes it does, for the most part nothing has even changed in the engine, they just upgraded the graphics, and did some slight AI work, but yes this means slightly better graphics.

How to spell "space"?

S-P-ACE! SPACE!

Seen the gameplay trailer? The visuals kick Halo 3's ass.

The Halo 3 Engine in ODST is slightly beefed up, also, artists have more experience with the engine and thus know how to use it more efficiently.

You can see this evidence in the Halo 3 multiplayer maps. If you notice, the Mythic Maps look much better than the ones that shipped in the box.
