Also, a few of us were talking during matchmaking and Halo: Reach is definitely going to be, not a first person shooter, not a third person shooter, but a second person shooter. Bungie is going to revolutionize the way you watch other people play games.
As with all engines, the boundaries of the Halo 3 engine can be played with. Utilizing the same software to perform more complex and diverse tasks isn't an upgrade - it's the adaptability that comes with smarter programming and familiarity with the software. Both of those things take time, so it's only natural that ODST will look/run a little bit better than Halo 3, despite operating on the same (or similar) software. After all, the developers have already produced an entire game (Halo 3) using this engine - why wouldn't they be better at it a second time around?
