No I'm not taliking about taking pictures.
While I was playing multiplayer the other day, I committed suicide and began to think of how cool the action in the game looks from the third person view (while you're respawning), and how fun it is to watch. Then I began to think about how sometimes I enjoy watching games more than I like playing them. Then I thought "Wouldn't it be cool if you could just use your screen to watch the action in Halo 2".
Think about it. Instead of watching TV when you get home from school, you sit down with your bowl of cereal,log on to Xbox Live, pick "Camera Mode", pick a game and just watch the chaos unfold on your television screen and be entertained. I think it'd be sweet. You would be able to manipulate the camera how you want. Have it in a fixed posotion in a high traffic area, have it pick areas at random, have it follow around players at random or have the camera follow a certain player around and take notes on any elite techniques you may see . Of course, you'd have an option to not have players follow you while you're playing in order to keep your tactics a secret;) I think it'd be a great change of pace to just watch a game of Halo than to have to play it all the time. As a matter of fact, this should be available in all games. Xbox Live would become like a TV network were you can watch people play games 24/7!
