The weapons sound good but the the explosions sound so fake they make a long high pitched "peeeew" noise real grenades make a very fast very loud"boom" noise.

opinions please.

Yay!

If you got this from e3 you have to know that's not the final version, so they will probably tune it to where its sounds completely real. Don't worry about it.

I thought the grenades sounded awesome that way (in Halo)!!! At least it's not as bad as RS3's frag sound. It's so stale sounding.

for your information, the grenades from halo 2 are from the year 2055 or whatever, not current day grenades , so they should not resemble todays grendes. of course they wont sound the same

Yeah, but Halo is not a realistic game.

Everything in the demo is subject to change.

For example, in the E3 2003 single player demo, it looks like the grenade explosion is just a placeholder. When MC looks down over the edge and throws a grenade between the grunts, the explosions doesn't look very good.

Probably just a placeholder, along with the sound.

if you read stuff that ppl stated about Halo 2.. youd see that bungies audio guys are going WAY WAY out of their way to make Halos sounds awesome.. surround sound or not its definitly gonna be better than halo 1 sounds

props to you anonymous audio guys.. keep up the good work

awesome
