BobBQ - Thank you for answering that question. I had been pondering (headwise) whether it was FP or TP at that time. I suppose I could've just watched the doc, but I've been out. Thanks.
Yeah Ops, I noticed that too. That was awesome.
Personally, I think the sniping noise was the true highlight of the video, that was awesome.
Though, little things I noticed - it's the same sound effect from the same 3D spot every time the Hog skids or hits the ground, the Pelican skipped 2-3 frames when we first see it, and a LOT of the animation was very loose and bumpy. In aspects such as that, and just general graphics, Halo became far better. I hesitate to say that was cooler - I mean, the rocket hogs, the sword, we're gonna have it all now.
I heard somewhere, either in the documentary or IGN, or something, that Halo was going to be a much larger game, not just the extras, like the sword and the rockets etc... But all around bigger, more levels, more enemies, more storyline, but since it was due for XB release, they cut it basically in half, now they've had the time they needed to finish the other half, and make it (generally) the way they want to. That's what I heard, anyway.
Still, at any rate, that video is awesome. 9:42 of gold.
