"John was a space marine for fourteen years. When he was young he watched the spaceships and he said to dad "I want to be on the ships daddy." Dad said "No! You will BE KILL BY DEMONS"
"I will shoot at him" said the cyberdemon and he fired the rocket missiles. John plasmaed at him and tried to blew him up. But then the ceiling fell and they were trapped and not able to kill.
"No! I must kill the demons" he shouted
The radio said "No, John. You are the demons"
And then John was a zombie."

Does anyone have any pics of the new Beam Rifle. I know that it hasn't been officially confirmed yet but I was wonderin' if it looked anything like the Covenant Sniper Weapon shown in shots for the early version of Halo.
Don't flame either because thoughts hurt no-one...
Unless you're a Jedi... but I'm not so no flames, I'm allergic to fire

No pics yet, perhaps in the upcoming OXM.

I have doubts to whether it actually exists. The only proof that it does is a so called "beta tester" who's account of Halo 2 I read and it contradicted itself many times leading me to think it is fake. However there is no disproof, but I wouldn't assume it exists.

Depends if the guys from your local mag came to the event Bungie hosted a couple weekends back. Good luck anyhow, undoubtedly they will be posted here sooner or later.

Btw, the beam rifle has been mentioned in official releases from Bungie if I'm not mistaken . . . but I believe it will most likely be in Halo 2.

The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.


Behold the power of the Originals, the Gods Axeone-Neurone.

There is proof on pages 2 and 3 in the Xbox Spring Guide

You'd be surprised, but there is a rather lot of extreme Scottish Halo fans. I myself am one of them just like you and I know of others :) Don't worry, I'm sure we'll get something or maybe the good folks here will give us a nice report :)

Oh ok, I don't read magazines (too lazy to go out and buy them).
