A chain gun. A destroyed Warthog. A boosting Ghost... What more needs to be said? Go see it for yourself.

Stick around, we've got a few more goodies coming later this week.

I love Bungie. As obsessively as I observe (and as ruthlessly as a critique) games, you guys are surpassing my expectations--expectations which you yourselves have hitherto sent soaring. But Sketch--anyone there at Bungie--please, PLEASE, do not make this game too Noob-friendly. That is the fear I have from watching the latest gameplay vid. It should take at least as long to master this game as Halo; at the risk of sounding impertinent, don't cheapen our Halo 2 experience by making it too easy to jump in the game and hang with us seasoned pros. This isn't ego-protectionism; it's just that Halo, more than any action game I've ever played, rewards strategy and true skill. For example, the skills in my crew have been on an upward spiral even after two years of playing--we've never 'plateaud'! Who would have thought that that a game could have enough room for such manifold skill development? It would be a devastating disappointment if Halo 2 didn't follow suit.

Ok well dont get me wrong I love every picture we get to see, but im sure im not the only one who would rather get a Demo or something of that multi player level, or I dunno something to sooth our wait? I mean come on everytime I see those awsome pictures of CTF and regular multiplayer, I wana be the lucky guy who had the chance to play that! Anyways if they can play it at E3, could Bungie have a demo copy avaliable for us?

Rock N' Roll Bungie keep up the good work!

I think RMagnus needs to get out more.

For me, no more screenshots, more more videos, just release the f#$%er.

Thanks

Everyone get a grip. The game won't come out till' November so chill. Giving out a demo would ruin the anticipation of the game. You know i know Bungie knows it, this game is guaranteed to good. They didn't release much for HALO until ofter it was out nad is still selling copies. So everyone should trust bungie first, because we might cause them not to release the game(Yeah Right....)THE GREAT CHAKA HAS SPOKEN.

Bungie, you're my God. The makor of the greatest game EVER! Thank you, Bungie! Phew, just had to let that out. Anyway...the new screenie doesn't work yet because of some maintaince...ZzzZzzZzzZ...but I'm fine with it. Guess it's worth the waiting.
Soon summervacation, those two months goes fast as usually, so that will be like 6 months - 2 months = 4 months. Kinda 4 months to the release-date. And since this is May month there is a lot of free-from-school-days so that's kinda - 1 month less. 3 months with waiting. Just think positive. 9th of November 2004 will be a holy day. I'm gonna remember that day as long as my brain is still active...and don't make fun of me now. It is active! Not so much at school tho but...bah! Who cares?

These new screenshots are way too much for me to handle. I have a few friends that don't actually have an xbox yet and if by November 9th 2004 they dont already have an xbox i will personally by them a goddamn XBOX with two controls and Halo 2. I believe now, that no one on this planet earth deserves to pass this game up. In the first HALO when i first played, i was in awe and couldn't explain that feeling in words. Then me and a buddy paired up for co-op to beat legendary. An experiance that would last a lifetime. Now, I am highly thinking that this HALO 2 experiance will be the same extraordinary thing but multiplied by ten!

poundin shields (and beers)

You have completely ruined me. I was at E3 yesterday and got to actually play Halo 2. If you are reading this post and you are a fan of Halo please let me confirm that all your expectations, no matter how high they are, will be blown completely out the door. This is the morning after and all I am going to be doing today is looking for a way to be cryonically frozen for six months because my life has been completely ruined. You had better be careful what you wish for because the information can be devastating. I am not going to tell you about anything new I did in the game but I will tell you this; I saw the best of E3 yesterday(half life2, ghost recon2, doom3, splinter cell 3) and nothing even came close to what bungie is going to do to you when Halo 2 releases. Halo 2 really is a flaming ninja and whatever the worst descriptives you can attach to it. I am volutarily removing myself from the convention floor today and could possibly return tomorrow. But if I can't play Halo 2 again there is no point to going back.

lol, geez, i dont care what some ppl think, but from what i hear halo 2 cannot be played by anyone on the floor at e3, only "behind closed doors" so unless your the press or somone special... well u know.. and besides its just a DEMO! theres still 6 months for bungie to fix it up :)

Ummmmmmm! WoW i mean WoW like that is so cool that warthogs have life now. like its not anymore well placed grenades or a beautiful shot right through the passangers side and the divers didnt even no wut hit him ( im talkin no shields here). like now a single shot rifle that can go as fast as u can pull the tigger. Turrets will be fun for about the first 5 seconds and then ur dead by a sniper like ya imagen turrets on the bases on blood Gultch. Just a Bigger target for me i say. But ya still would be awesome to shred like a ghost when its got ur flag. and about to go over a hill, yup sure would do the job.

Wow.
Where the **** did that come from, RMagnus? The guy is (as are most of us) very excited about what promises to be an incredible game. There's no need to be pissy.
