you know what you should be asking if anyone noticed? That it says this is the final HALO GAME i think that is the best and worst part of this but of course you have to make some random post about ooooh look its the halo 1 AR everyone noticed.

Actually it doesnt say its the final Halo game, even Bungie declined to say that - they said it was the final game in this plot-line, story-arc, whatever. It just said 'finish the fight'. No ones dumb enough to rule out further Halo-based games, that would be financial suicide.

I did notic; that was the best part of the trailer. I would have been mad if they pulled that battle rifle junk again.

It looked like a assult rifle with different textures. I hope they make the pistol better than Halo 2 but not as good as halo 1

I wish they would just bring back the 2X zoom.

ok. Really it is just an updated assault rifle not some BR mixbreed. It has no scope, no new grip, and no hollowed out sight rail. It is so stupid how people see it in the new graphics engine and freak out.

It is not a hybrid. It is a re-skinned AR. In the first image, the MC is clearly holding a BR.

Its not nessasarly the Zanzibar wheel as much as it is a giant circle type thing.

Maybe the reason the MA5B Assault Rifle is being shown is because it is a plot point. Maybe Master Chief is using that outdated weapon because it is the last thing he could find that still had ammo lying around for it. Maybe he found that weapon is a armory that had all the outdated weapons from Halo. Just a thought....

Dude I don't know what's wrong with some of you, the BR is far better than the old assault rifle. My fingers are crossed for the pistol though. If that doesn't happen no biggie.

edit: now that doesn't mean i'm gonna get my panties all in a bunch like some of you when it comes this stuff and act like a little b**ch if they do get rid of BR in H3

Im not saying anything about which rifle is better. I actually prefer the BR due to the nice scope on it and the more accurate shot. The Assault Rifle had some nice features to it like its 60 round cartridge and its ability to take lots of people out at close range.

  • 05.09.2006 8:53 PM PDT

It's all about teamwork. :)

The Battle Rifle is a different type of rifle, its in the same category as the Halo Assult Rifle though, they are different guns, its not a combination of anything. If you look at the AR/BR they have the same design like the butt of the gun and the handle, its just the old AR but really fancy because of the 360 graphics engine.

Been a lot of threads about this...

Seems to me it's a combination AR/BR.
