Subject: Halo 3: Behind the Scenes

10 years with Bungie.
3 years with 343 Industries.

It's time for that all to change, and to take 343 to the top.
Bungie, it's been one hell of a good run with you guys. It's just time to move on. We'll be together again soon.

I'm looking at the show thing on Halo 2 and comparing that to Halo 3, no contest, along even with the music, which is WAY better. I just love the music. it put me to sleep one time. lol. but 90 people, half artists, half engineers...wow, they're good. If They can do this to the Trailer, they can do it to the game, You oughta know that this is gonna be one Kick-Ass Game! Bungie Rules!

Interesting marine like figure being made, and nice new creatures in a line... Also, some interesting hints...
"You won't just finish one fight, you'll finish all the fights you started in Halo 1."
Flood and Covenant GOING DOOOOOOWN.
Also, I think personally these new angles made the graphics look better.
Nice shotty too...

What about the new enemies? Or was it a Grunt? It didn't seem so. And what about the new weapon?


Did any one else get the idea that those images on the monitor about three minutes in looked like elites in Spartan armor?...

Ill go ahead and wait eons downloading the high res version...ill see if I can get some good screen shots.

number one stunna

Posted by: Nate2Pyro
well, I don't know if anyone else mentioned something about this, but did anyone else see the really short part when master cheif is standing on the edge of the cliff and he turns around to watch the covenant ships fly in, and it looks as if they are selected or something and they have litte circles around them with what looks to be information about that specific vessel. I don't know if this was supposed to be what game play looked like, or if it was just what it looked like when it was being made. could someone help me out with this?! thanks.


I'm guessing that was footage from when they were showing the video on their computers, and had it running in their program for making the game. Hence the red circles showing all the stats about the vehicles highlighted. Most likely showing the relative position, telemetry, etc. It's for Bungie's coding, not our visors. :0

anybody else spot the chief on the monitor holding..... THE HALO 1 SHOTGUN!?!???!?!?! YES!!!!!!!!

...

yes...the things on that computer moniter might have been elites in spartin armour,as Zakushark said. And that could be true because, as you see in the last parts of Halo 2, the Arbiter gangs up with sarge and Keyes. Soooo...the humans may be sharing their armour with the former Covenant??

i don't know about you guys but i was able to stream it in hd without downloading with no lag.

All i have to say is THAT IS AWSOME. Im to lazy to read all the posts right now but im going to throw out some stuff. In order first this to catch my notices (other than the trailer) it after Frank O' Conner says "some thing seems wrong" about 1 minute 29 seconds in. Cortana ahows up again. She has a black background (even early in the tralier at some parts." and if you listen to the sound at the end of when cortana says "your past your future" 1 minute 32 seconds in. The music turns to the gravmine/ 343 guilty spark/ flood type levels. The second thing of course can be seen in this picture here http://f5.putfile.com/6/15621583055.jpg

and here

New gun (look real close to the end of the arm, kind of like a modified plasma pistol or some thing.) new enemy?? of grunts with jet packs. Or the methane tanks modified.
Also Jay Weinland about 5 minutes 44 seconds in says " I think in the end you'll absolutely going to be able to play exactly what your watching in this trailer" This could mean two things. For those of you who dont know thats the new thing that is for the xbox 360, Playable cutscenes. Or, Yes I know bungie has touched on this before but this helps second it, that this maybe part of the playable game.

Any ways that all i have. time for bed. good night all of you and bungie and the community.

Edit: I must admit i cried to and just about S P 3 R M 3 D

oh wait i think i did.
Yep babies are crawling.

i agree the reason the elites would have saprtan armor is because they broke up with the covs and are helping the humans against the covs.
