I know it's not saying much, but it wouldn't hurt to read every bit of info on Halo3 the internet has to offer. I'm sorry if this is old news to some of you, but of course, not everyone has gotten a chance to read this stuff- so this is for this people.

(This is not a leak, its official on their website.)

The epic saga continues with Halo® 3, the hugely anticipated sequel to the highly successful and critically acclaimed Halo franchise. In this third chapter of the Halo trilogy, Master Chief returns to finish the fight, bringing the epic conflict between the Covenant, the Flood, and the entire human race to a dramatic, pulse-pounding climax.

Halo 3 represents the third chapter in the Halo trilogy—an international award-winning action series that grew into a global entertainment phenomenon, selling more than 14.5 million units worldwide, logging more than 650 million hours of multiplayer action on Xbox Live®, and spawning action figures, books, a graphic novel, apparel, an upcoming film adaptation, and more.


Next-gen advantage: Taking full advantage of the power of Xbox 360™, Halo 3 expands on everything that has made the Halo franchise great, adding a wealth of technical and gameplay advancements.

Evolution of design: Next-generation high-definition visuals, enhanced A.I., an advanced real-time lighting engine, and new weapons, characters, and challenges are just a few examples of Halo 3's evolution of design and technology.

Unparalleled experience: Ultimately, these improvements provide gamers with an unparalleled experience and, in the end, tell an even more compelling and engrossing story.

Online multiplayer: Working in concert with Xbox Live® on Xbox 360, Halo 3 builds upon the unique social multiplayer experience and innovative, evolving online gameplay of Halo® 2.

Hmmm it says new characters, can't wait to see what bungie comes up with next.

Heh, they also say it's a 1 player game. At least they are not as bad as imdb and say "on a planet called Halo"...

Yea I noticed that...so now...I guess the rest of that info can be argued to be incorrect? What the heck? If I worked there, stuff like that would never happen. Are people who have no idea what is going on about a game in charge of posting stuff about such games?

Those aren't leaks, they are made by people who don't work at Bungie. At least, that is what I think... You are intitled to your own opinion...of course.

It does claim that there is a new character:

"Master Chief returns to finish the fight with new weapons, challenges, and characters"

P.S What did someone edit?
