Well, it comes out in Canada and US. I bet it came out in US first anyways.
You see on the cover that the assault rifle has 32 bullets.
At first I said to my self "Oh this is some fan art" But then it says in the magazine that it is art from Bungie and it even saidd the guy's name. It's Isaac.
Forgot his last name.

I don't reccomend you guys to actually get it. The only good thing is the exclusive Halo 3 scoop that is 16 pages, thats it. They also said the gun sounds exactly like the Halo 1 ar. They said mybe it was just maybe there until they put the new sound for it.

Why would they? If bungie showed the news first, no one would buy the magazine. They'll probaly have something about it next week.

  • 07.12.2006 9:48 AM PDT

that which is not dead can eternal lie, but with strange aeons even death may die.

the article in the OXM wasnt that good, I mean the pictures were good, but most of the info is already known,

though it does say that bungie showed them more in the trailer, like they went to FPS mode, and fired the AR for them, and OXM said it sounded the same, but it was probably a cover sound, just to throw them off.

and for the cover art, I dont think the AR will have 32 rounds, I bet it'll have more, just for that Art it didnt, ooooorrrrrrr, maybe there different ammo, were you got the 60 AP rounds, and 32 shredder...hell I dont know...

Did they say clearly that the AR will have a 32 bullet clip? Or you supposed that because on the front page the MC's AR has 32 bullet? That doesn't mean the clip is full. And in the trailer the AR has 00 bullet and people are not saying "OMG IN HALO 3 THE AR WON'T SHOOT IT WILL ONLY MELEE"

We do, so i guess that means that its just something they made up to put the words HALO 3 on the front page of their magazine.

Chill man. Most of the things Bungie said in the magazine you've already read about.

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

I got the issue and it does not say anything on it.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

the editors on OXM are offering some of there own Halo 3 ideas!

Some of them are good ideas others are terrible and stupid.

Heres how I respond to them.

What should be in Halo 3:


Co-Op play on XBOX Live:

I agree with them on this 100%. Online Co-Op is a must on Halo 3!



The XBOX Live headset integrates into the single player game:

This would be a neat option in Halo 3 to have Cortana speak with you through the headset, but not evryone has a headset.

The return of the original pistol:


No! It is to overpowered, everyone would just go for pistols all the time instead of the other weapons.


A player controllable Pelican in multiplayer mode:

Again it is a dumb idea, it takes two people to pilot a pelican and operate the weapons systems.
Also it would be to hard to shoot it down.


An unlockable, Playable Brute:

No! It has no energy shields so it cannot work.


The ability to save clips of incredible multiplayer moments to your hard drive:

That would be a pretty neat feature to watch clips of yourself owning or getting owned!


A motercycle and sidecar:

No! Halo is not a circus!



Other Spartans:

Halo fans are mixed on this issue, but most likely Bungie will just stick with one spartan/Master Chief again.


Duel-weilding Energy Swords:


HELL NO!!!!!!



The return of blood gulch... again:

It should and will return.




What shouldn't be in Halo 3:


The Flood:

OXM, you guys are dumb, The flood will be returning.



Master Chiefs face:

I agree, the Master Chiefs face should not be revealled, it ruins the mystique.



Buddying up with The Arbiter:

This will more likely happen in Halo 3 than them both killing each other.



Playable Arbiter:

Again OXM, you guys should be smart enough to know that The Arbiter will be returning.

Bungie didn't allow you to play as him in Halo 2 for nothing!



More Halo ring worlds:

I doubt we will see another Halo, but we will be playing again on Delta Halo as The Arbiter for sure.



That is my thorough analysis of OXM's Halo 3 ideas, do you guys agree?
