No! You're giving him another way not to talk about Halo 3!

Look for the signs, the keepers of the flame.
They will lead you to war, and perhaps, to victory.

Finish the Fight

P.S tell Joseph to take it easy on the root beer during the pentathalon


LOL.

The key to winning the pentathalon...root beer
The key to enjoying the pentahalon...beer.

Aw, shame about the abscense of Mister Chief... does that mean double next week?

But nice update Frankie. Glad to see the usual Halo 3 taunting as per tradition. Them fanboiis are gonna be PISSED.

The rest of us like it though! Cheers!

Second: he said he lvls will b bigger than b 4

Three: he said that the battles will be bigger (4get the +1 grunt thing i mean y would he mention that there would b only 1 more grunt.... oh wait its Frankie...)

and Four: umm im too lazy 2 read the thing again.....

I hope not :(

But I'm just too happy about the Halo 1 feel and larger environments to be mad!

yeah y do people want ATV's so much

I hope that this year's Pentathalon makes it into the Halo 3 Making of DVD as one of the past ones did for the Halo 2 DVD!
Beat me to it. From what we have heard about the game so far, it seems they are much further into Halo 3 with relation to the timing of the Pentathalon, then what they were with Halo 2 and the Pentathalon documented on the Halo 2 SE Bonus DVD. It seemed like they didn't even start on the real game until after then. Well, I got that impression. Hopefully they have a good time, get a chance to see some daylight, and have some good eats.

I don't. I was just saying that's what it sounds like.

I would rather have an AI drive me places while I shoot.

He said you can climb!

"Oooh, maybe I can climb up there and check that thing out," sort of play.

Now you can climb certain faces, hurray! (may only be a figure of speach tho)


Can I pay you to kidnapp me and not let me out until H3 releases and let me play the beta? Hows $200 sound?

Lets hope they can translate the Halo 1 feel over to the MP as well.

Guys make sure you record the pentathalon and fit it in to a bonus DVD disc in a Limited Edition case with Halo 3.

Just like the one in Halo 2 :D

More grunts FTW!

I loved this update, ironically from what I was expecting from the introduction blurb. That's awesome the levels are fun to explore again, man I can't wait to get this game. Well I can, so take your time Bungie. I'm going to buy a projector, sure it costs a bit. But if you want to enjoy Halo 3, you need a 20 foot screen to play it on.

I just got a new 19" widescreen LCD to replace my CRT and its so much better I am playing thru the Halo1PC campaign again and marveling at the landscape and "feel" of the game. If Halo 3 gets back to that, I can't wait til I see it on my PC. Anyway I can't wait until next week when we get the Halo2Vista update. "Very, very high resolution" *drools*
