Looking good, but I'd be nice if it was linked on the site a bit clearer.

Most of those shots aren't very impressive. Were these taken at the latest pass, or are these a few months old? In a few shots, I noticed texture issues, such as in one where the Elite's face isn't textured, and the flag is just one swath of orangy red with a blue seventh column in it.

Clearer? It's right on the front page!

Speaking of screenshots, the question of voice chat has been answered.

The prospects of H2 Mac are looking slimmer. :(

OT

And while we're in The Maw, the question of a new forum for H2 Vista discussion has been answered.

And we have a search bar, now! Whoohoo!

Well hell, now they link it properly.

Firefox issues looks like what's preventing me

i hope those shots are old.


Quite. The only thing that looked close to being upgraded to me are the Spartan character models of the people the person who took the shots was playing against. The rest of the textures look the same as the Xbox version; one or two actually seem worse to me...

Ad's got a point...have you seen the indicators on the screens? Just bland blue-and-white...it doesn't have any of the inherent "shiny" the bars are apt to have...

Yeah, it was. BTW, I would like to appologise to Bungie/M$/Gearbox for my statements regarding the release of editing tools for H2V. I was wrong, they're releasing a new HEK with H2V. Coolness.
