The Sentinel Beam isn't excluded from Matchmaking due to any performance concerns. It's excluded because it's ridiculous. It may as well be firing super-accelerated clowns. - Shishka

Grunts so had a birthday party in halo 2 thou.

i hear in the update the grass looks photorealistic but thats the prob it should look like actual grass not a photo of grass layed out on the floor

it would be really cool if you shot a rocket or threw a grenade and there would be a dirt patch on the ground instead of the grass still being there. and same with the moss.

Ya me to my friend me to. I don't get what this other guy is talking about a photorealistic game looks better then anything. How could you get more real then that?

What I really want to know,is,(this question being aimed at Frankie),does the current build for the grass,dirt,ect.,look better than The Elder Scrolls 4:Oblivion?Will I finally put down this gorgiouse RPG,and once again become an FPS fan?

  • 01.12.2007 4:48 PM PDT

A short update this week, where we talk about the progress of the graphics. Specifically, the decorators, those little items that make big liefeless worlds into big life-filled worlds. There's also the first ever combat dialog outtake. Good luck to Chicago and Seattle this Sunday. GO SEAHAWKS!

Yay Seahawks!
I liked Joe's grunty voice!

For some reason the start of the Grunt voice reminded me of Invader Zim. But then twards the end there was no mistaking it for what it was. I can't wait to hear some more.

ive heard in recent updates that the water is really nice and will move with whatever is in it; for example a warthog is roaming through the water, water will spray to the side like a car drives through a puddle.
