"I see fire and I see flames. I see evil people strung up all in chains."

i believe while dual-wielding needlers or PR, if you time it right you somehow have a third stream of needles or plasma that comes out of the forehead of the player shooting...i've seen it once....so i dont really remember exactly how it looks.


Go Bears.... Seattle played a good game though. and the chargers lost...not a chargers fan but i hate tom brady.


next weekend gonna be tough against the Saints.

In Halo 3 if you were to jump/fall off something high would your sheild go down like in the original halo?

Kind of a random thought.. but I wonder if they will put the names of everyone that helped beta test in the credits.

GT: AuziesWrath :)

I Wish that they would talk about the warthog graphic or stuff like that, humans, weapons etc.

"Funny Lady" Hmmm... if Wanda Sykes is a Marine in Halo 3, I'm going to cry. And cry and cry.

Good update.

It's cool that more and more improvements to the graphics will be implemented into the final. I just want to see how far Bungie actually goes with it and how much the Xbox 360 could take.

Can't wait.

Nice update, (I read them all the time but I never really comment). Hopefully we'll be getting some juicy info on the release soon. Off the record though, it seems like H2 got alot more hype than H3 has right now. Regardless, you had me at pimps at sea. 8D!

I only have two qualms w/ all this fancy foliage.

One: Physics enabled grass and "decoration" could bog down the hardware a little. Don't get me wrong, I think it'll look awesome and add to the experience, but personally I'd rather have a smoothly running game than grass that sways in the "wind" (figuratively speaking). However, I'm not too terribly worried about this one because I trust bungie will be able too get it all hammered down while still running smoothly. It would just suck to lose some framerate or something to bloody grass... and I'm going nowhere w/ this ramble so I'll move on...

Two: I hope to hell it's not like the grass in Oblivion. Seriously, if you drop something in Oblivion's grass, it's so hard to find that it's pretty much gone... I can hear MP moments right now...

Player1: Dude, you got the sniper rifle?
Player2: Yeah, it's over there... I just dropped it so I could... um... uh oh...
Player1: YOU DROPPED IT! Well, thanks, we're screwed now...

Lawl... I can see it now... two guys getting sniped while rummaging through bushes... :)

â–ºProminent Communiquéâ—„ Where great minds think alike!

This update was lacking (as expected) but its all good.

You guys are workin hard on stuff and all.

What you should do next time instead of just doing a filler is put "Poo is the color brown" and then have a gif of the MC playing tennis.

That grunt voice kinda sounds like Matt Doran (aka "Mouse" from the Matrix) as a Veggie Tale.

GT: Slightly Good

Sorry my team had to steal that win, in such a cheap way. But hey if your QB didnt bobble it before handing it to Alexander, they would have one.
