On alot of forums theres alot of post talking about the exclusive Game Informer is doing on Halo 2. Theres some scans some people took, and I have seen them. They are -blam!- umblievable and I would post them if it wasn't illiegal. But let me just give you a run down on the contents of the article.

4 teams in Multi

Can play as Elites in one mode

New Multimode Assualt, where you have to plant a bomb inside the emenmies base.

SP features levels on Earth and 2nd Halo

Umm theres more, I'll try and dig it up. : )

SINGLE PLAYER

* Bungie confirmed the campaign will take place on both earth and a 2nd Halo Ring.

* "Dual wielding is in for certain, and peeking around corners should make it in as well. Destrucible environments are also expected to be included."

* Brute and Prophet confirmed, likely to be atleast one more covenant added.



MULTIPLAYER

* Online 5 week Alpha test has been completed. The test was available only to 1000 M$ employees.

* Elites WILL be playable in atleast 1 multiplayer mode

* New multi modes confirmed, (only one described)
Assault - offense carries bomb into defense's base to score a point, roles switch after a point is scored

* "ONLINE COOP LIKELY"

* Interactive envoirments
In alpha version objects could be moved by being shot or by pushing them, could be pushed off ledges.
Final version likely to contain quite a bit more interaction with envoirments.

* Ghost and Banshee will have a new addition - Holding the L trigger will cause engines to flare and cause you to move across the map at unheard of speeds

* New "energy elevator contraption" - stepping into the swirling energy beam lifts the player up like a strong air current. Players CAN fire will being elevated (unlike when using a ladder)

* Atleast 4 teams confirmed

Its like Halo meets heaven. Message boards are gonna be off the hook tommorow. 4 teams, although simple, is my favorite feature.

alright, but so far, I've been checking around and ethier they don't got a scanner or they don't got the magazine. I know it may be bad and hurt the mags sales, but in my opinion, I think everyone is going to buy this mag regardless if they've seen the scans or not. At least I am.
