The Halo 3 & Halo 3: ODST Thread

[Nirvana]

Yup...it's officially confirmed for a 2007 release. There's a trailer up at Bungie's web site under the article titled "Halo 3". I have to say I'm pretty escited by this, looks like the MA5B assault rifle is back as well.

[Diddly]

Well I hope it has a different storyline than Halo 1 Halo 2.

[Reid]

SWEET!

[Rob]

That trailer looks pretty f'n' good.

That trailer looks pretty f'n' good.

I'm inclined to agree. I wish there had been some gameplay but those graphics looks ******' sick.

I can't wait until this game comes out.

Halo is about the only video game I play (and I'm not very good live,) however, I doubt I'll be getting the 360 just to play 3.

[Matt]

The trailer didn't do much for me, but--then again--neither did Halo 2, so I guess that's to be expected. 

Hopefully they'll get rid of all that "play as some weird alien that's not Master Chief for half the game!" bull**** for the new one.  Then I might be interested.

*jaw drops*...well, first let me say , I LOVE The halo series, so I'm probley gonna' give this trailer some praise......and I am...that was...AWESOME!...I truly can't wait till' halo 3 comes out.

I just saw the trailer. If anything, the imagery is gorgeous.

[Matt]

I saw the trailer again last night, but on a friend's 50" HDTV.

Looks pretty, has a nice score, and that's about it.  Nothing much happens.  I'd like to see some gameplay--some action--but, assuming this doesn't come out until late 2007--still a year and a half away--they probably don't have a lot of gameplay footage ready to go right now.

So, I'd consider this trailer more a teaser than anything at this point.

[Nirvana]

Me too. I'm really digging the score as well, I just love the trumpets doining the Halo theme...but, then, again, I am a trumpet player, so that's to be expected.

Anyone catch the new trailer last night on MNF? I thought it was kinda cool seeing MC a a kid, but wondered why they felt it was neccesary to put that in there. Now I'm even more pysched for Halo 3 to be released, in hopefully less than a year from now.

BTW, if you missed it, here's a YouTube of the trailer.

[Nirvana]

Aww ****, totally forgot last night about the trailer.

Right now I'm loading the trailer off of Xbox.com, for some reason it's taking forever...

EDIT- Just watched it. Hmm...not sure if it was MC as a kid, or just two kids wondering what's up in space...

I loved the transition from past to present during the battle, but a little confused what that thing he was he used...looked like a grenade of some sort, but didn't really make sense.

But how he lept of the ridge into the group of Elites was just amazing. I really can't wait for this game.

[Reid]

But how he lept of the ridge into the group of Elites was just amazing.

Upon closer examination, it looked like Brutes.

One of them looked like they had they had the Fist Of Rukt, which I so hope is not true, as it took me forever to finally kill Tartarus in that level.

[Rob]

Of course it was Chief as a kid - and the idea, was that as a kid he was wondering about beings from other planets, wishing he could meet them - but now he probably wishes he never had.


It was obvious right???
