The game looks real beautiful, but the problem is that the mechanics and strategy of this game are horrible. The weapons are not nearly balanced unless they changed something. The game revolves almost entirely around having the cheap weapons. Also, they put low gravity on one of the levels... Let me just say one of my biggest issues with the new Halos has been the fact that you can jump from above somebody, and mysteriously teleport to them when your about to it the ground and assassinate them. Low gravity along with the lunge melee that is still in halo reach, encourages people to jump around like dang idiots and melee people in the backs, which doesnt take any skill or strategy, just takes trial and error. That's practically all the new halos take- No strategy, no teamwork, just trial and error testing what the cheapest techniques are. In Halo 1, it was all about responding to the enemy's actions. Not in the new Halos, just about having a cheapass position with cheap weapons. The low gravity thing just makes people jump around like idiots with no plan, trying to assisnate, like how people mindlessly sprint around once they have the hammer and melee and it requires no strategy. Halo Reach is not a good game- They added abilities to make the game seem strategic, but the abilities have no rhyme or reason. Their only goal with the new halos is to make them seem cooler. Invisilibity- camp all day. Jetpacks- Fly around and just shoot. Try landing on people and mystriouesly teleporting to them, boy thats real strategic. Invincibility- Somewhat useful, but not nearly as strategic and requiring of skill and timing as sprinting does, I think. If they added sprinting to Halo 1, it would be a billion times better of an improvement than the improvements they attempted to make in this game.

A question, if you are holding a core/flag/bomb are you able to sit in the falcon?

Elites just got more badass, and thats saying something. Also, can't wait to play on Zealot. Zero-G combat and all.

With regards to the Blame Stosh this week: BARREL ROLL DENIED! SUCK IT, PEPPY! OT: Sweet, sweet new update. This answers so many questions, but arises more. Those that arise will probably be answered next week, but that will only make more questions. And the cycle for the gain of knowledge expands. 39..more...days.

My god, General Armor looks AMAZING!
-
Looks unbelievable. Can't wait for it to come out, seriously. Even if the campaign sucks--and the campaign better not suck, damn it--the multiplayer will make this game worth it.
-
Nice.
-
la la la hooray
-
Aww, man. They basically just announced that not another pixel will ever be put into another Halo game under Bungie. This is both a sad day, and the best day ever!

Wow, the Elite armor looks amazing Bungie! What Cloony's in this game, lol. I am not going gold, I am gold!
-
*sigh* IGN already told us about the maps, and the elite armour. How uneventful. Btw, why does the General elite armour look sooo much better than the Field Marshal armour?

Ivory Tower is back!

I love the look of the Field Marshall Elites. They looked terrifying (terrifyingly awesome) in the campaign trailer. Also, the Revenant looks to be a lovely new addition to our multiple methods of splattering. Am I the only one who misses the Spectre?
-
Ok, ok, I read it... but I have to put my pants back on now... AWESOME UPDATE. Very, very juicy. Reflection... can't wait... oh, yummy yummy sausage.
