My thoughts. Graphics: Nice, unlike the campaign screenie I can actually see the reflection in the visor; though this is likely more do to thier actually being something around for the visor to reflect unlike in the campaign shot. Lookin good , bungie, keep it up! Brute Chopper: I really hope it's a to wheelled motorcycle of death since that would fit the brutes, given their big biker influence and all and of course the name "chopper". However I think it's more likely it hovers to fit the covie tech. Spartans: As most have already said, there are several surviving Spartan IIs and even some Spartan IIIs, however to not ruin the plot for those who haven't read the books I'll say no more. Armor Permutations: Quite simply, ROCK, though, the one I assume is the CQB helmet (dude with shotgun) looks stupid in my opinon. Functional in regards to the wider field of view logic but still dumb looking. However dumb looks don't stop 8gauge buckshot from tearing you face off. I personally would like to see some like, skinny stripped down sniper or scout armor, or even the SPI armor from Onyx (armor of the Ninjanaught perhaps?). Though, in honesty I am more interesting in seeing new Elite armors, as well as the hope that bungie fixxes the headbox for the Elite in H3 (assuming they are available in multi). Armor Advantages: Unlikely in my opinion. Most likely it'll only be cosmetic changes. [Edited on 07.06.2007 3:41 PM PDT]
