Robt. McLees again contributes to our latest preview of a new Halo 3 weapon. Read on for the UNSC's latest intel on the Brute's grenade of choice: The Type-2 Antipersonnel Fragmentation Grenade - or [i]spike grenade[/i], for short.
-
It would actually be rather funny if the Spike grenade could be used as a melee weapon before it was actually armed... you could beat the shields off an enemy and then stick it to them when they're exposed.
-
Halo 3 s going to awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Me too Awsome!
-
all this game needs is a pet monkey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
You guys might find this interesting. I was looking around on IGN and found it. Notice the top left corner of the TV. What do you see? [url=http://media.xbox360.ign.com/media/734/734817/img_4135392.html]Picture.[/url] Hopefully that worked.

spike grenade sounds cool and all but maybe to powerful??? i mean not to make bungie feel bad or nothing but it migt make some people not like halo 3 anymore by the way the grenade would wipe out half the guys on the map.... hard to avoid 2. .
-
awsome stuff, sounds like such a fun grenade type, dam I can't wait to get stuck into playing halo 3 with mates online now. Looking foward to a possible look at the awsome hottnes that is.... the SPARTAN LASER !!
-
maybe not but the multiplayer game in halo2 added the elite as a character, whynot add a marine as well, all im saying is that we are discusing on a very improbable fact of the game here
-
I guess I got a LITTLE to exited and read it wrong. This weapon is going to rule. It's like that grenade they used in the fifth element. Bruce Willis like picks it up and turns a dial, setting how long it was going take to explode...and chunks it on to the ceiling. What an underrated movie. [Edited on 1/25/2007]

its cool though im totaly stoked bout it cant wait for release dates
-
Totally agree with you Fox, though in the first halo3 teaser have you noticed the warning sign in the back, yellow shows a grunt x-ing
-
Ok hang on sorry guys I got it. It's from Bungies perspective..........sorry I got it. They mean "Spartans" as in the employees playing multi.....I don't know why they couldn't have put testers, staff, something other than Spartan(s)! And "our tactful marines" as in the AI marines in the campaign.....ok sorry I guess I read it too fast : P

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Hollinater109 Dude when they say spartans they are speaking more or less about multiplayer, not just the story mode, hey there is a good chance that halo 3 will have multiple spartans in the story line, but i wouldnt bet on it. [/quote] Yeah, man I got that, but when was the last time you saw a Marine in Multiplayer or heard of Marines discussing the Spartan Skrmishes they do in behind the barracks where they respawn billions of times......like never. I'm just saying it dosen't make sense.
-
Sure it does, but, we say spartans, meaning the effect it is going to have on your player in the game not talking about a story line here
-
I guess ill stick with you on option A but im saying there is a good chance there is only cheif in the story line
-
It says "spartans" prefer. Does this indicate more than one?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] KPaul Yes, multiple Spartans, as in multiplayer.[/quote] Okay, I'm sorry but I'm confused honestly. So Spartans as in multiplayer..........got it. But the next sentence talks about "more tactful marines". So either; A) the mulitiplayer is in canon to the story to some degree, somehow. B) the plain jane marines will be in multiplayer or C) neither and there will be more spartans in the story. One has to be true. I'm going with A.

Hey Fark if you want to see a close up go buy EGMs november issue and there is a pic on pg. 95, There you will get a good look at the nasty can openers on the casing too.
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] AtF I Kaine I Anyone ever notice that the Spike grenade...looks alot like the grenade in Gears of War[/quote] ANYBODY ELSE NOTICE THAT THEY BOTH ARE BASED OFF OF THE [url=http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/31/German_troops_in_Russia%2C_1941.jpg] STIELHANDGRANATE 24 [/url] FROM WORLD WAR II!! Jesus Christ Enough with this Halo 3 and Gears of War crap.
-
“The casing is constructed of an unusual porous metallic compound. Shrapnel from the Type-2 reaches a temperature of approximately 270 to 315ºC and retains that heat for upwards of seven seconds. By design.” From this I dehciper that Halo 3 will be released on Sept 9, 2007. Hint: add it up, it's "By design".
-
all i care about is that it is another weapon to cause violence with >:)
-
36in. long.... Do you guys have a concept drawing of it or maybe even a screenshot.
-
wow GREAT UPDATE....
-
