Played 2 games of the beta, got 1st place in both. It feels exactly like halo 2, just a new GUI and a couple new weapons. The Spartan Laser is deadly if you can aim it (got a sweet double kill with one.)

It's just a beta I know, but the graphics and animations looked exactly the same to me as Halo 2 did. But, I won't hold that against the game when it's still in beta.

If you enjoyed Halo 2 you probably already preordered this, but yeah, it has retained all the qualities that the 2nd one had, whether that's good or bad is up to you.

If anyone wants to play sometime, I'm down.

Ive been playing the beta everytime I get some free time...

I really didnt care for Halo 2..thought the story sucked...and the thing I hated about the multiplayer is that I was always paired in a game with the jackass always yelling "HA HA HA I SHIT ON YOU"....

The one thing I really love about the new one is that you can finally shut those people up. I dont mind the trash talking but its just those guys that are always doing something to piss everyone off...

I love the new spike grenades...I get tons of kills with those and they are my favorite new weapon....

Basically its the same graphics as Halo 2 (Bungie has confirmed that the graphics will be tweaked a little better in the final version...and a hell of a lot more in the single player)

Weapons are a little more powerful..there is a new spike grenade which I am just in love with. (Kicks major ass if you can attach it to someone...other than that it will just do a little bit of damage)

You can pick up equipment in the game to use during battle like a jump lift (which shoots you in the air)...a power drainer (which drains anyones power that is near it) and the bubble shield (no one can kill you while you are in the shield unless they walk inside to do it)

I have heard there is three levels in the beta but Ive only played at 2...a bunker type place that im pretty good at during sometimes...and then a snow place which I am really bad at.

Halo 1 is poo, should of got 2, and what do you mean the graphics are the same! Go on youtube and watch red vs blue beta complex, or just download off xbl.
Graphics are amazing I think.
Gameplay is more or less the same, but still it is 'mazin'.

I just dropped $20 for this baby. And with it little over a month away, let's recap.

-It drops September 25th.
-There'll be three editions; the standard, and two expensive types for rich losers.
-It supports 4player co-op over XBox Live or System Link (very nice).
-A new mode called Forge lets you play God in a multiplayer match.
-Lockout is back (with a new name and look).
-The Energy Sword has a limited use now (thank you).
-There's a Gravity Hammer that knocks grenades away (interesting).
-There'll be a file-sharing service of sorts for saved replays and map edits.

I had no prob with Halo 2 so I'll be loving this game.

I finally picked up the first halo. Got through the first level, started the second. Not overly impressed so far. Goldeneye for N64 is better.

Halo 2 went by way to fast. I'll wait till I hear reviews and if it's long enough to not be able to be beat in 2-3 days.

How in god's name is goldeneye better? I mean GE was amazing for it's time, don't get me wrong but the first Halo(while still overrated) blows away Goldeneye. Only thing goldeneye has over halo, is that there are too many areas in the the single player campaign of halo, where you go room to room, and any difference from the last is subtle.

That said, the better graphics, vehicle use, and A.I. top goldeneye. Especially the A.I. Enemies flnk you, take cover, and even retreat. What do they do in goldeneye? Oh yeah, they make a two foot sidestep at stroke victim speed.

I've seen the "goldeneye > halo" comment made a few times now by halo haters, and it makes no sense to me. Despite my rant, I'm not a fanboy. In fact I believe halo is probly the most overrated franchise in videogame history. But worse than goldeneye? Well thats just retarded.

I got Halo for the multiplayer when I was in my first year of uni. Basically since we were on campus we could have massive battles with my mates over the network, which was awesome because there was never any lag at all.

But I got hooked to the single player soon after and about 5 months later I completed the game on legendary

There is no better combo than a Sniper Rifle, Battle Rifle, 2 Frags, and regular use of your radar.

I refuse to post a link though because god knows the minute I post a link im gonna get crap for ruining something for people when it was their decision to look at it...they had to click on the link or hit play yet I will get the backlash for posting it.

Unless you play MLG rules, which restricts radar in most types. Honestly can't stand playing with radar after playing MLG gametypes for so long.

That sells it.

I don't really care one way or another, TBH. I just came in here to see how many people were like "Halo 2 sucked but OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG this is gonna be awesome."

I can go with or without Radar. It's my suggestion to learn how to play on both terms. And the new radar jamming device in Halo 3 would be useless if no one had Radar to begin with, and I personally like the added layer of strategy (Crouch Walk, keeping proximity, etc).

I was thinking of getting a 360 Elite for a few games on the original Xbox (I'm stupid enough to have no clue if it has backwards compatability with Xbox 1 games or not), but this was not one of them. Personally, I don't know what is the huge deal with the Halo thing (multiplayer, I know, but I like to do the single player, too).

Personally, I think Halo 3 is going to be good and won't make the hype in vain, but there's alot of competition now that Bungie needs to consider if people want to choose one game over the other.

I would love to see what reviews of the game will be.

It's not out to redefine FPS' or anything. The Saved Films will be awesome though. I don't think I'll be messing with Forge too much. This game will have insane replay value, it will be played heavily for the remainder of this console cycle if Halo 1 and 2 is any indication. And I'm not a sucker for hype, we were having Halo LAN parties before Halo was cool, back when it was a that weird PC-ported shooter that came with the Xbox Bundle. Now every release in the series is some sort've holiday. I don't mind, but posers are annoying. Then these very posers bitch and nag about how Halo wasn't what they thought it was or how they get creamed by better players and the game blows because of just that.

Plain and simple: Read the damn reviews on the past two Halo games, or try them out even. If it doesn't sound like what you want, don't even try it. If it doesn't play like what you want, make no future purchase in the game series. I'll tell you right now Halo 3 is essentially Halo Uncut, as Bungie as stated the new features were actually cut features from the last games on any number of occasion. The single player is what they wanted the first single player to be, and the multiplayer is what they wanted part two's multiplayer to be. Other than that; if you didn't like Halo in the past, you will not be turned by Halo 3.

It's just a damn FPS. Like how Rock Band is a music game and Zelda TP is an Action RPG. Whether they mean more to you is based on what you're looking for in a videogame. Forget hype, do some research, be an educated consumer. I wouldn't drop $60 over 'fantastic ads'.

And no I'm not taking shots at you, darkpower, I was just reminded of an old debate and I thought I'd reiterate my feelings.

Halo parties were tits. Used to go to multiple friends houses for huge Halo parties. One friend used to have 16-man games almost every day. He was also ranked 13th in the world at Halo 1. He's played with the Ogre brothers, Zios, and a ton of other top players. He's the reason I actually like Halo 2 a lot now, because he helped me get a lot better at it. His team (FtG) has two people who play/used to play at the big MLG tourneys yearly. One is Foxy, who people might recognize if they follow the MLG circuit at all. She's crazy good at it. The other is mightBwhite, who no longer plays at MLG but is a veritable god at the game.

I can't wait for Halo 3 to come out. Been watching videos non-stop this past week and I'm wanting it more and more every day.

Shaggy. Make sure your HD cables aren't loose and are plugged in. It gives a ring if they come undone.
