[360] Halo Kitty

I watched it and I already want a 360.

I'm sorry, FFXIII and MGS4 ain't got shit on this. Best trailer of the show, without question. Wonder when they'll have gameplay footage.

How ya doing, buddy?

We all know you just want to shape one like a dick.

The new trailer looks fantastic, but I'm having trouble telling how much of that is the fanboy in me talking. Either way it made me want a 360 all the more (as I'm almost certain to by one by the time H3 comes out).

I also thought the Arms Race teaser was awesome. I want one of those replica pistols.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

halol 1 in general broke many conventions and was all the better for it. The complete lack of a boss fight (blowing the ship's engines was fun though) was wonderful and I personally loved the warthog finale, no matter how many times I die in it.

2 on the other hand had not one, but THREE boss fights, all of which were the "shoot him twice and then wait/avoid fire till you are allowed to shoot him twice again" kind that made them completely awful.

It's a feature I hope won't return in 3. You can make boss fights, but build them to be consistent with the rest of the game.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Could be the switch for the flashlight or the ammo display, or a bright green reload button, if you want to think that far.

I was speaking idiomatically.

With CGI brutes, Banshees, Pelicans and Spiker rounds. Imagine that!

Whoa, what? Is that Neill Blomkamp's handywork? Holy crap, color me very surprised. If they did the whole movie in this style, it might be some really special.

I do want to see a direct feed, tho.

Most amazing jew boots

God damn that looks good. Using the game score is a great move too.

I can't wait for a hi-res version I can download =o

EDIT:
Gamersyde has slightly bigger res

Haw, I love gametrailers.

They have the higher-res version there and downloadable <3

The Spartans were fairly vulnerable in the books compared to Master Chief in the game, but I liked that added realism. That said, I don't expect comics to be completely consistent, but even 3 fuel-rod shots should mess up any character in the series really bad.

But then the previous graphic novel was hardly consistent. A Spartan doesn't just up and quit to start a family

Jam it back in, in the dark.

So Famitsu scored Halo 3　10/9/9/9

Let the bakkles begin

Definitely play the first one, it's still a phenomenal videogame.

I enjoyed 2 for most part, but it's nowhere near as enjoyable and well designed as 1, a tad too many levels I don't want to replay, ever.

No, but they stopped playing UT2k3.

I think it would be fairer to say people won't stop playing Halo 1 (multiplayer and campaign) with 3 out~

But yeah, people will still play H2, just like people keep playing older versions of Counter-Strike (ooh, did I just go there).

How ya doing, buddy?

Just dropping in to say I just finished it on Heroic. I started yesterday, I think it took me about 12 hours gameplay time, so any complaints about a short game are uncalled for.

Loved the ending. Almost missed the last cutscene as I accidentally pressed B during the end credits (I thought the thank you message at the start needed to be skipped to move forward), but then decided to replay the last half of the final level anyway.

I thought it was a very satisfying finish for the trilogy and the wonderful nods to 1 (the environments, blowing up reactors, warthog finale) almost brought a tear to my eye.

How ya doing, buddy?

I finished it on Heroic and saw a post-credits cutscene. If there's an extra one of Legendary, that's a different matter.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Cortana map drove me insane when I was playing on my own, I freaking hated those spider things that run along wars and shoot shit at you.

To be honest, despite the massive increase in battles and enemy numbers, I felt the game was a tad easier than 1, since you often had an invinsible AI partner with you, so if you wanted to weasel it, you could just hang back and let him hack and slash everyone.

FELIPE NO

I can't remember how many times I was climbing the first scarab to reach the weak spot for massive damage and I get shot by the second scarab's death beam outta nowhere.

I also had my warthog stepped on once during the level, really took my by surprise but I couldn't contain my lolling.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Then you immediately run back up to your mongoose and use the big hill that is next to the second scarab to ramp the mongoose over it, at which point you jump off onto it. The scarabs basically don't even know what hit them it happens so quick.

I think I might do that again tonight so I can get some sweet screenshots of it.

Yeah, I played the level driving a warthog, and while I saw a few other AI controlled vehicles driving around, I didn't really think I could have driven those for that section. I need to check on a later replay if I can try a different vehicle. That's one of the great things about the game (and 1, I guess), how you don't always realize you have so many ways of tackling even the more set up and scripted battles.

I personally can't wait to see the speedruns for 3, shoving vehicles through gaps to go beyond points you were supposed to take by foot, etc.
