[360] Halo Kitty

Personally, how much it's being hyped, I'm hoping that it doesn't dissappoint. The list of weapons doesn't really get me too excited either b/c original I heard that they might be bringing back the original Pistol and the Original AR as well, which I personally liked better then the H2 version of them. (Scope-Pistol was way better then that magnum crap that they gave us in Halo2)

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

Just letting you know, dumbass, but printers produce MUCH finer images than displays ever could.

You got a single digit IQ there son? Holy shit.

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

Gonna hook my 360 up to my printer, brb.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Oh man, you got one of those fancy new Lexmarks that prints on 1080i paper, and can do so at 60 sheets a second? I'm totally jealous.

How ya doing, buddy?

FELIPE NO

OH MY BAD I TOTALLY MEANT PROGRESSIVE SCAN PAPER.

But to use it you need to hook up your fancy new printer with those expensive Monster Cable brand Component or HDPI (High Definition Printer Interface) cables, and those are almost as expensive as the paper itself.

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

You win this time, Skills.

Parting shot: Enjoy your Snow AIDS, you fricken Frappe Snowlander.

How ya doing, buddy?

Im glad im not the only one who thought that statement was "lol" worthy when I read it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Ehm, actually, a printed magazine version of a screenshot will almost never look as good as the original shot, especially for games. Who knows what preprocessing/resizing was applied to the image, what DPI they used when printing the magazine, how did they edit the picture so it fits in the article (color/gamma, 'shopping) etc.

I'm positive that the game WILL look much better then the shots you saw.

I mean, unless, they used some of those ludicrous 6400x3600 shots when making the article, like the render screengrabs they released for the E3 demo.

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

I often find as well that screen shots in magazines are taken from NTSC versions of games which are naturally ugly compared to PAL ones. Not an issue in the new HD era but made a big difference on the PS2...

ARGHHHH
CG Halo 3 trailer

:biggrin:

I was speaking idiomatically.

And the HD trailer is up on gametrailers too.

Looking good for a prerendered teaser.
Now looking forward to seeing some gameplay, or at least something else than small cutscenes.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

What exactly is he doing in that trailer? I'm referring to the "throw grenade into the sand for apparently no reason" bit.

FELIPE NO

Shield grenade.

Basically it looks like it creates in an invincible shield for a fraction of a second. A very neat idea.

Also worth speculating is that the big X button thing is a sprint. If it worked like the Roadie Run in Gears, that'd be pretty sweet. (IE, you can't really turn very sharply, you can't shoot while doing it, etc.)

How ya doing, buddy?

Seems like he's making a dust cover to add a bit of surprise to when he'll jump them. Only he runs out of it forever :/

When he jumps into the group of aliens, the one in the middle looks like a Brute with a big hammer and a shield. New melee weapons then? I was hoping they'd have killed off the Brutes to be honest, I didn't really think they added much to game personally.

How ya doing, buddy?

Im starting to get hyped up for Halo again.

Did anyone read in Game Informer about a demo being released on Marketplace? They said it would be the only demo you would have to pay for, and its supposed to be a way to keep attention off the new consoles.

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

I loved how the field where the two kids were talking turned into the battlefield. I wonder if one of them was John?

Damn, I loved that too. Especially with using the helmet as a transition. And of course the "Chief...leave me..!" line.

Most popular guess is that it's John (MC) and Kelly (Another spartan that he was with during early training)

Sorry, no scans, but it is in the December 2006 issue (number 164) page 40 under the title "Halo 3 Demo coming soon."

It reads:

After the release of Halo 2, Microsoft was very vocal about releasing something Halo-related at the launch of the rival Sony's Playstation 3. Although we know that Halo 3 isnt ready yet, Game Informer Online has heard that Bungie is readying a Demo for the first half of next year, with an announcement on November 17 to blunt the debut of the PS3. Microsoft wont comment on the rumor, but there also is speculation that this demo will be the first one which Microsoft charges for via Xbox Live.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Charging for a demo? How incredibly lame.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Man, I'm loving the new trailer. The video looks awesome and I has gotten me completely trusting that the hype is not just hype that this game is going to be good when it comes out.

The shield nade looks like an awesome weapon but the question is if they're going to use it or if it's just eye candy that they're using?

FELIPE NO

Another question is how would you use it? Would you just throw it and have a shield pop up where it lands, or would you automatically throw it at your feet deku nut style. Both ways would be useful.

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

Shield is cool, but what about online play? It would be cool if you could protect a team mate aswell, what about if everyone chucks one and create some uber shield.

Just need some clarification need anyone else hear Cortana's voice, just after the girl finishes talking and MC is putting back his helmet. The first voice that comes on the radio, followed then the commander's, then a solider's!?!!? All I hear is "Chief..."


I made some quick wallpaper if any needs a new one. Click in the space to right of the image to open.






variations of version 2



-No logo, no clouds, no plasma ball.



-No logo, no clouds, no plasma ball, more images from teaser trailer.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Don't put your username/URL on a wallpaper, you cock. It's incredibly egotistical and VERY fucking antisocial considering you're just rebranding another person's graphics work. Nobody wants their desktop branded by MasterChief19963409589. Honestly, why?

So what's this about the Chief's face I've been hearing about? I've seen screencaps, but it just looks like a rorschach blot.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I wanna see his face. Fuck all this "you are the chief" bullshit.
