HALO 3 Official Thread

Finished the game earlier on normal, was impressed with single player mode. Now time to do it on legendary!
 
Checked ebay just now, tons of legendarys going for sale, cheapest ive seen on buy it now £125, most expensive £200. All that for a plastic helmet. :eek:

One of thems claiming the us version will work on uk consoles. Would have though it would be region locked like any other game. :confused:

MS dont region lock games, they leave it up to the publisher to decide if a game should be region locked. about 90% iirc games are not region locked
 
wtf, lol, erm there was credits when i played on normal and then a 2/3 min video after that then went back to menu. Dont want to say what it was but lets just say it was important and rather :cool:

i saw the "standard" ending, then Bungie thanks message then bong! Menu - i was on Co-Op though? Hmm ill investigate after work
 
On the graphics front, anyone else think that the cut scenes are a bit like the 'picture mode' in PGR'3 ie tweaked heavily? Playing co op my mate said during one cut scene "Now THATS what the game should look like!" Have to say i agreed. The biggest let down visually was the floor/wall textures etc One tunnel we drove a warthog through a few times (on account of some MS update that kept kicking one of our party) looked like it had climbed off a 3dfx card, no joke!

The problem is, couple the sketchy visuals with the poor level design and repetetive mission structure and its hard to give the game good comments. The multiplayer , however, looks astonishing!
 
The cut scenes will just be mpegs and will have a lot of post processing done on them. I thought that was standard practice in a lot of games.

IMO it is better to have the cut scenes match the visuals of the engine rather than jump all over the place between great cut scenes and mediocre in game visuals*

I haven't played Halo 3 yet, that is just my opinion on all games :)
 
the legendary box set is quite impressive. :)

Crikey that's massive :eek:

Should easily be able to fit a small cat in that :p
 
Cat sized helmet? I've never come across any cats with heads as big as that.

Why oh why couldnt I have been born a midget with a tiny head :(
