Will it offer anything besides prettier graphics than Halo 2?

That's what I'm wondering....

it seems like it'll be the last one in the series.

So it's a trilogy in that case. Ah well, good things come to an end.

P.S.

Free renders too :P

Remember its only the first trailer, also yes it is the last one in the trilogy.

I think Bungie mentioned new stuff but i'm not to sure.

They said there will be new weapons and you can play as the master chief and that invisible bloke you could be in Halo 2

Yea they did, but I forgot. They also made a console, the Pippin or something like that.

Btw bradas, you are right, we're both looking forward to this :D

I'm a big Halo fan..but this didn't impress me yet. I hope it gets better since its just a first trailer.

Meh, the trailor looked alright. It looks as if it's just going to be a shinnier version of the other Halos. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Thats what it looked like to me as well. I just don't want Halo 2.5....I want Halo 3. but its still early

Yeah, chances are they will put something new in. I always thought about how awesome it would be if there was some kind of free roaming in Halo. I doubt it would happen but if so it would be quite awesome.

Yea i'm floating around Bungie's forum and they have excellent ideas, and horrible ones but its too early to see what Bungie is thinking. But i hope they have bring the atv idea back before like they did before they took it out of halo 2 at the last minute.

Burial Mounds with ATV before Halo 2 Came out:

ATV Model:

Hopefully it'll be in with some weaopon attachments or a 2 rider ATV for just some variety. Imagine how much fun that'll be in Live especially if they make a map like burial grounds like the one above. Say good bye to Hog Wars.

Right now for halo 2 is 16, hopefully it'll be bigger like 32 or even 64 like maps 3 times bigger than coagulation and stuff.

And yea the ATV is hot. Theres also a boat model

that'll be so awesome. Some water transportation and maybe the pelican can be in one of thos huge maps I wish about.

EDIT: Another Pic of the ATV:

Whoa, that's sick!
Guessing that's the Pc version of halo :(

The trailer didn't BLOW me away, but its nice thinking I have something to look forward too :D
Didn't really revel much too, Just that Master Chief found the convenat base...
And he's also holding the machine gun from Halo 1? That's odd....

And does anyone else thing the one whos talking is cortona?

First off its similar to the assault rifle but it isnt, probably a remake which is good the 3 shot pistol from H1 sucked and I hope they keep the BR from H2 because it was actually good. Also Chief didnt find the Covenant base, its the Arc and the covvy is going for it, perhaps they're all trying stop it. Expect Halo 3 to be full of the Flood everywhere :p. And ya thats cortana talking as you can the holographic blue woman :p. Also the ATV was origionally going make it to Halo but Bungie took it out at the last second and no it isnt for Halo PC but maybe there are mods for it. Hopefully it comes with Halo 2 PC if not, Mod City here I come :).

I hope you'll be able to link up to the surviving SPARTAN-IIs and control them is squad based play on some levels (contrary to popular belief some did survive reach read first strike eric nylund) and also to play in a separate campagin as kelly (another spartan kidannapped by dr hasley the creator of the spartans for some secret mission again read first strike)

I hope the return of the other spartans are back but near the end as like the Final Epic. Also no 4 based squad, this isn't regular war games. Halo has to feel Haloish. Hopefully we have more playablle models like the Brute or Hunter :D.

Halo 3 Multiplayer Being Tested

Frankie over at Bungie reports in that the Bungie crew are playing regular Halo 3 multiplayer sessions nearly every day now. The Bungie folks have also gotten there hands on a single player mission.

"Paul Bertone, one of our lead designers, let us play something that blew our minds. That was single player, and from a mission very early in the game. And one that takes place before the events seen in the E3 trailer, but Lars, one of the new(er) multiplayer designers, has a regular multiplayer test in session now - that happens every day - and with surprisingly polished-looking graphics, although I'm told a lot of the textures and decorator objects are just placeholder at the moment. Could have fooled me.

The multiplayer test lab is still packed full of old-school 4:3 480i NTSC TV sets, which tells you two things. One is that we're making sure this game looks awesome on non HD sets, and two, that there is always a crazy rush to get to the sets that are HD during those sessions."

Damn Bungie and their internal play-testing. Just friggin put that beta out on Marketplace, we'll help them out with a few run throughs. —Brian Crecente
