"The animation's the same on masterchief."
As with most of the visuals, those are some of the last things Bungie adds to the game. For Halo 2, they were throwing in new animations all throughout the month before release. So we can probably expect an upgrade in visuals over the next 6 months.
"Can anyone tell me some major differences in gameplay...looks exactly the same. "
The gameplay is why people love Halo. If you're looking for a drastic ch...
sorry
Looks fine here:

And it's only gonna get better.
Couldn't tell by this footage, but I had a hunch after playing the Forza demo... Went back and looked at some old HD vids of PGR3 and Forza 2, and I can't believe it, but honestly, PGR3 looks better. Not sure why, but it might have to do with the lack of motion blur. For whatever reason, the Forza 2 demo doesn't seem to have it (or maybe I'm just missing something)
mellowspaz-- Not sure if that's right, but if it IS the 60 fps that's causing the graphics to disappoint, then wha...
I tried to copy and paste into Word so I could do a word count, but it crashed my computer.
Doesn't need any further explanation than that.
Those rocket explosions were awesome! They looked/sounded violent as hell! I probably watched that first explosion 5 times in a row.
That said, the graphics still aren't good enough, but I don't think it's cause for concern yet. The main reason--Because this footage looks EXACTLY the same (in fact, a little less-polished) than the leaked vid from several months ago.

IF an actual article/news story were to be posted on this subject, shouldn't the headline at least be a little more fitting? Perhaps something like this:
"We all know the PS3 is more powerful, so why do Xbox gfx look better?"
That seems a more reasonable question to ask, since a PS3 title is yet to approach Gears of War visuals.
And besides, don't the rules on this site say that random forum posts don't count as news anyway?
Don't get me wrong, I love playing retro, old school, nostalgic titles. TMNT arcade is a classic, and I'm fully satisfied with that purchase.
But just like what happened with Contra, I booted up DD and found that it was NOTHING like the NES version I grew up with! Very, very, very disappointing...
The Betalicious gameplay isn't HD, but all their other movies have been-- announcement trailer, vidocs, etc...
At Bungie, they've been play-testing the game on HD monitors for quite a while now (Frankie has mentioned it in prior updates). So I think it's pretty safe to assume the Beta will be at least 720p... At least it better be!
And the Beta hasn't even come out yet...
cause if true, definitely a nail in the coffin.
It'd be interesting to compare these sales with those in US and Europe. No way Nintendo has THAT kind of margin everywhere!
Those are some ridiculous numbers. The Wii looks like it would sell more in two weeks than the 360 would all year (a month and a half for the PS3's year).
Seriously should have bought some Nintendo stock...
But will definitely be picking this one up!
but most will not be seen this gen. The processing power just isn't quite there yet: especially since both consoles use in-order execution, instead of the more flexible out-of-order used in pcs and the original xbox...
Interesting list, but off the top of my head, there's one more thing that should be added for the "next-gen"
-- Games don't just have destructible environments, but living, breathing, fully interactive ones where all surfaces and objects are giv...
Classic title. Can't wait to load this up just to listen to the music again. (DD1 and 2 had some of my favorite soundtracks on the NES)
But please--Be the same Double Dragon I remember. Don't pull another Contra!
Marionz-- 15 minutes??? I don't think I ever even beat the game.
Havince-- Pretty sure the download includes the original game, as well as a graphically enhanced version.
I agree with Feral Phoenix: Almost every preview I ever read always seems desperate to look at the "bright side," no matter how terrible the game actually is... It's good to see a preview that actually mentions the good AND the bad (though in Forza 2's case, there seems to be a whole lot more of the former)
As for the driver-seat view: EVERY racing game should have it! The first time I saw it in PGR3, it blew me away. The realism was unprecedented, and was the first t...
The same could be said about GTA4 articles that talk about new weapons/gameplay... Instead of a warning label, how about a more generic headline? I wouldn't be opposed to something like "New Halo 3 Equipment Revealed" (**SPOILER** warnings for every game could get annoying though.)
I wouldn't get too worried about stuff like this---Bungie's already stated that they're holding a lot of features back. The Beta's really just a taste of what's to come. The final game won'...
Yup. Halo 3 Beta's going to be HD and absolutely gorgeous.

"I can tell you honestly at this point, we have not changed the game in any form with the idea of 'oh, we got to do this on 360.' Put aside whether or not we're developing for 360 or not, the game is built on the PS3 hardware, as you guys have known for the past two years or so."
The statement isn't a confirmation or denial, but if I had to guess which way it leans (in regards to MGS4 coming to 360), it certainly seems nearer to confirmation.
