in the original trailer they called themselves (kat)sierra 320 and (carter)sierra 259, like MC (john)sierra 117 making them part of the spartanII project correct? as well as class 1 being only numbered from 001-150, so it could be class II unknown
spartan III's classify themselve through companie name and then their number
also, halo.wikia has them as spartan II's lol, i was starting to get confused because their numbers WERE above 150 making me think otherwise
did you skip through the cutscenes or something, it had a great story...gameplay (on legendary, with 3 other friends) was also enjoyable
as for op...yup, no beta for you, and if you sold it once and rather quickly(?) doubt you would buy it again huh
actually, didnt john 117 see the next batch of spartans being trained in the fall of reach novel?
and cant believe it slipped my mind that these were in fact spartan III (except jorge spartanII)...with them not showing the main characters face, i was thinking that it was john, but i guess not
EDIT: starting to change my mind again from what someone below pointed out about class II spartan II's
dont get me wrong, im not trying to downplay what was in the trailer, it was visually stunning...i was just talking about the lack of action
and yes...ill say it again, i cant wait for this game to come out...im a big halo fan (not fanboy ;P) and still looking for every bit of info i can
btw...did you guys notice the halo 1(i think) pistol on his right thigh or the new br/assault rifle with scope on his back :D i cant wait long enough :(
edit: @below......
crackdown was never about having great graphics, it was supposed to have a comic book superhero type feel, which it pulled off and was an overall fun game to play (only played the demo, but had a blast playing it)
guys z-hayden is right tho...this was a very good looking trailer, but wasnt too "exciting" cause it was just a cutscene
loving the look so far and boy did the elite bring a huge smile to my face :D i cant wait...bring on the beta bungie!!
EDIT - i agree with everyone recommending the HD version on b.net...other videos just wont do the trailer justice
hmm...didnt even notice that they chose to make it 7 stories...with 7 being bungies favorite little number and all
what i mean is that zonetrooper seems to still be questioning as to whether or not its a cutscene, thats why i was asking arent they the same thing, cause if they are the same thing and bungie says that its a 2 and a half min cinematic, wouldnt that be saying that its a 2 and a half min cutscene, thus putting an end to the question of whether or not its a cut scene, live action or cg footage
edit: whoops, this was supposed to be a reply to 2.2
you're either still real young or english isnt your native tongue...in any case you must be talking about graphics
i hope you arent a sony fan that has been spoiled by the recent display in amazing graphics that you are blinded in thinking it should be graphics over gameplay
im not saying that killzone 2 or uncharted 2 had bad gameplay, just merely pointing out that if REACH didnt have awesome graphics but awesome story and gameplay then there shouldnt be much of a ...
wow...what a trip, for a quick second, i thought that either i couldnt comprehend what i was reading if my life depended on it or that the article has some of the most terrible writing in an article that i have seen in quite some time, then i noticed it was translated by google *phew* lol
on topic:
i wonder what is the record for the most glitches from a single released game
isnt cut scene and cinematic kinda one in the same with regards to games? honestly asking
@lou - why you adding MS' faults into dragging down bungie?
"They wouldn't have released a console 3 years before it was ready."
-bungie had nothing to do with releasing the 360
"If they cared about quality they wouldn't charge $60 bucks for ODLC"
-pretty sure MS made the price become 60 instead of the original 20-30 intended WHEN FIRST ANNOUNCED a couple years/months before release
"If they cared about quality, they ...
i dont want to overhype this for myself...i AM extremely excited for this game and am grasping for every little bit of info i can (even tuning into the waypoint everyday hoping that they would release a small bit of exclusive info for those ppl that DO tune in everyday...sadly none so far, but rvb, halo legends and top 5 are always entertaining)
the thing is, for me, knowing the book (or remembering as much as i can of it) i dont think the game can still fully grasp the moment of...
@D4RkNIKON - just curious (not trying to attack you) what about the video specifically didnt appeal to you
i personally think that no ONE console can win the war unless they make the opponents completely drop out which i highly doubt will happen
will sony WIN the console war? i wouldnt put it that way
will sony TAKE THE LEAD in the console war? most likely
the thing is tho...isnt wii winning the console war sales wise? i do think, however, that the ps3 is winning quality wise as of recent...im waiting on 360 exclusives tho, nothing appealing me right now and ...
wow...quit hating on games, thats like saying no one should ever play the original mario games or any other classic game cause they arent hd
hell, i occasionally go back to my n64 and play some zelda games BECAUSE THEY ARE FUN...quit thinking that graphics is all a game should be about
halo 3 has plenty of replayablity, takes longer than 5 hours to beat on legendary with any skulls to make it atleast fun (i think you were thinking about ODST) and doesnt even look lik...
im getting confused now...are they using the xengine or not?
what "I" thought was that xengine was built by microsoft to fully utilize xbox 360's power, but that bungie had their own newly built engine (different from xengine) for halo reach...again im not saying my stuff is fact, just that this is what I always thought
does someone know what they actual deal is with the new engine?
@SasanovaS1987 - so your wondering why they are bringing in the same characters when its in a specific universe (halo universe)? thats like saying why do they keep using kratos in a GoW game, always spitting out the same thing
@kigmal - actually, before odst came out, there was this little live action teaser thingy online where you could see an interviewing of the 3 of the odst characters (real unknown actors) and bios of the characters...buck and romeo (i think it was romeo) wer...
thats what i was wondering when i heard that...its it spartan kelly or just an odst named kelly
and yea, they still didnt show us HIS face :S
you mean twice as being a lot?
