While surfing around on the Bungie site, I came up on a new employee's Blog of sorts and came across this and I quote "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." Maybe halo 3 is further along than we think.

Im sure loyal Halo fans scope the Bungie site regularly, but this is more for the sony fanboys to let them know that Halo 3 is on its way. Unregistered - famo 05.22.2006 12:57 With GOW releasing October I would doubt Halo3 to release before March 07 but MS could have a trick up their sleeves and might release this sooner.. Holiday season 06 would make the most sense but not likely. I knew this game was alot further along then they said and I believe a long time ago their was an article saying it was done and getting ready to ship.. I think that was a rumor but we all knew it was in development since Halo2 came out!! I know GOW is a good game to launch right before PS3 launch but this game would be better w/ the announcment of free online gameing!! Also the trailer at E3 look awsome so that was actual confirmation of the game being further than they said.. MS might have a big surprise ahead for all 360 owners and TGS could be when its announced b/c Sony is always trying to put on a huge show for the home crowd. I guess we will all see and Its my opinion so don't flame! Unregistered - Big Moe 05.22.2006 16:54 The Bottom Line is that we know Halo 3 is being made, we know it'll be out sometime in 2007, and we definately know it's gonna kick a**. Unregistered - Big Moe 05.22.2006 17:00 I'm hoping for several things in Halo 3. 1. Bring back the scope on the pistol! 2. Keep the Battle Rifle 3. Get rid of the sword 4. Get rid of plasma pistol... makes it too easy for Noobs with no aim. 5. Need a better system for online play... way too many bridgers, standbyers, boosters, and modders. 6. Need a better story line than Halo 1 which was awesome... if it's worse than 2's I'll break my disk and crap on it. They have plenty of time to get this right, I'd rather they didn't rush it! FreeMonk 05.22.2006 21:44 My two cents on #4 comments: 1. Bring back the scope on the pistol! Yep, no issue with that! 2. Keep the Battle Rifle - Yeah, I loved the battle rifle, but they should also bring back the Assualt rifle as well. Best of both worlds. 3. Get rid of the sword - Nope, I think they should keep the sword, but limit it's power. 3-4 hits before it breaks, just like the single player game. That way, it will respawn, and the other team have a chance to grab it, instead of sword whores who just sit in a corner! 4. Get rid of plasma pistol... makes it too easy for Noobs with no aim. - Disagree with this entirely. I think it should stay in, but just tone down the homing of the plasma a little. Take the homing away, and then let it roll! 5. Need a better system for online play... way too many bridgers, standbyers, boosters, and modders - A little hard to mod when you can't chip the 360. Standbyers are a problem, but Bungie has nearly eliminated that issue now. No way to stop Boosters unless the Rank system disappears, or remains invisable. 6. Need a better story line than Halo 1 which was awesome... if it's worse than 2's I'll break my disk and crap on it. - The story was ok on Halo 2, but what miffed people off was that it was too short, and that it ended abruptly. If they added another 1-2 levels, finished the story off ok, with somewhere to go with Halo 3, people would be fine with it. The only disappointment with Halo 2 was that they promised an Earth Battle, but it didn't happen. This is something that will DEFINATLY happen in Halo 3! Unregistered - pshizle 05.22.2006 22:01 -i want them to bring back the assualt rifle!!! -there should be a overshield that does not lower shields for plasma weapons...plasma pistol!!! -needlers should come at the person more faster at and bit powerful...you can shoot them fast just by pressing the two triggers -needler grenade would be amazing -shotgun should have more range so it can be equal with the sword -the grenades in halo2 are not as good as the orinal HALO bring back halo nades -story better than HALO! -amazing AI with amazing battles -overall the guns are weak & bungie needs to bring some new and sweet weapons -fix the cheating... -there should be servers for certain levels so theres no boosting example is a game called gunbound ...havent played that game since i was 12 good game for the kids very addictive! CAN YOU GUYS ADD TO THE LIST =) Unregistered - pshizle 05.22.2006 22:03 -sword in multiplayer should be just like the single so the energy runs out more therefore noobs dont always use the sword! FreeMonk 05.22.2006 22:19 Also, you should have a melee attack with the Needler. When you get up close and personal with an enemy, you can smack them with the needler, but the needles stick into your enemy, and explode. Depending on how many needles you manage to stick into your enemy, depends on how much energy they lose. It comes at a cost though, because obviously, you'll have to reload, and if your enemy is still standing, it could cause a problem. Little thing like that would be fun! Unregistered - George 05.23.2006 02:29 1. Bring back the AssaultRifle with new cool features, along with the Battlerifle 2. More open enviroments like Halo 1 3. Bring back some old classic maps from Halo 1 for example, Hang 'em High, and Sindewinder etc. 4. Bring back the old pistol from Halo 1 but take out the scope and add a new design to it, make it more sexy. 5. Enemies should not speak english! take that sh1t out please. 6. I love the music from Halo 1 and Halo 2 should have the same music! 7. Don't make Halo 3 feel like if it was a movie! cause Halo 1 didn't have that feeling please. It should feel more like a game. 6. I felt that the rocket launcher from Halo 2 was a little too slow, please dont make the same mistake. 7. Plasma mistol shouldn't be weak it should be a deadly weapon, not just to take your enemies shield. 8. Water affects should look real not fake. 9. The sword should have a time limit to the point where you can't use it, because it gets annoying in multiplayer. If you guys don't understand what I am saying use the sword on story mode. 10. don't add cover to the game because this not a realistic shooting game like GRAW, or Rainbow. 11. and downloable content should be free. 12. the shut gun was better in Halo 1! fix it!! 13. and finally EVERY GUN SHOULD BE USEFUL, because the pistol from Halo 2 is useless unless your an SMG with it! or a plasma pistol. make it feel powerful like Halo 1. Unregistered - George 05.23.2006 02:34 Also, I don't like how you reload the SMG change that to , or make it feel more realistic maybe a little slower? like the the battlerifle, or the sniper rifle. man ... if only I worked for BUNGIE Halo 3 would be a perfect game.
