2007. I suppose I can wait. It'll give me time to save up for a 360...

Seriously though, it's been a chore biting our tongues on this one. Call it a combination of studio secrecy, corporate secrecy, Bill Gates already announcing it four times and, you know, whatever.

Heh.

Get in line in December for this one.

nice... thanks for the post

Wow, the trailer is awesome. The crappy thing is now I'm going to spend 40% of my time trying to figure out all the little crap about the game...there goes my productivity!
I highly recommend checking out the video...

Remember that the trailer does not = final product. The E3 trailer for Halo 2 for example.

Great news guys. I fully plan to play this round so I can hang out with Transcend and H8R.

Did Transcend invite you? I didn't.

Nah - I got the vibe off of your satellite.

 

[Transcend]

No sir, i certainly didn't.

My buddy at E3 called me freaking out about the trailer. I am DLing now on my 360 in sexy HD. MMM, HD halo.

They announced a TON of really cool crap. Rumour at the show is the hd dvd drive will be $100 msrp. Current standalone players are $1000. DAMN.

Well, halo 2 looks like complete crap at 480p compared to the rest of my games running in 1080i. I was floored running it after Ghost recon. I cannot wait for a native 1080i halo.

They announced the wireless headset as well...about time. Now i really need to get the play anc charge kit.

Oh also - We won't ruin the content of our short presentation by describing it frame by frame, but we will note that everything you're seeing here is being rendered in real-time on the Xbox 360, using the current version of our Halo 3 game engine. The HDR lighting, self-shadowing, GPU-run particle system and many other effects should make it intact (and more) to our final game.

That is a good sign. It is not pre rendered via a la gears of war.

When is halo II going to come out for PC?

I think Ghost Recon is one of the better examples of well-done graphics out there. It's not super high-end graphics, but the detail and the atmosphere they create is unreal. I would love to play it on the 360.

I just dled the trailer onto my xbox and unfortunately even though my big tv is only s-video it still looked amazing. I definetly want a hd tv though.

 

[GumbaFish]

I need to either a. get a 360, or b. freakin fix my busted xbox. It has been too long without halo.

What's wrong with it?

 

[GumbaFish]

I'm not sure exactly. The drive won't open properly, and I got a new drive and it still does the same thing. I took it all apart and went over the whole thing and didn't see any loose connections. A buddy of mine had one that broke as well, I think I am going to see if he will let me scavenge parts from it. I think I will try just installing my new dvd drive and hardrive into his existing console. His had a different problem so I think I might be able to get it running again. Its been broken since the end of last summer :mumble:

 

[karpi]

damn I want an xbox 360 and halo 3, it's really the only game that really has me looking forward to getting my hands on

 

[Transcend]

Project gotham 3 and motgo gp 06 are also friggin' incredible. Same goes for Forza 2.

Have you played GRAW yet? That looks pretty awesome, I'd be interested in playing that...

I bought it with my 360.
