It looks awesome.

It actually looks really awesome...

It does. And they're bringing back a uber Halo CE like pistol! With a silencer!

People aren't going to be too happy when they go back to Halo 3 MP with no Halo CE pistol.

That is pretty awesome..

Yes..... but it will be awesome on the campaign.

It kinda of a let down compared to what bungie told us, they said it would be less direct and you just cant run in and rape everything like in H3, you have to ambush pick them off on by one, shit like that. But it seems that the weapons own ass, and you dont die easy but it I cant really decide for sure now, I mean only two 2 minute videos that barley showed any battles. I like the wraith puzzle thing, kinda cool.

I'm sure it was on an easy diffculty, and you have to remember, they were fighting in a low light area.

Personally, I wish this game was a full one with multiplayer and all the works. Sad thing, as that won't happen.

Their focusing primarily on the campaign, and to be honest I think that is a good thing. Halo 3's story and campiagn was pretty weak.

Not to mention it would take another 3 years to ship

Yes I do believe Campaign is very important, even more so in this.

But I don't think multiplayer would hurt.. Although I do think it would get a bit 'uncreative' in a MP for this game.

They announced the Release date. 22nd September 2009.

Cool. I know my birthday present.

E: Just watched the cutscene trailer, why the hell is a SPARTAN there?

I've taken notice (And don't call me an idiot, I know it is a expansion)

That alot of everything was added from Halo2 & 3 to this game. Maybe they did a few remodelings on some units, but most look the same, especially brutes. Drones looked a bit different, more silver/ white.

There wasn't...

That looks epic.

And about the battle in the one video, remember that the player had low light vision while the enemies did not.

So there was picture of a SPARTAN in Recon armor taped to the side?

what the hell is a spartan with a recon helmet doing on that screen in the drop pod!

game looks good

Also if you noticed the pistol is not nearly as strong as the halo ce one. It just happens to have a scope. Also it seams to be automatic.

It's not a spartan. She(I think) is an ODST with a recon helmet. I suppose she is part of a recon team.

If they made it excatly like the Halo CE one, people would complain about it not being in MP.

it could be in multiplayer but only on specific maps..... think about it

So, they give you the Halo CE pistol for only certain maps?

Even more people would complain...

people complain about everything, people are going to complain that they aren't playing as the MC then people are gonna complain that your using silenced weapons in a shoot em up game.

Hell people are gonna complain no matter what a game is like. the best solution is to make the game and hell with anything they should be appreciative they are getting a scoped pistol back. I mean really we still haven't flown a pelican yet but people aren't killing themselves over it.

who the fuck is recon?
