so in case there is a Halo fan on the planet who hasn't seen the Halo 3 E3 trailer, check it out.
I got a kick out of the fact that they chose "Finish the Fight" as the tag line for Halo 3. my second Halo book was called Halo 2 Hacks: Tips and Tricks for Finishing the Fight.
as for the my general feeling about the trailer, it lacked any substance whatsoever. this is fine, but the goal of a teaser is to tease and this one didn't give me anything to get excited about.
the only minor point of interest was that the assault rifle was prominently featured. I didn't mention the assault rifle in my short Halo 3 wish list, but it was something that bugged me. why remove a perfectly reasonable weapon? I believe the rationale was that it was too much like the SMG and changing it to a real rifle would make it too much like the battle rifle. well, the assault rifle showed up in the trailer which strongly suggests that bungie found a way to make it work.
ditto,
ReplyDeletei am impressed though that they used the game engine itself to render that videoclip proving they have stepped well ahead in the graphics department. I am glad to see the assult rifle back and hopefully this means we have a more "halo 1" selection of Weapons.
