DOES NOT look like Best Graphics!!! :(

I'm glad you can tell us this from Digital Pictures of Magazine Scans of Downscaled Images from an Alpha Build of a game containing Placeholder Textures.

Go complain somewhere else please. It looks absolutely gorgeous.

Weather effects in MP! Finally! Mongoose!

I think i'm with the majority--everyone else going for the Legendary Edition?

Low res scans of an alpha version with placeholder textures--and it still looks beautiful. :happy:

2 new weapons

The Spiker - New weapon for Brutes, it’s a nail grenade type weapon that sticks on walls and bursts nails into the air

The Spartan Laser - An anti-veichle weapon, fires a red laser that pretty much destroys any veichle that is hit. Hard to use.

The multiplayer leves are

Valhalla(Blood Gulch)

High Ground(Zanzibar)

Snowbound(Frost bite)

Three Multiplayer levels were tested:

: Three different multiplayer levels does our own Halo-Fanboy Thomas Wiborgh

: have time to try out and the levels are limited by invisible walls. If the

: player reaches to far outside of the level they will be attacked by an

: automatic defense. Whats the point of it is not presented in the text.

: One of the multiplayer level is called "Snowbound". It's a battle

: level in winter territorie with large Covenant bases. On the levels are

: also bunkers that are protected by energyshields. These shields can't be

: penetrated by bullets and grenades, but players can go through it though.

: Another level is called "Highground", its shaped for teamplay and

: reminds of the Halo 2 level "Zanzibar". One team has to defend a

: base that is on a hill. The other team begins in a beach below the base

: and has the mission to attack it. In the base you can open alarge gate

: that lets a warthog from the beach drive inside the base.

: The third and last level is called "Valhalla" and is a forest

: covered level with mountains in the horizon. It's so big that it is made

: for vehicles and has two large bases placed out. (It's suppose to be the

: new "Blood Gulch".)

What's the Legendary edition? Sorry haven't been following this that much.

Start by reading the thread :) It's there.

Legendary Edition

The CE will be called ?Legendary Edition? and is a replica of Master Chief?s helmet complete with four DVD discs. The first disc will be the game disc, the second will contain documentaries and developer comments, the third disc is all about the spin-off material that has been created (Red vs. Blue, Spark of Life etc) and the last disc will contain all of the cut scenes from Halo 1 to 3 in HD.

Yeah it does look good if you ask me.

Only defence I have for that guy is people do exactly the same thing with in development PS3 games.

I thought it best to point out these things clearly before some newbie or anti-x360 person comes without reading.

- THIS IS AN ALPHA BUILD, UNFINISHED VISUALS, GAMEPLAY, MECHANICS etc.

***ONLY*** the below images are CONCEPT ART, THE REST ARE INGAME.

edit: there are one or two more that are, these are obvious though so i wont update.

What if you could save your own movies from Halo 3's single- and multiplayer gameplay and then rewatch them? In Halo 3, you can.

It's on now! Montages galore!

Now that is going to be sweet. I imagine this will make all those who like finding glitces and weird places etc. happy.

    • I like Tidal, but it still does not control devices from the mobile/app and still no surround support. And yeah re: above comment I still get a lot of network errors and I am on a 4/4 Gbit Fiber connection.
    • Aren`t "security features" and "AI model that can see your screen" a tad diametric!
    • Samsung, Amazon extend 990 PRO 2TB NVMe SSD deal beyond Prime Day 2026 by Sayan Sen Recently, we had Amazon's Prime Day 2026 sales wherein there were several great deals including on SSDs. One of those discounted components was the Samsung 990 PRO SSD as the 2TB variant of it was selling for $370, a very good price after a long time. Although that deal was supposed to expire today, Amazon has now extended that sale further (purchase link under the specs table down below). The 990 PRO is a PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD and still one of the fastest drives available today for under $400. Speaking of fast, sequential reads and writes are rated at 7450 MB/s and 6900 MB/s, respectively. The random throughputs for reads and writes are 1400K IOPS and 1550K IOPS, respectively. The 990 PRO is based on Samsung's 7th Gen V-NAND flash, and it too is TLC. It packs 2 gigs of LPDDR4 DRAM cache, which helps the random performance. The endurance rating for this is 1200 TBW (terabytes written), which should be sufficient for most users. The Samsung 990 PRO is compatible with the PlayStation 5, but if you are going to use the 990 PRO on a PC, check out the Samsung Magician app that lets you track your drive's health, update its firmware, customize various settings, and more. The technical specs of the Samsung 990 PRO 2TB are given in the table below: Specification Value Form Factor M.2 2280 Interface PCIe Gen 4.0 x4, NVMe 2.0 NAND Flash Samsung V-NAND TLC Controller Samsung In-house Controller Cache Memory Samsung 2GB Low Power DDR4 SDRAM Sequential Read Speed Up to 7,450 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 6,900 MB/s Random Read (4KB, QD32) Up to 1,400,000 IOPS Random Write (4KB, QD32) Up to 1,550,000 IOPS Random Read (4KB, QD1) Up to 22,000 IOPS Random Write (4KB, QD1) Up to 80,000 IOPS Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C Reliability (MTBF) 1.5 Million Hours Endurance 1,200 TBW (Total Bytes Written) Get it at the link below: Samsung 990 PRO SSD 2TB NVMe SSD (MZ-V9P2T0B/AM): $369.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Glad im on the right boat. Tidal has lots of issues in terms of app and music mix, its worst than spot but its honest. Spot algo is very tendentious and they pess less to artists, so im comfortable with the tidal errors, for now.
    • Tidal won't monetize AI slop music, company says by David Uzondu Image via Tidal Tidal has announced an AI policy aimed at protecting artists and their crafts, as AI music generation tools continue to improve both in speed and quality. According to the music streaming platform, AI-generated music will be accepted, but these tracks will be held to a "higher standard" of content integrity. Next month, the company plans to auto-identify and tag these uploads. Listeners will spot a special icon next to content that algorithms flag as 100% AI-generated starting mid-July, and the platform hopes to expand this tag to partially generated songs as detection tech improves. Any AI music that exploits an artist's voice or likeness will be taken down, and Tidal will immediately block tracks associated with fraudulent activity, which includes artificial streaming and deceptive content that interferes with real creators. And finally, music that's 100% AI-generated will not be monetized. Tidal said there is "ongoing debate" about whether certain licensed synthetic models deserve payouts, so it's possible that this part will change in the future. Streaming platforms are absolutely getting flooded with AI-generated music because of how easy it is to pump out endless tracks every minute. To give you an idea of how "bad" it is, Deezer alone reported that synthetic uploads now make up about 44% of its daily intake, which translates to roughly 75,000 automated tracks hitting its servers every single day. Interestingly, Deezer found most people cannot tell the difference between human and machine creations, with an Ipsos study revealing that 97% of listeners failed to spot the AI-generated tracks. Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music. The Swedish platform partnered with Universal Music Group to test "legal and controlled" generative AI tools that let subscribers remix songs with AI.
