That fabric is amazing, one step closer to making things look real is getting fabric movement and look down. (2D sprites and old school painting for example.)
Nothing is overly enhanced on Master Cheif besides the shine factor.
i hope they fix the controls on the jeep.
oh yeah. i forgot. you'll be able to use two DIFFERENT weapons at once. for example, one of those pistols and a laser gun or what not. supposed to be innovative. haha

"Lead Designer Jaime Griesemer demonstrates: "It's on your cover of course, but now the Chief can use two weapons simultaneously It's been done before, but what we're doing is letting you use two different types of weapon. For instance, you can be carrying the SMG and the plasma pistol. And it's not just for show. This new feature is an instrinstic part of play in the new Halo universe. You could use an overcharge blast from a plasma pistol to blast an elite and after his shields are knocked out, use the SMG to finish him"
Umm... you did that in Halo.
You could hold 2 guns and pick up any lying around, which was a must in most levels as ammo became scarce in some scenarios for good munition based weaponry. (assault, and shotgun)
?? What is new?
OH! Simultaneously! I don't see how that's so good... using two assault rifles at once takes away more of the one man strategy and makes it nothing more than a button holdings accuracy test or something...
It would be cool to have 2 pistols, though.
I guess there will be a separate shot button for each gun you hold, if what that guy says is true. Thing is, you could easily just switch between weapons to begin with.
What the fuck is that supposed to mean? Seriously, was that English or just the newest term they're using on IRC?Quote:

I hate Delta with a passion. And I don't hate ANYBODY.
Halo 2 looks amazing, and I can't wait to get it into my Xbox.
It's only two pictures.
Good graphics for H2, but thats about it.
I'm still trying to figure out what the big deal about Halo was, and I bought/beat the game and still want to know. Maybe its the multiplayer which I never got into. As it stands, the first Halo was just a decent looking, but lame plot and crud level designed game. The controls were ok for a console FPS, but did not shock and awe me. Average game, IMO. Might be a fun party game, but I'll never know.
