Halo 3 Pre-Release Discussion

Re: Halo 3 Beta Discussion

I dunno, I guess you'll see what you want to see. I played Halo 2 last week. I'm sure they were playing Halo 2 on a 360, which upconverts to HD. I can tell a big difference between the two. Another thing to remember is they are comparing a completely optimized version of Halo 2 vs. a beta build that's probably a month old and 4+ months away from release.

I don't know, you tell me.

Very disappointing. I've been reading around a ton of forums today and there are a lot of people out there who were expecting more.

Oh, it's on.



Yeah...that was a very fun game.

Umm no it wasn't. I don't get it. I unload a whole clip into someone, I still die. Ugh. The only fun part about that game was when I was trying to kill TJ when he was the VIP.

I'm not that impressed after playing.

Re: Halo 3 Beta Discussion

Haven't decided if I want to play tonight or not. I have a feeling these three maps are going to get old really quickly.

Umm, what's the other level besides the Snow and High Ground? I've ALWAYS ended up on one of those two in my hours of playing.

Valhalla, it's a huge map. It's probably my favorite in front of High Ground.

No problem, TAPOUT over at TXB did all the work. I just thought it was worth sharing.

Re: Halo 3 Beta Discussion

What is the cache? Does it delete all my game saves?

Please?

Re: Halo 3 Beta Discussion

This beta has really bad connection issues. Seems like every 3 games or so I get stuck in that black Uploading screen and then lag out from the game.
