Halo 3

I'm pretty sure in the news page it said it was an Easter Egg.

Lots of cool information, I remember that specific even in the books. I didnt read alot of the second one since i could play the game, and i was told it was rediculously similar, except that there were more perspectives of different charchters.

Alot of this definitly supports my/others  theories. I'm gonna check this wiki page. But Wiki isnt always the best source.

SilkyNumbNuts:
Right.

I was aware they have said it might not be the AR. he didn't say whether it was or not. My point was it looks like it, so my opinion would be it's a subtle nod to the fans. And the 13/14 mile draw distance? If we don't get things like assault on the contol room I shall be very pissed off.

And my comment about halo 2: my problem with it is that halo was unique; halo 2 feels identical to every single FPS out there, apart from the fact that bungie tell a very good story. It's a faster, less tactical game. And I'd say that it was far more balanced in halo (except for the needler) than it is in halo 2. The shotgun and the sniper, if anything, became more overpowered, and the explosions don't have as large a blast radius, which seems kind of counter-productive when they're supposed to be balanced against someone dual-weilding. The turn rate is much faster, so the smooth perfection of the aiming in halo 1 is completely lost. The warthog loses its power as an offensive weapon, and is less fun to drive. You can no longer effectively run people over. Halo 2 also had very constrictive levels compared to halo 1. You were heading through corridors, rather than large open countryside. Even the inside levels in halo had large amounts of open space to fight in, most of the time. At least, that was where most of the fighting was.

But my point was that halo 2 was nothing like halo. It was an average FPS, and had little to do with halo except the plot. This is why I was happy about the AR lookalike (possibly the MA2B from the books, rather than the MA5B from the game) and the fact that the engine is focusing on humungous draw distance thought it also looks quite pretty.

....

I have no fucking clue what you just said. What the hell is AR?

SilkyNumbNuts:
Assault Rifle, sorry.

I suppose that wasn't the most structured of posts; what needs clarification?

Ozymandias:
I think I can now say that Halo geeks are the biggest ****ing nerds on the internet. You have passed Trekkies and Star Wars geeks to the point where you're making huge posts on the internet about what kind of GUN Master Chief has.
