<div class="IPBDescription">Day 3 was more boring than day 2...</div>Man. Don't get me wrong, it still rocked, but EVERYTHING good was just on the first day.. Hell they could have just cancelled the other two and saved us all some time...
I know that is what I would have done lol <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I would have gone for the last two days in your place. If only to see what morsel of Halo 2 the guys at Bungie decided to show... *crys at the thought of seeing Halo 2 in action*

Let us know almost all/all the maps have a story, the vehicles are destructable, how dual-wield works(press y button when standing over), the new "Boost" thing, differences in weapons, and lastly- the laser-blade thing(which should have been in Halo 1 damnit! Whoever saw the year-2-year early demo of Halo knows what I mean).
I guess they just do it so the older gamers can get around to all the booths. What would boost the action is if they showed different demos each day and *gasp* maybe even handed out some demo disks, so people knew which games weren't vaporware and could better spend their time then to get hyped about a game thats nothing but a 5 minute demo movie being looped.
Well, gamespot released a small, real multiplayer game in action(not the video with at the end was an overview of Zanzibar).
Looked pretty neat, the audio was an angel choir to my ears(in a good way).
Some shrinked screens, note the dual wielding, being able to see the feet, hot detail on the suit now.
edit: I'm pretty sure non subscribers can watch it as well, it should be the second the the last video down <a href='http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/action/halo2/media.html' target='_blank'>http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/action/halo2/media.html</a>
Still looks like they went overboard with the 'shiny metal' shader. The weapons and player models are in sharp contrast to the rough feel of the terrain. I mean, don't those suits get damaged visually?
Maybe I'm just bitter the PC port was so crappy that I wasn't able to enjoy it.
Well be glad it's not as awkward as <a href='http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/action/doom3/screens.html?page=1' target='_blank'>Doom 3 or something</a>. I still think the models look like they're made of plastic, the shiny kind.

The guy the camera is focused on's suit looks a bit more ruffed up then the dude in the background.
