how is the oxm review exclusive when it's on the 25th and the web reviews are on the 23rd?

First print review. I think it's also 10 pages long.

I think I'll be spending as much money on magazines as I will be spending on the game itself :lol

When Radio Shack was up here in Canada they sold video games for years. 7-11 sold Halo 2. Why the surprise?

 

[GhaleonEB]

Yeah I don't think I'm adding this to the OP.

 

[Caspel]

Probably, but it seems every person that tries to help out with a little preview of things always sucks at presentation. Fuzzy photos FTW!

Here you go. I put the camera on macro mode but it was probably the most difficult thing in the world to do. Seeing that flower kills me.

With Macro Mode #1

With Macro Mode #2

With Macro Mode #3

If those don't please you, I am not going to go porn style and get fluorescent lights, a white backdrop, and lighting to make it look even better. The pics are like 3000x2300 now with macro mode on.

 

[Eric WK]

Haha. Nevermind. I got it.

 

[LJ11]

Yeah I don't think I'm adding this to the OP.

It's like the worst interview. Like those are like my feelings like when I like listened to like a few minutes of it.

 

[PaulRTC]

I'm interested what Symmetry options exactly do? do they just mirror weapon layouts?

The symmetry property of an object in Forge is used to set up which game variants the object will spawn on. I would assume the options are "Symmetric", "Asymmetric" and "Both". If set to "Symmetric" the object will only spawn on team-symmetric gametypes like Multi Flag CTF, Slayer, Neutral Bomb Assault, while "Asymmetric" is your 1 Flag CTF and the like (gametypes where the teams swap sides on alternate rounds because the map is asymmetrical in its purpose).

how is the oxm review exclusive when it's on the 25th and the web reviews are on the 23rd?

Is that the date it's hitting the stores? I know my copy usually comes in a week or so early than street date.

 

[The Elite]

Yeah I don't think I'm adding this to the OP.

lawlz.

:lol :lol

Reason?

Not a well executed interview.

 

[GhaleonEB]

Reason?

Sample questions:

What can you tell us about the ending?
So, how about that ending? Is there a Halo 4?
How are the graphics?
Does it run at 60 frames per second, like they mentioned? (Stopped listening here.)

I don't think they prepared well for the interview.

How are the graphics?
Does it run at 60 frams per second, like they mentioned? (Stopped listening here.)

I don't think they prepared well for the interview.

Is the ending like Spider-Man 3.

:lol :lol

If someone can find me the .FLV or a YouTube version, then I'll do it.

 

[FFChris]

Yeah I don't think I'm adding this to the OP.

:lol

Yea, it's like, not so good... like.

Edit: The interview does get a little better. She says it's well paced, lots of great moments in the game, didn't notice any slowdown on SP, MP or co-op, 11-18 hours long, doesn't do anything out of ordinary Halo gameplay.

Yeah, I started listening as I asked that.

I stopped at "Halo 4," personally.

I'd love to touch her...

 

[The Elite]

:lol

Yea, it's like, not so good... like.

They obviously were not going to get anything out of her about the game, they should have worked around her and talked about her feelings on the franchise and focused their questions on the franchise as a whole. Start with those to open her up to discussion.

"How does Halo 3 look?" doesn't work.

 

[Du2andal]

This interview is garbage. 7 minutes in and my freaking brain hurts.

 

[∀ Narayan]

Define the word "WOW" with a picture.

Yeah, this pretty much nails it.

[killakiz]

Has anyone gotten any luck getting the game early, im trying to think of what i can do/say to get them to sell it to me.

 

[Diablohead]

Oh my goodness that Halo Night music video is way too awesome :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

 

[Eric WK]

http://cnn-8.vo.llnwd.net/c3/sdx/vi..._0104_halonights.superdeluxe_512x384_500k.flv

Yes! You're the best, Tieno.

 

[dork]

Sorry if its been answered. Anyone know when the Bungie Net stuff goes live (not that it matters, i wont have the game till the 25th anyway)

But I would assume it goes up the 23rd or 24th.

 

[The Elite]

Lots of pictures in OXM review confirmed! :lol :lol

You have to be listening to the gamertagradio podcast.

[Eric WK]

WOW.

How you feeling, man?

I'm almost over it, I think. I'm at the acceptance stage or something.

 

[Doodis]

Is it safe in here? I was scared away last night after I thankfully missed the spoilage in the thread. I see Ghaleon is still hanging about. Brave souls, all of you. I had to peek in to see what was new.

 

[SpudBud]

I'm still pissed, but at least what happens during the game is not spoiled :/

Yeah, this pretty much nails it.

Hmm.. wow with that galaxy in the sky it makes you think this planet must be a really long ways away.. could be safe from the Halos going off.

 

[DrBo42]

There's more to the ending then what was spoiled yesterday. You guys still have stuff to find out. I however have been thoroughly spoiled.

Rewatching the documentary and clips on the DVD that came with Halo 2 Collector's Edition, then gonna move on to the Vidocs. Then I'll probably replay Halo, then a Halo 2 Multiplayer Marathon on Monday, then wait in line on Tuesday for the Midnight Launch.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

More to come (if I can be bothered).

 

[The Elite]

Did Luke mention when the podcast will go up?

I love rewatching all the documentary stuff, I check it out again every once in a while.

Sketch said in the next few days barring any unforseen complications.

 

[Tzeentch]
