No, its pretty good, but its just more of the same (which is not exactly a bad thing).

It was however over hyped. Remember that first E3 trailer with Master Chief throwing the bubble shield and running towards the ark? Well that is a scene in the game, and let me tell you, it only looks 1/2 half as good as the trailer.

Wait, what? Is he talking about Starry Night? Are you kidding me? And those screenshots he posted look absolutely horrible. Horrible. I'm playing the game right now and it looks nothing like the terrible pictures he has posted.

Also, there's no cutscene in the game with the Chief throwing a bubble shield and running anywhere. There just isn't.

City is Woodbridge.

By the way, I can't verify any of this... it's just coming from a guy on my list who I noticed had the game. I asked him where he got it and he said Toys 'R' Us. I asked for a location and he said New Jersey. Asked for a city and he said Woodbridge.

I have no reason to disbelieve him (and clearly he has the game) but who knows.

And as is the case with all of these leaks, YMMV.

Good luck. Hope it helps someone.

Isn't he reviewing it or at least some kind of VIP?

That's what I'm wondering. If he bought it at retail he's not bound by embargo. I doubt it's a review copy cause Bungie did those in controlled environments.

Controlled for print mags, for websites they just unleashed the gates.
 
Important weapon changes:

Br has improved - quicker rate of fire - 4shot kill

Pistol has improved - quicker rate of fire -5 shot kill

new weapon - mauler - v. powerfull - a mini shotgun you can dual wield

Sniper - same old but bullet gas streak is less obvious

Gravity hammer - coolest weapon by far - the energy swords' cousin - smash your opponents across the map with this one or if not within lethal distance you can push your opponents away - (off ledges on lockout :P)

Grenades go further (halo 2ish)

Dual wielding is still ridiculously powerful

needler - still powerfull

Cloak has been tremendously improved - WOW I mean you are truly invisible (Halo 1ish)

This is all taken from another forum so please don't hurt me if it's wrong.

Vyse, how much have you done with saved films?
I can't figure out how to record a clip from one of my campaign films.

It's because you can't. It was mentioned in the recent Saved Films article on Bnet.

Third question from last, here:
http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=h3savedfilms

Why can’t I make a clip in Campaign Saved Films?

The honest truth is that the feature did not function perfectly, and we didn’t want to ship something clunky. The fact that clips are infinitely more useful in Multiplayer anyway, made that decision much, much easier.

I don't think you can.
I've messed with some of my campaign videos, taking screenshots and such, but that record clip option always remains unavailable. =/

Edit: Beaten with the official word.

Could it possibly be implemented via DLC?

Wow. Well, if it didn't work... and it's a tiny thing in the midst of lots of cool stuff, but jeez... Me and my friends are campaign people and that was one of things we were most excited about. Videos of hidden skulls, terminals, cool fights against hunters, etc.

Ouch. BIG ouch.
