Famitsu Xbox 360 had the scoop on a lot of new Halo 3 images. Here are some high quality scans from the magazine, while waiting for direct feed versions!
But going up against brutes with hammers? forget that! As soon as I see one i'm turning tail and running in the opposite direction. As the Grunts say: "feet don't fail me now!"
Looks like this might have a chance of capturing some of the magic of the first Halo game. The MP options look really interesting and I really like the outdoor locals I've seen so far.

Johnson looks even more badass.

LOL
The gravity hammer should be cool. One swing and Brutes go flying through the air like confetti! I'm sure there is also a serious downside to using it as well, probably slow and you might even knock yourself out with it if handled incorrectly.
my guess on the downside of the brute hammer is that it will limit you to that 1 weopon so while your super strong at close combat your weaker and ranged, just to keep some balence

in one of the pictures he has the hammer on his back so thats not it, it probabably has like only 3 charges or something
Im not impressed at all, looks pretty average and nothing is in game there.
I got the new egm and they have almost half the magazine just talking about halo 3 eh wtf?

why did everything look so nice in the trailer except for that keys chick or whoever that is? she looked really bad, like xbox 1. they need to fix that.
this scans are nice. i thought asians didn't like good games? why do they have these screens??
Awesome scans.. and with todays news of the flamethrower/firebombs, I'm diggin it even more. The more variety, the better.. even though flamethrowers don't fit into a sci-fi setting :P

^Didn't one of the "Aliën" movies contain a flamethrower?..
OT: game is looking better and better. Where is Cortana? >D
True.. I'm just thinking of it from a real world point of view. Flamethrowers have been illegal weapons of war for a long time now--seems odd that they'd make a comeback in the future :)
It looks AVERAGE at best next to killzone 2 or unreal tournament 3 or bioshock...don't be blind just because you like halo, it looks like halo 2 with better resolution and textures.
Really a shame .....

well halo 3 might look average(although i think its looking pretty dam better then average!!), but if killzone 2 is anything like killzone 1, halo 3 is going to be alot of FUN.
from experiance of killzone 1, (while i HATE comparing killzone to halo), had very good PS2 graphics,but it was no where near as fun as driving around in the warthog with your co-op pal kicking alien ass.

Respectfully, I strongly disagree with this.
While Killzone 2 does look awesome it doesn't have the same range of visual fidelity as Halo 3. Killzone's textures are alot easier to pull off when the environments are so oppressively dark and grey, it doesn't nearly have as complicated a texture palette as Halo 3.
Have you seen the Halo3 trailer on a HDTV? Have you seen the way the light comes down through the canopy of trees? The scale of the enviroments?

You're wrong actually, Killzone 2 looks dark and oppressive due to post processing effects, not due to it's textures.

Ugh….scratch that previous comment. The upcoming Game of Thrones video game is a F’in mobile phone game. Why can’t they came an open world GoT game, like Witcher 3 or God of War? (> 3 Months ago)
