Xbox 360

I know we are two days late with this video of Halo 3, but somehow it looks like Microsoft France thought it would be fun to give us our review copies of the game only today. Thumbs up! Anyway, the game will be released tomorrow officially in France so I guess we are not *totally* late. This video was recorded by myself, and by no means am I a good FPS player (that's usually Snoopers' job but he's on his way back from Japan) so I guess it will have to do. I don't think I was totally ridiculous, especially since I was playing in Heroic difficulty. Keep in my mind that this was done with the French version, and I had no choice but to use the French voices :(


Big thanks to Driftwood and Vincent for the failed attempt to record the video at home a couple of days ago. It COULD have worked. :)

I cant believe they only have french voices on the disc. Thats HORRIBLE.

If I only had Finnish or Swedish voices on my disc I'd go shoot somebody for real.

Gonna download this just to see how the french voice acting is, and maybe I still can understand something.

Played it through on monday. It was a lot of fun and a lot of dying since we played 2 player koop on Legendary. It was much more like Halo 1, the scale was huge, epic battles, in one single room I counted over 40 enemy bodys. I liked the ending, too. That was a glorious way to end the trilogy. Never witnessed any slowdowns, just when a new area was loading.

Just got it.. MP looks great!

Not exactly a technical showpiece for the 360.. very dated graphics. Physics and Animations are great

Just beat it on coop heroic. It is without a doubt the greatest looking and playing game of all time. All haters will be left in the dust. It has not only met the huge amount of hype, but exceeded it in every way possible. No question about it.

I can't believer the German voice acting is worse than in Halo 2 >.<

Why does MS do this?! It's one of the most important games for the 360 and they seem to totally mess any european dub -.-

i... will... not... watch... this...

really hard to leave this vid alone, but i hope i get my copy today.

btw i think too that Bioshock was highly overrated. it's a great game, but I searched for all achievements in Bioshock, and after getting them, it has no replay-value at all.
And I still think the dynamic water in Halo3 is better done than the static water in Bioshock (and Bioshock plays 99% under water!?)

best regards,

DC...I just want to see how it feels like to go into a thread for a game I am not interested and post something bad and then leave.
People kept doing it in the DS threads but I didn't see anyone complain on that.

I will stop going into H3 threads and all because I frankly don't about Halo at all, and I RESPECT people who enjoy it (Heretic being top of my list) but I hope people do the same thing when I make a thread about a game I like.

I will from now on go with my own tip...
*If you don't like the game, do not enter the threads.*

like MK said...enjoy whatever Halo has to offer ;)

Yeah I know...like I said, I won't post ANY negative post on Halo 3 threads...unless its positive.

Heres a bad ass one...one store is selling regular H3 version so damn cheap...like 3 times cheaper than a gaming store.

I MIGHT pick it up...today.

I love the opening scene. A perfect beginning. I had a huge grin on my face when I saw it for the the first time when playing, right up until the Brute Chieftans had their way with me (legendary difficulty mind you).

Its waiting for me at the local post office.

I was thinking of playing coop with my brother (splitscreen). What difficulty do you recommend? We are not halonuts but we have experience with pc/console fps.

JSH: Well play it on another setting then easy then, troll!

Well I decided not to get it...gonna get HL2 The Orange Box next month. Around 4-5 games with the price of 1 new game. :)
Appearently PS3 version is delayed by couple of weeks after October 9th/12th (US, 12 EU).

But I REALLY hope Halo 3 fans enjoy the game.
And Phaethon like I said, as soon as I get a word on the soundtrack, you will hear it soon ;)

First time I see you have a good comment against me...nice!

Well my mom and sister went to town right now, so I told my them to pick up a used Killzone copy for Ps2.
I am a Killzone fan, so I will do whatever i can do to get into the Killzone 2 beta.
But yes, I will enjoy.

Thx for the good thought ;)
