360 = 299 + 100 HDDVD = 399 | Wii = 199
Wii60 = 399 + 199 = 600$

Looks the same in all of em except the first one.

Other than the use of more polygons, what was the purpose of this post again ?

No that wasn't me!!!... I don't see what people see in the old tin can ..

Besides it wasn't MC that was in DOA4 was it...was a female spartan. (and i don't even play Halo)

good shit!
Major differences.

Would be cool to get some similar angles and lighting situations.
Maybe when the new Halo comes out we can work on that.

Very nice also it would surprise many that bungie isn't using that many more polygons for master chief 360 than they did for master chief in halo 2....

Said they are saving their poly budget for other things.... I can't friggin wait to see what the hell that is. Wait till we see this baby in motion gonna be gorgeous during actual gameplay with the effects they said will blow away most of the ones shown in the trailer.

lol damn new master chief looks much better than the spartan model in doa4 :P

Nah the armor design is different in areas. You see master chiefs left arm?? He has some new arm armor on there alot of people have been talking about it wondering how he got it.

Bungie said they took the realtime trailer footage from an actual part in the game to my knowledge about 1/4th into the game or something like that. I'm guessing part of him was damaged in whatever took place at the end of halo 2.

Looks nice. I like the darker green, and the detail is outstanding. If I was told this was a render I would believe it.

This reminds me of my April 24th thread, and this Halo 3 fan art/render. There are also some nice fan art out there:

I must say: Bugnie surpassed the quality of the fan render movie and this art.

LOL, notice how he started losing the green from game to game. Now he's basically wearing a gold armor.

Did you agree with me? Yes, No? Visit http://www.lebato.blogspot.com and see if we agree on something.

Some interesting trailer analysis from HBO users mentioned at TeamXbox.com.

You can see some of my tech comments here. I think the Stonehand comment about the dust particals being textures is probably wrong based on Bungie's comments (GPU driven particle system) and seeing how Kameo was able to generate 1M particles on screen with no impact. This is something the 360 should do well, and ATI has demoed this technique (ToyShop) in realtime with rain, so I am not sure I agree with that conclusion.

Anyhow, looks like Bungie has done a good job :D

I like the attention to detail in the new Chief model, but I don't like the detail itself at all. It looks like the Chief's armor was cast out of aluminum or pewter.

Yeah, when REALLY close up it looks odd. Almost like a procedural texture/bump map. There is a super close up somewhere and it actually looks like some of the detail (like groves) are actually some form of bump map (normal or parallax).

The DOA4 armor still looks the best IMO, mainly because its not so shiny and normal mapped to hell.
