Newer boxes with the Samsung drive are uber, they load faster and never Fail to load Maps.

About the cutscenes - If they drag for you, consider buying one of the limited edition Xboxes. I have a Halo Xbox (I started late, and after months of playing on a friend's X, I couldn't resist Halo 1), and I am -always- surprised at how differently it models up on mine versus my buddy's across the hall. I don't know what sort of hardware changes took place between them, but they're significant enough to detect in H2.


I got the blue Ltd Ed. Halo2 xbox... It won't copy some of my CD-Rs to its hard drive while my old regular X will... definitely some changes either for the Ltd Eds or upgraded during the production cycle of the system.

I thought so too...
But a few days ago, for the first and so far, last time ever, my samsung 1.5 Xbox failed to load midship.

Halo 3 related. I'm sure you all saw the pics of messengers dressed as the MC yesterday.

With the new H2 Killtacular mappack is included a short side-story video. In an interview video also released on that mappack, bungie says words to the effect of, "We didn't really have well thought-out tools for making animation sequences. So, while the MP guys were making new maps and playtesting the animators developed a better system and made this animation to try out the new things."

I suppose this lends more creedance to the notion that H3 has been in production all along, using the dev tools from h2. Right?

Yep.

I mean, the mystery here isn't that they're developing Halo3. It's more about what they're going to do with that installment of the franchise, whether or not it's going to tie in with the movie, things like that.

Blue?

I have the Ltd. Edition Halo box (that's when I finally succumbed to Halo 1), and it's green.

Yeah, the DoA Online (Ultimate) box is Blue, but that was Japan only...

Next Halo Hits March 2007
Microsoft plans for wide-open spring 2007 launch.
by Douglass C. Perry

March 30, 2006 - The next Halo is coming in March 2007. According to a Microsoft source who asked to remain anonymous and a second source close to the company, IGN today learned that Microsoft will publish the next Halo game (as predicted in January) in March 2007.

When phoned, Microsoft declined to comment. While the holiday season remains the most important set of months to publish a game, the first calendar quarter of the year is proving to be bigger and more prominent in sales. Microsoft intends to innovate, challenge traditions, and to use its own "playbook" (as Microsoft's J Allard has said time and again), and slotting Halo 3 (or Halo Forerunners, or whatever April Fool's gag you choose) in March 2007 is likely to shift consumers' priorities. That anticipation will overlap with the first few months of Sony's and Nintendo's launches, cutting into their building stages, and shifting eyes toward and opening wallets for Xbox 360.

By theoretically shifting Halo to next spring, Microsoft thus allows third-party companies a better chance to shine independently of Bungie's uber shooter during the fall 2006 season. One must wonder, however, why the game wouldn't come out simultaneously with the movie, due in summer 2007. But if Halo 3's alleged March release date is officially confirmed, perhaps the game will leave questions for the movie to answer.

Expect more Halo 3 news at E3, where we believe Bungie's game will premiere in video form.

Ignore anything that doesn't come from Bungie, there's no way IGN would have news that is totally accurate before them. If that article doesn't count as April fools, they are just making things up.
