Halo Reach

Inscrit depuis 7040 Jours

Missed this.

Halo: Reach will rock you to the core two weeks today with the release of the multiplayer beta? Can’t wait until then for some juicy Bungie-flavoured goodness?
Good thing that there’s always tomorrow.
An embargo of multilayer previews from events in the US and London will lift at 4pm BST tomorrow afternoon, so expect a batch of impressions and interviews to go live by then.

Someone posted these in the new Halo Reach screenshot news but I thought they were worth posting here as well:

IGN BETA Headhunter - Hands on:

Come May the 4th (or May the 3rd for our North American readers) everyone with a copy of ODST will automatically have a ticket into the Halo: Reach beta, but recently we were invited for an advanced look at the upcoming online trial at Microsoft's Australian headquarters. We came away from our session convinced that while the beta is going to be a generous taste test with a healthy number of maps and modes on offer, the new Headhunter game type is worth the price of admission alone.

All the Hands-On:

Some journalists played the Halo: Reach multiplayer beta throughout out the course of last week and this week, in case you haven’t realized it yet.
The consensus seems to be you should all have your ODST disc in your 360 disc tray and wait all night if you have to for it once it goes live on May 3.
Get rounded up below.
We didn’t miss out on the fun neither, of course. We sent Adam Hartley to give us his impressions of the taster. Go get it here.
Everyone else is below.

EuroGamer:

I don't mean I've been fretting about jetpacks because of their awful carbon footprint, or that I've been panicking over whether or not they'll spoil the nation's youth with idleness. No, I've been worrying about something far more serious: I've been worrying about how they're going to fit into Halo.

I've been worrying that they'll bust multiplayer right open, turning matches into nasty little bee storms filled with buzzing annoyances, that they'll break the game's tight convergence of weapons, environments and tactics, and that, really, they're only there as a gimmick to tempt people back from Modern Warfare 2.

I shouldn't have worried. A chance to play Reach's forthcoming multiplayer beta reveals that jetpacks in Halo are brilliant. They're not something to fear, they're something to arrange a national holiday around. They're seamlessly integrated (a squeeze of the left bumper is all it takes to shove you into the air, and you can control your pitch rather beautifully with little taps), the recharge time seems fair, and you don't even have to fret about being swamped by them: plenty of the people I play against choose to ignore jetpacks entirely in favour of different perks.

No expense is too great for the men and women of Bungie: if they need a person to blow down a cardboard tube to simulate a realistic jetpack sound, they're just going to go out and hire somebody.
Most importantly, though, jetpacks really fit in. Spartans have always been a bit like superheroes, and so the sight of one dropping down out of the clouds to land on a nearby ledge only heightens existing similarities between the Man of Steel and the Men of MJOLNIR.

I tend to think that 90% of the time I read gaming sites. It especially annoys me when someone makes a statement that's out of touch with the reality or history of the industry. That's a bigger deal to me, or at least as big of a deal to me, as their ability to communicate properly. An example: Kotaku claiming that Alien Versus Predator was ripping off Gears of War's "horde" mode when the original AVP featured a survival mode.

Love these two shots, the level of detail on those textures are just insane! As always, the texture quality in Halo games put pretty much every other console FPS to shame!

Great screens, also that neogaf article is cool. quoting eurogamer "Men of MJOLNIR" hehehe

EDIT: im also looking forward to "analysts" being mesmerized that despite halo reach and gears of war 3, the xbox didnt see a considerable boost in sales, because after 5 years, 2 halo games and 2 gears of war games, anyone whos interested in either of those series doesnt already have an xbox...

Yea, to a degree that's very true. A lot of times there are some truly incredible textures all throughout the environments in Halo games, and a good deal of that quality is usually lost due to the texture filtering not being there.

On the subject of texture filtering, Splinter Conviction has some truly impressive texture filtering in a lot of its environments. Some really immensely detailed looking stuff.

I am very upset with the Geeks on my facebook

They cant translate my Whats up... see if you can

A world once occupied with love is now nothing more than a apocalyptic waste..
Just dust and echoes..
Years have gone by and only the noise is of wind and tumbling rubble to be heard.. The noise of nothingness.

Then a crackle is heard just under the sand, the sound of sand been shocked by electricity, as a lone comms unit springs to life
A hiss..

Then becomes a noise, a noise this world would thought it would never hear again
"Olly Olly"
The sound resonates through the air desperate for a reply, who or whatever is making this noise, sounds full of anger, full of rage....full of vengeance....

It begins to repeat.."Olly Olly" *fizz tzz hiss*.."Olly Olly" *fizz tzz hiss*.."Olly Olly" *fizz tzz hiss*
