Bungie finally released its first Halo 3"ViDoc" on the 360 Marketplace. The seven minutes long featurette is all about the Brutes, and dares to showcase some new gameplay clips of the campaign mode. For those who are far from their console right now, here is a 640 mirror. Blim's HD version will come later.
Update: 720p version added!

I love to fight brutes...
· There are no finished graphics in the documentary, and everything you see is a work in progress.
Now, do I download it now, or wait for the HD version? Decisions....
I love to fight brutes...
The Arbiter's fleet was left behind during the Prophet of Regret's attack on Earth and was probably not present during the High Charity fleet jump to Delta Halo. And since the Elites were driven off of High Charity by the Brutes, it would also indicate that Prophets betrayal of the Elites was looooooooong in the making and no spur of the moment decision.
Unless there is some other motive, the Prophets are just a bunch of Jim Jones' who want everybody to drink the kool-aid and die.
It now seems very probable that an alliance between Humans and Elites will take place. I was pretty sure the Grunts would have followed the cue of the Elites but it appears that they are fighting along side the Brutes in the docu-vid. Then again, the Grunts just could be place holders for now.
That would make-
Humans, Elites and Hunters - VS - Brutes, Jackals, Drones and Grunts.
So for my team I'd like to order up a Spartan, an Elite, a pair of Hunters and a side order of UNSC Marines to go please :D
Dual weilding swords! Ripping off limbs! Smashing into crates! New Marine design!
OMG, They have soo much armour now, they are gonne be bitches to kill. Wow, they were hard to kill in Halo 2, now they're even more deadly? *cries*
Kinda makes me wonder were they are going with the Elites now. Sleeker and more refined? I really want that dual wielding sword Elite on my team. Don't fancy going up against that.
The Grunts are quite whimpish. If you remember they were seen fighting along side both the Elites and Brutes during the end of Halo 2. My guess is that they'll just follow whichever species is nearest to them and most likely to kill them if they don't comply. Though I have a feeling they like the Elites better.
And Scarface, is this the one you wanted?
It only shows for 0.5 seconds in the vid.
Btw, anyone have any idea WTF this is?
Looks like a beam rifle, but its too stocky and fires way to fast. But it also looks like the gun on the small covenant turret that was in Halo 2, but, hes firing it without the stand. Moveable turrets? Me hopes.
Man, still a year away and i'm getting all hyped again.
One little thing too, I 'm happy about. On the screen that showed the new HUD, the reticule looks like it's been put back to the exact center again, instead of being a little lowered ala Halo 2. Yay.
quick qestion, when they showed us GOW bit by bit over its development life, did they also use placeholders??
For you guys that are complaining about the grapichs here is some info. Its a pre-alpha, I have beside the new issue of the swedish version of OXM (Xbox 360 - den officiella tidingen)
I quote
"The graphicengine is a renewd version of the Halo 2-engine and Bungie told us that eaven if we found this impressive there is still tons of effects that haven't been added."
D/L :)
HALO 3 Ftw
Doesn't look to bad for low-res
I'm not going to say anything about this footage. My trust is in bungie:)
it does look really crap though.
