Halo 3 Launch: Beyond your wildest dreams...

Laura — Tue, 25 Sep 2007 20:13:00 GMT

I couldn't NOT go to the launch event for Halo 3 right here in Bellevue, Washington at our nearby Best Buy. Honestly, I was overwhelmed. There were hundreds of screaming Halo fans, free stuff, food, music, and PLENTY of Gamer Fuel. On top of all that excitement I got to talk to legendary football quarterback Warren Moon, Bungie community leader Brian Jarrard, Microsoft's global marketing Maestro Jeff Bell - and the man himself Bill Gates even came out to run the register on the first copy Halo 3 sold there. Plus, I got to mess with fanboys! Good Times!

With less than 12 hours since the launch of Halo 3 there are already nearly 200 million gamers killed in action. If you're stuck at work while all your friends are tearing it up in a Warthog, you can always keep track of the fun through Bungie Online. As I sit here at my desk and write this, there are ~~105,221~~ 119,521 (lucky) people playing Halo 3 online, which makes me wonder how many of them have called in sick to work or skipped school. You can see a real-time world map of the people playing online, while the majority of people playing right now are on the East Coast, you can see there are also some Master Chiefs in places like Abu Dhabi and Shanghai (go to bed already!) At Bungie Online you can also look at screenshots, download video clips or maps to your Xbox,

Halo 3 Video Documentary: Et Tu Brute

Duncan — Fri, 22 Dec 2006 23:03:00 GMT

This video went up a few days ago onto the marketplace, but here it is for those of you that don't have a 360 or just would rather see it on your PC/Zune/iPod/PSP...

Here is the official description (from Major Nelson's post):

"In the second Bungie “Vidoc” we take a long hard look at the ferocious new antagonist for Master Chief, the Brute. Now that a tentative alliance has formed between Humans and Elites, the fighting focus of Halo 3 switches to the monstrous Brutes. These tenacious foes have improved graphically with the advent of the Halo 3 engine and the power of the Xbox 360, but more importantly, their tactics, weapons, vehicles and AI have all followed suit, making the Brutes the worthiest opponents the Chief has ever faced. See how the designers, artists and programmers set about the herculean task of replacing a fan favorite – the mighty Elite – with an unforgettably ferocious adversary. See how Brutes behave in packs and as individuals with brilliant new animation and AI. Take a first look at the new Brute graphics, weapon and armor designs and finally, get the first ever public glimpse at Halo’s legendary Campaign.

And for those of you who notice... yes, this was widescreen and yes I cropped it down, but this actually made the in-game footage fill the screen (it was 4:3 in the original video) so I thought it was a better overall result :)

And if you really want the highest quality... you can grab the 6Mbps original as well, 640x360
