In Response To: Details (Jordan117)

: "No bs. I'm in the army and currently deployed to Iraq, the Halo
: develpers are bringing the game here. It is going to be set up for 3 days
: 24hours a day. We get to test play it and they are going to be asking us
: what we think. It is 1pm here right now, I'm going to head over there when
: I get off work, around 6-7pm. Tommorrow I'll post up what I thought of the
: game."

: Posted by Cowboy082288 in the GameSpot forums .

"Well I played it last night and there was only 3 maps available all PvP. I didn't see anything of the single player mode. But what I did see was freakin sweet. O yeah you can store weapons and cycle through them for later use. The developers were pretty cool they were giving away games. A freind of mine won Gears of War. They said that story line wise they want to wrap everything up in the 3rd one. I asked for a release date, all they could tell me was late next year. O yeah the x-box 360s they had were weird. They were all black but not cool black, more like they just came off the factory line and never got painted. O and we were playing the game on HDTVs, and the graphics look very good. I'm goint back there tonight, anything anyone wants me to ask."

"I don't remember what x did I have not used a 360 controller much. I think A jumps, right trigger shoots, right shoulder picks up weapon and gets you in vehicles, left trigger throws grenades, pressing down on right analog stick zooms o yeah the bottun on the right just above the A buton butt strokes with your weapon. The button to the left of the A button might be what is used to cycle weapons but I never did that, I saw other people do it though. They told me that currently the game can support up to 12 players without lag, but they are going to get that number higher."

"Yes they said you would be able to cary more than 2 weapons and cycle through which ones you want. I don't know if it is going to revolutionize FPS but it is pretty fun."

"O yeah and the X button thing, I looked at the controler menu and there are different setups but every setup has a button called classified. I guessing it is a function they have not added to the game yet. O and Y lets you cycle threw the different weapons your carrying."

"The videos don't really do the game justice, it looks better in person. But I agree that the graphics don't really blow you away, there is still a lot of development time left though. But graphics aside it is extremly fun to play."
