He was able to PLAY Warcraft 3 for 15 minutes. Again, PLAY the ACTUAL game.

Well kick ass outdoor vistas at any rate. The indoor shots we've seen have been pretty average. Not bad, but nothing to write home about. The film was a scripted sequence. Why cant you grasp that? Whether its indicative of the single player game cant be told. Its too early. We dont know enough yet. Shit, they havent started working on the single player game yet!

To be honest I had more or less the same impression. From a purely architectural standpoint, what do the indoor shots of Halo look closer to: Tribes 2 or more like Quake3? Uh, Tribes 2.... Halos's 'Wow' factor hasnt come from its indoor architecture, thats without question.
