Halo 3 Commercial
December 5th, 2006 by Steve Reddish in News[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/bV6qOAs84n0" width="475" height="360"/]
This is the commercial that aired just about an hour ago in North America on ESPN’s Monday Night Football. It is sure to be the beginning of the Halo hype that should last until the game actually releases. Bungie hopes to combine the best of both worlds from Halo and Halo 2 to make it one of the “must-have” games for this current generation of gaming, if it wasn’t already for most. The trailer was done in CGI, meaning it isn’t real gameplay, but should give an indication to what the game will be like. It is available for download on the XBL Marketplace now.

Master Chief: The master of all chiefs.

Yes … though short it was an amazing trailer … it blows Gears away. Well at least to me, imho.
December 5th, 2006 at 2:33 pm
Yeah but Halo is a proven IP and Bungie prides themselves on doing a great development job so I have no worries whatsoever and there is no way I wouldn’t get it. Like I said I already reserved the Legendary Edition. It’s just my kind of game and since I have played Halo and Halo 2 this was a no-brainer for me. But I do understand your perspective.
December 5th, 2006 at 6:30 pm
Okay cool … not a problem … I’m still looking forward to it … wouldn’t matter to me if the graphics looked like the first one. But I am a Halo fan and that’s just me. I want to finish the trilogy … and btw did you get my email?
December 5th, 2006 at 6:46 pm
that was cool, well from the point where he did that shield thing to him doing the run. as for halo 2 on vista, what is the point of it, i doubt anyone that wants halo 2 hasn’t got it already, its £15 including the first one and the multiplayer pack. couldn’t they jsut release the third one on pc or not at all.
December 5th, 2006 at 7:15 pm
Well there are a substantial number of people who only play their FPS games on the PC (you know the whole mouse and kb vs gamepad controllers debate) so they are really looking forward to finally getting it on their platform … and tp be perfectly honest I’m getting it for the PC as well just to see how much better it looks since they will be able to do advanced AA, advanced AF and texturing, and shading/real-time lighting effects and maybe more advanced particle effects … it is going to rock even though I beat the game several times.

# Anuban Says: No … they are still working on boosting the sales of the 360 even more and you can imagine how many more 360s this will sale next Holiday season when the PS3 and the Wii are on their 2nd generation titles. And to sale Vista they need only bring H2 to that platform. You have to look a the History of Halo and Halo on the PC and then it all makes sense.

Yeah, Microsoft’s going big or going home this time around… home, home, home….
December 11th, 2006 at 2:29 am
DUDE
December 11th, 2006 at 2:31 am
Yeah dude i have no worries at all. I have played both Halo & Halo 2 and i trust in Bungie to make thi game great. I can see ur guys’s perspective but i have raith in Bungie.
December 11th, 2006 at 2:35 am
As do I my young friend … or else why would I have devoted nearly two of my life to bringing the MOD HaloUT to fruition.
December 11th, 2006 at 2:36 am
“nearly two years of my life” … man I have to be more careful when I post.
December 11th, 2006 at 2:39 am
lol
yea i said raith instead of faith lol
December 11th, 2006 at 2:40 am
do u have Halo for pc?
December 11th, 2006 at 2:43 am
Of course … that was mandatory for the mod project as assets had to extracted from that version for Bungie not to shut us down. We used the official Bungie sanctioned Halo Extraction tool to extract everything from Models to textures to weapons to vehicles … I think if you have UT2K4 you may want to download the package (1.751 and the CXP) and check it out since you are a Halo fan.
December 11th, 2006 at 2:46 am
lol yeah, My Halo pc account is the same as this name is
or u may find it as Gray Fox either one is me
December 11th, 2006 at 2:54 am
im downloading as we speak lol
December 11th, 2006 at 2:58 am
Make sure you go to this link though so you understand what to do … I am NOT going to answer any installation question … no way … I went through all of that already … you may want to hit this thread and Buffy will answer all your questions more than likely … she was our Visual Photo Engineer since no one else in the UT community can match her screenshots.

ok will do. by the way do u play multi player? (for pc)
December 11th, 2006 at 3:02 am
Also make certain you get this version:
files.filefront.com/HaloUT_Allfiles_In_Onezip/;5948646;;/fileinfo.html
They did a good job after I left of FINALLY putting everything in one downloadable package so you have all you need including the CXP (community Xtras Pack) … It was supposed to be called the OMNI release but when I left things were a little slow to continue … thanks to 717 who is a really good developer some more was done with the mod and then Buffy did everyone a favor and put it all in one file. On that thread I am both AnubanUT2 (Exodus was my project name) and NakhtiUT3. Good luck and have fun and share your ideas with us on that thread please.
December 11th, 2006 at 3:04 am
!!! omg….dude are u in NsK?
December 11th, 2006 at 3:04 am
Nah don’t like online play … I am one of those gamers who likes to solitary game … although during test time and release time I would join in with the devs to make sure things were working as I had indicated they should and then the users loved to play me and try to beat me … the only one who was a match for me was a guy named Disposable Hero … we had the most intense match ever where everyone logged in just to spectate … he won by one shot with exactly 1 second to go. It was fun and intense I will admit that much.
December 11th, 2006 at 3:08 am
What is NsK? Anyway HaloUT is all over the web … google HaloUT and or Project Torlan and you can see we where pretty known … and Bungie was totally cool with that since we didn’t rip anything from the Xbox … especially not Halo 2 content. Or we would have gotten what that one team who was developing a Halo based RTS got … the dreaded C&D letter. To bad they didn’t know Bungie had plans for the rts genre with Halo Wars. That is always the danger when you choose to do a mod based on someone else’s IP. Plenty of mods got closed down in time we were working on this … which is why I love Bungie … they were cool with me and my team.
December 11th, 2006 at 3:08 am
hmm sounds awesome. but on another note in the clan NsK one of the leaders name is Exodus :s
December 11th, 2006 at 3:14 am
NsK is a Halo multiplayer clan and were pretty well known 2. and on another note im googleing it now lol
December 11th, 2006 at 3:17 am
Oh no that is not me. I have been Exodus since the project was started back in the summer of 2004. You will see once you read the readme file in the zip/rar file(s). Or you can ask about me on that thread. We had a site but now since they are taking an idea I gave them and running with it there is a new site that is still under construction I believe. The name of that TC mod is going to be called PS7 short for Project Spartan 7 … the 7 being the clue that this a UT2K7 mod. But I want to do something original this time out with UE3 so I won’t be leading that project. I think 717 will be though … I would choose him if they asked me to pick a successor.
December 11th, 2006 at 3:21 am
kool so this is a new Halo game or idk?
lol
December 11th, 2006 at 3:33 am
wait what does the new version do? for the halo pc
December 11th, 2006 at 3:36 am
It is HaloUT … a mod for Unreal Tournament 2004 … did you even check that link I gave you? I think I asked you a few posts back if you had UT2K4 … if not then don’t bother .. the whole point of the mod was to bring the world of MasterChief over to Unreal Tournament which is much better for MP online than the Gearbox engine. It combines the very fast nature of UT2K4 with the familiar elements of Halo CE for the PC.
December 11th, 2006 at 3:40 am
ok i forgot 2 check the link :s but what is the unreal tournament?
December 11th, 2006 at 3:50 am
Unreal Tournament 2004, also known as UT2004 or UT2K4, is a futuristic first-person shooter computer game designed mainly for multiplayer gaming, although the game has a built in single-player mode that mimics multiplayer gaming by featuring AI-bots. Unreal Tournament 2004 is part of the Unreal series of games and is the sequel to 2002’s Unreal Tournament 2003. Unreal Tournament 2004 was co-developed by Epic Games and Digital Extremes and published by Atari. The major addition to Unreal Tournament 2004 is the introduction of vehicles to the classic first-person shooter formula following in the footsteps of Tribes 2, Halo: Combat Evolved, and Battlefield 1942. Unreal Tournament 2004 also features great user interactivity with user-made mods, maps, and other add-ons.

December 11th, 2006 at 3:56 am
Dude thats f-ing sweet!!
December 11th, 2006 at 4:00 am
Thanks man. I have to tell you I live for people being excited by all the hard work WE did as a team. It was really something special even with all the headaches and betrayals and team fighting. At one point I had among the best the UT community has to offer in all facets of design … from level creation, modeling, skinning, UV mapping, animations, gametype design, weapons coding, vehicles coding, voice pack creation and custom mutators … on the team … it was really quite amazing to be honest. And it permanently hooked me into game development. Which is why I am back in school at my old age.
December 11th, 2006 at 4:04 am
Awesome sounds Hella fun!!!
December 11th, 2006 at 4:09 am
