It sucks cause it's in a different language and also scans are really shitty so I doubt anyone can translate the mag.

I can't wait for like EGM and other US mags to come out with Halo3 info :)

P.S. I directly posted the scans because it's in the public domain at Joystiq... If Joystiq removes their images, I will gladly do the same. If for some reason, the mods are paranoid, then feel free to remove them or whatever, but just go to Joystiq and they have the scans there.
 
Im swedish and Ive never heard of a mag called "level"... Halo 3 looks pretty sweet though, but surprisingly alot like Halo 2

I agree completely...except with the part of it looking pretty sweet.
 
Doesn't seem to be that much improvement graphically. Just seems to have better draw distance and shadows with some higher res textures. Not that its a bad thing, Halo still looks decent today. I hope the gameplay and story are much better than Halo 2, god I hated that game.
 
I thought it was Halo 2 first, but prolly because of the small pics. I can translate the important stuff if I had the magazine. I've seen it a couple of times in our entertainment room at Uni so I might swing around and grab it tomorrow or something.

Edit: One quote say "Theres so many ways to convey emotions. The graphics are not the most important part." Well, I hope they live up to that.
 
How can u tell what the graphics look like, the pictures are small and from a camera?
 
These aren't scans, just some horrible shots from a camera.

You can't tell much from the pictures, I'll wait for some decent enough photos to show up before I even comment on it.
 
I like how it looks already.

And MP looks to be amazingly fun just looking at one of those screenshots.
 
and here begins the hype again

we will see now users whit names like "ipodmasterhalogangsta yo yoç>>>>" posting about why halo3 is so great,and in weeks before the launch that will be companied whit another huge adverstising stuff
 
Same environments...same design...probably same gameplay. I see nothing new and creative to add to the gameplay, just a Halo2 copy with a different title, engine, story, campains. No new enivonments and something new and nurishing for the game.

Half-life 2 had very much creativity by applying a great veriety of enivonments that makes the gameplay more intresting. Halo is just...bleh, i dont see why people like it so much, its just another run-n-gun game, that we have seen thousens of times before.

I dont want to hate on halo, im just giving my thoughts about it.
Its over rated
 
Hi-res scans just appeared.

EDIT: Not all though.
 
Doesn't really look next-gen to me. Looks like the same old Halo 2.
 
The renderer is in the alpha stages right now, and a lot of the art assets aren't completed. So, the quality right off the bat isn't going to be up to GOW, and on top of that they haven't created all the high-res textures and models that they need for the finished product.

I'm tentatively excited. For the most part it sounds good, but I really hope the "spike grenade" and the "catapult" don't turn out to be really stupid.
 
Wow, bungie have really cracked the cloning process. Man cannon? lol, the nail grenade does sound cool though.
 
I think Halo is way overrated but I would like to see how the story goes on.
 
New details :)

Three New Levels
- Valhalla = Blood gulch,
- High Ground = Zanzibar,
- Snowbound = Frost bite.


New Weapons
Spiker: Some sort of melee weapon.
Spartan Laser: An anti-vehicle weapon.
Nail Grenade: A grenade that sticks to the wall and shoots nails out when it explodes.
Apparently the Spiker and your secondary weapon will now actually be visible strapped to your back.


New Vehicle-
Mongoose: An ATV that carries two people, but has no weapons.


Multiplayer Features
Man Cannon: A device that shoots people into the air, much like a jump pad, though it sounds like it might be aimable.
No bots again. (boo)
The X button will have some special multiplayer feature, perhaps stealing a player's weapon.
Bumpers are now used to reload weapons independently.


Halo 3: Collector's Edition
It will be called the Legendary Edition and will come in a replica of the Master Chief's helmet and include four DVD discs.
- The first disc will be the game disc.
- The second will contain documentaries and developer comments.
- The third disc is all about the spin-off material that has been created (Red vs. Blue, Spark of Life etc).
- The fourth disc will contain all of the cut scenes from Halo 1 to 3 in HD. (you can see it on the 3rd photo)
- A taste of the Halo movie will be on one of the discs.

I swear to god they better release an updated Sidewinder or someone is going to die. I loved the map and I wished it would have been in Halo 2.
 
I couldn't be any less excited. Halo 2 was rubbish, so my hopes aren't high.
 
Wasn't Halo 3 supposued to be released when the ps3 came so MS could **** it's launch up.
 
Jeez why even post this here if 95% percent of the forum hates the game :| Im looking foward to it.

Am I the only one who thinks that would have been counter-intuitive, even if they managed to pull it off? I mean a popular game releasing is one thing, but even a GTA or Sims title couldn't compete with a console launch. The PS3 would completely overshadow Halo 3. Just seems like a shitty idea all around.

And yeah, I'm not a fan of the Halo games at all. That said we don't know anything about this one, so maybe they'll actually improve it this time.

I love how that list reads like an expansion pack's new "features", not a sequel's. Of course, it's not everything... but still.

Just a rumour. Halo 3 was never going to be ready be then.

I can't wait for Halo 3, if only for some good co-op play. Multiplayer should be a blast on live too.

For the last GODDAMN time, that quote is about nailing a repeatable enjoyable experience. It is NOT Griesemer "admitting" that Halo and Halo 2 are 30-second games stretched out into 12 hours.

This is what, the fourth, fifth time I've mentioned this? Yet you still bring it up as if it's some miraculous admission of guilt on Bungie's part, and the fanboys will all snap out of it and realize "Oh! I understand! Halo and Xbox suck, PC is the best!".

[edit] In fact, here's my explanation. Again.

Stigmata said:
He was saying that in order to get a game that's fun to play over and over again, even on the same levels, you have to create a set of AI and combat dynamic systems that are re-usable throughout an entire game, but which also allow for the exact same confrontation to play out in many different ways, showing you a unique result every single time. What differs between one battle and the next is what you're up against, what you've got on your side, and where you're fighting. But if you don't have the framework to allow for unique outcomes every single time, the entire game is going to feel like one battle played out a thousand times.

THERE.

[exit2] Again, I apologize for coming off like an asshole. But it really, really irks me when people take things so blatantly out of context.

I don't remember, numerous people have told me many times that the quote is "taken out of context". That's why I have the damn quote in my sig, so people take it out of context, that doesn't make it any less true or real. I know that he didn't mean to say the game is 30 seconds over and over again. Why would he say that at all? I simply found the quote highly amusing when I came across it watching a making of movie. Halo is repetitive and here is a developer who said exactly that although not meaning to. Don't get your panties in a bunch :LOL:\

Oh btw what position is Jaime Griesemer on Halo 3? Design Lead again? Because I can add that tidbit to the quote :D

Nutcrackr > Stigmata's overreaction.
 
Halo is such an overhyped series.

Makes me mad people lavish it with so much undue praise.

:(

[edit] Alright, now that I know you haven't sigged it for all the reasons other people do, I'm okay with it :) I just get tired of people thinking it proves Halo sucks, is all.

Or perhaps some people look for different things from their fps? Wouldn't that be crazy!?

Halo is only repetitive if you play on an easy setting and are not very good at it ;)
