I think the sound is a huge improvement. It now sounds like REAL gunshots when they're far away: sort of a firecracker sound. If you're not near battle, it's a really cool effect.

My only question is if the covenant Sword will be in Halo 3. It's not in any of the maps.
Yes. One of the podcasts mentioned they held the sword and the pistol out of the beta.

Nice. Hopefully they'll make the pistol more powerful again. I hated its castration in Halo 2.

Same here. Waiting for cooler chip and reports that it greatly lessens the red ring of death occurrence, a price drop and Halo 3 before even thinking seriously about getting one.

Well, Halo 3 is coming, and a price drop will eventually happen....whether they ever make the console more reliable is another story though. If they don't, I won't buy. No skin off my nose, plenty of shit to play on the other systems.

i was just making light of the situation. Considering my 360 just ate my gears disc, and my brother calling me yesterday telling me his console of 2 months old JUST did the same thing as well


I can't blame your reluctance anyway
