sure we do

so far we've seen alpha builds that stink and cgi trailers that rock ... but it could very well be like the pictures you showed. we didn't see the final build though (except for you...) But i wouldn't dare to argue with people that mistake hopes for facts (like people with a certain religion). i'm more of a realist: i'll know how it looks when i see the final build...

as much as i love MGS...dont hijack the thread, were not comparing jumps in MGS, the TC wanted to show the jumps in halo, he didnt say it made the best jumps a single series has seen. BTW, u could probably find a shot of mgs2 that would look quite similar to MGS3...then again maybe not, mgs2 ran at 60fps constant, snake eater 30fps due to the crazy addition of detail.

For me, strangely enough, the leap from Halo to Halo 2 seems bigger than Halo 2 to Halo 3...

EDIT: Why are you comparing the PC version of Halo to Halo 2 on XBox?

i like halo and all, and im a 360 fan, but that first halo 3 pic is pretty crappy in my opinion, mabye its just me, but it looks pretty damn bad, but the second one is good.  And i agree with above, jump from halo 1 to 2, is much bigger then 2 to 3.

The trailer was rendered in real time. They even made a video where they moved it all around from different angles to prove it.

Those Halo 3 shots are (more or less) their unachieved goal; it isn't an accurate comparison as they aren't "real". Currently, Halo 3 looks like this: It's making its way, but it isn't there yet.

Yes, the multiplayer graphics look like that, but the single player looks like the first Halo 3 pic the TC posted.

Proof? That E306 trailer was completely designed as their target goal. So far, the only real stuff we've seen of Halo 3 has been multiplayer shots and the very early Et Tu Brute? footage.

I loved when they released the MC screen and haters screamed "DOWNGRADE! E3 trailer looked way better!" before bungie simply said "yeah... it's the same freakin' model." Owned.

I don't care as much for graphics as the gameplay in Halo 3's singleplayer.  Halo 2's campaign was awful, excluding co-op with friends.

Based on progress, Bungie doesn't shoot itself in the foot over graphics. The early Halo 2 trailer wasn't quite met but it came extremely close, there is no reason to think Halo 3 won't pretty much parallel the E3 trailer. Besides, EGM, who did the first real preview on Halo 3, attests that they saw SP being played at the graphical level of the E3 trailer, issue number 210.

I said the first pic, not the one from the E3 trailer. The pic I was referring to was released in November, and Bungie said it was from the current build of Halo 3's singleplayer.

1UP said the entire Et Tu Brute footage spanned 2-7 months of development... yet none of it looked even close to that good? :?

Graphical polishing takes second place to gameplay and AI testing, which is what they've been working on, things that actually effect the game.

It released in December. 7 months before December is May... thus not a year ago. [QUOTE="Spartan070"] Graphical polishing takes second place to gameplay and AI testing, which is what they've been working on, things that actually effect the game.

You're going off-topic. I was discussing graphical quality, and you mentioned how EGM stated that it was as impressive as the E3 trailer... yet they only added vegetation a month ago. I fail to see how that makes sense.

Bungie doesn't use CG for cutscenes, they never have. Everything is using the ingame engine.

Firstly, all good there is Master Chef, when do you see him in the game? You dont. Look at the pre alpha in game screens, it looks like crap, as of now.

The doubters of halo 3 grafix will be owned hard and are morons. We have all seen what the 360 is capable of grafix wise (Geow) and we all know bungie knows how to make pretty grafix: see halo 1 and 2. So why would anyone in their right mind i.e. not a blind cow, think this game isnt gonna own graficly? Bungie has unlimited time and money the grafix are garanteed to be top notch. Now as for the gameplay? Thats anyones guess.

Halo 3 just has success written all over it. Halo was put together in an amazing amount of time. Halo 2 was the worst crunch Bungie has ever faced to get something finished, and was still AAA across the board. Halo 3 has had all the time they need. They've never been this far ahead on anything so far away from it's launch. They're even starting voice acting now.
