This is what they have wrote

"Armour

Both Spartan and Elite character types are playable in multiplayer, but now it appears each comes with additional customization options/ For the Spartans, various standard MJOLNIR is there, of course, plus Cobra, Intruder, Ninja, and Regulator types. Similarly, the Elites have their stanard armour, plus new Predator and Raptor types.

Game Modes

Again, everything you'd expect from Halo 2 is back - Juggernaut, Oddball, King of the Hill, Capture the Flag and all that jazz - but there are some new modes loosely based on custom games some players made up in Halo 2. VIP is sort of new, but was included in the Beta, so we should all be familiar with how it works; Infection on the other hand, is brand new. It's Humans vs Flood starting off with one Flood player agains all the humans; every player who dies at the hands of a Flood becomes a Zombie themselves. There are however a couple of game types we'll admit we know nothing about - Tank Ball and Tank Flag.

Custom Games (options)

Damage Resistance
Shield Multiplyer
Shield Recharge Rate
Immune to Headshots
Grenade Counts
Infinite Ammo
Weapon Pickup Disabled
Player speed (25, 50, 75, 95, 100, 110, 125, 150, 200, 300%)
Player Gravity (50%, 100%, 200%)
Vehicle Use
Motion Tracker Range (10m, 25m, 75m, 100m, 150m)
Appearance
- Vis Effects (black glow, team glow, white glow)
-Active Camo (Good Camo that might fool an elite, poor camo that might fool a grunt, invisible)
Indestrucable Vehicles

Multiplayer Maps

Epitaph
Last Resort
Shrine
Chill
Construct
Cyberdyne
Isolation
Warthog Inc.
Guardian

Single Player

Jungle
Base
Outskirts
Voi
FloodVoi
Wasteland
Citadel
High Charity
Halo

Weapons

Flamethrower

The Flamethrower is a returning weapon from the PC version of the original Halo - it has a short range but has the bonus of causeing continual damage.

Smoke Bomb

Not a grenade, but a deployable piece of equipment which will fog out your opponents.

Energy Sword

Has Depleting Battery

Fuel Rod

Is back, but might be Campaign only, although may be accesable through custom games.

Brute Weapons

Gravity Hammer

Same hammer from the end of Halo 2 that tartarus was using.

Excavator

No info.

Co-OP

Only two players may play split-screen on the same Xbox 360.

Up to four players over System Link or Xbox Live."

Thats all i'm gonna say cause I can't be bothered typing more.

The Mag is called Xbox World 360 over in the UK, so go get it if you want more.

[l=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voi]Anyways when i saw the word Voi i had to Wiki it and this is what i found. So it looks like the flood are coming to earth, or are already there in halo 3.[/l]

Also, this is the song list of the songs in Halo 2. look at the second last song its 'Road To Voi'. You heard it here first the first level in HALO 3 is en route to Voi [Jeff Gerstmann Hype Voice]. Also the first Halo 3 trailer is Voi because Bungie confirmed that in that trailer Mount Killimanjaro was in the background so its like a 99.9% chance it is. Seems like the Ark is in Africa (Big surprise)

Sounds interesting. I know the magazine your talking about, they did a good story on Assassin's Creed last month (I live in the US, but they sell the magazine at Border's), with lots of new info, so I am inclined to believe this actually. Of course, then they could just be talking about the stuff that the modders found, it is hard to say.

Well I'm glad you enjoyed it, even if that is a little disturbing. Still, I find this interesting. People complain about the 360's tons of shooters but they are always good. Well usually good, the occassional Hour of Victory not withstanding.

Only 2 player split screen multiplayer? 4 player split screen was the only reason why I prefered Halo to Gears as a party game. 1 on 1 just isn't as fun.

Otherwise I like what I'm hearing.

well, if you read the last upate at bungie.net, they tease you that you're going to be actually fighting on killamanjaro:"However,the scrutineers went wild. What was that explosion reflecting in his visor (hint: it's not an explosion, it's something quite ordinary) and was the mountain in the background geometry (yes) and those clouds volumetric (no, although we do have volumetric stuff elsewhere in the game) and could you go all the way to that mountain (yes, but not without some unforeseen High Impact Halo antics)? Was the mountain Kilimanjaro (who's to say)? And that grass in the lower left looks fake (it's actually a treeline, in the very far distance)."http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=12625than i understand why there are 9 missions. The mission has a primary objective, but allot of secundairy objectives are sure to be expected.

those are only unnanounced MP maps. You're forgetting snowbound, valhalla and high ground. Bungie in a weekly update said atleast 16 mp maps.

I never heard of that game mode. What do you do in it?

And in the "High Charity" level, I bet you play as the Arbiter. I mean, MC already was already on the Covenant planet in Halo2, so I think the Arbiter is making a stand against the Brutes, while MC is trying to stop the Ark from activating.

I know! There is so much variety in this god damn game that it brings the BETA to shame.

Bungie has never let us down. Halo3 will be one of the best games of 2007.

The Truth knows the truth (they wouldnt call him that for no reason) and you never know he could be lighting the halos for a good cause all along to help humanity in the long run or some **** because it shows that the flood is in Earth, Vio to be exact so the flood has gotten loose. And i have a feeling MC dies. And for all the people saying that this is a lie and i should scan it, my scanner is messed, still not satisfied wait for E3 only 2 days
