Before I go into this, I must make it clear that This is a no graphics bashing thread. Both Models look great and this is just to show the changes that Bungie has done to Master Chief.

First Master Chief Model Shown in E3 06 Standout Feature: Rough Edged Armor

I think that the first one looks a lot better, however, I believe that the armor will still make an appearance in the game. Perhaps in the beginning of the game you wear the same suit you wore in Halo 2 (looks a lot like the one in the 2nd pic) and then when you get to the desert levels, you get to change your suit. Or then again, Bungie could just just half-a$$ the game and get a marine in the beginning of the game say "Your new suit is a Mark VII even though it looks practically the same and doesn't have anything new added to it unlike the jump from Halo where your Mark V suit looked like a tank and didn't recharge your health to the cooler Mark VI suit in Halo 2."

The panals on the second image look kinda worse. The black in between looks the same but the metal panals look kinda muddy. And not the good kinda muddy.

LOL, QFT

The second one looks terrible in comparison. Lower resolution texture (shrunken UVs on the mapping), UV distortion, and lower poly topologgy coupled with an uglier normal map. and the reflection (environment map) doesnt mean anything, the first one had one too, it just had nothing to reflect back because it wasn't in the game world.

I think the second pic was better and I'm not bashing the graphics, but yeah it will have good graphics compared to last gen, but not compared to this gen especially with games out/coming out like Gears, Oblivion, Rainbow 6, Mass Effect, Bioshock, Blacksite, and Assassins Creed. It will have good graphics they just wont be quite up to par with this gen.

Can't live with the fact? Halo is seriously over hyped/over rated by some people. I'm not saying it's a bad game but people make it seem a lot better than it actually is, and no where near one of the best games ever like some people say.

Yes, I think I'll always like the first concept better. Much more detailed. I don't mind the "final" concept, but I'd like it a lot more if the metal plates didn't have such a muddy look to them. Then again, why should we care so much about a character model we'll see approx. 5% of the time we play this game... Paint him pink and orange for all I care. That's the magic of FPS's.

hmmm they look pretty similar detail wise... I actually like how the first one is lit better, less new gen "shiny look" on it. IMO the graphics on Halo 3 look great. Groundbreaking? no, especially not the environments. But it still looks great. And it will play great too for sure if the beta is any indication.... really looking forward to the final chapter.

the character models are great, i preffer the 06 one for some reason, probably the lighting though. The thing with people bashing halo graphicaly is that the enviroments aren't very detailed and it makes the models stand out too much, which isn't a good thing. Just my opinion as a graphics designer.

I hope that you're being sarcastic, he makes a valid point and one that I totally agree with. Halo is good, but it's really nothing special.

Halo 3 is probably going to be a good game, but it really doesn't look all that innovative. IMO there's nothing astounding about H3 that no other game has acomplished yet or anything. I don't understand why there is so much hype behind it.

yea they played it safe really. And made a game that has nothing very special and new to offer. Doesnt take away from the fact that it will most likely be a solid gaming experience still. I will probably end up buying it but i wont be standing in line or preordering.

It doesnt seem like there was much change on the character model, its just the graphics are much nicer, and the 360 displays it this way, and some color tweaking.
