I have just watched the Halo 3 Dev video over at TeamXbox.com (Love you Gamespot but I dont want to pay for HD videos, Teamxbox has free hd vidz. But Gamespot rulezz).  It was not what I expected but I am by no means disappointed.  The game looks amazing.  They really are stressing the Brutes this time, which I have no problem with but I do like a good Elite beat down ("Can you stick it" Cortana).  In the Vid they show some footage of people getting ripped apart by Brutes, which suprised me.  Again I have NO problem with that kind of violence, but I was suprised because I didnt think MS or Bungie Higher Archy would do that kind of realism.  It was awesome they showed an Elite with a Plasma Sword chopping the leggs of a Brute off, A brute smashing an erect marine over the head with his huge club/battle axe thing. (Which I will refer to as "B.P.S.", which stands for "Brute Pimping Stick"....Cheesy, I know. Anyway, I would like to see that kind of realism in Halo 3 (Brutes are huge ruthless beasts, Its normal for them to rip enemies into stackable peices)...So, I just summerized a video probably all of you have seen so I feel great....(Splinter Cell: DA=Patch=Hell Yeah)
