Wow.
I'm so glad they brought back Zanzibar.

[rockgremlin]

The Japanese love Halo because they change the color of the armor to pink, and make the Master Chief look like a Power Ranger. :haha:

Elephant?

From the Bungie Weekly Update: 08/10/07

Dojorkan asks,

1) The Elephant, so far we know you can spawn players in there, but will it do the same for vehicles? Just like any other Light Vehicle spawn?

------ There is already a Mongoose in there by default, so yes.



DarkSim asks,

1. And exactly how much space is there in the Elephant?

------- Enough to fit all members of both teams, two Mongooses and a Scorpion. Seriously.

[Kent K25]

Aaaah, I was thinking it was actually going to be an ELEPHANT and that was going to be REALLY weird.

Weight (empty): 45.8 kg (101 lbs)
Weight (loaded): 55.5 kg (122.5 lbs)
Cartridge: Pyrosene-V
Max. effective range: 13.4 meters (44 ft)

The M7057/DP is a standard chemical flamethrower, which projects and ignites a stream of a volatile, semi-liquid fuel. Flamethrowers are cumbersome and relatively difficult to use (psychologically as well as mechanically).

Observations:
Referring to the M7057/DP as a weapon[1] is a bit of a misnomer as the dee pea in its nomenclature indicate that it is a defoliant projector

I'm back home in California for a week and we had a nice 7 man guys night last night and played too much Halo 2. It was nice with two 42" Plasmas, but man I wish Halo 3 was all ready out for that.

Microsoft backtracks on Halo 3 LIVE ban threat
By Tom Orry - 19/09/2007 - 3:04pm GMT

MS confirms to Pro-G that consumers will not be banned for playing Halo 3 before official release.
Playing this will no longer get you banned from Xbox LIVE

Microsoft has backtracked on its original threat to ban the LIVE accounts of gamers who have purchased Halo 3 early following high street retailer Argos' admin error.

Earlier today, a Microsoft rep told Pro-G that gamers who played Halo 3 early would have their LIVE accounts banned. The rep also confirmed that Microsoft was able to ban accounts based on information collected by the console which showed when the game was played.

However, Pro-G has since been contacted by another MS rep, who said the ban only applies to Microsoft employees.

What this means for those of you lucky enough to have taken advantage of the Argos error is that you can start playing the game, if you already weren't, free from retribution.
