Halo2/3 chat.

I don't think a lot of you guys (or girls) understand the cell processor. I recommend www.arstechnica.com. They always have great articles/papers on stuff like this though it might get a bit technical for some. I also don't think you should underestimate IBM when it comes to the powerpc. I'm not talking about the stripped down one that Apple had rushed and turned into their G5 chip. I mean the one closer to the Power4 chip and more importantly the Power5 (ooohhhh the Power5. Both chips will be similar as in Cell has a powerpc core and anywhere from 2 to 7 specified "assistants" cpu's and the Xbox2 supposedly has a few multi core powerpc chips that will probably be as many as the PS3 as in they will probably have the same amount of cpu's/cores.

What i really want from Halo 3 is Multi Campaign (4-16) on Lan or LIVE and LIVE multiplayer from 32-50+. The rest i trust Bungie and MS. I look forward to the XBOX 2 and the PS3. The Nintendo Revolution (as it is rumored to be called) will be a very hard sell to me.

 

BTW, i thought playing the Arbiter was one of the saving graces of the campaign. When it happened i yelled out "this is the f*&^$#& coolest game ever!" I don't think they can equal that surprise now that they've done it. If you get to play as a Brute it wouldn't surprise me in the 3rd Halo though it would still be cool.

 

I think Halo 2 would have been much better without the arbitor, i thought that Halo 2 was gonna be like the best game ever until i got to the arbitor levels, i just wasnt motivated to fight for some dumb aleins. i even stopped playing for a week because i was so disgusted by it. I think the halo seris should be about the mc and only the mc.


Can anyone please tell me why i cant download the latest episode of Red vs. Blue. Is it still not availible or something.

 

playing as anyone but mc in halo3 would be sh*t. i guess now they may have to include the arbiter but playble brutes, come on that just going too far. whats the point of playing as someone that you are set out to kill?!?

 

Unfortunately as technology gets better, and the capabilities for larger, longer level games maybe there. There is still the problem of time constraints. Games (especially Halo) aren’t just made in a few months. If we were to see a multi-campaign game i would be very surprised.
As for the Xbox 2's multi-core processor, it will have 3 3.5ghz core CPU's, one CPU will be a host and the other two geometry CPU. These together will combine with a single GPU core.
The patent for this was released sometime ago. If you really want to know about this stuff, go through all 94 pages of it here http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph...D&d=PG01&s1=GPU&s2=console&OS=GPU+AND+console .
About Red V Blue, when ever I go to download episodes off there, there always seems to be problems with bandwidth, I just try later and it usually works for me.
Oh and Burnzilla don’t jump to conclusions about people you haven’t even met.

 

I agree, Sublique, the cloak sucked badly. If the Arbiter is supposed to save the Covenant in times of trouble, at least get him the LATEST and GREATEST equipment lol.

I AM starting to see that it was a bad idea to put the Arbiter in

Hey... does anyone have the Halo 2 poster? Its sweet.

 

ya they should have given him the new suits.

i made a few changes the 0 at the barrel and the bullets and the parentheses for the triger.

how would i put this under the grey line like people do and like you did haloxbox i don't know how. like under your post and this line right below my text.

 

Well they dont have to include the Arbitor in Halo 3. They could have cut scenes or excerps about wat he is doin kinda like how they did that with Cpt Keyes in Halo 1. He went to the Flood place but u didnt play as him. just my opinion.

 

yeah cutscenes of arbiter would be good, can miranda or arbiter transport cortana cos mc is too far away to come back and get her

 

Sublique, are you talking about signatures? You can set those on the my account page

 

colton were it says your dog works for a blind guy or whatever

 

andy2000, Miranda and the Arbiter cant transport cortana because they do not have the crystaline structure that she needs to function, as inthe MC's armour it is built right in.

 

lol, well to tell you the truth, the gun isnt even MY masterpiece.

Some guy on Bungie did it.

And what's with all of these ideas that the player should be able to play Cortana? Yeah, it would be fun doing all of those tough math problems IN AN ALIEN TOUNGE in less than 5 seconds.

But, yeah Sublique, its just ur sig. Just go to my account page, its there.

OH AND ON CTV @ May 13 12:30 AM THEYRE UNVEILING THE NEXT XBOX! HERES MORE INFO:

i can't wait till i can see it. PS3 is going so far that you can select different languages how insane is that. 4th. paragraphhttp://www.ps3land.com/news/article77.php

no offense to those who think its a good idea but i wouldn't go that far. just my opinion but it could be a good idea i don't know.

 

yeah i think thats takin it a bit far
thanks Darkreapr, but now how are they gunna get cortana back

 

Yeah I think that the next generation consoles will find that their products will not be as successful as they initially expect. This is because they may be trying to implement technology that is much to the detriment to their overall product.

 

After the covenant invasion thing on earth is over is probably when they will send in sips to get cortana. Or she might find away to jump highcharity back to earth. But i dont think she can w/o the forerunner ship giving off energy.

 

No, she needs the Chief to get anywhere outside the system.

 

you know how the covenant city was there what if they found a way to get her on there then they used slipspace to go back to earth. we are talking about how to get cortana could back right? just making sure. or if the arbiter gets a new suit and brings her back. plus how would sgt. johnson and keys daughter get back. im sure they would find a way to get cortana back. or the moniter could accept cortana in and take her to the covanant city. these are just ideas. don't snap on me.

 

Ok the Arbitor is not taking Cortana. that is goin to far. he needs to be content with just being in the storyline.LOL. and she is already in the covenant city computer thingamabob so i think slipspace would prolly do it. unless Mc gets back there and saves her.
