Ok I promised friday and here it is
Its a picture of a Warthog and if you move the image slowly in Quiktime you make out the phrase-"x.xx.713>ghost.713/non-auth/activity ongoing"
Strange.
Any thoughts on what it could mean?
7-13 is the last day of E3 so could that mean something?

*sigh*
Not intended to be action packed like yours was.
Juat to show that the good ol' MC still owns Mountian Dew after the last installment.

I'm sure our resident Halo-holics will get a kick out of this http://www.joystiq.com...leaked-halo-3-beta-footage/"Leaked" Halo 3 Beta footage. Why "Leaked"? Because I'm naturally one of these cynical people that doesn't believe for a second it is an easy task sneaking something like this out. Whoever did this will get their arses handed to them on a plate, because I'm pretty sure it's easy to trace these things. Oh well. It's there for you now, kids so enjoy if you haven't already.

Microsoft never has concealed anything, everything for the 360's design to even this. If some thing's "leaked" about Microsoft, you can bet your ass it's true. Meanwhile, if some thing's leaked from Nintendo, you can bet it's false.
Oh and it looks exactly like Halo 2 with shader 3.0 and the bloom.

Bubble Shield could be fun but I wouldn't really want to use it. Therwe is only one per level and it will be a toy that all of the newbies run for, much like rockets, swords, and snipers.

Ok, ummm that would be a retarded move there bud. And you will want to use it. Say for example you are playing a nice game of SWAT CTF. You are running for the flag and you start to get knicked in the bakc with a BR. You will place that bubble shield down or die. The best part about it is that you can walk out and pop off a few rounds then return into it for safety. Also it has not been confirmed wether or not there will be only 1 on each level. HS- No my friend it shall never stop, just think of the possibilities.

Yes it has ZM. Here is the story from Bungie themselves: First, I’ll address some of the panic about the balance issues inherent in the implementation of an all-new feature. I read many mails and posts about how Bubble Shields would littler the landscape like an Igloo village. Well, they won’t. A piece of equipment will be a rare and valuable find. It will be located, you will pick it up and you will choose when and where to deploy it. As you can see in the HUD, it’s indicated that you’re carrying it. Pressing X will drop it – not throw it.
In the old alpha footage you’re watching, the shield generator actually rolled downhill and the player protected inside it had to walk backwards with it to enjoy its shelter. In the beta, it won’t roll. We’re still playing around with things like that. It’s also possible to simply walk inside the shield and fight the inhabitant. It only protects them from explosions and projectiles. Vehicles and people can wander right through. If you die without deploying it, you’ll drop it, just like a gun or ‘nades. Someone else can then pick it up and use it. I also wasnt reffering to Xxox Live games either. I meerly ment that everybody I play against sucks except for you okay. Happy now? If I do play on Live and SWAT, it would be suicide to not use it. Not to mention that ive already used it in the form of Halo: Custom Edition along with the Mongoose and the Spartan Laser.

I stand corrected abou the bubble shield havign mroe then one, but It would still be useful in game types other then SWAT. Yes n00bs may use it, but hey everyone will se, it just a new item that people will want to try out and expirement with.
True thatit moves, but that is a good thing. You could deploy it then exit it and pop off a few roudns into your enemy. Don't view as a completely bad thing.

So, here's an interesting thing...Microsoft's chief financial officer, Chris Liddell, has confirmed that the company expects platform exclusive Halo 3 to boost Xbox 360 sales when the game hits the shops later this year. Apologies for the short comment but... No shit. In other news... The sky is blue.

Everyone was thinking it, and you just said it. Name that quote?
I am itching to try my hand at some Snowbound, and that waterfall level.
