Now i'm all excited for Halo 2 and it won't be out for a llooooonnnnggg time. BAH!
Ok - So I purchased OXM today (Boo! I hear Mav cry) but I had to for this video. My computer is just a load of boll-eck and could'nt run the video when it was released - I had to wait for OXM to get it.
And my god. It looks amazing. No actually - It looks exceptionally amazing. The graphics are fooking brilliant - The grunts are fooking brilliant - The marines are fooking brilliant - THE WEAPONS YOU GET TO SEE ARE FOOKING BRILLIANT.
Plasma grenades and double uzis and rockets on warthogs - God. Halo 2 looks amazing.
And those Brutes! Wow! They look and sound pure evil yet look so cool.
And don't you just love it where 'cheif punchs that elite out of the ghost and flys off?
I WANT HALO 2 NOW!

Looks for a 3.5kb and can only see broadband.

That's the problem.
This MIGHT be your problem :D

Why using 2 different accounts? That's like wearing incontinence pants over the boxers...
Talking of which, once I find work, I'll be picking up one of these with the original Halo. That in itself is great in multiplayer when I play it at my friend's house.
The thing is, while the multiplayer is great fun, some of the tactics are lost on splitscreen. You put a sniper crosshair over someone's head, they're going to see it and move out of the way.
You get into a vehicle and they hear the engine noises and change their tactics instantly (leaving you as a sitting duck).
Surprise attacks don't work as well because they know exactly where you are etc...
My friend has 2 TV's, both in adjacent rooms, a crossover cable is easy to come by, plugging the two Xbox's togther should spice up the mix that little bit.
Imagining it is one thing, getting a job is another.
But those of you who've gone it will know what I mean! :-)

Meh, I change my boxers every day...
I wonder if they'll feature in the final version?
