Just downloaded it to have a ganda and I gotta say I'm not impressed in the slightest. The graphics are okay but Metroid Prime is far more detailed and immersive, the guns look quite literally weedy, kinda like you're firing automatic spud guns. The on rails sections look quite simply dull and the voice acting is just laughable. I nearly pieced myself when I heard the big butch American guy in the opening FMV say "we're going in"

Of course what i just wrote is all most likely lies and I could have thought it looks really rather amazing and it might have just decided for me that I will be getting an Xbox in the coming months.

You decide.

Oh and I recommend you all download the clip, if only to laugh at the American's whooping and hollering everytime a gun's fired.

I think they were audience members from a Jerry Springer show invited to see the Microsoft demos.

It's early days yet. It's already been put back to 2004. I can't Bungee releasing it unless it at least matches the original.

I'm guessing you liked the look of the Halo 2 trailer then, Mr Tilitawhirl.

It does look rather impressive does'nt it....

Should see some demo footage at E3. I hope.

That's what i've been looking at, 8 minutes of footage of some Bungie guy playing it from the press conference.

It looks rather sweet.
