Video: Halo 3 saved film features

by Richard Mitchell { Aug 24th 2007 at 5:00PM }

Gamersyde, wonderful media mongers that they are, have posted a nice video detailing some of the fun you can have with Halo 3 saved films. This particular demonstration is being performed by Bungie's own Brian Jarrard. The presentation is similar to the one given to handsome journalists like us at E3 earlier this year. In the video, Jarrard shows off the ability to move the camera around as well as change camera angles. He also takes some time to pause or slow down the action for dramatic effect. The video is cut quite a bit, so you won't see the whole presentation, but seeing saved films in action as well as the level of detail present in the latest build of Halo 3 is definitely exciting.

Now all we need is a video of Forge in action and we'll be set.

[Thanks, Nol]

Looks amazing.

It would be nice if Halo 3 had a third person feature, rather than first person only.

Then again, people will attack me with " HALOZ IS FER FPS!!DUH!!"

Check out about 00:53 seconds into the movie!
In the background, it looks like theres the metal "shells" from the first trailer!

Awesome!

I've seen a lot of levels already, think Ima take it easy...don't want see everything before I actually play it!

Game of the Year Confirmed! Seriously how good does this game look. Whoever still thinks this is a High-Def version of Halo 2 needs their eyes checked or is a Sony-Fanboy.

TORO @ Aug 24th 2007 5:21PM

Hey that's my tv! Looks nice as always hehe

Token @ Aug 24th 2007 5:25PM

Sweet, can wait. Isn't the release date the 25 of September? Because I just pre-ordered the Limited Edition today and the sales clerk said she call me on the 18th.

colin @ Aug 24th 2007 5:29PM

has MC always bled?

Zeus the God @ Aug 24th 2007 5:30PM

This game is going to be FAR from Game of the Year.

Token @ Aug 24th 2007 5:30PM

Colin, yes.

TORO @ Aug 24th 2007 5:41PM

I also agree that this game should be game of the year. I personally think Bioshock was a lil overhyped with all those immaculate high scores. Sure it looks and plays nice, the story is good, etc., buuut, that's it! I'm enjoying Bioshock but after I beat once or twice, back to blockbuster you go. There's no replayability, how many times can you honestly go through the levels, it's not that long a game.

Anyways, Halo 3 has an excellent plot as we all know. Not only that, but the campaign looks like it's going to be amazing. Not to mention you can play it over and over again with 3 other players! Online, offline, with your mother who cares. That's a huge plus on the social cooperative experience.

How about multiplayer. Holy shit there's so many different game types! And Forge will only add to that customizability. You can also customize your pink Spartan even more!

Replays, image sharing, video sharing, expansive multiplayer levels, huge vehicle wars, cqc battles, plethora of weapons, equipment, man cannons, tea baggin'...man if one game hasn't done it all, it's got to be Halo.

And Richard, " HALOZ IS FER FPS!!DUH!!"

Fontez @ Aug 24th 2007 5:42PM

Zeus... If you said stupid shit like that to me in person... YOU wouldn't be very FAR from a severe ass-whopping...

But since you're a hypocrite who is going to purchase Halo 3 anyway... I'll just have to do that on-line...

All who think this jerk off should be banned for consistently providing his extremely pesimistic and not to mention abolutely useless and unappreciated opinion... Say Aye

Token @ Aug 24th 2007 5:47PM

Very nice Fontez. I was about to light him up.

BWT, Aye.

erivera3 @ Aug 24th 2007 5:48PM

aye

drsilverworm @ Aug 24th 2007 6:05PM

Aye.

Halo 3 is going to be the game of the next three years, most likely. Hell, I'm still playing halo 2...

fartymarty84 @ Aug 24th 2007 6:08PM

aye, halo 3 is going to rock

bartman007 @ Aug 24th 2007 6:07PM

Am i the only one who noticed the multicolored controllers (while watching it the second time of course) and also the weapon MC has on his back at the end thats green???

erivera3 @ Aug 24th 2007 6:12PM

Aye, Halo 3 will own all, quite easily too I might add.

Token @ Aug 24th 2007 6:15PM

Bartman,

That weapon with the glowing green light was the Fuel Rod Cannon.

Grindstone @ Aug 24th 2007 6:24PM

I'll hold him down for you, Fontez. We'll show this god "Zeus" a good sense of humility.

I expect the rest of you to kick him while I have him pinned down.

NukeAssault @ Aug 24th 2007 6:29PM

Makes me wanna play Halo 3 in 3rd person. lol

Who Flang Poo @ Aug 24th 2007 6:32PM

AYE!!!!!

Halo 3 is gonna kick ass!

finnith @ Aug 24th 2007 6:32PM

kenney jimenez @ Aug 24th 2007 8:32PM

and halo 3 might be game of the year, the only doubt i have is if the games runs out some how by the time i get lol.

Dragod @ Aug 24th 2007 8:49PM

Lol, at 2:08 he swipes his hand it and looks like he smacks the warthog and it explodes...

Dragod @ Aug 24th 2007 8:49PM

Lol, at 2:08 he swipes his hand it and looks like he smacks the warthog and it explodes...

Jeff Holland @ Aug 24th 2007 9:03PM

Aye. And I am really looking forward to Halo.
Btw, CoD4 Beta is awesome, hope you guys get in.

chris @ Aug 24th 2007 9:10PM

Big deal. So he stated his opinion. He hates the game. I bet the only ass you ever kicked was your pet cat anyway. Play the game and stop writing checks with your mouth that your ass couldn't cash in your lifetime. We all know nerds and geeks are pussies.

BlackBeltJones @ Aug 24th 2007 10:09PM

amazing

Token @ Aug 24th 2007 10:37PM

Way to step it up and show us who's boss, uh Chris?

Wow! I loved the idea of the ability to save replays and watch them and edit the videos when I first heard of it. And as far as I can tell from this video, it looks great! I wonder if it would be possible to save a replay of each mission you undertake through the entire single player campaign and edit it together to make a Halo 3 'movie'?
Hmmm...

ryan @ Aug 26th 2007 3:24AM

aye, Zeus stated his opinion on a fanboy site. of course the fucko is gonna be eaten alive.

he preordered Halo 3. he makes little to no sense with his opinion.
