graphically, it looks like a vaguely improved version of Halo 2. I realise that will probably change in HD but still.

Time will tell how the gameplay mechanics have differed, if at all.

ALSO: I love how he tried to black out the names but left the kill messages on.

I'm going to buy the game for it's soundtrack only.

I am gonna be Beta testing halo 3. And besides, The Graphics aren't that good in the video cause it's a BETA. They build the basics, then test with the beta. Then when the bugs are out. They touch up with Textures, and shading more.

Oh ya, Halo 3 BETA starts May 16th and ends on June 6th.

I must say, the shield looks awesome for being based on Dx9.0 technology.

beta tests are more for technical bugs and gameplay quirks ken... not graphical improvement

Well, the Half-Life 2 beta had way worse graphics than the retail version.
But of course, had it not been leaked, the beta would have been close to the real version.

Yay for hackers!

No shit..... I was saying AFTER they get out most of the bugs in the BETA they can touch up on texturing and shading. That's more then likely how they do it.
