First off the xbox360 will have 3 proccesors 3.2ghz each. So it will be faster than the ps3 just a little bit less graphics wise because its coming out before ps3.

Second, not a high performance machine? The xbox360 will have better graphics and sound than any computer for at least 6 months or more after it launches.

Back on topic...... I think they should have tons of multiplayer options for halo 3. Vehicle damage option, infinite grenades, etc. Four player co op would be sweet too. But the greatest thing i would like to see in halo 3 besides 4 player co op is a map maker 8) . You could submit your maps to xbox live and your friends could download them or simply take your removable HD out and take it to your friends to give them the maps. Now that would be f***ing awesome.

Or there could be a co-op where it is like a mission, but some people are marines (all varieties, including one MC) and the rest are covenant (all varieties). They would play through a campaign map, and when the marines pass through a certain point, all the covie players that they kill spawn farther up the map.

Just an idea.

Or you could "author content on PC and feed it over to your 360 over the [xbox live] network."

for halo 3 i want the game to be less noobed up,make smaller hit boxes,remove the magnetic bullets. also an idea for the tank is that you need 2 ppl to fully operate it. one seat is for driving and the other seat for gunning. This way one guy cant drive around and camp,you need 2 ppl to use the tanks full power. and also speed the tank up a bit its too slow now.
Also if they include the BR back in they should make it more powerful,able to kill in 5 shots or 3 headshots. Also in halo 3 get rid of the magnum,put some kind of pistol in that is stronger or better in some way.

p.s. the tank for sp you would need to do co-operation mode in order to drive the tank and shoot it,that would be alot of fun just driving down the bridge in metropolis with your buddy in the gunner seat blasting at everything

They can't kill Halo as a FPS, but remember halo was an RTS first.

I hope, in Halo 3, that things are a lot darker, and more sinister. Humanity has their back to the wall, their fleet and empire are crushed, people are dying across the galaxy, billions of people are dead and hundreds of planets. They aren't gonna be cracking sarcastic comments to the death.

At least like the old E3 demo, where they showed wounded marines, to show the costs of the war. This game isn't designed for 5 year olds. It's target audience is the same as Black Hawk Down.

Uh, did you ever read TFoR? Or FS?

Plus, morale is the key to battlefield survival. You think no one ever cracked a joke in any war?

I want the rocket launcher to be able to lock on to people as well. It gets really annoying, when someone keeps on dodging the rockets you shoot at them.
