    It took forever for my computer to load that (my comp sucks, getting a new one in a few days :D), but it was worth it.

    Buying it the first day the maps come out.

    Yeah, i believe there was a link to only play the video on
    that bungie page.
    Seems pretty cool.
    I didn't get the dude speaking slowly though...
    kinda meaningless
    Ghost Town seems better than in the pics
    Blackout in my opinion looked exactly like a human version of Guardian
    and the one with the man cannons (guessing it's avalanche) was the sweetest

    I swear if one more person claims blackout is the same as guardian ill go nuts adn theyll wake up in cuba...they are completely different.the only thing those two share is a middle platform,THATS IT.
    There is so much more to lock/blackout than you can see in this vid trust me.
    Theres about as much similarity between those two as there is between avalanche and containment
    Anyway,nice vid and ill be DLing them on the day they come out :)

    That looks awesome. Any body notice that part where there are two mancannons that look really close to each other? I'm guessing that's on Avalanche but where?

    Possibly a way through the cliff divider in the middle?
    It appears to be two mancannons that fire you over a chasm that go both ways so perhaps an added way to send some infantry in while you bombard the shiny bases with your scorpions and your wraiths mwahahahahahahaha!

    It seems like somewhere away from the base. Probably with a death space in the middle.

    No. You're simply retarded. Guardian was the supposed spiritual-successor to Halo 2's Lockout, which it completely failed at. Blackout is the exact remake of Lockout, with tweaks here and there to balance out gameplay with the new factors that Halo 3 has brought in. There is no way that Blackout will play anything like Guardian, so shut your mouth before you piss the wrong people off.

    Avalanche is defientally going to make me start playing BTB again. Sidewinder was awesome in Halo 1, and I hope Avalanche plays the same way. The biggest thing about the video, tho, is that Ghost Town has exceeded my expectations at being a good map, from what I saw. I honestly thought that it was going to be a horrible map to play on, but it looks like it'll be a fun map, while still allowing that competitiveness that we're all too familiar with in Halo 2.

    omg i cant wait.

    I tried to watch it on Xbox.com, thanks to Major Nelson...but for some reason my Windows Media Player can't open those videos...thank you Bungie for being sensible and using a normal non-streaming format.

    One word about the video. I can't wait for the new maps...holy crap! Ok maybe 9.

    The video wasn't that great. But I now realize that the chasm spoken about in older updates was in fact a part of Avalanche. I'm curious to see how that plays out.

    Is it just me or does the quality in the video look lower than the quality on the images. The maps actually seem to look worse than they will when we actually play them. Its normally the other way around.

    Anyway they look really good. I already know how immensely popular blackout and avalance will be. And ghost town is really starting to grow on me. Its like a mini Last Resort.

    i believe there in a cave somewhere in the middle as a kind of risky short cut!

    Meh.. the video was ok. When I saw it I got all excited expecting lots of gameplay. I'm still gonna get the maps on the 15th, the video only makes me want them even more.

    How rude.
    i was just stating my opinion,
    If you have a problem with it,
    that's your problem.
    No need to go blabbing on and on about
    why I'm wrong, but you're right.

    EVERYONE and i mean EVERYONE i have seen saying guardian is lockout has no idea what they are talking about and some havent even played lockout.
    They are completely different and many peopleme included are sick of people whining about it.
    And he wasnt blabbing on as you put it,he was retorting your opinion.
    Its called debate.In fact by bringing it back up YOU are making it go on longer than it has to,so you are the one blabbing on

    And long as were being pointless and immature
    "cough" owned "cough"
