Halo 3 Epsilon video: Phantom drop ship... ASPLODE!

More Covenant pwnage coming your way today. This Halo 3 leaked video from the Epsilon test shows us of the Phantom drop ship deploying its passengers onto a hapless victim down below. What's the catch? Well, the hunter becomes the hunted, apparently. And that big hulking Phantom ship gets shot down in a blazing explosion. "ASSSPLODE!" as Strong Bad would put it.

We're treated to the glory of all those explosions, pretty lights, and of course, the sudden realization that even destroyed drop ships must eventually be reclaimed by gravity. Nice physics on that too. But of course, you'd have to see the Halo 3 vid yourself - it's only less than a minute anyways. Can Michael Bay do something like this? Well, Bungie Studios surely isn't lacking in the asplode department. September 25, here we come!

Awesome explosion effects. I'd like to see the Sony fanboys who usually sulk over here try to bring down this.

What was the first player doing in this? Looks like he was hiding or something lol.



I didn't really like the original killzone(Yes I have it so dont tell me to go play it..). I thought the gameplay was weird (Although alot more realistic) and it didn't have vehicles!!! Also the story was pretty forgettable.

» PS3 owners 1st it was LAIR FLOPPED then it was HEAVENLY SWORD ALSO ALREADY FLOPPED now they say KILLZONE

If you have a PS3 why comment on Killzone ? seriously do you think people who own 360s and are waiting for Halo3 have any interest whatsoever in Killzone ? LOL.



Lets see before that it was LAIR wasnt it and what a rating that has got average 5 from 10 oh and heavenly sword averaging around 6 out of 10 LOL so you forget them now you mention Killzone instead.



Bioshock average rating 10 from 10 go comment on that or something..

» as owner of both systems

i can assure you no one gave a crap about heavenly sword.



and btw...neither failed. Killzone will be big on it, whether you like it or not. Halo killer? Nah, but its not about killing the competition, it's about pleasing who owns the system and maybe enticing a few buyers.
