Halo 3 Wraith Tank, Custom Game Glitch and Super Speed gameplay videos

A handful of tank-busting, gravity-defying, game-glitching Halo 3 video joy coming your way. Yes, another chance to live vicariously through those lucky enough to get into the Beta, as well as have a peek at what's in store for all of us come the game's release.

The first video, Wraith Tank, lets us see what it's like behind the wheel of a hovering behemoth of destruction. While one shot of the heavily-armored vehicle can easily reduce a puny little Spartan into mush, it's much more better to dispose of any would-be fraggers with a little bit of fender-bender action. So many pedestrians, so little time (bonus points for anyone who gets the Carmageddon reference).

The second video, Custom Game Glitch, shows how players can play around with the Custom Game's settings - unlocking a whole plethora of goodies to muck around with. Always a good feeling when players manage to find exploits in a game simply by playing it again and again.

Last but not least, Super Speed lets us see what sort of hijinks Halo 3 Beta players come up with when they're able to mess around with the custom game's settings - specifically, upping the player speed and lowering gravity by half. Looks like tons of fragging fun - that is, if the motion sickness doesn't get to you first.

Enough from us, you have a lot of video-watching to do! Enjoy!

» X360 Vs. PS3 [Head to Head Deathmatch]

There’re so many stup+d PS3 fanboys right now who bark that PS3 is superior to X360 console; that’s the reason why I wrote this informal essay.



Let’s compare the most sold X360 game and the most sold PS3 game (HEAD TO HEAD DEATHMATCH); then talk about which console is superior to another at the end. Each category is worth 100 points unless mentioned. If it’s drawn, both get half points.



I spent much time to read about 10 different reviews on both games. Most sentences below are NOT my opinions (remember this). Most sentences below are from the reviews I read online.



[Epic’s Gears of War Vs. Insomniac’s Resistance: Fall of Man]



- Gameplay (300 pts): Resistance is a generic and mindless run & gunner. Epic adopted and improved Resident Evil 4’s point of view; then GoW’s over-the-shoulder revolutionized the gaming industry. Now, Sony’s best future games Uncharted Drake’s Fortune and Ratchet and Clank Future (when using weapons) both totally copied GoW’s point of view. Winner: GoW



- Graphics (300): GoW wins by a land-slide. No need to discuss more. Winner: GoW



- Awards: Many gamers bought GoW because it won so many awards. Winner: GoW



- Main character (200): Epic did a very good job on this. Marcus Fenix is as memorable as Halo’s Master Chief. Resistance’s Nathan is simply too boring to control. Winner: GoW



- Average review score: GoW got 94 from 172 different game related publications; Resistance got 89 from 164 publications; many gamers bought GoW because it got extremely high review scores.

Winner: GoW



- Level of Appealing (Fun Factor) (200): Resistance is all about run and gun like Halo 3 or Unreal Tournament 3. GoW has deep tactical play. Winner: GoW



- Online Modes (Multiplayer) (300): Resistance offers much more game types, but all of them are mindless run and gunner. GoW should have supported at least 8 versus 8 multiplay (4 Vs. 4 is just sub-standard). Winner: Drawn



- Single-player (SP): Resistance’s developers spent so much time, budget, and effort on this (Resistance’s SP is much longer); the thing is that Resistance’s SP is plainly boring and not even fun. Winner: GoW



- Weapons (200): Resistance has technically extremely advanced weapons, but these weapons are not balanced for multiplay. GoW has much less number of weapons; the thing is that lancer (the gun with chainsaw) alone is better (the powerful feeling; sound, lighting, and decal effects) than all weapons in Resistance combined. Torque bow and boomshot are extremely well made, too. Winner: GoW



- Music & Sound Effects (300): Resistance’s sound is on average; GoW’s sound is superb (especially guns and explosion sounds are mind-blowing). Winner: GoW



- Longevity (Replay Value) (300): Resistance’s run and gun gets old extremely quickly. Winner: GoW



- Technical Advancement (200): Resistance’s extremely huge maps + 42-player online + Resistance’s bull’s eye and sapper guns. Winner: Resistance



- General Concept & Originality: Resistance is a copycat of Half Life, Call of Duty, and Unreal Tourney. Winner: GoW



- Character Animation: Both games offer silky smooth movement of units. Winner: Drawn



- (NPC’s) A.I.: GoW’s AI is better made. Epic did a very good job here. If you kill one enemy in GoW, you feel satisfied and rewarded; if you kill one (or ten) enemy in Resistance, you feel bored and lame (LOL). Winner: GoW



- Atmosphere (Presentation) (200): GoW’s sci-fi movie like mood is all over the places. Winner: GoW



- Interface (attention to detail, how polished is the final game?): Winner: Drawn



- Overall Impressiveness (300): In general, GoW even deeply impresses diehard Sony fanboys. Winner: GoW



Finally, GoW won by f+cking huge margin.

- Resistance’s total score: 450 points

- GoW’s total score: 3,050 points

I said at the start that we need to talk about which console is superior to another at the end. Now, let’s talk about that. Which console is superior? If you’re still trying to defend your pathetic PS3 console then you must be illiterate and blind, period.

» wow

That was horribly off topic and this is coming from someone that doesn't own a PS3 (and yes I do own a 360). Not to mention who lets you decide which game wins each category. A lot of your reasons aren't even comparable. And Single Player, I'm sorry but a game can be brilliant, but I still consider it horrible that I beat GOW in around 4 hours on my first run through.



Now it's not that I hate GoW (in fact I love it) it's just that your lame reasons have made me angry.

» AoxomomoxoA get a job

For starters it's up to the game developers to make their games look good. The console is just the hardware that will drive it. Look at God of War 1/2 (PS2)pretty impressive ***** and that's looking like the next gen stuff going around. Now take this game Halo3, they keep riding the fanbois coat tails, squeezing every last drop out of a dying franchise. It looks just like halo2 where's the next gen in it. This isn't a comparison with the consoles but the game developers for halo3. So before everyone starts this console comparison it's really the developers that make the game look good or bad. You stupid flaming retards...

» You're dumb

I too have the Beta, and I have played 12 custom games to date, ranging from swords and pistol matches with 300% speed and 50% gravity to infinite ammo laser matches. You can play custom games in the beta, it's all over the net man, how could it not be true?



300% speed and half gravity gets old a lot faster than you think it would
