Hehe, I totally called the first of the two. I showed a smaller version a few days ago in a different thread. :)

its the thing in the first picture. It is too big to be a ghost and now I dont thinkit is a tank. I think it is a new vehicle that is probally used to transport people.

It's a Ghost dude, no doubt. Like Scorpion said, it's destroyed.

ya something in the back got me confused and it looked like it had one of those things that the covie tanks use to launch the plasma bombs on it.

Very cool pics, looks like the elite got rocketed and stuck by a plasma nade all at once, ouchies.

Finally...high res screenshots...it's so relieving to see them compared to digital recorders recording action that is on a television. Yeah, you get a good idea what the game is like and all, but, high res pictures speak much louder.

I can't wait to see Halo 2 on my HDTV... :drool:

Nah, just a rocket. That crackling electricity behind the Elite is his shield going out. Some of the write ups talk about the effect and how cool it is. ;)

on one of the lower-res videos you can see your sheilds "pop" and start to spark in first person view...totally adds to the gameplay experience if you ask me

Gonna be easy to tell then if somones shields got knocked off. I read that in some articles too, but I didn't think it would that big. :yikes:

Exactly! Especially considering that Bungie opted out of having a health bar on the interface. Seriously, it wasn't really all that needed in the first Halo...and now that spark effect is added in first person, one can tell that their health has been depleted :)

Yeah, once your shields are gone, its pretty much luck (or a sucky opponent) that will keep you alive.
