    After reading the entire press release that I got in the mail about this, it turns out that this is the demo shown at the MS Briefing... that we've already discussed if you were keeping up on the editorials It's a cool clip that shows off some of the new features, so definately check it out. I pity Bungies web servers though.

    Thats what minor sites are for. It's not going to take long before there's other sites have it.

    Hell yes! I'd record it to a VHS tape so I wouldn't have to boot the disc up everytime.

    BTW-The move will indeed be 150-180MB, and is the 640x480 version of the Halo 2 E3 trailer, without the shaky cameras or people cheering (so you don't have this one already MasterWeed).

    it really looks awesome. what a diffrence between the two. the e3 demo I could not make out half the stuff master chief was shooting at. now its clear as can be.plus I did not hear them say the word "sh**" in the e3 demo and what cortana says at the end.

    is 640x480 going to be the in game rez or is that just for the demo?
