Was able to test Halo 3 Beta a few days ago. There was some problems at first for those that got the Beta via the game Crackdown, but once those issues were resolved it was a nice experience being able to play the beta version. I wasn’t to impressed with the general graphics, the only parts that did look like they put some more effort into was the 3D water effects and footprints in the snow was a nice touch to the game. The actual characters where much like Halo 2 and most of the game looked as if I was playing Halo 2 in high resolution. The online game play ran flawless for me. I did hear from others that they hit a lot of lag but I was not affected by this. I liked the idea that you were able to record your entire game play when a round was over but was disappointed that you were not able to place it on the net. We are only able to share it with our friends. I haven’t played it enough to give it a thumbs up or down just yet but will try it a few more times over the next few days.
