GamesFirst Looks At Second Halo
As seen on Voodoo Extreme, GamesFirst has put up a preview of Halo 2. Basically the same information as everyone else, and the same screen shots, but we mention it here for completeness.

MacCentral has posted a mini-preview of Myth III that mostly constitutes quotes from Nate Birkholz. Here's a segment from the preview:
Brad Cook of Apple has previewed Myth III on Apple's gaming website. They were able to snag a bunch of quotes from Mumbo Jumbo developers, including Scott Campbell and Mike Donges.
Kudos to those readers who pointed out the new German Halo preview (several of whom cited halo.bungie.org and Inside Mac Games as their sources) at Gamestar. HBO has posted a translation of the text, but I'm having a bit of difficulty getting over there, so no comment on that part just yet.
The Gamelinks Network posted a new Halo preview at their site. There are one or two minor inaccuracies but it is a good article for anyone who has been on a desert island for the last six months. (Yes, there are people in the world who haven't yet heard of Halo - spread the word! ;-)They mention the still-uncertain possibility for voice-communication, and that indigenous life may play an important role in some parts of the game.
As pointed out at halo.bungie.org, Playstation 2 Central has posted a preview of Halo for the PS2. Unfortunately, there is (all together now!) no new information given, and there are actually a few errors. Not to rile you folks up, but I thought this one was pretty glaring:
Kudos to Ricardo, who points out that PC Gamer is planning on previewing Halo in its Christmas 1999 issue. The information comes from this page, a preview of a preview mag. It's worth noting that, according to that page, this magazine came out two days ago... watch those magazine stores, people.
An interesting weekend? Halo has been previewed again in PC Gaming World, and halo.bungie.org has posted a scan of the article. The first paragraph sets the tone for the whole article:
Kudos to Noctavis, who pointed out an interesting comment made by Dave Laprad, editor in chief at the Adrenaline Vault, regarding their lack of Halo coverage:
We have been working with Bungie on a preview for some time. Stay tuned.
Fascinating. Keep your eyes peeled for this one, which is likely to be an interesting one.
As forecasted by (::roots through archive::) rojay on 10.30, CGW has posted their second of five games that will change gaming forever, via Gamespot. It's an old article, but if it's news to you, stop by and take a look... and while you're there, ignore the Q1 2000 release date. They're on crack.
Kudos to Mark Levin (and others) who pointed out the new Oni and Halo preview at Games Domain. The dual preview is a fantastic one, going into great depth on both games. New facts are revealed in both, such at this interesting tidbit:
Kudos to fozzy, who pointed out a new Halo preview at Daily Radar.
The article raves about the engine, which is standard for these previews, but doesn't offer a lot of new information. However, some interesting multiplayer goals are offered, further detailing Bungie's desire to promote team play and a vibrant online community. Definitely worth stopping by.
Kudos to geert, who sends word of a new Halo preview at Ultimate Gamer. The screenshots will be familiar, but there is some interesting new information towards the end, especially concerning the environment. Definitely one to take a look at.
Kudos to Crashed, who pointed out that the second half of Mac Game News' Halo preview has been posted. Focussing on weapons, it's a must read, and will provide material for another FAQ update tonight. Be sure to stop by and check it out.
Damn you, Murphy! And kudos to Supercobra and Chris t' Crappy, who both pointed out the new Halo preview at IGN.
Yay, another PR cut and paste, you say? Not so! Not only is there a brand new screenshot, but a detailed preview article too! I've yet to read it myself (rushing to post this ;), but the screenshot alone should be enough for a good week of speculation.
