IGTV have put up a couple of fantastic videos of Halo 3 gameplay – filmed off screen at the Leipzig Games Convention. One on campaign and the other on multiplayer.
The first video is from campaign, taken from Tsavo Highway and does a good job of demonstrating Halo 3’s next gen prettiness – showcasing the new troop hog and sheer blindness caused from the flare in action, whilst also giving more of a feel for the scale and style of gameplay.
There’s a little extra footage tagged on the end from a multiplayer session that’s worth paying attention to, as it shows the Gravity Hammer in full swing. Awesome sound effect.
The second video is all multiplayer, all Sandtrap, and all good. For the first time we’re able to see just how big a level Sandtrap is – and much like the Elephant featured in the video we posted earlier, much bigger than we had previously imagined. Check out the detail on that Elite model, damn he’s looking nice.
Both videos are available on each page for download too, for those not wanting to stream. I really am starting to regret not getting over to the convention myself this year.
**UPDATE**
IGN has also posted a short video of campaign gameplay along with a brief write up from their time with it. Go take a look.
**UPDATE 2**
Gamevideos.com has posted two more great looking videos of campaign gameplay. These feature a little more action than the previous vids – gunplay, encounters with Brute Choppers, even a jacking! Check ’em out here and here.
