This week's Weekly Update over at Bungie.net is full of plant talk. Frankie talks about Halo 3's grass, moss, water, vines, fog, and the sky ... it's a real nature lesson. All kidding aside, Halo 3 is moving along just fine as they're already placing decorations (pretty nature stuff) into multiplayer levels. He talks of how all these realistic elements come together to create an immersive and life-like environment. The grass will actually move when explosions occur nearby, the fog doesn't hide geometry but uses particle effects to distort vistas, and they accurately place moss in moist areas. It's exciting to hear how much love and care they put into our triple A 360 title. And one of our favorite parts of the Weekly Update is the voice outtake of a Grunt. Download the sound clip, hear grunt, laugh at grunt, repeat ... it's our Halo 3.
