Bungie has finally brought to light how the Forge and Saved Films will work. You can either check out the video above to see how this will work or head on over to Bungie for detailed explanations of what you can and can't do.
The Forge gameplay looks really interesting to me. The fact that you can play in a match and have someone playing God in a battle seems like it can be tons of fun. Also, fast forward the video to 6:58. You can knock away rockets with the Brute Hammer?! Holy sh*t!
Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

I had a chance to check this out last night, along with some guys from Bungie and 1UP. It's very, very cool, and I have no huge interest in Halo 3. But I'm sold on this.
I'm waiting for video of our session to go up (hopefully) on Gamevideos or maybe the 1UP show -- I was tossing ghosts and warthogs like nobody's business.
Sweet sassy molassy, can you imagine the Dtoid Friday Night Fights with that? And after you can post the videos so all of Destructoid can watch it. Suck on that Killzone 2!
Normally after playing a game for about 10 or 12 hours, I get to that point where I just need to turn it off and go to sleep. But the fact that I can now squeeze an extra 4 hours of entertainment by playing halo 3 warthog-fusion coil-scorpion-crate jenga horrifies me. London had it right not selling the game at midnight. This IS how the world ends.
The world ends when Bungie delay the game until 08' because the rating of the game comes under fire after it's found that by hacking into the game with a special program with $5000 worth of equipment and reverse engineering a few thousand lines of code, all the characters in the game have raging erections.
I don't see the single-player campaign winning this Game of the Year, but I think the multiplayer may make an excellent argument for it. Bungie is absolutely brilliant, based on their handling of the multiplayer functionality of Halo 3 alone. Between the 4-player co-op, excellent XBL matchmaking, and near-infinite possibilities of the Forge, this game has a gigantic lifespan. Good show, Bungie. I never thought I'd say this, but the campaign is just an afterthought, at this point.

Yawn.
The more I see of Halo 3, the more I reckon its in for a running.
I peed myself laughing.
I hate halo 3, but my interest level has just raised around 6 billion percent.
