I dont know if these shots are real or not but with the Game due to drop next Fall surely we should start seeing 'official' screenshots pretty soon. Hell the Beta for Reach is supposed to be happening early next year.
If this is Bungies last Halo? I expect them to go out with a bang!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but screen 4 could be the Unyielding Hierophant space station from 'First Strike' which is the novel set after the fall of reach...
If these shots are real... ooohhh baby!  |

Those screen shots sure look real, and look brilliant! That's so funny, it would of taken Bungie about 29 months to release one screen shot, somebody comes along and releases 7! |

The lighting looks a massive step up from Halo 3, as does the detail in the level-design (a SPARTAN in an office complex!).
Even if these are grainy shots, they are looking very very good. And from the looks of it - Spartan combat in space! (image 5).
As Stonecold said, it is about time we started seeing some official shots. Wouldn't surprise me if this "leak" was in fact a publicity stunt.

Seems real enough, especially coupled with Bungie locking every thread that had these shots.
Even though these are poor quality, it looks like Bungie are on the right track. Can't wait for the beta. |

It already looks miles better than the rather bland ODST, even if the pictures are a bit out of focus. Good stuff.

Not trying to be smart about anything, just wondering if you could see a screen that I couldn't. No need for the bitchy attitude. |

Sorry mate, was only joking - not trying to be bitchy. If I wasn't joking I probably wouldn't have used the term "smarty-pants"

It does look like they're in space. However, the Master Chief led a team into the space dock during the fall of Reach, so it could be that.
The shots do look pretty good, I guess we'll find out if there's any truth to them on the Beta!

Does anyone else think that it is a bit of a coincidence that these shots get "leaked" less than a week before the biggest FPS release this year?
Even if these weren't leaked as part of a publicity stunt, I think their exposure is going to accelerate the release of proper screenies.

I reckon we'll be controlling all of the 5 or 6 Spartans that were silhouetted on the the teaser. Probably one of the features they said they'd carry over from ODST. |

SPOILER ALERT....
Totally agree... I was mainly looking at screen 4 which looks like the internal structures of the Hierophant describrd in the novel... where they encounter the Brutes for the first time and Grace is killed.

Ah rite. I'm reading first strike now, but I'm not that far into it yet. Sounds like a good read tho!

Here we go! Saw these screens last night- I'm giglling like a schoolgirl with excitement all over again.
If these ARE real it looks like they're going with a more washed out colour palette- has a more realistic flavour to it- but it still has that Halo look to it. Awesome stuff!
ODST will be keeping me happy until the Beta though. Still, cannae wait!

I dont think this would have been part of Bungies or MS's plans, even though the Monster that is MW2 is releasing next week.
Bungie are one of the most guarded Devs out there and they plan everything down to the very last detail, releasing these blurry shots goes against pretty much everything they have done in the past.
I hope you are right though and that its pushed both MS and Bungie into releasing some proper screenshots (that we can hopefully all drool over).
Fingers crossed, eh  ?

I remember that now. Whilst it never had the title, the image looked like the planet in the trailer. Even though I'm hyped to see it, I'm also hoping they don't reveal anything until the next E3 at the earliest, as the long wait until release will do my head in! |

Yes, these are definitely real since in Bungie's latest Weekly Update they talk a lot about their internal beta testing or whatever and these screenshots have come from one of the people doing the testing as stated by CVG.
The games looks awesome, I'm liking the look of the new Battle Rifle very much.
