Halo 3: The ride (must be 7', 1000lbs. to enter this ride)

WTF is this?:

Kotaku is eagerly waiting in line for this at the Leipzig Games Convention in Germany.. scratching their heads.

I wish I had a funny quote to throw in here, but it's escaping me at the moment.

Ah... got it: 'Not nearly as fun as the plasma grenade ball pit."

I have a feeling it is an advertisement on the ride, not the ride is called "Halo 3".

Would be funny though.

 

[MasterGun]

Some crazy guy is going to crash a plane into that, then some crazy guy in green armor is going to detonate the plane ;-)


Nice find Sean :rofl: !!

Well i think its relatively easy, look at the weel. The rides are covered with something.My best guess is that you can play halo3 inside for one hole circle :lindsey:

Anyone noticed the Huge Xbox 360 logo in the middle?

Half of it's missing ...

 

[Ironcobra3000]

Its still in Beta
IT NEEDS BETA TESTERS!, LOL

 

[Kiltmanfortytwo]

the rest of the xbox logo is crumpled on the ground there.

Where did this come from this is all random!

 

[massivek]

i want to go into the plasma grenade ball pit!

 

[Chewdog316]

Do they somewhat resemble drop pods?

 

[Sean Bradley]

Well. What do you know... It is Halo 3: The Ride.

Every one of the 24 cabinets is outfitted with 2 X Box 360's. They haven't announced what they are planning with this, but supposedly Microsoft will be announcing it soon.

I'd suspect that it's intention is to have a huge LAN party...in ferris wheel form.

With 48 individual players... this would be a rather large game of Halo 3...

Good god! O.O
For once I wish I was in Germany...
Even though I'm not too fond of heights.
Guess it wouldn't matter that much when it's all covered up like that.

 

[Ironcobra3000]

hmmmmm, I think you can play the campaign in co-op mode for one spin.

 

[John 117]

I hope they make a suit of armor for the ride! That would be cool!

 

[Bad Blood]

lol i can see it now
" Ride with Master Chief"

 

[TheBlue]

God I love big round spiny things...


Especially when you can play a game inside

 

[MC Chris]

its funny because they take something which was boring, and made it awesome by throwing in some 360's

 

[Ironcobra3000]

I just hope those 360's don't get ROD'd It would be an utter shame

 

[Sarge Christi]

Flippin' sweet.
I'd lan in a ferris wheel.
