Tonight: Future Weapons Takes on Halo 3

by Devin Grimes| Published: Monday, September 17 @ 20:05:56 EDT

As if cross-promotions involving Halo 3 haven’t convinced us all to buy the game immediately on September 25th, the Discovery Channel’s Future Weapons will be going all analytical with the machinery and weapons in Bungie’s epic finale to the Chief’s story.

Starting at 8:00 P.M. EST, you’ll be able to bask in all the glory that is Halo 3 on your television screen, while taking a glance at the unique weaponry that has set the game apart from the typical first-person shooter (You can even hold your controller while doing so!). I’m not sure how many Plasma Pistols or Spartan Lasers will be involved, but given the host of Future Weapons has his own page on Discovery.com called “The Mack Zone,” you can’t go wrong with checking it out (or could you?…).

I'm watching this now but there's nothing about Halo 3 weapons here. This show was cancelled earlier this season.

It looks like a bunch of reruns brought to you by Halo 3 to me. They are wearing the commercials out though! Loving all this hype! Bring it!

I went online to remote Tivo Schedule it and it wasn't anything related to Halo3.

I think the show was canceled because the guy was a douche. I respect his background but he was too bravado and seemed too forced. Give me R. Lee Ermey any day over that guy.

I liked the weapons and technology they displayed however.

I saw a commercial for the Halo 3/Future Weapons spot during Survivor Man along with a few other people here, and it was a short plug for it, I just remember some game footage and then "Future Weapons".. I assumed they would have something more than commercials.. lame

I watched two episodes the one at 8 and the one at 9. First there was NO discussion of halo or halo weapons in the program itself. The only Halo3 coverage was during commercials. The show at 8 just re-ran the E3 trailer from 2 years ago plus various bits of the diorama commercial we've already seen. There was one commercial that showed some lame game-play footage which was basically a few shots of a flag carrier on various vehicles.

The one at 9 pretty much had the same stuff during commercials.

I became suspicious when my TiVo told me all the Futureweapons shows were re-runs.

The commercial says the episodes will be "brought to you by Microsoft and Halo 3." It doesn't say that the shows will be "about" Halo 3. Besides, this show isn't on any more so I don't see how they could have episodes featuring Halo 3 since it is such a new game.
