Screenshots of the final game in the Halo series, Halo 3, due out for the Xbox 360 sometime in 2007.

Extreme Lag

Here we see the effects of extreme lag. The player on the left is shooting at me. No doubt I am still on his screen, while on mine, I am already around the corner. Note the shield flash indicating that I have been hit, despite the fact that on screen I would appear to be behind the wall; the spray of bullets from the gun also indicate that in order to hit me from the current location, the projectiles have to pass through this wall.
