Apparently the Beta won't be at 1080 for all consoles.

Xbox One will hit 1080p in the full release only because Microsoft finally allowed developers to disable Kinect's motion detection and use that power for other stuff. (I believe system-level voice recognition is unaffected, so "Xbox, record that" will still work.)

This was a pretty recent change, so I'm not surprised it didn't make it into the Beta version. Hell, it's pretty cool that Bungie's coding wizards are even able to get it implemented in time for the retail release.

DeeJ: "So yea, we are aiming for 1080p on all platforms, I believe you are..."

IGN: "We have 1080P footage well be premiering, before the beta starts. So that's not how you'll see it in the beta but it is how you will see it in September."

Also tentative time for the Beta switch to be flipped is 10 A.M PST.

Now THAT'S caught my attention... I have a feeling many friendships will be destroyed because of this... Bungie, make it happen.

Can you imagine what it would take to carry a lesser-skilled player through this to victory? Truly a Platinum Trophy right there...

Any one else find it interesting that the icon shown during gameplay where the respawning was restricted, was the same one that is currently "?????" in the game modes section.

Perhaps in that mode there is no respawning at all. That would technically make it harder.

Ooo, nice catch! If that's the raid too, that'd be pretty damn great. A nice way to amp up the teamwork and tension.
