Feature: Halo 3 beta taken apart- extended!

You may or may not have heard about a glitch on the Halo 3 beta that some people have exploited which lets them run custom games and fiddle around a little with the settings. In Changing the settings, it seemingly allows you to access a few game variants, weapons, a vehicle, and customisation options that are obviously in the beta code, but we were not supposed to get. Yes, I have tried these out myself, and in fact- took pictures (click on the titles below) of these weapons and the vehicle so you can see for yourself. The pistol, the plasma sword, and the Covenant wraith! So, I suppose that it's only fair that I write about 'em!

Pistol:

Looks very similar to the magnum from Halo: Combat Evolved, however it thankfully no longer has the zoom capability and isn't as strong. Can be duel wielded.

Plasma Sword:

Pretty much the same as it was in Halo 2, apart from they seem to have reduced the lunge distance and it looks a whole load cooler!

Wraith:

This Covenant tank is pretty cool. It has a large plasma cannon and a boost capability, and a second dude can jump in and make use of the plasma turret.
