We all enjoy the threater from Halo 3.  It helps us make great videos and screenshots, but I may have found proof of a theater in the upcoming Halo Wars.  The following pictures are from GamePro.  Notice how they are the exact same screenshot, but taken from different angles.  This requires a pause button.

Just see for yourself:

HWA Interview With Thunder:

Tom: Machinima is a beautiful thing. All three Halo games to date have been used in popular Machinima videos, with Halo 3 having phenomenal tools supporting it. Have you guys at Ensemble considered shipping with a few tools to assist with Machinima creation, perhaps something as simple as an option to remove the GUI and pointer?

Graham: Red versus Blue! Yeah we've talked about a number of tools that might be made available to fans. It is possible to turn off the GUI in the game right now, so that might be an easy thing we can do. I don't want to make any promises though. It's amazing what you can forget about when you're in the final stages of development and you're hunting down that last crash bug in the stressful moments before you ship.

Maby I'm wrong and there's something else that alows them to do this.  It's now up for discussion.

    Honestly, I can't say. It looks like it could be a theater mode, or maybe it's exclusive to the creators for the purposes of informing us. I would hope for a theater mode, but it's simply too hard for me to tell at this point.

Wooo.... looks like we get pelicans after all, and these are some great screen shots

Yeah that sems to be it, but since we can't figure that out let us glean what knowledge of the units that shall be in the game from these screen shots

none of those are the same thing from different angles......

they just have pic + zoomed version which can be done in any editor.

 

besides, Dev-modes allow the pausing of simulation and the drop of the UI

He also said something a bout Red vs Blue taking a part in it or something.

Read the interview with Thunder and you'll see theatre.

A theater option would be awesome, now the only question is, where do i get decent internet connection so i can finally get Xbox live, that way I can make an epic...

TBH it looks like the guys from GamePro had high res shots and just zoomed in on the action and divided the screens up.

 I don't think this in anyway can obtain proof of a theater.

HELLO I just put some proof up. My last post had the Q and A of Theatre.
