Halo and Freelancer?

[Screenlag]

I am a huge Halo fan and I've played them for a very long time. Well, I bought freelancer and I noticed that the sounds the liberty guns make is very similar to the plasma rifles in Halo.
It was the first thought that hit me when I left the atmosphere of Manhattan and began shooting tradelanes =P

Did anyone else notice this?

I never noticed it, but I wouldn't be surprised by it.

Now I'll have to dust off the old X-box and check it out.

well both games were made by the same company, and freelancer came first by several years, it's safe to assume microsoft just re-used the sound files instead of making new ones.

Freelancer was in development for a very long time before Halo was even thought of. It's possible the sound files for Halo were reused from Freelancer.

You fear oblivion. Yet you forget. The universe remembers every atom of your being. Even dust hums your name in the dark.
Roleplay is dead. Long live Powertraders and PvP I guess.
