There is a new human gun that no body has talked about and it is in the E3 2003 video and right after sarge says "get tactical marines" you see one of the ODSTs load a gun that looks like a cross between the M16 and a BAR and its not the BR its something different looks like a heavy machine gun.

Sniper Rifle, If you look at the it and compare it not to the one in the same video, but in the 2004 video, when Zanzabar is being explained, you see a sniper rifle, these too look pretty much the same.

Edit: That's probably because the ODST's can carry more then one weapon, he probably changes to his SMG.

If u look at the handle of the gun next to the guy that says its hot down there or something like that, Its exactly the same as the odst's handle

No its a sniper rifle, the battle rifle has a bull pup design, the ODST loads the mag infront of the trigger. Just watch the movie one more time, and take note of the color layout of the sniper rifle that the marine has( The two Marines that say "Area hot, advise mission abort") then look at the ODT loading his gun. Its obvious that its the sniper rifle.

That gun does look odd, it doesn't really look like a sniper to me, or a smg or a battle rifle. Interesting

ITS THE SNIPER RIFLE! I just watched the 2003 E3 demo again...the scene is about 50 seconds into the movie (depending on which version you downloaded - I have the movie that Bungie released after 2003 E3). An ODST loads a clip into this "new" gun that is obviously not the Battle Rifle - since the ODST loads the clip in front of the trigger. If you compare this gun to the same gun used by a sniper when recon reports to the Pelican (the scene SnipeAssault was talking about)? Its the same as that sniper rifle (about 33 seconds into movie). But here's the thing...when the Master Chief and the three ODSTs in the dropship get off the Pelican, they are all carrying Battle Rifles! The plot thickens...

Bottom Line = The gun you all are talking about is the sniper rifle.
I hope that clears some things up!

Yeah, definitely a sniper rifle. I've watched that video a million times.
