I saw a commercial where some guy goes to a drinking party and after he gets out of his car, he stabs the tire with a knife. then it says to do anything to prevent drunk driving.

That gave me an interesting idea:

It should be the same setting, except MC gets out of a warthog and is going to the drinking party. then he shoots the hell out of his tires. then the announcer guy says do anything to prevent drunk driving. Meanwhile, MC is still shooting the warthog, until it explodes and his shield has to recharge from the explosion. then he says, Oops. I forgot its destructible this time around.

Is that funny or just stupid?

they didnt make commercials for Halo CE so why would they for H2? Halo CE needed it more because it was new and no one had heard of it. Bungie will prolly keep quiet like they usually do and just wait for it to come out and no commercials.

It's not supposed to be serious. I just thought it was funny and wanted to let you guys hear it.

Yeah but I was goin for the cinimatic feel bungie wants. If you want a funny one:
A grunt screamin in the shadows. Running all confused. He he's a foot step, so he turns quickly and shoots! Nobody's there. He's like really freakin out now so, he runs and turns a corner. Oh Oh, he bumped into MC. [the camera is from his view] He looks up and MC smacks him with a meele attack. Then the Nov 9 and H2 symbol.

I'll be happy if the commercial actually shows the game it is advertising the whole time, unlike almost every other game-commercial EVER.

It would be funny to see a grunt's view for a change. I wonder if their snout (nose) gets in the way of their vision...

good job, nacho

H2 should gang up with Gatorade cause it looks like the covie bleed Gatorade. and have some funny quote or slogan like "be tough, drink gatorade like the covie... just look out for MC... Nov. 9th are you ready to save earth?"
