RevitXman... i love you. *moves to hug Revit*

the trailer as cool, but mostly it was nothing new, and the picture quality kinda sucked, byt hey, beggars can't be choosers, i guess. i wonder how many people passed out from that trailer...

can't wait 'till someone gets a good high-quality steady-cam shot of it.

on a side note: i saw I Robot, and i think that was Will smith's best movie. it was definitely better than i thought it was going to be. commercials = OK; movie itself = kick-ass.

Thanks, that was awesome. That part at the end, with Master Chief doing that cover post was the best part. It gave me the chills it was so awesome. (okay, maybe it wasn't that great, but it was really good)

That trailer kicked ass...although we had seen most of it it was great and I am sure that it would make non believers buy the game

Here's roughly what the trailer consists of, based on the (just slightly incomplete) clip and what people who saw it at the cinemas have reported:

It starts out with epic/orchestral drumming music and the words THIS / IS US on a black screen. Then the Earth fades into view, getting more and more illuminated as if through a sunrise.
The music continues and a flurry of fast clips ensues, including some from E3 2003 when the Pelican sweeps in over New Mombasa, Elites land their pods in front of the Master Chief on the highway, Elites activating their energy swords. Fades to black again and displays WE'RE NOT READY. The Master Chief fades into view, locks and loads a combat rifle with a pronounced click-clack. More rapid flashes from the gunning/driving sequence on the highway and the dual SMG:s-wielding part from E3 2003, and then fade to black again with the words HE IS.

After this comes the new and what most people seem to consider the best part of the trailer: The main, epic-opera-sounding Halo-theme starts playing over the original "orchestral drumming" and the Master Chief fades into view standing on some kind of rock/ruin-like structure, surrounded by flames (like the picture on the box-cover). He's holding two SMG:s, slowly looks around/behind him, and then assumes a crouching position as smaller Covenant ships (flying ones, not really Ghosts.. Seraphs maybe?) pass over him. The camera zooms in on him, and he lifts his SMG:s to face-level, and jumps off-screen.
The H2-logo appears against a similar fiery/explosive background, hovers for some seconds, and is replaced by the text 'HALO' with 'NOVEMBER 9' in smaller text under it. Typical speaker-voice goes "Rated M for Mature." X-Box-logo pops up, and that's that.

The entire trailer-clip lasts about 32 seconds.

Xbox Live Gamertag: Opey Master

And yeah, Opey could probably win that game without using his BR. Best SMG user in Halo.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RCG ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Is it just me, or does the MC look a little life-like? Because his armor looks like the armor made by Nightmare armor. Could it be that they used a real person in armor and super-imposed him into the background of Phantoms flying by? Just a theory...

There are no irrelevant quotes of historical figures here. Neither will you find any links, chain posts, memes, clan advertisements, self-promotions, or the tiniest of ASCII pictures.

So go away.

Yeah, I agree. That sucked. Those nine seconds or whatever of new animation are great and all, but damn it, I wanna see the game.

Looks more like a teaser. So that CG bit is from the game or made just for show?
