Did anyone else notice that the trailer goes for exactly 1 minute 17 seconds (1:17). Is that Just a coincidence or are they referring to John-117.

Coincidence?

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

I did not notice, but that is a really cool find. (Chances are it was on purpose, the trailer was likely designed to match with the Music (which would have been made first). And Marty O'donnell was probably told to specifically make the song 1:17 long.

This would be a good time to point out that the US Government seriously did consider nuking the moon during the Cold War as a show of force. Project A119.

"A large explosion on the Terminator line would put the sun behind the mushroom cloud, making the explosion visible with the naked eye from Earth."

Then the US decided they'd just send in Neil Armstrong to land on it. Neil Armstrong - the one man on the earth that was considered a suitable replacement for a nuclear missile.

Maybe I will never be
All the things that I wanna be
But now is not the time to cry
Now's the time to find out why
I think you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever

The first Odst music goes on for 1 minute and 17 seconds.

I'm guessing it's because he knows that if people had any common sense, they would know that you are not playing as Master Chief, considering that he was not on Reach.
