Did you all read this drivvel? It's at the bottom of the trailer page.


A little background for those not in the "Halo" know: The sequel picks up the story of Master Chief, a masked and armored marine who wages heavy-artillery war against alien invaders known as The Covenant, which look like humanoid scorpions.

In "Halo," the Chief destroyed a ring-shaped planet and wiped out a fleet of the alien baddies. This time, the villains have decimated most of the galaxy's human colonies and have landed on Earth in the year 2552 to exact revenge.

The first game took the genre of a first-person shooter -- in which players see only a gun and crosshairs as they charge through a maze killing monsters -- and allowed the gamer to wander, sneak up on enemies and create unique battle strategies.

A big change in "Halo 2" is the ability to turn alien weapons against the enemy. Jump onto the back of an alien hover ship and you can hijack it by booting out the baddie! Get your hands on a two-pronged alien energy sword and lunge across a field and kill enemies in a single, crushing sweep!

Gamers will have to wait some more to wage "Halo 2" war, but the trailer helps bring Nov. 9 a little more into view.



Lol.... That is, without a doubt, the funniest thing I've seen in a while. It is so painfully obvious that the person who wrote this has only seen bits and pieces of Halo. Humanoid scorpians... what will they think of next?

That trailer looks a little crap when I watch it. not that the trailer is crap, but the quality is just good enough to sees the HALO 2 Logo at the end... the rest is not readable...

Unfortunately the trailer has not yet been released in europe, so I didn't see it in cinema yet. but I hope it comes over to us as soon as opssible..

I normally don't post messages like this, but if Bungine ever reads this thread, then do yourself and us a favour and never release any of the movies you wan't to show us to MSN entertainment ever again. If I wanted to go to a website to view such drivel as those ads that we are forced to watch before the main event and then have ourselves be subjected to more ads afterwards without even asking us for the privledge of watching a streaming video of O2 that the server delivers to me in dribs and drabs, then I would actually vist MSN myself.

This website delivers O2 content correctly, MSN entertainment shows us the worst of the American marketing culture, and their total lack of respect for people in general.

Do yourselves a favour and got to Bungie.org instead to view the movie.

This place is in dire need of a little complaining. The number of brainless fans in here that will kiss bungie's ass no matter what filth they send our way is enough to feed the third world countries 10 times over.

I agree. Is this trailer a joke? Old footage, bad quality...YUCK!!!!

Remember to right click to "save target as" if you want to keeep this trailer for posterity. And you probably will.


You mean right click to "save target as" if you want to keep this trailer for posterity???

Man, you guys are slipping.

Along with supporting (yes, I realize not being in charge of or running, but still supporting) the take advantage of the Hardcore fans Mt. Dew contest. EX: From one of the winners Posted by: rip29
Well, for all you guys that are pissed for not winning....don't be! The morons never called us back or replied to our email. So it didn't matter after all, what you looked like or how buff (lol) you are. They are friggin morons that I will vow to destroy.

I new exactly what I was getting into. I new the rules and disclamier crap. I received an email that we won. We also spoke to them last night on the phone! I should have know something was up when I asked questions and they didn't have answers. If you were in charge of a contest wouldn't you know details of the contest? For the $1000 a person we would have to pay, I think it's fair to tell you if your playing multiplayer? A demo or the full blown game? How many maps can you play? Things like that?

They also said you MAY be in a moutain dew ad (like I care). Nothing was set in stone in this bull crap contest! I am so mad I could scream.

You know something is up when the contact number in the email is a cell phone. What the hell are they doing? They told me to call or email them with the confirmation of our team mates. We emailed them and left two messages! No friggin reply! Is there no one there to help the winners of the contest?

This is so much crap I am furious!!!!!!!!!!! Jason at Mountain Dew can kiss my @ss!!!!!!!!! I hope he loses his crap @ss job!!! Thanks for the call back -blam!-!!!!!!!!
The contest was held at a Microsoft building, so don't let them slide! They make billions of dollars, but no one can manage a friggin contest!!!!!!!

If you won, you would have been screwed....regardless of how creative! And yes, most were more creative than us!

Pepsi Company.......SUCKS.............

Microsoft SUCKS..............

Bungie is still cool, but you should have taken up for your fans.....

Don't worry about calling us now, because without a transporter, we can't make it!!!!!!!!!!!!


You guys must be working too hard (like that's a surprise to any of us). Which I appreciate in the fact that it will get us a better game on time (again, thanks for the best birthday present in the world!). But I'd hate to see anybody from such a good company burn out. I'm a Computer Engineer myself and I've seen it happen before, it's not pretty. I love and respect the good, quality work you guys have put out to date. Maybe a small rest is needed/deserved. I'm sure you'd have ample offers of help to do so. Not that any of us could probably really do anything to help, but at least you'd get offers, right? ;)

Anyway, hope things go better in the future than this week for ya!

GamePro.com has a standard version of the trailer up on its main page as well as a link to a (50 Meg!) 1920x1080p version with 5.1 surround sound. That's huge for a 45 second trailer but it's really purty.

umm, in first strike, i thought MC and his other remaining spartans destroyed the unyielding hierophant and destroyed 500 covenant ships and left many others disabled and only a few were operational, and then i thought well what if they came from Reach but i remember Admiral Whitcock or watever his name is was saying that they prepared those specials nukes they had developed there to explode that would take out the ground forces and the ships as well, so this is the only question i have if someone could explain it to me, how the hell did the covenant beat MC to Earth?

MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY
Of course the crew won't come for me if they're all dead. If they're all dead and I alone am left to tell the tale.

I'm crying, and my tears are made of sand.

MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY

FIELD EXPEDIENT DIRECTION FINDING

"Find a straight stick about a meter long and stand it upright on fairly level upright ground. Mark the tip of the shadow cast by the stick: wait 15 minutes: mark the shadow again. Draw a line from the first mark through the second and some way beyond. Stand with your left foot on the first mark and your right on the end of the line. In the northern hemisphere, you will now be facing north, and can recall the other directions by their relationship to north. In the south, contrariwise."

Hm.

No stick.
No sun.
