The marketing for Halo 3 was a pretty heavy advertising campaign consisting of great advertising trailers and even a ARG. Everything from the first announcement teaser to Landfall to Believe and not forgetting Starry Night did a good job of getting me hyped up and ready for Halo 3.
All of the trailers were great, but my favourite one was Landfall, a gritty tale showing some marines on a mission to video Master Chief's descent to Earth so they could pinpoint his coordinates Of course it's not as easy as it sounds, especially when the covenant is occupying Earth, Brutes are advancing on their position and banshee's are constantly flying over the area shooting at anything that isn't part of the covenant.
Oh, and it featured real people.
If you missed it or your memory has faded due to being filled up with all those awesome Halo 3 multiplayer moments then click- First a warning, as I said its gritty, if you are of a nervous disposition then don't click -here, also impatient web surfers might want to skip the first two minutes. And don't worry, i'll keep your seat warm.
So, you've read your way through my wall of words, refreshed yourself with the Landfall short and now its time for my finale. Or rather our finale. With the Reach beta demo coming in the spring I would guess that Reach is probably going to be released around autumn next year. If you liked Landfall and would like to see some blood, sweat, tears, effort and money put towards a Halo Reach edition of the Halo 3: Landfall short then simply post here and we can show Bungie, Microsoft and any investors poking around here that we want it.
Post here. Make a difference. And thank you for reading =)
