To get off the ilovebees subject for once, I was watching the Halo 2 trailer. I know it was all re-rendered at a higher resolution(but still in-engine, more or less) ,and, as always, looks great, but at the part where the phantoms fly over MC, it looks fantastic!!! To the point that I almost can't believe that that's in-engine footage. Now, to the point, in Halo 1, all the cinematics were in-engine, now in Halo 2, do you think(or for the Bungie-ites, know) that that clip is in-engine or just rendered from the source material, away from the engine? It just blows my mind away, it's gorgeous!!!

Maybe the single player engine (who is better than the multiplayer one) but I think its a cg

I don't think that it is in engine, the movement is too fluid and seamless, but I wouldn't put it past Bungie. They've had three years to make the game, you never know what they could do in their super engine. I'm not underestimating the game engine, I'm just saying if that's in engine, Halo 2 got a new subtitle:

If thats in-engine I think all of our eyes will explode on November 9th.
Highly unlikely.

Yeah at the end it has to be out of engine. The MC almost looks like a guy inside a suit of Nightmare Armor.....scary.

MC looks like an action figure at the part with the Phantoms. He doesn't look nearly as good as the in-game model. Therefore I believe it is out of engine.

Just wondering, Deidg, where and when did they confirm? If they really did, that's awesome!
