Halo: CE Anniversary Achievement Idea
C-C-C-CANNON BREAKER!
Let Sgt. Johnson die on Halo.

Anyone else notice he has a holstered M6D pistol?

I like the people declaring 'fail' because they didn't see gameplay. Bungie said that the trailer would be from the opening cinematic how many times?

Loved the trailer. It's obvious that there's a lot of graphical improvements over Halo 3.

Now, I could be wrong, and I know it's not quite 'in game', but does it look like the real-time reflections were enabled this time?

Freaking epic job with the graphics. I love the drama that you guys portrayed with the darker world and snow covered mountains in the background while the spartans flew into combat in the face of rather large explosions.

Edit: "I read your file lieutenant, even the parts ONI didn't want me to, I'm glad to have your skill set, and you can leave that lone wolves stuff behind"

Sounds very intriguing.

You lied to me urk, the wallpapers aren't updated, fully. It seems that the first wallpaper shows Noble Team, but actually doesn't and the second screen (mobile-version) doesn't show Noble Team, but actually does.

Overall though, my hype is still up, I would just like to see the wallpapers finished!

Wow, epic trailer.

Dammit. You're still only teasing us. I want my Beta, and I want it now!

AH! OH! ZOMG!

Many bulls encompass me; strong bulls of Bashan surround me;
they open wide their mouths at me, like a ravening and roaring lion.
I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint;
my heart is like wax; it is melted within my breast;
my strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to my jaws;
you lay me in the dust of death. -Psalm 22:12-15

I think people are expecting the wrong thing. The graphics will be good, but they won't be mind-blowing. It's still being made for the 360, so it's not like they will be next generation. What's exciting is what isn't new, namely the sniper rifle, battle rifle, and finally...elites! Bungie, I hope you never change!

Great graphics, hair-standing(aka: kickass) music, new spartan outfits, etc...

What isn't there to love? Awaiting the drop of Halo Reach for sure.

Remember it's not drop anymore, that was ODST! the new play on words for release is " Halo: Reach Falls 2010" Get it? Aww Bungie, you scalawags!

But that leaves me wondering-does it release in Fall of 2010 or just 2010!(which would make it much closer than I expected!)

I love this new clip! makes me glad that i dumped $1000 on a new computer.
Oh, yeah, and did anyone else see the silhouette of the covenant cruiser in the background at the end?

Nice, is this the halo 3 house engine? Or are you using a new one ?

They said they were using a new one, the only time they used the same engine for 2 different games was halo 3 engine and halo 3 ODST, which makes sense.

  • 12.13.2009 8:43 AM PDT

That looks fun.

They did it! They finally hired some decent face artists.

I. Love. You. Bungie!

  • 12.13.2009 8:54 AM PDT

*Continuity Error Bungie!

At .56 the spartan loading the clip is putting the bullets into the clip in the wrong direction.

Still love what you've done though, just sayin.


In the future you put them in backwards. It's also not a "clip" it's a magazine.

  • 12.13.2009 9:11 AM PDT

that was a clever way of showing the characters by turning the sillouhetts into people you can see

  • 12.13.2009 9:18 AM PDT

The woman in the third Halo: Legends short, "The Package", is Kelly-087. She's been around in the books forevah. RoboSpartan is new, however.

Horrible trailer, although, I think you guys managed to accomplish what you set out to with this trailer - build hype.
The trailer really didn't reveal anything, which is why I am evermore interested in knowing more. Can't wait!

  • 12.13.2009 9:22 AM PDT

Anybody want a peanut?

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH THIS IS GOING TO BE AMAZING!!!!!

...*cough* Sorry. Just had to let that out. But, yeah, I'd say I'm pretty damn psyched for this game. What an amazing graphical upgrade. Day-umm. Plus the blood on the floor next to the Elite... that was badass.

And the new Battle Rifle. And the guy loading his Sniper rounds into the clip. And the M6D Pistol. And the human faces don't suck anymore. And the new helmets. And the mechanical arm. And the skull on that one guy's visor. And just about everything.

Welcome to the town of "Diligence." I'm Mayor Due.

TV didn't do that justice. Looks a helluva lot better in HD . Whats with the grass on the planet though? It looks like the Choplifter backgrounds from the Sega Master System.
