1. It's changed every game, you're noticing this now?

2. Because Cortana's voice changed? Seriously, what the hell else could they possibly say in that situation?

3. Realize it's a promotional independently developed CGI trailer, not gameplay.

Umm... First of all, that was just a CGI trailer. How it looks has not much/nothing to do with how the game is going to look like. The voice acting, how can you say it's bad when there are only three lines said in the trailer. You can't base assumptions on a minute long CGI trailer. Wait until you see a real in-game trailer and then you can criticize the game as much as you want.

Ha, this is hilarious! No more than three minutes of minimal footage and dialogue, and your saying it's dead to you? As for the armour, it's not a massive change; its alternated from every game to game.

Honsetly...

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

This made me lol pretty good.

On Topic: The Chief has gotten new armour or significant changes to his armour between each game in the trilogy so why not now?

I don't disregard the option of Cortana making upgrades to Johns armor during his cryo sleep.

AFK: Away from Kontroller. Don't do it or you'll get the living crap smacked out of you by the Banhammer. If you disagree with any of this, you are just bad at Mortal Kombat.

Cortana's voice changed? I am calling BS, it sounded the same to me.

Also, Chief doesn't have new armor. My take on is that if you pay attention, Chief is missing parts of his armor. No doubt the damage sustained at the end of Halo 3 did this to the Mark VI.

It was just a reveal trailer, i don't see how that ruined the franchise. Hold on to your proverbial horses until we seem actual gameplay.

Signatures are for squares.

Good, cry.

I'm tired of reasoning with these -blam!-s.

Also, it still sounds like Jen Taylor and Steve Downes to me. Granted, the chief only had one line, "I'm here" to me it sounded exactly like he always did.

I sensed Cortanas voice was...off, but I still think it's Jen. Cortana's voice could of changed as an effect of rampancy or metastability.

The only line Cortana actually said that wasn't muffled was a sigh of relief then a yelp before all hell broke loose.

I love halo and without halo i would be sitting down doing nothing when I have no place to go during the weekends.

Well, halo has its up and downs. Unfortunetly its not all going to be all the same voices, another guy took over halo, it doesn't even matter, if you like the new halo 4 then get it but if not just play halo 1,2, and 3 for the rest of your lives, it doesn't matter to me i think its rediculous to fight over this small subject, im actualy waiting for the new halo 4 to come out and im gonna get it no matter what. But i do agree halo is a dead game the game has a 50% chance of making the game of the year.

I have more hopes for the game.

Also, it's awesome meeting someone else who calls opposing viewpoints heresy.

I think 343 have something to cover up cortana not falling into ramapancy, something to do with reach and handing cortana to keyes,otherwise it could be shes be alone for so long she's lost it a little becuase of being alone.

sorry, in my opinion, cortana is my fav person includeing jhonson. Cortana's voice was arwsum and wouldnt be the same without it. This is my personal opinion and no matter is she does or dosnt have the same voice im gonna carry on playing my fav series of games no matter what.

  • 06.07.2011 6:50 AM PDT

they NEED to get Jen Taylor back.

I am already doubting 343, and this game is whole new territory for all things halo. They NEED to have as much continuity as possible, and that means same voice actors.

  • 06.07.2011 6:58 AM PDT

Who's awesome? ^ this guy.

Who cares if it's dead to you. If you've changed your mind about halo with only 3 minutes of evidence why, then you probably aren't as loyal to the series and as loving to it as most of us TRUE fans.

"You can't touch music, but music can touch you."

I'm actually kind of pissed, not at the game, but because I now have to pay $120 for Halo Anniversary and Halo 4. I think 343 will do well with the next trilogy.

Sangheili Major: "Brute ships. Staggered line! Shipmaster, they outnumber us, three-to-one!"

Rtas 'Vadum: "Then it is an even fight. All Cruisers, fire at will! Burn their mongrel hides!"

If you don't like it, cover your eyes, plug your ears and by all means, PRETEND IT DOESN'T EXIST.
-Quoted my sister. :)

The armor change honestly doesn't bother me anymore. It did when I first saw the trailer, and then it started to grow on me after watching the trailer several times over.

As for the voices, Cortana's sounded off, so she may have a different voice actress, but John is definitely still Steve Downes. I have never heard a good imitation of that man's voice, however I have heard rather nicely done imitations of Jen Taylor's.

I'm happy with it, however if it isn't Jen Taylor just sounding a little off, I would like to have her back. Other imitations may be good, but they're not the same.

Online Gaming's pretty much like a zombie movie. There are a lot of mindless idiots roaming around but you find some survivors on the way.

I was so excited..I was watching E3 all day. Just to see this-this heresy. WOW. Now I know how arbiter felt like when he got betrayed by the prophets. Why did the armor change? Why the horrible voice acting? It looks horrible.



Halo is dead to me now. I thought 343 could still make the halo name live on but its just dead.

*sigh* I knew it was only a matter of time before people started freaking out over this trailer. "ZOMG ITS BLASPHEMY!!11 CORTANA DOESNT HAVE THE SAME VOICE ACTOR AS BEFORE!!1" Seriously get over it. Its a minute long CGI trailer for christsake.

I couldn't have said it better.

Voices sound exactly the same to me. Maybe Cortana is a bit off, but then again: she IS on the boundaries of rampacy and really didn't look so well at all, so that might be the explanation.

Armor has changed all the time. Besides: canon-wise, the thrusters have always been part of Chief's armor from CE onwards...I suggest reading books before hating on a game for showing things you guys simply didn't know off.
