You can see how detailed the Chief is...
Cortana and the Chief being a galaxy apart is a situation we haven't seen before...
The Cortana reveal is the first evidence that this trailer might be for Halo 3, but the game's main protagonist is the item that seals that deal. CJ explains, "It is the Chief, back on a devastated and Covenant controlled Earth, standing over the excavation of a structure buried in the crust of our own planet that is the meat of our demo."
Asked about the battered state of the Chief's armor, Marcus ventured, "The Chief is shown as warrior who has seen horrific battle – and it shows. The Earth is dry, barren, ravaged by the Covenant."
...at the end of Halo 2 when we left the Chief and the fate of the galaxy hanging in the balance.
Marty hired a 60 piece orchestra and a 24 piece choir to record the trailer music. "I want the viewer to have a feeling of anticipation and wonder for the first fifty seconds or so, up until Master Chief is revealed and they realize that it’s Cortana trying to tell them something," he says.
"I want them to feel pride and longing the moment Master Chief walks out of the smoke," says Marty.
And those are just from the annoncement update on the frontpage.

Suffice to say, the Chief has returned to Earth.
Q

I noticed the Master Chief's armor was scraped and damaged, what happened to him?
A

Lots of things.

Q

I also noticed Master Chief's gloves had changed. Does that mean it's Mjolnir Mark VII?
A

We haven't revealed that yet . Don't jump to any conclusions.

Q

Which characters will be returning in Halo 3?
A

Well as you can see from the trailer, at a minimum, we'll see the Chief and Cortana in some shape or form. And I believe Banshee pilots...

Those were from the Halo 3 FAQ's

Now if all this wasn't enough to satisfy most of your pitiful brains, I don't really know what will. I'm starting to think that most of you are just pre-teens trying to drive everyone crazy on these forums.
