heyyo,
ok heres how it it went, earth was attacked by the covenant with 15 ships, this was supposed to be a simple recon but they discovered earth, thats what you saw in halo 2, in the end of halo 2 you see mc come back to earth and it seems like they are mopping up, which they are, but in the teaser it seems that earth has been overrun with the covenant, this led me to one and only one conclusion, that the teaser cannot be in the beggining of h3 its gotta be somewhere in the middle, so i went on yahoo and researched it, and sure enough in their coverage i found this...
Shortly after Microsoft's presentation, we had an opportunity to get a close-up look at Halo 3 with Bungie representatives. We spoke with Brian Gerrard, one of Bungie's community managers, as well as CJ Cowan, the studio's cinematics director. Cowan stated that the trailer was a good example of where Halo 3 is going, in terms of fiction. By that, he means that the story is epic in scale, but dark as well, and Bungie is going for a distinct mood, since Halo 3 will represent the end of the trilogy.
The Bungie representatives made it clear to us that the trailer was running in real-time on the Xbox 360. The trailer is set in the African desert, and it was taken from roughly a third of the way through the game.Cowan noted that the constant battling has taken its toll on Master Chief, and you can see that by the many scratches and gouges in his armor. The flashes of Cortana seen in the trailer fill you in on the state of her mind, and the Forerunner structure seen in the distance at the end of the trailer represents a pivotal point in the story.
heres a link to the site
hope that helps ;)
