Why is the ARC being activated before MC gets there?

Will there be anymore trailers in the near future showing new footage (i.e. new characters, old characters)? Will there ever be a special collectors disk where one can have all the different trailers released from all three games?

Will the Chief be that shiny in the end product? Because he's really shiny there.

Why does Marty's music make me want to cry and smile at the same time?

what is your personal favorite feature (graphics or otherwise) in Halo 3 so far?

and for mister chief this week:
can we see mister chief with HDR lighting? :)

  • 05.12.2006 7:56 AM PDT

I'm guessing those ruins in the back are Old New Mombasa, so, whereabouts is the Chief and this Forerunner structure?

Does the canyon / hole in the trailer have something to do with New Mombasa and that spacejump the Covenant Capital Ship made at Halo 2?

RIP Halo 2.

What's the polygon count on the characters and environments in comparison to Halo 2?

Any chance we get a 100% confirmation of the dialogue in the trailer so we stop arguing about what was pronounced how? Marty gave us some info, but there's still a few arguements...

What does Mister Chief look like in HD?

How many security guards do I have to bludgeon with my Xbox 360 power supply before I can get to the room where there's a playable Halo 3?

Why dose the sign post in the trailer have a grunt on it?

For Carnage, Apply Within.

I have returned from the Untamed Lands. MOAP is dead.

What part in Africa does the trailer take place in?

and

That Phantom being escorted by Banshees looked important.
Who's in it?

"I pledge to punch all switches, to never shoot where I could use grenades, to admit the existence of no level except Total Carnage, to never use caps lock as my "run" key, and to never, ever, leave a single BoB alive."

2B || !2B - Why don't you look Inside the Machine?

1) Why was there a Grunt Crossing Zone sign there?

2) Will Cortana ever return?

3) Where is the location of the "Arc" scene?

4) How awesome do you think it will be when it is all done?

Is that spartan actually Chuck Norris in armor?

  • 05.12.2006 8:01 AM PDT

Is the plan to release the game at the same time as the movie? Or does the movie release have no effect on when the game is released?

In the trailer...is the Covenant on the side of MC, or are they the ones activating what is thought to be the Arc?

What is that thing being activated?

Is Cortana under Graveminds control?

How did MC Get back on Earth?

Is this New Mombasa, oris it some other land?

Just a few Q's. Thanks!!

  • 05.12.2006 8:02 AM PDT

Sup Frankie! Halo 3 will be the best game ever!
Some questions
1) People have speculated that there was a flash in his HUD which meant he was communicating with other Spartans. Is this true?
2) What's that demolished structure MC gets out of (when he comes out from the smoke)?
3) Is that city New Mombasa?
4) Do you like comparing the Halo games to the Bible?

* Pr: ĭnʹtərnĕts: "I hear there's rumors on the uh (pause), Internets...

Were there any specific re-designs done to the HUD, or will it maintain the Halo 2 style?

Also, can we expect dual-wielding in the gameplay?

Are you considering using this in conjunction with live anywhere as Bill Gates was talking about at E3. If so can you give us details.

Also can you give us a bit of info about multiplayer and any episodic content that you may work on (seeing as GTA4 seems to be heading off down that path)

The Trailer seems to have a different "feel" to it. Darker, more desperate. The music seems to play an important role as it always has, but this trailer really showcases it well. Is this a good example of what the soundtracks theme will be like?
