Have you considered the fact that all of the other E3 trailers were never in the game?

Halo CE at E3 had a movie involving strange animals and Elites that spoke their own language.

Halo 2 involved some cut-scenes of Earth and game-play that was never featured in the game.

And now we have an E3 announcement with a beautiful cut-scene and a transmission from Cortana. Will it be included in the game? Odds are certainly against it!

Exactly! And I don't remember seeing anything that revealed Halo: CE or Halo 2's plot (at least easter-egg wise) from their E3 vids.

I hope it is in the game...but I see where you are coming from.

Knowing Bungie, the game itself will probably be totally different from the H3 trailer.

One of the few people on these forums that actually thinks and doesn't go crazy with the game already. Same thing that happened with Halo 2 is already happening again. "Assume makes an ass out of you and me."

This kinda feels different. I can't quit put my finger on it but I think MOST of what we saw MIGHT bew in the final game. Just look at, was it the first trailer, you know the on were MC jumps out of the cruiser. MOST of that was in the final game alright not all but most. But with tis it feels like more of the trailer MIGHT be in the final game.

The Halo 2 trailer was changed because Bungie was rushed by Microsoft; they had to change parts of the game so it could be done quicker. At least I think that's what happened.
But who knows. Maybe this trailer won't be in the game. Best just to wait for more updates from Frankie.

We have rose from the ashes of battle and we're goin' back in......................maybe...

im not so sure that the actual cutscene will be in the final game, but i do think that the "hole in the ground" (for lack of a better term) will appear somewher in the game

just cuz they don't use the whole scene... doesn't mean its not in the game....
the original halo... was started out for the Mac....
and if you didn't notice... all the tunnels underground... and what they are trying to do... resembles the Silent Cartographer level does it not???

and in Halo 2 E3.... they might have scratched out the majority of the beginning... but I do recall chief making those exact same movements... only they put the bomb in the screen... other than that... it was the same...nvmnd... that was announcement trailer

I really hope they put Blind Wolves in the next game, or 'Strange Animals' as you call them :)

Not totally true; if you watch the Making of Halo 2 Video, Bungie themsleves say that they screwed something up and had to restart developement of the entire game about halfway through. That was why many thing were changed around in the final rpoduct, not jsut because Microsoft started to rush them toward the end.

Yeah. In halo:CE it was like a mix of the level Halo and the Silent Cartographer. Was not included in the game. Hell the only things included in that video were the pelican, AR with different skins, plasma rifle, shotgun with different skins, and a different sniper. I highly dobut that you will see that scene in the game although it is possible.

Actually, the Halo 2 announcment trailer WAS in the game, only edited a bit, instead of the MC just flying out of the hanger, he brings the covenant back their bomb... in the "trailer" your thinking about, it wasnt a trailer, it was a quick demo to show people the gameplay, and yes, THAT WASNT in the game...
