It's a Marine wearing a modified Heads Up Display. Remember in Halo 1 and 2 all they got was the small green "monocle" HUDs. it only seems fair that they get an upgrade in Halo 3 :)

Someone set up us the bomb
on XBL i'm Gangsta Assasin

it looks like they have upgraded armor too. i think its like a suped-up marine, maybe a new class somewhere between the marines and ODSTs. maybe a spartan III, because you can see armor in the wireframe and in the face pic. but its not the cheif, because it has that odd collar piece around the neck that the cheif lacks.

One could possibly be a Longsword pilot.

It looks to me alot like master chief with only part of his mask on... not as in he would be wearing half a mask in the game but as in an unfinished MC.

Um... is it just me or does the head on the right side of the pic look like the guy from Marathon?

Yeah, you have proof, and we can clearly see its a Marine.
Anyways, I agree, its most likeley a new pilot or Marine.

No, no, no, you guys are getting the left screen all wrong!

If you examine it closely, it appears to be of the same graphical style as the concept cinematics shown in the behind the scenes DVD. Also, the character in the foreground appears to be the back of a head and upper chest; a hologram of Cortana.

I think this is a concept cinematic with an unfinished (for one reason or another) Cheif model. Also, the left most screen appears to be a TV while the rest appear to be moniters (I'm still not 100% sure though.) Or it could be a marine, but I definetly think it's a concept cinematic, and I definetly think thats the back of a Cortana hologram.

Don't laugh at me screwing up words, I would like to see you writing properly in Russian.

I don't know why, but it reminds me of the ODST helmet (probably because I used to draw these guys) without the bottom part. Maybe they can remove the bottom part for some unknown reason. Because the ODSTs in Halo 2 had the same kind of visor and the "ring" at the bottom of their helmet is still there. (can't really describe that, but it's not on their neck, it's at the lower part of their helmet)

The Marine Pilot helmet reminds me a lot of the Nightstalker Helmets from the movie Black Hawk Down

it is very interesting specially the far right screen with pics of piliot helmets



Yeah, it is probable that the render of the marine is supposed to be a pilot.

why would the guy sitting in the chair who is designing or adding more details to the marine, have a screen with several pilot helmets. i know there pilot helmets b/c my dad still has his from when he was jumpmaster in the marine corps

i would agree as he does appear to have a mouthpeice, as do all previous halo-pilots.

oh and BTW it would definatly not be the MC a) because he is wearing completely different armour and b) because they would definatly not release a pic of the MC without a helmet on before the game was released/ever.

and also if you look closely at the "marine's" shoulder you can see it overlaps the strange object next to him, demonstrating it is probably about a foot behind him and to his left. i dont think it's a concept cinematic.

also, a quick search on google can show it's most likely a pilot, look at the helmets:
Pilot

this is a silly, hopeful, juvenile "omg what if" statement, but maybe this could mean some sort of helicopter vehicle in halo 3? (as the picture linked above is a helicopter pilot) yes, very, very, far fetched, but i just thought i'd throw the thought into the field really.

it just looks like a pilot with awsome graphics. it would be awsome if they also put real-time reflections in the pilots visors. if they are then they are putting a lot of detail in every little thing.(which is good) Halo 3 iz gonna be da -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- .....i think you get the point. =P

@SHlT_I_died

no-one has confirmed it's a grunt, or a brute, or an elite, or anything else. For now everyone should treat it as an "alien"
