An HD version of the Terminal trailer is up on True Achievements (or directly on YouTube).

Disclaimer: I was one of the animators, so I'm pleased as punch to be able to finally post this.

Looks great.

Is that meant to be guilty spark talking? he sounds different to me.

The Librarian · Jul 28, 2011

Looks utterly fantastic.

Yes, they brought in the same voice actor. Though this particular track was recorded specifically for the trailer, so there's a chance the audio treatment in the trailer is a little different than what's actually in the terminals.

op_ivy · Jul 28, 2011

that looks incredible, GREAT JOB!

also, i heart 343 GS.

assonscott..you are my hero

Anniversary is going to make me shed a tear when I finally open the package on November 15th.

Guilty Spark sounds weird. Do not like his new voice and hope it isn't in the game that way.

Petrichor · Jul 28, 2011

Can't put my finger on it but you can just tell they dont have Marty doing the music anymore... it's a shame. You can tell it's an imitator at work rather than the master.

What? It sounds just like him.

I disagree. He sounds whinier and higher pitched.

Yeah, it sounds different. It's not exactly a new voice actor but something is off about it.

Pretty exciting to have this new stuff in the game. Halo's story is actually pretty good as far as video game's go.

And you did a very, very good job. Can i ask if you animated them all and which one was your favorite? No specifics, just which level it can be found in?

Odd that they would change the voice for a 'remastered' version. Especially when they are in position where they really need to prove that they can do Halo as well or better than Bungie. Bad decision, imho ...but it is only a very small thing. I just hope it isn't indicative bad decision making in general on the project. I want them to succeed for many reasons.

ToyMachine228 · Jul 28, 2011

I have to say, that looks awesome. I'm wicked excited to be revisiting the "original" Halo with new secrets and insight into the Forerunners. That feeling of exploration in the original Halo...In HD...With new stuff...Zo...My...God...

As for the voice, it's different but it's also new material. The voice actor's voice has changed. The equipment used for recording has changed. They may also be using a different filter on the voice. I wonder if the voices in the actual gameplay the same voice samples from the original or have they been re-recorded?

x-Lundz-x · Jul 28, 2011

Looks really good, thanks OP.

The voice was filtered in the original game. It's unfiltered in the trailer. I'm pretty sure it'll be the same, or new but filter in the remake.

Van Owen · Jul 28, 2011

Hope they fix the voice before release.

FunkyPajamas · Jul 28, 2011

Will these sequences shown in the trailer be present (in their full form) in the game in any way? A cutscene unlocked if all Terminals are found perhaps? Or was this made specifically for this trailer?

Genesis Knight · Jul 28, 2011

Must be depressing to work on something like this and be all excited to show it to people, just to have everyone bitch about the sound of what is apparently an isolated VA recording session.

I think what was told was each terminal will present a cutscene.

Seems like it as there's a company logo SEQUENCE at the end of the trailer.

ToyMachine228 · Jul 28, 2011

I can't remember if I ever noticed before that 343 Guilty Spark's "eye" is the Marathon symbol.

I think the messages we find in the terminals will be pretty similar to this one.

Homeboyd · Jul 28, 2011

Great job man. Can't wait to see them all.

Buttonbasher · Jul 28, 2011

Well looks like I have to buy this.

OH DANG that Glyph...

tea_and_crumpets · Jul 28, 2011

Yes, Spark's voice is off. Preferred the old one. They shouldn't have re-done the sound.

kittens · Jul 28, 2011

I'm holding back on watching these... I really wanna experience it in-game for the first time. Still, though, so hyped.

cory021 · Jul 28, 2011

Great job. I love watching the Halo rings tearing apart the different locations.

I'm interested to see what the terminals are like. I wouldn't think they are just pieces of text like in H3 and Reach. I'd be cool if they were like little videos. Or maybe just audio like in ODST.

Same voice actor, higher recording quality, less filtering.

All dialogue in the original cutscenes etc is still the original recordings.

Yes, but that is the nature of the work. If the 343 guys aren't used to it by now they will be soon.
Rest looks great and I am hyped about the game. Hyped about the property and (at least) some of the team members on 343 are absolute rockstars so I'm excited to see new work from them on any project.

Okay, higher pitched, but other than that, it sounds like the exact same voice actor.

Great work!! How's the kinect integration?

Gui_PT · Jul 28, 2011

Wait... People are complaining about Terminals?

It's the same GS actor and it's still Marty's music.

Synth_floyd · Jul 28, 2011

Cool, at least they're adding in some extra features. Before it just seemed like it was a re-skinned re-release of the game.

Infamous Chris · Jul 28, 2011

Holy shit. I want this trailer to have my babies.

Shut up, it's possible in my mind!

MrBig · Jul 28, 2011

Art looks fantastic!

Also...

No detractive railings

VGChampion · Jul 28, 2011

Wait, so this is another game / movie inside the Halo CE package?
