Halo 3 trailer on xbox live now.

, "It was intended to be an understated announce of Halo 3 - the tone is that of mystery and suspense – the calm before the storm. I wanted to make sure that we re-introduced the Chief, show that Earth is thoroughly conquered, with Covenant everywhere, and that there is a glorious, ancient artifact buried under the Earth’s crust which will provide H3 with the epic journey which we all want."

Wrong, when Joe Staten was at my school (Northwestern University), he mentioned that the original Halo 2 trailer was sorta CG. Every frame was rendered on the original Xbox hardware though. It was just pasted together.

Anyway, it was an ok trailer. Glad that Bungie is making it.

So it was pre-rendered on an Xbox? Didn't know that. I guess that explains the graphics. Hopefully it's not the same bullshit with this trailer.

considering they did a real time demonstration after the trailer, I highly doubt thats possible

Yeah it wasnt much at all. :lol The graphics were nice but it was all fully cutscene based and without any jaggies. The fact they delayed it further isnt great either.

What real-time demonstration? Footage plz.

And damn the Fable 2 CG trailer. I want to see gameplay. It's probably too much to expect Project Ego and not a plain-jane sequel to Fable. :(

so do I

We demonstrated the real-time nature of the demo after the press conference (thanks to our friends at Pioneer with awesome audio-video assistance) to a small group of reporters, so we'll wait and see what their judgment on the presentation was, but you should feel free to make your own.

oh and I wouldn't be suprised if that Fable 2 trailer was realtime

Nearly every single PS3 game was realtime this time. Obviously the others like eight days were scripted cutscenes. I think people are just confused understandbly. :lol

Looks like the Halo 2 graphics from the first Halo 2 trailer. Nice to see they can get it done on the 360.

That's what I thinking :lol still looks amazing the character model that is :P
 
Looked good. I was sort of expecting Bungie to blow away Gears of War but I think Gears of War has come on top.

Commence 4 years of graphical downgrades until game's release.

*yawn*

halo, the most overrated game in history. Even the trailer wasnt anything special.

In history? Nah, that's Metroid Prime. :) Halo sure was overrated though.

Btw, the new(?) GoW trailer looks stunning. Looks really fun too. Probably one of my most anticipated 360-xclusive games.

To be fair, this is a real-time teaser. Gears of War is coming out THIS YEAR.

I'd like to think the fable team learned something making the first one, but who knows? I am very excited for it though. The colonial/gun/dragon scene at the end was sweet.
 
it looks amazing.

I really want to know where they're going with Fable 2, though. I mean, Fable sure was a hell of a lot different from Project Ego, and quite frankly everything that excited me about Project Ego was removed for the final product. Hopefully it'll at least be somewhere inbetween.

Prime is up there on the list...

GOW did look cool, they just gotta get the frame rate up on the high action parts. The art in it is amazingly good.

Wow. Boring trailer. Shitty Bungie Symphony Generica orchestral music. The graphics look nice, but I doubt any levels are going to actually be like that....vast wasteland reaching a cliff that overlooks an enormous chasm that is nothing more than a background you won't be able to explore. I want to see some fucking gameplay, or at least a scripted battle sequence.

And hopefully, this time, the final game will actually look like the original teaser trailer.....COUGH Halo 2.

What I'm really hoping is that the game will go beyond being just just a graphically-updated-sequel-with-new-guns ala Halo 2, and actually be a new experience, like something more akin to the *original* Halo vision, or having elements of what was originally promised for Halo 2. Quite frankly, Bungie's final Halo products IMO tend to fail to live up to the hype.

Wow, who pissed in your corn flakes?
 
Gears of War trailer > Halo3's


And yes, Halo is overrated, but nowhere up there with that game people view as the godsend of this/last gen...aka Metroid Prime.

oh boo hoo, I didn't ejaculate over a boring trailer that didn't really reveal anything about the game. And considering neither of the finished-product Halos had anything near what was originally promised in terms of innovative gameplay, I think I'm justified in being skeptical.

They are doing different things. this is a teaser trailer for something a year or so away, not something coming out in a few months.

ha ha

okay. my real impressions of the trailer at this point, having seen it a couple times..
Graphics are really nice. Hopefully it'll look this good during gameplay. Cortana seems to be going a bit nuts. I vaguely recall from the halo books something about how AI's go crazy after a certain amount of time. Is Cortana cracking? Don't remember if this was referenced in the actual games or not, it's been a while...

Assault rifle is back!! If they buff it up a little bit (from HALO:CE) that'll rule.
I've heard this (basically) same orchestrated tune about a hundred times now but it still manages to get me pumped. DUH-DUH-DUH-DAAAAAHHHH, DUH-DUH-DUH-DAHHHHHHH. yeah baby.

This is the way the world ends...whew! That'd be something if like, the world really ends and MC dies. With that possibility and the possible Solid Snake Suicide...Gee. Where's my ANTI-DEPRESSANTS? DUH-DUH-DUH-DAAAAAAAHHHH
 
I dont know how they do it, but Bungie got me hyped again. That tune does it everytime, now i only need to hear MC's sexy voice again.


Bet you cant sti..eh save the world...

You're on!
