Wow, good documentary and I had absolutely no clue they redid the music and the sounds of the guns. I thought all they did was work with the graphics, but to see stuff like terminals put in there made me even more hyped. I know there are a bunch of new games coming out in November, but now I'm most excited about this one, can't wait.

 

[Ein Bear]

Just finished watching this, really great documentary. They spend a good amount of time talking about the creation of the original Halo 1 and 2 too, which I liked.

Arghhh I need this game to be out.

Halo Vidocs are literally in a class of their own.

Crazy how they've surpassed Bungie with them in terms of quality, delivery, information shared. That was an amazing ViDoc and really gives you great insight into what it took to make H2A and the MCC and just how passionate not only 343 is about Halo, but a lot of others as well. Halo 2 was a milestone in console gaming. Hell, my old chemistry teacher was playing it in class in front of his students on launch day, I was jealous and watching through the door in the hall as I went to the restroom.

Great job by 343 on this documentary. Can't wait for MCC launch!

 

[Zombie Lyle]

Going to give this a watch over the weekend. Hopefully it's as good as the Halo Vidocs.

 

[Waaghals]

It tells me that it is unavailable.
I have silverlight.

Region locking?

 

[Storm360]

[jelly]

Excellent, will watch later today.

 

[BigTnaples]

Got it. Watching now.

 

[Niven]

That was really impressive!

 

[Slixshot]

How long is it???

 

[BeforeU]

Just watched it. Speechless. Truly. I hope everyone with Xbox One picks up this collection. It truly is a love letter to fans.

Thank you 343, Microsoft, and everyone involved in this project to make it happen.

How long is it???

1hr 2min

 

[Sesuadra]

was someone from europe able to watch it yet?

 

[Final Verdict]

so some interesting stuff heard in the video...

Apparently Agent Locke is indeed a "spartan hunter".

Also, we can see a cut-scene of him talking to an elite that does NOT appear to be the Arbiter.

It is interesting to note that the graphical style looks different than what Blur did for the H2A cutscenes.
So I think it is safe to assume that this is one of the 'bookend' cutscenes for the MCC, and that this is similar to how the Halo 5 graphics will look as it is probably using assets from Halo 5.

 

[BeforeU]

^ yeah I also noticed. So he isn't really a friend to Master Chief. Looks interesting.

 

[dancrane212]

Will have to watch this when I get home, there shouldn't be any issue watching this on XB1 right? Not like Xbox Music where I need a subscription to use on the console?

Excellent, thanks!

 

[icecoldkilla]

can't wait to see it!

 

[Ramirez]

That was great, well done.

And yes, Mr. Vociferous, I will be getting on Halo 2 tonight.

 

[BuggeryBugz]

really well made documentary and it has made me even more excited for both MCC and halo 5.

 

[Black Mantis]

was someone from europe able to watch it yet?

Yeah, I'm UK based and watched it this morning.

 

[Wizman23]

Halo Vidocs are literally in a class of their own.

They really are. Don't understand why Bungie ditched them in Destiny.

 

[Computer]

Cant get it to play on any browser.

 

[AlStrong]

Cant get it to play on any browser.

Do you have silverlight installed?

 

[Computer]

Do you have silverlight installed?

Ya the trailer will play but the movie will not.

 

[Rampage99]

Ya the trailer will play but the movie will not.

Same issue here...

In the US btw.

 

[Blue Ninja]

Region locking?

Yup, it's region locked. At least that's what I think. VPN doesn't seem to help either, though.

 

[Heigic]

Working in the UK

 

[The Flash]

If you guys have Win8 download it with the Video app.

 

[Jessie.Bristol]

Already have it "purchased," so I will be watching it a little later.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

MCC is going to be the best gaming deal since Orange Box

 

[Blue Ninja]

If you guys have Win8 download it with the Video app.

Can't find it.

So typical of MS to lock this away again. Ugh.

 

[Prine]

Damn so soooo good to see Marty heavily in this documentary. Come back, come back home Marty. We all miss you.

Hell that might be an in engine cutscene from Halo 5.

 

[TheOddOne]

I can't understand why they didn't upload it to the main Halo youtube channel.

 

[Nialrot]

Really wanted to watch this during my lunch break but the pop out video screen just keeps showing the little balls going around trying to load... =X

 

[Blue Ninja]

I can't understand why they didn't upload it to the main Halo youtube channel.

Gotta push dat Xbox Video.

Probably some marketing deal or something, I don't know. But it's annoying as hell.

 

[Sesuadra]

Yeah, I'm UK based and watched it this morning.

why can't i watch it in germany?..damn.

 

[Heretic]

Frank O'Connor
Fucking Stud

Fixed.

 

[TRD Mr Blonde]

It's hard to not be excited after watching this. This was really well done.

 

[Garrett 2U]

That documentary was absolutely amazing!
It really highlighted how passionate everyone is about making Halo.

 

[shanew21]

Hell that might be an in engine cutscene from Halo 5.

Halo 4 didn't have any in engine cutscenes if I recall. Just Blur stuff.

 

[Blue Ninja]

Wrong. The prologue and epilogue were Blur, as were all the Spartan Ops cutscenes. All the rest was in engine. There's even a vid of a guy modding it to fly around during the cutscenes.

 

[purg3]

Nice, looking forward to watching this.
