Oft hope is born when all is forlorn.

haha. I had a long conversation about you and your ilk before we released. It's marketing. There are many audiences.

Oh wow I didn't think of that. Thanks for showing me the light.
They tried to make a Team Master Chief thread but it got locked.

Trailer was so awesome. Hype is high. I took Tuesday and Wednesday off to play this sucker. Going to romp through that campaign.

I think Locke is gonna be awesome once he has his "come around" moment.

It's pretty obvious that you have a promising future in game development.

I get that.
It's still disgusting though.
I'll just never understand that kind of jarring tonal shift. It had a great vibe going and blasted me out of that mood that it already established so well.
W/e though. Game is hawt and the content was hawt.
Edit: what kind of "conversations?" lol =)

I was worried when you guys said it featured Muse as I'm not the biggest fan in the world, but that only kicks in for the second half. And Knights of Cydonia? Hell yeah, that really works well in the trailer.
Set phasers to hype.

Should have used Taylor Swift for that mass appeal.
But seriously i was hoping for atleast a bit of the classic halo theme right at the end.
Good trailer orherwise.

Y'all that are more excited for Locke than Chief should be ashamed. Have you no honor?

They are the real traitors!
Nah, cause we all know that Chief will get his due. I am simply more excited for a bad ass looking new character and his development towards a moment I think we can all see coming.
Listen to him.

We've played as Chief for 4 games already and haven't had a playable Halo character other than him since Reach. So yes, I certainly am more excited to play as Locke than Chief.
Still love Chief though.
What you mean is that you don't like it. Which is fine. But as you can see in this thread, a lot of people do like it.
"Disgusting" is kind of overkill too. Tonally opposite Mashups like this have been around literally since the 60s.
Who are excited about then?
Let's save hyperbole like "disgusting" for dumbshits who put mayo on french fries.
My favorite Halos have one thing in common - MC wasn't in them. I'm honorless.
? Locke.
Not watching since it's so close to release, but Muse is in it eh?
Lock(e) puns. Not even once.

You and me both ODST and Reach were the best campaigns.
IMO chief needs to be moved to the background. As a thing or important person to be observed for a while.
LOL.

Sorry if that's offensive or overkill, but that aspect of the trailer is disgusting to me. I don't see how that it's hyperbole though because it literally made me recoil in disapproval.
Opinions/personalities and such.
Still loved the trailer itself broskie.
If an aspect of a video game trailer literally made you recoil in disapproval and disgusted you, you probably should re-evaluate your life priorities.
I mean, anything would sound better with the Halo score over the top, but this is the launch trailer for a huuugely widespread audience. Totally understandable that people don't like the song choice, but the music beats tie in really nicely with the footage - the guitar riff kicking in as Buck hits the ground running and gunning at 1:23, the gameplay introduction at 1:34 into the snow level. It's a trailer of two halves, the first half of it is the build up, the cinematic stuff, then Muse kicks off with the gameplay 'reveal'. I guess when non score music is used over the tops of ads like this, its more common for it to be over the whole ad.

Seriously? What kind of logic is that?
I have been a massive fan of the series and it's story and music. Getting into the story and the trailer's mood and then being bombarded by that tonal shift was akin to hearing an alarm clock when waking up.
I didn't even mean for my comment to get so much attention and I mean no offense to those who enjoyed the trailer or 343. I still loved the trailer and I love the game.
Gawd.

I dunno, this feels like pretty standard Ubi marketing stuff. But then again, Halo 2 had that really awkward Breaking Benjamin moment.
Weird trailer music aside, game sure looks hot.

I'll be buying the Xbox One primarily for this. Tomorrow is my birthday so anyone wants to give me the game? 343i? Stinkles? MS?
No? Ok...
I have to say it again: game looks so freaking good UGHH!

Yup. Locke and his little team are so cute. Maybe not Buck though. He seems to have some common sense when it comes to who they are hunting.
If a conflict between the two teams is anything other than a totally one sided stomp where Blue Team totally outclasses Osiris, I'll be pretty disappointed. We've read about blue team and their ridiculousness for a decade now; and if a hastily put together team of Spartan 4's stands a chance in 343's Halo I'll be pissed.
