I think a 'minute of gameplay' is probably overstating it somewhat.

Hype as FUCK, and I don't even give a shit about Halo. Knights of Cydonia is so good, and they really nailed the timing on it.
I'm still super hyped for this game, but it's kind of bizarre how the marketing has made it almost seem like Chief is a secondary character.
Or maybe not secondary but if you were to describe the game presented in the trailers thus far in one sentence, he would be the object as opposed to the subject. It's weird.

That secret link was a little scary. I was afraid a leak was waiting behind that click..... I'm going full Ben Giraud over here.

Think it's his armour and how it unfolds when he's contorted.
Badass.

Should have been a Halo'd version of Ready or Not.
Arby or something/someone else body slamming a fully shield Elite?
I think it's Arby.
Not a brute, it's arby, I played it in slowmo, you can see it's left leg before the slam and tell it's arby by the way elites legs have the backwards bend.

I was actually shocked at how bad that trailer was...especially considering how nicely directed the Locke cgi intro is.
This just felt like the editor didn't care at all. "THE KIDS WONT NOTICE THIS. THEY JUST WANT TO SEE EXPLOSIONS!"
Something tells me they saw the Black Ops 3 trailer and tried to emulate the frenetic cuts they do, and tried the same with Halo 5.
Just didn't splice as well.

Yeah but its not just the Taken King. He is the same character in literally any job he has ever been given. His shtick is just so old at this point
Ha I thought it was crazy jarring.

I'm kinda hyped now. The new enemies look pretty dope, at least more exciting than 4. Should be a fun co-op run.
And the cutscenes are real time, no? Halo 4's were and they had a similar style.
The first TV spot for Halo CE was similarly frenetic.

I don't know what to say except 'OMFG'. Can't wait anymore. I need to put my hands onthis right now.
even if they're in-engine (which is impressive, they look good), it's still kind of mislabelling to call it a 'gameplay trailer' when something like 1/4 of the total trailer is actually gameplay

Muse make everything better. The song suited it. Cool trailer.
Riiiight?! That's what I'm hoping for.
But the again, it's pretty awesome to go in knowing so little. Can't wait for this already.
not all
Gotcha
I can see how that can become grating. For me, I enjoyed Halo ODST a whole lot and I'm glad a bit of that is still around.

Is "gaming history" MS's phrase for 2015? or is it in most game adverts these days?

Holy fucking shit.
That's one of hell of a goosebump-inducing launch trailer.

Stinkles said that opening sequence is CG for all intents and purposes as i recall it. So thats why people are mentioning CG and i agree i also thought it was jarring.
An ok trailer.
The first minute or so is CGI though.

Yessss. 2 weeks holy moly
It's a launch trailer with gameplay in it... so yes it does fit the description.
The first minute is purely about the story....
Which is using all in-game assets, all the other cutscenes are all in-engine.
"Jarring" is such an over used word, you're watching a trailer that jumps between different scenes without transitions... of course it is jarring. Hell jumping between gameplay to gameplay is jarring without transitions.

The Trailers are usually amazing, but definitely thought that was weak and cheesy. I like the Opera classical music stuff usually associated with Halo. This seems targeted at a younger audience. Very blah.
