A bunch of space marines, Spartans, are gearing up to go fight some huge alien threat, the Covenant. |
Amazing right? I can't believe they took this story in this arc for Halo in this trailer. Madness! I am totally crapping myself now.
If you couldn't tell, sarcasm galore. This trailer does nothing for anybody but the die hard fan boys that want to blow Master Chief and see something like him. It does nothing to explain or show off the game in the least bit except to have gamers think, "Oh yea... There is another Halo coming out." Where is the excitement of what we will all get to look forward to? Where is all the new background story? Where is the actual game? This completely feels like a very well done fan film and not a game trailer or tease.
Maybe Microsoft and Bungie are hiding the real information so as to not outshine the Windows Phone 7 announcement. Who knows? But at least they where nice enough to give us all a release window of this year for the game, with Multiplayer Beta sometime this year too. May 3rd for those not in the know. Not that you could have gotten that date from the "trailer."
