Watch the Thrilling Opening Cinematic to Halo 5: Guardians Right Now

XboxWire:

The Halo 5: Guardians launch is right around the corner, and we’re excited to unveil the opening cinematic to the game, featuring Fireteam Osiris.

[TheGreatGamer]

Best trailer I've watched in a while

[spicelicka]

YEAAA goddamn gotta say that was one of the best trailers I've ever seen. And it's an actual cutscene!!

[The_GameBolt]

Can't wait to check this out! Love that Nathan Fillion is the featured image as well

[spicelicka]

People ask why MS keeps releasing Halo...THIS IS FOOKIN WHYYY, CUZ IT'S EPIC!!

[MeliMel]

Right up his alley with Firefly and Serenity..both cult classics! This game is shaping up to be just that aswell.

[KingKionic]

This is fantastic.

That ladies and gentlemen is how you do a intro of a game.

Halo hype train just keeps rolling forward. Cant wait till October 27th.

[ginsunuva]

This is how you do a teenage appealing intro of a game.

[-Foxtrot]

Great well made put together trailer

However where the hell was Chief, a little bit of focus on him would have been nice. I'm not really digging Locke at all and that's even after watching Nightfall. Edward Buck should have been the one tasked to hunt him down, Fillion is great.

I'm a huge Halo fan but this whole squad based focus thing is putting me off...I just want to play by myself and play as a Spartan against the world. Wouldn't really mind if it was just Locke's part of the story but it's even Chiefs aswell with the Blue team. I wonder if they could ever update the game to turn to the Squads off and just bring them in for the story cutscenes. The game comes off as Halo Reach 2 instead of Halo 5

EDIT

Disagrees for speaking my mind. Of course <sigh>

[MrSec84]

Good quality trailer no doubt, but it's a shame it's all CG and not real time to properly flow into the game.
I totally agree with what you said about the squad based stuff.

Halo is best when it's about Chief and Cortana against the forces of the enemy or trying to discover the truth of some mystery.
It's fine when you have those moments of meeting up with Earth's forces because it gave contrast to the more lonely moments of past games.
Hopefully there will be times when Locke or Chief do their own thing, getting separated from the squad and having to complete your objectives before meeting back up, otherwise it's going to feel very samey.

[-Foxtrot]

Well I'm not bothered if it's CG or not I just like to see more Halo. I think the past gameplay videos have shown it's going to good in game anyway.

However yeah I know what you mean. I liked Cortana leading Chief into the battlefield and how she was ironically the more human side of him. The story revolved around Chief, his status of being this legendary soldier and how he has to overcome everything to save the day.

Some levels made you feel alone and because you had no backup you had to tread lightly....especially on Legendary mode.

That's what I liked about the games concept when it came out. Locke vs Chielf...one on one. Chief having to survive by himself since Cortana is now gone....I was hoping he would be looking for her aswell, a way to bring her back as he tries to save the day and run from Locke. Now with the Squads I just won't feel that dread and isolation in some levels. I can just let my team handle it while they keep enemies busy and I pick them off at the back.

[MrSec84]

@Foxtrot:

I just think we're at a point where in engine rendering should be quality enough to make the flow of cut scenes into gameplay seamless, it makes for a more smooth transition and is less jarring.
I'll give the game a try when I finally pick up an XB1 at some point (maybe next year), but I can't consider Halo 5 as a core reason to buy an XB1.

I'm going to miss the old banter of Chief and Cortana, that gave Halo 1-4 soul, the constant interactions between the squad and locke don't seem as good.
Yeah the whole war between Locke and Chief would have been a better dynamic, it seems like the game's gone from being a serious, tense experience to a party with pals.
I guess that may work for the dudebro crowd, but for someone like me that was there playing Halo 1 from the beginning on the OG Xbox it's killed the franchise's appeal for me.

I'm sure I'll get negged by the rampant over the top and touchy crowd that seems to be swarming any Xbox article, but I don't care, I'm entitled to have my opinion, same goes for you.

[pandehz]

''Halo is best when it's about Chief and Cortana against the forces of the enemy or trying to discover the truth of some mystery.''

I disagree. That was Halo 1,2,3 4,

This is a different game. Why do ppl want the same experience beats me. Their companion story has been told. I want something new and this looks damn fine.

Chief is there but let it be told before you go criticizing. Give ppl a chance to tell a story. If you want the same game go play all of em again.

[4Sh0w]

@pandehz, Well said.

I really like 343's direction, I mean I suppose could have told another great story all from Chiefs perspective but I'm glad they are branching out with this format, even in more depth than the Arbiter role in the past. I like the choice to dive much deeper into Halo's lore from another fully developed plot perspective. Halo4's story was very well done and Halo5 is much bigger than Halo4 so I'm guessing that signals 343 are really exploring many of the background nuances that make Halo's universe so interesting.

You can't please everybody though, certain folks are always going to be negative no matter what= I personally just don't take those always negative folks seriously. Remember the community asked for change even then you can't make every single Halo fan happy when they do make changes but some are predisposed to find fault with whatever change or bash them if they don't change even before they have tried the product to make a informed opinion on the merits of said changes...but its all good, to each their own, that's my opinion. Either way nothing can spoil my hype after this trailer, I'm a huge Halo fan and I've watched the trailer 5, 6 times now and every time it brings a smile to my face. The campaign is set to improve on the greatness of Halo4 in every way and the Beta really already confirmed the multiplayer is back to form for me.

I hope Microsoft has this trailer on all the big tv channels and every game site....it really will get a lot of Halo fans and a lot of unbiased gamers looking for a good story driven sci-fi shooter very excited.

[MrSec84]

@Sonof: No those are not real time, they're pre-rendered, you can tell because there's absolutely no shimmer and the difference between gameplay and that is night and day, not the case for Uncharted 4.
When Halo 5 was having issues running solidly at 720p 60FPS, with visuals barely any better than Halo 4 you know it's rubbish when people claim such ridiculous things like the above trailer being real time.

Uncharted 4 blows Halo 5 gameplay out of the water.
The reflections are way too good, the scale is way beyond gameplay, you only have to compare E3 to that to see what I'm saying is true.

Poor try kid.

Edit:
OH BTW here's the link to Neogaf:
http://www.neogaf.com/forum...

Stinkles says this:
Rendered with in game assets as basis. Basically CG as far as this conversation is concerned but the majority of cinematics will be in engine.

That trailer isn't real time, confirmed by 343.

[Paytaa]

Pretty sure they're keeping Chief's story on the DL so it isn't spoiled. Everyone knows who the Master Chief is. 343 needs to introduce us to Agent Locke so by putting him as the marketing headline gets their point across. I'm glad I don't know much about Chief's side because that's where the mystery is supposed to lie if you've listened to Hunt The Truth and what not. Give it a chance. It's shaping up to be the best Halo yet and that coming out of my own mouth is as bold as it gets.

[-Foxtrot]

"343 needs to introduce us to Agent Locke"

They've literally talked about him non stop since the the proper "Guardians" reveal and even had a series around his character.

" Give it a chance "

I will give it a chance I'm just not going to blindly overhype it. I learnt from lessons from past Halo games, especially Halo 4 when it came to the multiplayer. Go into it nice and slow and you'll be better off.

@slate91

How can you have negative comments about the Master Bloody Chief...he's one of the best characters created.

[slate91]

Paytaa, if they were to show the same things with the Chief, then the same people would be saying "Oh, more of the rambo-space cowboy?" "More of the same" and so on.
There will be negative comments no matter how epic or well made something is unfortunately.

[Paytaa]

@-Foxtrot Well when Master Chief who has been established in 4 Halo games and countless novels and comics, it would make sense to really push Locke as he is the 'new guy' and I wouldn't want him getting the same treatment as Lasky or Sarah Palmer where they barely got any game time though being interesting characters.
I'm not saying blindly over hype Halo 5 but if you played the beta you probably know that the game is really solid even being a year from launch. I totally understand the skepticism by Halo 4's MP because I was the same way at first but it later grew on me but Halo 5 is a completely different beast. It feels like what Halo 2 would've been if it was made in 2015 with the competitive edge in mind. I've been playing Halo since 2001 and I adore Halo 1-3 more than any game ever made but when I say Halo 5 has serious potential to equal or even top them, I'm not just saying that.

[Erik7357]

I just think they are setting it up to not be about master chief and to move on

[shiva1]

@ Fries1223 comment #5.2.4

No No NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

If thats true I will not only break my xbox one but all the Microsoft products in my house and the gaming ends there. Thats how i will move on... and i believe there's more than one person like me on this planet.

If there is no MC then no MS for me. Geez i will hate to use my office laptop.

you feel me?

so No No No NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOO..... dont make those comments.

[Bigpappy]

Make no mistake... the Chief will be the star of the show. Them graphics are sexy as heck too.

[-Foxtrot]

Hopefully since Locke is pretty bland. They couldn't even make him interesting in the series. Did you see it? Seriously if they had someone else in the lead the series would have been much better off.

Either Buck or the Arbiter should have been written around (somehow, up to writers) to hunt down Chief.

[PudgeyBurrito]

CG

[PuppetMaster251]

Quite frankly, i got lonely sometimes when i was wandering in hostile territory with occasional interjections from Cortana in Halo 4. i feel a sort of kinship with fellow marines or spartans, and i think the squad system is a breath of fresh air. And as for focusing on the new characters, i think it is a good tactic because it increases the Masterchief's inscrutability and portrays him as something of a rogue hero. We'd get sick of the Chief pretty soon if we always focused on him.
343 can do no wrong.
anyway, each to their own!
(BTW, i thouroughly enjoyed Halo 4)

[-Foxtrot]

Yeah but you are forcing a feature/playstyle on people who don't like that sort of thing.

If you felt lonely you could always go online or have friends come over to play along with you with it's drop in and out co-op. While single player people could enjoy the story alone and isolated. You know like it's always been which worked since it catered to both audiences

Now they are doing squads and the fact they have no OPTION to turn it off so the AIs are hidden it's going to force a percentage of people to play the game in a certain playstyle they've set up.

Options would have been nice. Everyone could find something that suits them.

"We'd get sick of the Chief pretty soon if we always focused on him"

It's not like we get a main Halo game all the time.

[Paytaa]

@Foxtrot Well technically no one knows if there is ever a scenario or multiple scenarios in the game where as Chief you are on your own for a little while. Judging by the vague story we're getting on the game it isn't out of the ballpark to assume that could happen. But I do know where you're coming from. Levels like 343 Guilty Spark in Halo 1 still stick to me to this day because no Halo since captured the eeriness and sense of being alone such as that level. I personally was kind of scared back then playing it. But who knows, I'm open to a new take on the campaign. I love the Halo series enough to play it anyway the developer intended but at the same time respect those who aren't too keen on the changes. To each his own.

[Bigpappy]

I didn't follow too much of the background series they have on the app. I like to get my info in-game. Love to be surprised. Don't want to know too much before I play. May be after.

[Rimeskeem]

The first part wasn't bad,, nice dialogue but when it hit the second part i was like

https://latinaish.files.wor...

[freshslicepizza]

@-Foxtrot
"Disagrees for speaking my mind. Of course <sigh>"

there's more to it than that. i think it's safe to say you are a very hard person to please and when you add anything to do with xbox in the mix i guess this is likely the most positive response to expect. the funny thing is even when you do start to say something on the bright side you just can't help yourself to leave little captions 'but' to it.

regardless this game is going to be epic judging by the actual gameplay (this trailer didn't seem to have any) of the multiplayer alone. it's one of the few games where the online will be busy for months and the campaign will actually have some merit to it and not some afterthought.

[jb227]

We have seen that e3 campaign footage, around 5 minutes worth. It looked cool, lot of particle effects and the feeling of a warzone but the huge maps made it feel a bit barren for my tastes, not to mention the fact that there was little in the way of combat during it. I want to see some more campaign footage personally that shows the range of the game, wouldn't want it to be a loosely strung together campaign that just highlights the big open maps specifically made for Warzone. There's a healthy medium between corridors and open areas that make campaigns for me.

[Christopher]

*** i think it's safe to say you are a very hard person to please***

I see nothing wrong with being hard to please. Much better than the droves of people who are easily pleased by anything with one thing or another just because of the company attached to a title.

It's a fine CG trailer, but wouldn't say best and wouldn't say it did anything to get me more interested in the game. But, it's not aimed at me, it's aimed at Halo fans who already love the franchise.

[KiwiViper85]

Foxtrot to a T

[DLConspiracy]

I kind of feel like you are jumping to consulsions before actually playing it. Clearly MC has a LOT to do with Halo 5. Regardless of assumptions. The trailer looked bad a**. Plus, I look forward to playing Co op online with my friends. Really excited for it.

[OpieWinston]

Mission 1 Team Osiris
Mission 2 Blue Team

This is for Mission 1 not 2. And this takes place RIGHT after Halo 4 Spartan Ops. When Halsey was kidnapped by Jul.

[Yetter]

Its the opening of the game, and you clearly start as Agent Locke and his squad.

And the disagrees are because you have a reputation around here and you know it

[Thunder_G0d_Bane]

So you want to play the same old campaign as nearly every halo game? It was getting old and boring. I didn't even play halo 4 after Reach I felt I was pretty much done with halo cause it wasn't changing its formula.

Now after playing the halo 5 beta I'm soooo stoked cause it made all the changes it needed and the campaign looks so damn intriguing I really can't wait to play it.

Not to mention the addition of Warzone is everyone I hoped halo would have for multiplayer.

I'm sorry you want things to stay the same but you can always play the old halo games on MCC right? Single player and lonely by yourself.

I'll enjoy this squad co op :)

[PhucSeeker]

Disagree button is not a dislike button. People doesn't agree with what you said so they hit the DISAGREE button. It doesn't mean that they don't respect your opinion or anything.

OT : I'm a sucker for Ghost Recon and SW republic commando. So Halo 5 hits me on all the right spots, except for couch co-op.

[dmeador]

Why are you complaining people are disagreeing with you? That is how disagrees work. They are disagreeing with your opinion.

[Chanogram]

You do realize that speaking your mind (opinions) is EXACTLY what the agree and disagree buttons are for?

Just because someone doesn't agree with your opinion doesnt mean you have to get bent out of shape.

Now if you had just listed a bunch of facts with no opinion, then you'd have a case to be irritated. If agrees/disagrees are that important to you, N4G is probably not the healthiest place for you.

[MeliMel]

Not for nothing but you've disagreed plenty for others speaking thier minds aswell. It works both ways.

[GusBricker]

Holy Osiris!

[ScorpiusX]

He screwing with Halsey Chief going to put a stomping on Osiris team starting w/Locke , can't wait to put that character light out . sweet

[Rookie_Monster]

OmG!! That was all running on in game engine folks. Oct 27th can't come soon enough!

[Sm00thNinja]

Where did you get that that was not in-engine it was impressive regardless but don't just pull stuff out of nothing

[d_g]

"Those are the in game models with some post processing advantages. But after you guys watch the entire whatever-this-is tomorrow I will be interested to see the questions and answer some of them"

Neogaf

[TOPRPGNUT]

Frankie already said this cutscene was CGI and the rest of the cutscenes would be in-engine..

[sammarshall102]

I need this Sci-fi masterpiece as of yesterday

[maulberto3]

I don't are much about Halo, but that was an impressive opening cinematic, definitely sets the tone, great shooter!

[FlexLuger]

Behold..the unparralled bad assness of spartans...the epicness of halo... :)

My fave series of all times is back! Wooohoo!

[d_g]

the hype is to damn high

[Mikefizzled]

Now that is falling with style. I'm hyped.

[FoxyGotGame]

Great CGI Trailer, yes CGI, meaning those assets are not possible on X1 or any current gen system. It sets the tone for the game for sure.

I'm looking forward to all the back peddlers excuses when they realize Halo 5 will not look like that on their screens. Honestly, you people are super gullible falling for that PR post processing nonsense. Embarrassing /

[raggy-rocket]

Oh dear god, it's beautiful. It gave me chills

The music... Classic halo music is back, much more classic feel with a modem twist. This is going to be the best Halo ever, I just know it. Truly amazing, I knew halo 4 was a bit slow because it was just a setup of what was to come. Amazing job 343, this trailer gave me chills. Bravo.

[Paytaa]

Wow I just got the worst chills ever. That was so cool. Halo 5 is literally a work of art. This is how powerful Spartans were supposed to be since day one. We've come along way since Combat Evolved but this is going to be so amazing. Great job 343. Prove the naysayers wrong.

[n4rc]

really agree there... when i watched them tearing through the battlefield, i thought THIS is what Spartans should look like.. never recall seeing that kind of power displayed.

never played 4 but i definitely think im getting this one

[terminallyCapricious]

I recommend 4. The story was the best of the series in my opinion, but it might soon be replaced by this game.

[WellyUK]

4 was very good just ignore the haters it has probably the best story of them, people just hate on it coz the MP wasn't what they were expecting.

[n4rc]

yeah i didnt avoid it for any reason other then preference.. was more into realistic shooters and simply had other games to play..

heard it was really good but the MP was different..

[slate91]

Wow didn't see that coming.

[Tedakin]

wow that was kind of amazing.

[pelenow]

Two words. Bad. Ass. That is all.

[user9950279]

Seems like this game might have some... explosions?

Looks badass. The animation is really impressive.

[Sm00thNinja]

Wooooooooow that was the most bad ass trailer I've seen all year. Fanboys be like its not gameplay. Who effing cares that was glorious

[TOPRPGNUT]

Frankie already said this cutscene was CGI and the rest of the cutscenes would be in-engine.

[Sm00thNinja]

Annnnd I didn't say he didn't say that??

[C L O U D]

Never seen half a ton fall in such style

[Satyre28]

Why you do this 343! I was so excited getting ready to finally play MGS 5, and now i cant stop thinking about when i can finally play this... FML, that looked so good, i literally got the chills.

[lastking95]

Vale is a ninja bruh, great trailer.
If playlist are right and chiefs side is good halo 5 will be the best halo yet. Everything they've shown has been on point.

[PuppetMaster251]

f*&*^%^& awesome! if i was pumped before, i'm biting my nails now! it looks truly legendary.
also, amazing photorealistic CGI

[GusBricker]

Okay, now imagine how Chief and blue team are going to be introduced...

[Fin_The_Human]

Blue Team....dude don't use those words around here - my body is not ready for that type of epicness.

[OhMyGandhi]

I am incredibly impressed. Even though I went to PS4 this generation, I was the biggest Halo fan on the original xbox and the 360, and I am damned happy to see the franchise return to form.

Like people have said before, it doesn't matter if it's in engine or CG or whatever, It's not only one of the best game trailers I've seen, it's one of the best halo trailers I've seen, and that's quite an accomplishment.

[Rookie_Monster]

The trailer is not CGI, it is running on in game engine as was already verified by a certified and longtime Halo programmer, Stinkles, at Neogaf.

http://m.neogaf.com/showthr... Originally Posted by Stinkles

Frank O'Conner also confirmed its in game assets but they are not real time and have been given extra massaging...so same models but at a much better render pipeline. So it has the benefit of looking very similar to the game but much better.

[jb227]

So are they showing off proper campaign gameplay tomorrow? That's what I want to see, cg's don't do it for me, I'd rather see real time footage of what the majority of my experience will be, not cg's that are fully directed. The E3 gameplay looked good but I want to see a bit more in action.

[aconnellan]

I completely understand what you're saying, you can't go wrong with kickass gameplay.

That said, I think this cinematic blows any other Halo cinematic out of the water in terms of setting the tone, characters, action, and cinematography.

It's also the opening cutscene of the game, so it's not like they stitched together a bunch of random CGI shots and cut it into a trailer - this is most likely one of the first things you'll see in the game, and it's all using awesome in-game assets.

So damn good

[4Sh0w]

aconnellan, My thoughts exactly...the trailer really ramps up excitement for the game; the fact its how the game opens up is f*cking cool as hell.

[lategamer]

In that thread he basically says for all intents and purposes it is CG.

[GearSkiN]

HOLLYY!! LLEEEETTTSS GGGEEEETTTTT IIIIIITTTT!!!

[beans]

That looked really really good! 343i appears to have put the soul back into Halo.

[ScorpiusX]

Anyone realize Lasky looks different , seem slimmer ,more long faced . crazy

[Elit3Nick]

Bear in mind that he's the captain of the Infinity now, so he's probably been through a lot since the events of Halo 4

[cl1983]

It's only 56 days we can make it breath in and breath out breath in and breath out.

[FlexLuger]

Helps that halo:MCC works online properly these days. Still an awesome way to to take the edge off the wait. I was playing BTB earlier. the halo 4 BTB maps are awesome for CTF ;)

[N0TaB0T]

Buck almost looked like Charlie Sheen there from the very beginning but this is honestly the coolest trailer for any game I've seen this year. Seriously, Kudos to 343, free steak to all the guys who've made this possible. Buck has got me beyond hyped.

Believe. Always believe.

[cl1983]

Would this be a luke tacklier

[DrumBeat]

That was goddamn amazing.

[urwifeminder]

As a certain gears character would say BOOM ha ha kept hearing it in my mind watching the trailer boomers are haunting me, this looks great may re watch the tv show for the locke action between this and Forza will i have time for Starwars.

[StrayaKNT]

GOTY RIGHT HERE WOW

[Vasto]

Halo just gives you a feel that no other game can. Cant believe its almost here!

[no_more_heroes]

That was pretty epic!

[OC_MurphysLaw]

Looks like 343i has the swagger to back up the talk. That was pretty fantastic.

[Dezmond]

OMG that trailer is amazing. Show me more

[Yetter]

Looks like these cutscenes have progressed significantly since we last saw one at E3. Super hyped!

[Balance619]

Outstanding can't wait!!!!!!!

[Sciurus_vulgaris]

Amazing trailer. They really got the super soldier aspect of the series nailed.

Aside:
Also I see a certain user has trotted into the article to do his usual trolling of Xbox and Halo.

[Fin_The_Human]

Exactly...as much as I love Bungie the vision of what a true Spartan should be and can do never progressed from HalO CE.

[aviator189]

totally epic.
and frankie says this cuts straight into gameplay.

[81BX]

Welcome home spartans!

[lunatic0001]

i like

[JVIV]

Halo is black guys!

[spicelicka]

XD

[Azzanation]

Well I am impressed. Seems like a must have exclusive this year.

[JMyers]

Wow. Looks awesome. SPARTANS! PREPARE FOR GLORY!... Not Halo I know, but seems fitting!

[boodi]

holy shit .I have both but must say it's def nice to have an xb1 this gen -and this year

[boodi]

I'd wish the halo movie was this , to begin with ; and follow with same grip and blowing scenes .

[masa2009]

I'd be more impressed if they could do that kind of stuff in real time with some degree of player imput.
This looks like another badass characters choreographed intro cutscene, a better one than most granted, but still...

[FlexLuger]

Just a lil suttin to get everybody pumped. lookin forward to unleashing my inner spartan on multiplayer.Its a different skill set required to play halo, compared to other FPS. Raw skill and betetr than average reactions are everything. Its the fighting game of FPS games.

https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[CartBlanche]

I'm not a Halo fan, but that was great cinematic trailer! Impressive start. Hope it cuts straight into the gameplay at the end, Uncharted style and that the graphics fidelity is maintained, as that looks very nice indeed!!!

[lxlkuyaboilxl]

I'm really digging the "single camera shot" look they're going for with that action sequence. I wonder if we'll see more of that in the rest of the game.

So far the first hour of MGSV:TPP uses that technique and it's amazing.

[masterfox]

lol people forgot what Halo is about, also that was a nice prerendered intro but that ain't in hell Halo, people saying Halo is back, daaammmn son go back and play Halo 1 so you can know who the Chief is, saying this is Halo you should be ashamed of yourself, I'm really upset about this supposed Halo game, right now Halo is like Metroid for me, still waiting for true experience from its original formula, for example Metroid Prime was great yes it was but Super Metroid in the SNES was and still King in the series is untouchable right now, with Halo, Halo 1 was and still is a masterpiece the flood, the covenant all against the Chief along side your partner Cortana the experience was freaking awesome along side great gameplay, but now with Halo 5..ugh this Co-op crap, daammnnn!!, and who the hell is this black generig guy? at least create one that looks original put a damn scar or something, seriously nobody notice the emotionless faces in that trailer ?

Yeah everybody going nuts for this well ok for them, but somebody has to say the true cold facts about what a real Halo game is.

This should be called Halo: ODST 2.

Master Chief is all upset of you people including me.

[StrayaKNT]

"black generic guy"

Why you racist and mad bro?

[masterfox]

racist ? just because I said generic ? I referred as black to that character cause I don't know his name in the game so I pointed out in that way so everyone will know who I am talking about, and why I say generic ? cause it lacks personality or emotions(they should take some points from ND excellent emotions from their games) in all few videos I have seen of this new Halo ..ugh 5 game, I could say the same for every other ethnic if I saw this kind of expressions. A example of a good character, awesome and also is Black is Drebin from MGS 4 dunno if you play that game ?, another one cool character is Cole from Gears.

So there you have it didn't mean to be rude with that phrase.

On topic: Halo 5 ain't a Halo game.

[81BX]

Like it or not this is the real halo.

[xPaYDaYx]

People be eating up all them explosions and crazy action scenes in the west. Why you think all those awful superhero films and Michael Bay movies do so well. Honestly the characters themselves looked decent, the textures on everything else was awful. Don't even get me started on the horrible facial emotionless people.

[masterfox]

Well at least somebody gets the point :D

[Godmars290]

Just wondering as much praise the trailer is getting how much does it really represent actual gameplay.

[GranTurismoFan]

Day one.

[ipach]

femshep!

[beereal360]

My Playstation will be collecting dust.

[Antwan3k]

The fact that so many people are mistaking this for CGI speaks volumes..

This game looks amazing, that trailer set an awesome tone, and I can only hope the overall gameplay package delivers..

Can't wait..

[TheHaloGuy]

Where does it say it's not cg?

[TOPRPGNUT]

CGI.

[Jag-T1000]

Is that Charlie Sheen?

[JWiLL552]

No, because Charlie Sheen wears a wig and that's Fillion's real (CGI) hair :D

[corroios]

Halo 5 is the real Triple AAA, system seller of the Xbox One for this christmas.

No doubt this game will sell in a big way. Like Halo MCC, last year. Microsoft is doing a very good publicity and this trailer is really nice.

Maybe next gen we will be able to play game with the quality of this trailer. So much going on. Nice.

I own a PS4 but I got to say, MS sure knows how to make great trailers and commercials for its Halo series. That trailer was really good.

Honestly those female Spartans are bad azz! The pink or violet one reminds me of Samus. As long as this game is nothing like Reach we are in for a huge treat!

Looks ok i'm getting it but comments like this, cod, bf etc are ott as usual.

Incredible cinematic there. Some seriously awesome fight choreography.

I'm not sure why anyone is commenting about graphics though, the highest of high end PCs can't run that in real time! Just enjoy it for what it is.

No way this is in game cinematic quality. It's gotta be cg.

Halo 5: The Avengers

Seriously did they get freakin' Joss Whedon himself to direct this. That was pure adrenaline to the max craziness - CANNOT WAIT FOR HALO 5!!!

Possibly one of the best cinematic trailers my eyes have seen...At almost every corner it was suspenseful!! 343 is the real deal.

[husomc]

was that a real time cutscene ?

[Lenrulesdaworld]

in game assets but for the most part it will be pretty close graphically.

[ATi_Elite]

Kinda reminded me of G.I.JOE wearing the suits in the streets of Paris.

Other than that Great Graphics and I'm excited for Halo 5.

[TOPRPGNUT]

Nice CGI.
