Mind blown? Seriously, how? It's just a short CGI ad with no action or whatsoever. I'm trying my best not to sound like trolling but although admittedly I'm not a fan, can you please tell me how this is anywhere near mind blowing? This is a 100% honest request.
The hype is in the potential for how the story will turn out to be. If you've ever been hyped for a game or movie in your life you can understand. Obviously you don't know the story so you have no interest, but those of us who have been following the huge and deep story of Halo for so many years it's BIG DEAL!
Also it tells us that the campaign might have two playable sides, one from Locke's side, one from Chief's side.
Agreed, MIND OFFICIALLY BLOWN!! defo i have now gone bananas! And was that the release date at the bottom? 27/10/15? lord all mighty i cant wait to smash through the Halo 5 single player.
I have to say i LOVE MICROSOFTS HYPE MACHINE!! They really are masters at marketing thier big franchises and movig units.
Its wierd, no matter how much i see people hating on the xbox one, no matter how many blunders ms has made this generation so far, no matter the fact that i always buy every platform every generation and so have lots to play, I JUST LOVE MY XBOX ONE!!! there i said it
Seriously its a great little console, yes it has flaws as does EVERYTHING but regardless i find myself rooting for the underdog! I have this feeling that Halo 5 will be the first xbox one game which will truly show us how powerful the x1 is!
I swear i spend more time gaming and using the media capabilities of my x1 the most vs my wiiu, ps4 and pc. Even now its a complete different console to what was launched and being in the preview program makes me realise that this console will be so much better over time, as am sure the ps4 will too. I think these consoles, the PS4,X1 WiiU are seriously underrated and being underestimated!
With time i think we will see these consoles shine and give us some real gems.
All i can say is with zelda wii u delayed, and uncharted 4 delayed Halo 5 is going to be my big fall game. Thanks ms for not letting us down!! Game on my fellow gamers, and remember All platforms are great.
im also a big halo fan specially halo2.. got all achievements for halo3 and currently waiting for halo5.. but in all honesty.. i wudnt exactly call halo's story "DEEP" specially how halo4 can be categorized as a "Filler" where it feels pretty obvious halo3 was the end of the story arc.. but still this indeed is pretty intriguing.. hope there is a much more deeper narrative this time around as im mainly a single player gamer and as much as i hate to admit that ive outgrown halo's tedious campaign i still want this one to transcend to the next level like i always wanted it to after halo2. there is so much lost potential with halo chief's abilities and character they can tap into. no one can deny Master cheif is one of the greatest baddasses in videogame history!
Whoa...I just saw the other trailer, now Im wondering what the hell is going on????
@spicelicka yeah seems like its guaranteed you will play as both, which now makes perfect sense given the "hunt for the truth" ads= I hope they feel different with some unique abilities. I also agree those who haven't been diehard Halo fans since the original may not get why this news is very exciting.
So I guest it's true when Mike Colter spill the beans about his character Agent Locke having a big part in Halo 5 Guardians. Sounds like the campaign may have a 2 way plot twist to it, but my concern is will the Arbiter play a big part as well.
Great job MS for placing Halo 5 commercial during The Walking Dead Season Finale. Now can we get an AMC app... they have some good shows coming.
Holy SHIT! As someone who has read all the books all the games, all the minigames i am gobsmacked! i am so hyped... i shouldnt have watched the trailer. this seems like the kind of story you get from the books. not the games. Speechless really.
Chief should have had a quarter of the speaking he did in this commercial. They've giving him an air of humanity he doesn't have which ruins his character. It's the reason why commercials such as this one I'm linking were so amazing. Those simple two words with his actions were much more powerful than that boring monologue.
Isn't it obvious the truth is what you make of it...
I think both Chief and Locke will be both playable characters and there will be multiple endings to Halo 5.
"There are 2 sides to every story." - good vs bad is all a matter of perspective and not everything is so black and white. So this would lead me to believe there is multiple endings... and 343 have just shown us the outcome (not literally) of both. Perhaps there leaving it up to us to determine who the bad guy is and who the good guy is...
Chief and Locke are two sides of the same coin. There is two sides, two truths, two stories, two characters...
I hate to say it but there can only be one ending. The Halo Universe moves in one direction. The next game can't be based off of two endings / different deaths or whatever way this game goes.
Maybe your right maybe there is only one ending but that doesn't mean there isn't two paths to that ending, after all we don't see (or hear) either characters pull the triggers and the end of each Ad. There is no denying the emphasis on both of the characters and there different perspectives...
"Two sides to every story"
And the caption for the second trailer:
"oןɐɥ# ɥʇnɹʇǝɥʇʇunɥ# ˙ʎɹoʇs ʎɹǝʌǝ oʇ sǝpıs oʍʇ ǝɹɐ ǝɹǝɥʇ " is a mirror of "there are two sides of every story #huntthetruth #halo"
My hype level just rose through the roof. I hope this is a hint that Halo 5 is going to give players choices that will drastically change the outcome of the game. Sounds freaking amazing. Mass effect structure meets halo's legendary gameplay mechanics.
It's safe to say I haven't been this hyped for any game before. Seeing the Halo story mature this far has been a hell of a journey. Halo 5 will be the best Halo in the franchise mark my words, coming from someone who's been with this series from day one. Will always be my favorite video game series of all time.
It has the potential to be epic. Im definitely hyped! Its gonna have two campaigns. You be able to play the story as Chief and Locke and get two different endings. This game is gonna be sick! I'm playing Lockes story first... well I hope.
I don't get the hate for Locke, to me he is really intriguing and his acting in the new trailer was phenomenal. Very excited to see how this story unravels. I'm convinced we aren't getting the typical 7-8 hour mostly linear campaign, I think we're going open world.
Really? Gears and Halo are only thing that are special to me...oh and Crack down....but that's it....quantum break will probably be playable on my pc in a year after launch just like Alan wake and Tomb raider will probably be on it after 3 months....there's really nothing else I want with my xbox...
This game will be amazing. I loved halo 4 i think 343 did a great job with it. And no doubt they have been listening to the community regarding multiplayer. I am very much looking forward to it :)
Great great ads...Agent Locke is perfect he is sarcastic deadly and upgraded.... I like his commercial more...weird?.idk...I love the new energy the new vibe and the mystery .....343 is doing a great job H5=10mil
Just gotta toss this out there... if MS has been this upfront and public about Halo 5 already AND Forza 6 already then how crazy is E3 gonna be for MS?
A Halo 5 commerical... only to show the XB1 with MCC bundle. Hmmm... well played MS. The uninformed may think that Halo 5 is being bundled with the XB1 for $349 at this moment in time... well played MS. Pay attention kids and parents.
just crazy.
so curious about the campaign now.
So we have got Locke's side and Chief's. Now we just need the truth.
Chief its you? masterchief join to the darkside =(
Holy .... crap. Things just got real.
My hype level just rose through the roof. I hope this is a hint that Halo 5 is going to give players choices that will drastically change the outcome of the game. Sounds freaking amazing. Mass effect structure meets halo's legendary gameplay mechanics.
I'm confused, and I don't know if I can wrap my head around any of this. But, I like this video more so any the other one.
