Makes me wish for a Halo film even more.....
Nah I getcha. I enjoyed ODST for what it was, though, a kinda dorky take on the Noir genre Halo-style.
Sucks we never saw Noble Team do anything this cool, though.
"You're on."
Though, for everyone else saying that Spartans are supeheroes now, Chief was already pulling that shit since 2 (bomb scene comes to mind).
There is no context in which this isn't fucking dumb.
I dug his voice, though.

Even in Bungie's Halo they call em eggheads. Huh.

Well there's always the subjective one. Ithink that screen you picked looks badass.

Really? I think it looks badass.

I guess its a bit hokey but who cares, its a crazy sci-fi universe
Well, I suppose if you think Bayformers has good design, anything is possible.
Only in your world is that fucking dumb. Have you not seen the promethteans? That character goes along with the aesthetic design of the promethteans.

Will not watch, but nice to see that it seems to be well received.
Will find out once I start up the game in October.
Despite my obvious and repeated gripes about features missing that I consider essential, I truly hope that the rest of the package somewhat makes up for it. There are various other games for which I don't even touch the multi and remain satisfied with, if Halo 5 turns up the quality enough on the campaign side for me to feel like that, at least it won't be a total loss.

Slowpoke game Chief always clashed with augmented super human book Chief. Only took 7 games to fully bridge the gap.

Aside from the S-II backflip kick thing on the brute chieftain in h4 is that the first time we've seen Spartans actually depicted as they are in the books?

Yep.
That looks fucking awesome.

The trailer was far too choreographed though and just felt really fake to me. I hope action cutscenes aren't all like that...

fffffffffffffffffffffffffff! that was bad ass
still, Chief > these noobs.

These are top tier Spartan IV'S not all elites are made the same not even close. Spartans have stats of this level. Those are zealots of the new covenant, not members of the fleet of particular justice.

LOL, Noticed that as well.
This is why I had a meh reaction.
It looks sweet, but I know that no way in hell will the gameplay ever reflect that.
Unless you're playing on Normal like a bitch.

This is also a universe of great apes wearing samurai armor sprinting around with giant hammers. You get your sci fi goodness, your hokey, your wise-ass NPC one-liners, and your Aliens rip-off gung-ho bits, and your tongue in cheek, and sometimes, rarely, you even get some tender moments, maybe even to some moody jazz. Its been a mix.
Mmmhmm
Halo Wars' cinematics had SII's ninja-flipping all over the place. It felt a little over-the-top at the time, then I stopped being uptight and allowed myself to enjoy it.

Yea if these petty Spartans can wreak that kind of Havok in H5 the chief should be able to split elite armor in half with his ass hair.

I'm actually a little worried about the Blue Teams intro given this one.. Three Sixty no scope snipes from Linda, MC sticking an elite from five hundred meters away... I mean how do you up the ante from this?
I just hope 343 doesn't lose sight of what made Halo great in the first place - exploration and wonderment on a vast alien and foreign world.
If you've watched the package or read Reach or the first strike you'd know they don't take shit slow.
