New live-action short to debut tomorrow. Dunno if it's webisode length or just a commercial.

Just a commercial. An extended version that is 2 minutes and 50 seconds is supposed to debut on XBL tomorrow, but only for gold members
I'll just wait for it to hit the web

Epic trailer. I liked the ODST one better, though.
Also, I guess that there's no limit to custom content items. Image

That didn't seem like HALO at all. Maybe I'm not aware of canon and fiction, but I had no idea what was going on. I also thought Carter looked like Tom Hanks.t

It's something that's discussed in the books -- the augmentation process of the Spartans.

I don't get the part with the picture thingy of the parents...un-canonical!

I like how we get to see Mendez in the extended video.

Whoever said that all Spartans were taken from places where nobody would miss them?
A tad off-topic: I was just browsing Facepunch, and as it turns out, there are still 13 or so people playing Halo 2 on XBL, as they refused to turn off their XBoxes. I applaud their valiance.

S III's were not taken from their parents, their families were killed by the Covenant.

Not all of them. Some were orphans, some taken from their parents, some without parents.

I'm fairly certain the old guy in the extended version who inspects them is Mendez.


I feel sick because I may not be given my xbox in time for the beta......................

I'm sure the beta will last at least a month.
