-The Halo Announcement Trailer was the trailer that first unveiled [[Halo: Combat Evolved]] to the public. It was created when Halo was still going to be a Real-Time Strategy game for the Mac and PC. The version of Halo shown in the trailer differs heavily from the final game, but some of the core elements, like [[Spartan-II]] supersoldiers, [[Elites]], the [[Warthog]] and many weapons, were already in. The music played in the trailer is the [[Halo Theme]].

-The trailer begins with a Spartan-II in a early version of [[Alpha Halo]]s [[Control Room]], seemingly doing some operatons with [[The Core]]. He then runs away, and ends up in a hangar with a few [[Banshees]] and two [[Elites]] with [[Energy Swords]]. He taunts the Elites, and runs through  some Forerunner corridors as they chase him. He exits into a open hilly area, with a [[Warthog]] and two other Spartans, the other of whom is firing a [[Assault Rifle]]. All three Spartans jump into the Warthog and drive across the hills, the Elites unable to catch the vehicle.
+The '''''Halo'' announcement trailer''' first unveiled ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' to the public at Macworld [[1999 (real world)|1999]] running in real-time on a Power Mac G3 with Rage 128. At this point in development, ''Halo'' was still a third-person shooter for the Mac, and while this early build of the game differed heavily from the retail version, it featured recognizable core elements such as [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartan-II]] supersoldiers, [[Sangheili|Elites]], and the [[M12 Force Application Vehicle|Warthog]].
-As the Warthog drives through the hills, two Elites spot it and give chase with their [[Ghosts]]. The Warthog opens fire with its [[M41 LAAG]] and manages to flip the other Ghost over, after which the other gives up. The Warthog then stops and the Spartans disembark, spotting a Banshee guarded by two Elites down in a valley. One of the Spartans jumps into the Warthog and drives past the Elites, distracting them. The second Spartan jumps behind the [[Plasma Rifle]]-wielding Elite and points a [[Pistol]] at his head, making the Elite surrender. The third one makes a run for the Banshee and takes off, avoiding blasts from the second Elite's [[Fuel Rod Gun]]. The Banshee flies across the landscape, and another Spartan is seen atop a tall hill, waving a [[Bungie]] flag.
