'''''Halo: Arms Race''''' is a short video created in collaboration with [[Bungie|Bungie Studios]], [[Neill Blomkamp]], [[WETA Workshop]] and [[Origami Digital LLC]] and the first piece of live-action media in the ''Halo'' series. Released on [[2007|July 10, 2007]] on [[Bungie.net]] only hours after the [[Halo 3 E3 2007 Trailer|''Halo 3'' E3 2007 Trailer]], the video is intended primarily as an experiment to test Halo's real-world media potential as well as advertisement for ''[[Halo 3]]''. It runs for 1 minute 52 seconds.<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=ethreeblowout Bungie.net E3 post]</ref> It is part one in a trilogy of short films known as ''[[Halo: Landfall]]''. 

==Synopsis==
<div class="floatright"><youtube width="300" height="200">3sQfc0VIRMk</youtube></div>
The video contains no dialog, instead narrating with text from a computer. It begins with the request from a [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[Battle group|Battle Group]], [[Sol Defense Group 3/A-5]] requesting repair and resupply. Once the request has been granted the video then goes on to show production of [[Sniper Rifle System 99D-S2 Anti-Matériel|SRS99D-S2 AM Sniper Rifles]], [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] and [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODST]] helmets and suits, [[M12 Warthog LRV]]s, [[D77-TC Pelican]]s, [[BR55HB SR Battle Rifle]]s, and [[M6G Personal Defense Weapon System|M6G Magnums]] on the assembly line and ready for action in a [[Misriah Armory]] facility on [[Mars]]. It also shows several shots of the enlistment of UNSC Marines into a unit called [[S4/BAG/2/5]] (including the addition of a barcode to the back of a marine's neck, as well as being injected with an augmentation drug or electronic ID such as an [[Identification friend or foe|IFF transponder]]), and then the arming of the marines. Finally, the short cuts to a marine holding a BR55HB SR Battle Rifle stands on war-stricken ground when an explosive detonates next to him, before ending with ''"Halo 3, Finish the Fight."''
