==Synopsis==
==Synopsis==
The video begins with various images of [[Kez'katu-pattern Phantom|Phantom]] dropships unloading [[Jiralhanae|Brute]] forces who brutalize human [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]], as well as [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}}s and [[CAS-class assault carrier|assault carriers]] [[glassing]] [[Earth]]. It is narrated by the [[Prophet of Truth]] speaking for the Covenant, mocking the humans' attempts to defend the world. The movie cuts to the [[John-117|Master Chief]], and continues on with nothing but a dramatic new rendition of the Halo theme (on the ''Halo 3'' Original Soundtrack, it is titled "One Final Effort") and showing the Master Chief and the [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]] battling through various Earth areas, against Phantoms and a new [[Deutoros-pattern Scarab|Scarab]]. It features [[Yanme'e]], [[Jiralhanae]], [[Mgalekgolo]], [[Unggoy]] and [[Sangheili]]. as well as a brief glimpse at a [[Kig-yar]] engaged in combat, as well as a glimpse of the new HUD system, which contains several new components.

==Revelations==
Line 12: Line 12:
The video contains several revelations for the game, both to canon and to campaign play. The biggest of which is that it seems that Master Chief and the Arbiter fight side by side throughout at least some of the game, defending Earth from the Brutes. Numerous shots show the Arbiter and the Master Chief fighting enemy Brutes and their Drone and Grunt forces. The video was the first to officially confirm that the Arbiter will be appearing in the game, and also features other members of the [[Sangheili]] race, confirming that the Elites and Marines now fight together against the Covenant.

The video also features the apparent revelation that [[Kez'katu-pattern Phantom|Phantom]]s will be destructible, and able to be shot down in the campaign. It also features all new [[Deutoros-pattern Scarab|Scarab]] walkers, much more heavily armed and armored than those that have appeared before.

343 Guilty Spark and [[Cortana]] make their first appearances, showing that they, along with the Master Chief and Arbiter, are reunited at some point. Furthermore, it is shown that other than the Brutes, some Covenant warriors have undergone minor changes from ''Halo 2''. Hunters and Elites look almost identical to their former appearances, while Drones and Grunts are given significant technical improvements. The Grunts appear less "cute" and more grub-like, with red eyes and slack mouths (as seen in screen shots on Bungie.net). Human Marines have undergone major graphical improvements, and Commander [[Miranda Keyes]] has undergone an overhaul, with a more defined uniform and hair, which is noticeably browner than before.
