Transcript[edit]
FROM THE BEGINNING
YOU KNOW THE END
The surface of Reach comes into view.
- Fermion: Gamma station, this is Fermion RSO. Unconfirmed report of an in-system slipspace rupture.
- Gamma Station: Impossible. Check your source.
- Fermion: Reading multiple pings below the orbital defense grid...
- Gamma Station: Oh, this can't be happening...
- UNSC Operator: There's no mistake. It's them.
A destroyed UNSC Frigate is shown in Reach's orbit. Several other UNSC ships fly below. City lights are visible on the surface of the planet, many in circular patterns.
- UNSC Operator: WINTER CONTINGENCY has been declared. All units are mobilized and ready.
- Catherine-B320: This is Sierra three-two-zero, prepped for combat insertion.
A massive plasma blast hits the planet surface. The city lights go out, sections at a time.
- UNSC Operator: What the hell was that?
- Pilot: We're coming in hot. Hold on!
Several more plasma explosions are seen on the planet.
- Pilot: We just lost our bird!
- UNSC Commander: Oh my God...
- UNSC Commander: What the hell is happening down there?
Comm chatter overlapping, incomprehensible.
- UNSC Marine: There's still people down here!
- UNSC Commander: The city just dropped off my map!
- UNSC Marine: We need an evac...
- UNSC Marine: We're overrun. We'll hold this position as long as we can!
View zooms away from the planet, and Epsilon Eridani comes to view.
- UNSC Commander: I need you in that fight, Noble-One. Noble-One, come in. Noble-One, do you read me?
Text appears on the planet.
- HALO: REACH
- Carter-A259: This is Sierra Two-Five-Nine. You've got Spartans on the ground, sir. We're not going anywhere.
- FALLS 2010
Trivia[edit]
- The trailer without the ESRB notice is exactly 1:17 long, a reference to John's service number 117.
- The loud droning sound heard at the end of the trailer is the chant section of the original Halo theme, but stripped down to just it's background percussion with additional enhancements.
