First and foremost I have to say the graphics are by far the best I have ever seen. I refer back to what i have always said. The game looks just like it is supposed to, meaning this is not one of those MW2 style of games and in fact now is showing and pulling off some of the greatest special effects in any game I have ever seen and I have seen pretty much all I can. Remember these are in game effects as show in this trailer, After my first watch I had to agree with a poster on the first page that Starfox was all I could think of after watching the space seen. I get the idea but it is def a change and I hope not the doom of what looks to be my favorite game of the year. I am sure to be killed for this but the music is not even worthy of the games long line of fantastic music. Yes it is kickin arse music but not heroic enough for my tastes. The music from the original trailer was by far better than this piece. I can see the music fitting the fast paced angle because while the style of video calls for it, it still wasn't an epic piece with a beginning and end. It almost felt like it was made by G4 as a cover song for showing off the game. If you don't agree thats cool but it is just what I think. Watching that big Spartan lumbering around was kind of funny as well. It also looked like the pilot was rockin out on lift off but I am sure it was just the effect of the rockets. Maybe you can fly back down on your own as well heehee. The fighting does look pretty bad arse and man I can't waiting to sneak some covs. I wonder about the grunts and jackals because I have only seen the Elites gets killed from behind. I figure our character says nothing the whole game so that won't be anything new. Last thing is I wonder if Bungie has the ability to go in and control the camera with coordinates and not use the review camera. If they could which I can't see why not they could have made some of the flow a bit smoother and snagged a few better shots. I can't even do as good as this looks but it doesn't mean I can't ask. 1-10 - I say a 7. Mostly due to the music and space flying but mostly the music because I actually don't mind the space flight and will probably love it when I play it. I am also 99% sure the score will be hot but it doesn't mean I have to like the E3 tune. EDIT - I went back yet again and I guess it when the music changes to that fast music i don't like. Fits the attitude of Noble Team I guess but still don't care for it. I do totally get that it fits the mood they are trying to show though. [Edited on 06.14.2010 8:23 PM PDT]
