Halo 2 Real-Time Trailer Spreads Round Net

Ever since the Microsoft press conference at the outset of E3, various audience-filmed videos of the Halo 2 demo showcased there have been circulating, but we've been waiting for more stable mirrors before posting. So, you can find the full trailer at IGN.com if you're a subscriber, and they have freely downloadable smaller excerpts. Thanks also to Tim Grube for pointing out this 85mb MPG Halo 2 for Xbox trailer, courtesy Gaming Horizon. Finally, and most usefully, there's now a 39mb WMV BitTorrent of the trailer up at Gametab News.

Re:Needs a bit more updating

Not really. HL2 and Halo 2 have different aims. Halo 2 wants to recreate a believable battlefield and does that better then anything else and HL2 wants to create a believable world. Both games have incredible AI and physics but use them in different ways. I am sure you would like use that swinning beam in Halo 2 but it would make sense to do this in H2 (of course as games evolve all this will be included in *any* game). The battlefield and immersion of the Halo 2 battle is stunning.... the HL2 physics and AI is stunning too... both games are about the same level on average but both games have areas that are better then the other. Don't judge so easily without thinking or explaining your opinion.

If only you could adjust the analog sensetivity to extreme levels. Im a twitch FPS player, and taking more that a few micro-seconds to do a 180 is unacceptable!
