Halo Reach: Video game advertising goes to whole new level
Posted on 30. Apr, 2010 by Jonathan Cherry.
We haven’t played a video game since we demolished a few hapless youngsters at a game of Wii Table Tennis about 2 months ago, so hadn’t even noticed that the trailers for the titles now look cooler than Hollywood blockbuster previews.
Birth of a Spartan is the journey of a young Carter-259, future leader of Noble Team, as he undergoes the medical augmentation procedures that are the final stage in his transformation from a young man into a Spartan III super soldier. Noble Team will be the protagonists of Halo Reach, the all-new next chapter of the Halo video game series on XBOX 360. We follow Carter from moment he wakes up in the morning, to his space flight to the orbital medical facility, through the actual procedures, and finally culminating in his dramatic realization of his transformation at the end of the film.

The game itself will only be available in six months time, but from the trailer – we wanna see the movie and own the music. The visuals, soundtrack and stark grading on this really create a stirring mood that we’re sure will appeal to gamers well beyond the thrill of watching the topspin passing shot we so expertly mastered.
