Yeah after listening I gotta agree. Sounds like an action movie soundtrack, and the guitars on Beauty of Cortana make me cringe

Revival! goosebumps!! :D

totally ruined the fucking track.

ughh...

Agree!! by far the best one on the ost so far :)

I think people genuinely hate to see how great this game is coming along. It annoys people and I love it :)

Some people don't seem to realize that some of those samples aren't in the actual game, but are apart of special remixes that will be included on the actual game OST. You silly, silly men :D

I still like "aaAAaaah"s more than "hee Hah Hay Ha"s. My fav so far was from the Magic of Halo vid.

Also, I think that Cortana one is the remix version...

Exactly... But let them continue on. They need something negative to say about the game. :P

More or less confirming the separation between the actual tracks and the remixes. The Cortana one isn't even apart of the actual game soundtrack in any form.

That Revival remix is kinda badass. I really love the sound of Awakening. Can't wait to see which part of the game that one is used.

Ascendancy, I mean, not awakening. Love it. I definitely think Ascendancy has something to do with Cortana likely becoming a much more powerful AI, unlike anything humans have seen before, probably thanks to something they find.

Holy shit! we get to meet the composer?

Composer - Complete Mission 7 on any difficulty (10G)

Going to try and get some tickets for this!!

I called that shit. Been saying it over and over and over :P

I don't remember who the Composer was anymore.

Youtube recommnded me this Halo3 ODST trailer, so I clicked to watch it again after 4 years (yeah they announced it in Fall 2008, time flies). Damn I wish they made Halo CG movie with exactly that artstyle, simply amazing.

New FUD Enlist promo.

http://halo.xbox.com/en-US/Universe/detail/forward...

Yea, that was awesome, szaromir, but that was also with all the effects work done. What was showcased for FUD was with almost none of the effects, post production work being done according to Frankie. When the final coat of paint goes onto Forward Unto Dawn, you may find yourself pretty surprised. Yea, the ODST trailer was insanely badass. I love the music from it most of all.

Great promo for FUD there. I liked the way they did that.

FUD is still a low budget live action. It may be cool for what it is, but nothing more.

Good Lord, is that what 18 year olds look like? Man, I feel older and older every day :( It's bad when barber can kick you ass. Seriously, if there is one thing that has irritated me about the FUD stuff, is how much those people DON'T look like soldiers. I guess the point is that they are brand new? Watching a bunch of stick figures driving a warthog doesn't exactly resonate. It's like when they had that Carter vid for Reach- he wasn't anywhere near what I see a spartan looking like.

Someone get CASTING ON THE LINE!!..

If you go to a Marine academy that's exactly what they look like fresh out of school.. You are getting old ;)

Well, that's part of the point Froz :P

They are the brats of high ranking UNSC brass, and are training for future high command positions. What they are wearing isn't even real combat gear, but training gear. They aren't suppose to look like soldiers, because they really aren't :)
