Bungie released this single Halo 3 image, supposedly a wallpaper. You can see some graphical difference between this and the E3 trailer, but there's really no reason to doubt anything this early.

they dont ship it if it isnt ready so...
But I do remember the first trailers of Halo2 and how they said it was all in real-time, and then when it was finally released the gfx were not nearly as good as in the first trailer. (the one with the MC on the ship and the gun rack).
same ground texures, lighting on the ships, ground, material. Were looking at a total different perspective than what we saw on the trailer that's all.
watch the video MS released h3_e32006_announce_large.wmv, timing might be off but MPC tells me 01:50 is that exact shot only in a different perspective.
But you cant compare that trailer with the Halo 3 Trailer. Because this Halo 3 Cutscene was running in REALTIME on an Xbox 360 @ E3 Press Conference.
Gamespot's carrie and jeff says its CGI,last year they said killzone 2 was real,and people who question it was fanboys.
MC looks the same, but the camera is just zoomed out so you can see less detail. The only thing that actually looks worse is the ground texture.
Gamespot said Halo 3 trailer was real time and they even moved Master Chief

Its one thing about the site saying it was real,its another thing when 2 staffmember says then they dont actually belive it.
For what it's worth: The Halo 3 content at Bungie.net is available. (Up until now, clicking any of the links in the Top Story or on B.net's home page simply redirected to the home page... but the section is now live.) The screenshots are all from the trailer (though they're considerably clearer than screengrabs), and the only wallpaper available is a 'Finish the Fight' one. The FAQ is worth reading - especially the bit about how the trailer is a real-time piece of work. That is: this trailer is NOT like the X02 trailer, which was rendered in-engine, but not in real time; this was recorded in real time, off stock Xbox 360 hardware. Yes, it looks that good.
The shrinkage (lol) is what makes Chief look so weird.
