It seems IGN has dibs for now, you could probably find a download somewhere though

Today, Microsoft unveils a “Halo 3: ODST” live-action short, a 90 second ad spot for the eagerly awaited Xbox 360 exclusive, “Halo 3: ODST.” The ad debuts today exclusively on MySpace at www.myspace.com/gametrailers and IGN.com. The “Halo 3: ODST” live-action short is a haunting, action-packed production that charts the life of a UNSC Orbital Drop Shock Trooper, or ODST.
In addition to the online debut of the 90 second short, Halo fans in the United States will be treated to a special, extended two minute 30 second version exclusively on Spike TV on Monday September 7. The extended version will premiere during “Band of Brothers” at 10:30 PM ET/PT.
The short will also be available to download on Xbox LIVE starting September 8.
For the production of the “Halo 3: ODST” live-action short, Microsoft and Bungie partnered with ad agency TAG SF, Legacy Effects (props), Asylum (visual effects) and Final Cut (editing). The short features an original musical score written and produced by Human. The short was directed by Rupert Sanders with MJZ, the director of the award-winning “Halo 3” ad spot “Believe.” The short was filmed on location in Budapest, Hungary.
until then you'll probably have to manage with youtube
I can tell you're all really excited for that new Halo game, but would anyone be interested in playing Halo 2 with me on the PC? My gamertag is Peewi.
I've been sitting on every achievement other than these twomotherfuckers for the longest time. So if we could run through every gametype and map quickly, I'd be down for that. We could keep every game long enough so that we could have some fun with it, but short enough so that we could get through them all sometime within the next century.
We could do that. I'm playing right now, so just add me to your friends list and invite me to a game.
I'm going to be busy for the next few hours, and we need three players (I know a guy, but he's not on right now), but if you're going to be around later tonight, that could work.
Damn, turns out I read the description wrong and we're going to need at least one more player for the achievements. Any takers.
And that ad didn't really impress me too much. That gritty, "only one colour exists in the world, and it is depressing" look just doesn't mix well with Halo, and it makes the aliens look ridiculous. The scenes with brutes, both in this and in Blomkamp's shorts were downright embarrassing.
Alright duders, I'm up for some Haloin' but I don't see anyone on playing it. So I'm gonna go dick around in Batman for awhile. Y'all wanna play, hit me up.
Badman, Snack Road, given that L4D2, Firefight and Rock Band are all conveniently four-player, would it work out to meet myself and Viscount in the Queue Room tomorrow and go around them as a team? I'll be heading into the Queue Room as early as I can, and IMO it makes sense to get there early so the Firefight queue is ten minutes instead of thirty. If you folks are up for it, let me know.

I'm pretty sure Vis is the only one with an internets capable phone
Also, so frustrating. I passed my entire Storm previous run time and I was only to the first Wraith part with the two wraiths. I went to grab the skull, the normal wraith looks at me...
...I love me some Halo but that trailer was pretty "meh". Slow paced National Geographic tribal bush dance music doesn't really get me in the mood for war.

what if the ODSTs dropped onto a timho's and set it on fire?
Clorfhanger/ all other people wanting to boost H2 achieves.. I'll be in there in a bit, but I'm an hour into this grind run. I'll be there as soon as I finish it

Hey guys I'm new to the forum. I'm up for some Halo 3 anytime!
I'm up for H2Vista achievement boosting sometime.[/QUOTE]
Related issue: Leitner (Colonel) has every achivement barring his Perfection. And only about half of them are boosted for so far!
Well, would any of you be willing to go into some games until we get a slayer game on a mythic map, and boost that last one?
Thanks.
Onto the trailer, personally, I'm not sure why, but I didn't find it anywhere near as amazing as most of you did. It was decent, sure, but not really setting a very high bar...
of course i also like the commenter that goes "that's a bullshit excuse". really? I mean it's very obvious that a lot of these people have never actually had to deal with hardware limitations in a game and are much better sources on what the engine can do than the actual developer. Oh wait, they are not.
Kid is a turd. I bet if he was allowed a more full on conversation with them we would hear his voice get shakey and see his eyes tear up over the loss of his ultimate weapon.
"Well, we had limited resources and wanted to put more towards enriching and expanding the environment and the two new weapons which already split the functionality of the battle rifle. So, instead of adding a tired and now redundant weapon, you have a larger and more diversified world and armory."
"Waaah. You guys suck."
It's always bothered me to see the sense of entitlement some gamers have towards developers. It's a crutch weapon, kid. Have a coke and a smile and shut the fuck up.
It's like people don't understand. Each weapon takes up RAM, and processing time to have in the sandbox. By removing the BR (weapons are intensive, because they have both first person AND third person models loaded into memory -at the same time-), like he said himself, they were able to add more stuff to the enviroment. It's like people have forgotten that this is the same reason not all weapons are on all maps, is because they literally cannot all fit in RAM at the same time and have the game look good or run well.
And of course they're all looking past the fact that the fucking carbine is still in the game. With the new SMG, the new pistol, and the Carbine, the BR is redundant. It looks boring, it sounds boring, no wonder it was the weapon that got voted off the island.
I wouldn't be suprised if Reach has a buffed up pistol, the carbine is a starting weapon that you can choose, and the BR is relegated to a weapon you have to pick up.
tl;dr these people think the haloverse revolves around their pasty asses when it's Bungie's franchise and they can do whatever the fuck they want to do with it.

Time to beat according to his last email:
10:11:56
new Storm run bumps my time up to:
9:40:56
(yeah, shit you not, the same amount of seconds)
31:00 spread.
I can do this. Possibly only by re-running Crow's Nest, with Tsavo Highway and Cortana still to be re-done.
edit: yeah, I have more time from The Storm than I do The Ark right now. That's the difference snail crawling vs crouch walking makes.
Tsavo Highway was pretty sweet, can't wait for odst when we freak out over how many lives we have left when hunters show up
that was not tribal bush dance music

thanks for the help though guys, Rainman is a redonkulus achievement and whoever made it should be hurt
Imagine if there was an achievement for doing rainman on every map.

"Boo hoo, why no BR?"

Someone needs to track down the post where Viscount snapped his disc in half and post it in that thread.
