Halo 3
News|Previews|Screens

Believe. Hollywood creature design hero Stan Winston pulled out all the stops to create this massive scale model of the epochal battle that ends the Halo trilogy. The level of expressive detail is truly stunning, a moment of terror and desperation frozen in time. The closing moments, which contain the only bit of movement in the entire trailer, evoke the French art house classic La Jetee (upon which the film 12 Monkeys was based.) On the eve of the biggest game launch in history, the aesthetic of "less is more" serves the Chief well. Check back often for our ongoing Halo 3 coverage, including our review which goes up at noon on Sunday.
