Stunning sneak peek into 343 Guilty Spark

First shown to the attendees of the Halo Universe panel at San Diego Comic-Con last weekend, 343 Industries and Halo Waypoint have uploaded the HD teaser trailer for the new terminals feature in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary. Introduced in Halo 3, these new terminals will delve deeper into the Halo lore, and even hint at the direction of the next Halo trilogy.

Halo Waypoint have also released recordings of the full Halo Universe panel, which you may watch here. The panel of speakers also revealed that each level of the campaign will contain a terminal. Between Forerunner, Human and Covenant levels, you may not always have the same narrator, or even the same physical form of terminal.

Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary is due to be released on November 15th, 2011 - exactly ten years since the launch of the original Halo: Combat Evolved.

343 Industries also released campaign demo footage of The Silent Cartographer level last weekend.

Halo cinematics are always first class. This one is no different. But the voice of the Guilty Spark sounds a little different?

Yeah, a little bit. But if I remember correctly, the Halo Universe Comic-Con panel said that they got the same voice actor back

That was a pretty cool trailer, looking forward to playing the first as i was a sony fanboy back in the day and never touched the xbox. Still loving the idea of the whole graphic switching with a press of the button, and co-op? This will be aweshoom!

Weak trailer--fairly boring at best.

Probably the terminals will say something stupid when you read the seventh word of the seventh paragraph on the seventh page of each one in turn and it'll bring you to the "i love bees" webpage and you'll go into a pointless ARG instead of getting any meaty knowledge.

Cant wait for this game and Halo 4, the build up for all the other Halo games is always good, interesting to see how 343 are going to build up to this, as this is their first Halo.

@OP
IanHealy is right it's still done by Tim Dadabo, as with all voice actors their voices change, just look at early family guy, Peter and Chris sound quite different. Chris been very different, can't wait for this to come out, never got to play the first one only MP, and I was playing with one other person.

My favorite Halo game by a long shot, I got it the day the Xbox launched and I spent an entire summer playing in system link with my friends. I hope this game isn't sold at 60$, as much as I love it, with all the great games that are coming out, I don't think I would pick this up at this price.

I think the suggested price is $40, and I wouldn't be surprised if the bigger retailers sold it for a little less

The Halo franchise is my favourite of all time- and this is why. I love exploring the halo universe in-game, and I loved how bungie made that possible with terminals. I am just glad 343 is going to continue the tradition.

I used 2 preorder credits I had with Amazon so I'm getting it for $5 on release day. Looks like a great remake!!

The voice is the same. It sounds more like they did not use exactly the same effects on it.

I agree with some earlier comments, that sounds like a different voice actor for 343, even though they say that it is the same guy. Maybe since it has been a couple of years since Halo 3 his voice just naturally changed or something.
Anywho, looking forward to them adding terminals to the game!

You just know this will expand on the lore (and also probably be an achievement!)

I'm 10 points away from getting the Level 50 Halo Waypoint Avatar Helmet and this game will be my saving grace without having to buy DLC for Halo Wars.

That game brings back some old school memories from when I 1st got the old xbox bundle I had. Think if they make BLACK in a revamped Arcade game I would be very happy cause that was my 1st proper FPS that I liked when I comes to Military Games,Halo was different it was ground brecking at the time the same with BLACK. Good game good memories lol
