Halo 3 commercial
I watched some random videos over at GameTrailer this morning, among others these two Halo commercials, I think they deserve a post here on the blog simply because they’re really cool! Made by Neill Blomkamp, who’s also the man behind that sweet Citroen commercial among other things.
If you haven’t seen them, you really should you know click the read more-link and get to it!
here is the first one
and here is the second
You gotta admit that’s pretty cool? wish the game in question had this gritty, more realistic style! I especially love how the computer interface graphics looks like somewhat contemporary technology and not like something from Star Wars.

Uh.. the computer interface doesn’t look like something contemporary.. it looks like its out of the 70s.. Green text on black background!?

Booth Babes win though.. who were those foxy things in the half-body-paint and cloaks? Looked kinda.. interesting!
I’m dissappointed in the AoC-babes though.. they looked like school girls in fuskpäls and with plastic swords, not barbarian women at all!
And the car-washers.. hee hee, they didn’t seem all too happy about their jobs!

Awesome clips!
Arms Race has been on Xbox LIVE Video Marketplace for some time though. The other one was completely new to me and absolutely awesome!
The booth babes are of course fuckin’ sweet too!
Thanks for all this goodness mr T!

How about Killzone 2 then? The gritty somewhat realistic look is kind of it’s trademark. =)
And yeah. The trailers are awesome and actually makes me wanna play Halo 3!
Henke writes
My pleasure!
And about the green text which Hatter thought looked like it came from the 70s: I’ll assume that the text is printing on some monitor in the arms factory, and for the purpose that monitor fills they probably don’t need any more complicated visuals than that.

a question arises, are any more complicated visuals needed for using the interwebs?

Yes, if you can’t display pictures, you don’t have the true power of internet.
Porn thumbs.

The Mad Hatter writes
Well, I think you did a fairly good Xorvar up there.
But that’s not porn unless you’re into aliens.
