What do you guys think of these? I’m a little skeptical. (read the descriptions and it’s outlined why I’m not sure.)
The most interesting thing I gather from these is at the end of the first video. It not only says “Xbox” when the logo does it’s “swoosh” but also has the Windows 10 logo. Anyways, what are your thoughts? I just had a pretty cool discussion on Reddit about them, so I figured I’d bring the party here too.
Huh.
Well I’m not buying the first video…like, at all.
Someone knowledgeable with computer animation would easily be able to create that transition.
Throw it together with the ready made fan logo, add a couple of after effects, and edit it together with the Xbox ‘swoosh’ that could have been ripped form literally any Xbox One/Windows 10 Trailer, and you have an entry level fan-teaser.
The second video is…definitely more interesting, I haven’t heard that Gravemind Quote for example, but that doesn’t necessarily speak towards its legitimacy.
So I see an Asteroid being pushed towards a damaged Halo Ring…okay. The engines appear to be human in design? But why would the UNSC bother transporting an asteroid, it doesn’t make much sense. Is this a new story segment between Halo 2 and 3, if so with what relevance, the ring shown is neither Installation 04 nor 05, nor is it the Ark, so I question its relevance to Halo 3.
Is it Installation 07? I mean an Installation large enough to encompass an entire sun would have to be one of the original 12, and 07 is the only one surviving.
So this must relate to the terminals, which is an odd thing to tease Halo 3 with, no? Then there’s the flash of, what I can only assume is supposed to be the Didact and, just…
I don’t know, effort was clearly put into the second video at least, but I’m not sold.

My thoughts too, especially in regards to the 2nd one. The only thing that gives the first one even a smidgen of legitimacy is the (lattice?) of swirls at the beginning and the way all those particles form “believe”. Not sure if there’s a plugin for that or something, but that’s what does it for me.
