Halo: The Fall of Reach Gets a SDCC Trailer

EB: A new trailer for Halo: The Fall of Reach has been released today, introducing the world to the impressive animation and setting of the series.

Set around the foundation of the SPARTAN-II program, The Fall of Reach will be a three act series will take place before and after the Covenant’s attack on humanity.

The short trailer does a good job of piquing the viewer’s interest. Where the series goes, however, has yet to be seen.

Nice. Looking forward to this.

4Sh0w3228d ago (Edited 3228d ago )

Yeah I always felt like Halo's animated work and the live action stuff always did a great job of pulling you deeper into the lore.

TheHaloGuy3228d ago

Except Nightfall. The Hunters worms twisting in the air? I hate it when canon is broken without a thought.

Summons753228d ago

Is this a game or a movie? Loved the book and hated how Bungie ruin it with Reach the game. Hope this is a movie since they are working hard on Halo 5

Cobberwebb3228d ago

Animated series based on the best Halo book. Looking forward to it.

Summons753228d ago

Wonderful. Hopefully (and I don't doubt it with how devoted 343 is to Halo) it will stick 100% to the book.

Lord_Ranos3228d ago

Exactly. Halo:Reach was nothing like The Fall of Reach book.

isa_scout3228d ago

The Fall of Reach is the best videogame novel I've read. If they stick to the book this series should be awesome. This has me really excited. Is Eric Nylund(author of the novel) involved with this in any capacity?

TheHaloGuy3228d ago

Don't know. Nylund is teh best

Jide3228d ago

Looking forward to this

How'd fallout not make the list. Atleast over cyberpunk, tales , and halo. Fallout been around since what 96 98 and has 5 6 games into it. It's full of lore when you play it. I'd even add star ocean to a point.

robtion498d ago

Agree Fallout should be on there.

MadLad498d ago

And somehow Planescape Torment doesn't even make the list.

Crows90498d ago

Hollow knight surpasses these.

shinoff2183498d ago

In lore? I must be missing something

Crows90498d ago (Edited 498d ago )

Yes in lore. Easily missed... absolutely. Never played a game that had me loving the world and lore behind it as much as that one. Most of course wouldn't be able to experience it since it is a more difficult game.

DarXyde498d ago

I can't speak for all titles on this list, but by the time you get to Dark Souls III, the lore is a bloody tapestry of intricacy

Crows90497d ago

Played them all. Im not saying the games on the list dont have good lore...I just think hollow knight had more lore that is hidden but present and more easily explored and accessed. The souls games have tremendous lore but theyre mostly hidden and stay that way unless you look for it and research it. The lore is not very accessible.

DarXyde497d ago

Crows90,

I think that's a somewhat fair assessment. For me, the Souls games are less upfront about the lore, but it does invite your fascination through NPCs, items, locations, bosses, etc. There's this kind of natural progression where the picture becomes just clear enough by doing the essential tasks, but it really makes you want to explore every inch of the world.

TheColbertinator498d ago

Suikoden and Legend of Heroes also have massive lore setups.

agent13497d ago

narration is more important than lore i'd rather watch the story and characters in a more cinematic way instead of searching for notes and stuff that's why i love sony exclusive games like uncharted and gow and hate from software games

shinoff2183497d ago

The article was top ten lore in video games. I think they did a bad job picking games out. I know what you mean though. I just like a variety of games and genres.

Awesome news - so can we look forward to playing Halo: Infinite with no online issues circa 2033?

just_looken583d ago

"You can download the improved Reach AI mod at Mod DB" This was a mod 343 did nothing so the online will be fixed in our dreams.

SullysCigar582d ago

Par for the course with 343.

Profchaos582d ago

They did say they had a 10 year plan for infinite we just all assumed it would be DLC could of been a 10 year netcode rollout.

But seriously this is a mod the community won't be able to modify infinite in the same way

Cikatriz_ESP583d ago

Combat Evolved was the best campaign, and it's not even close.

just_looken583d ago

You should have tried this version of reach when it first came out remastered for a year there was no sound because 343 could not locate the sound files.

It was a special challenge.

badz149583d ago

more like the bunch at 343i are simply mentally challenged

ACEMANWISE583d ago

Well I guess 12 years is faster than most fixes. I guess this is a cheap way to "remaster" something nowadays.....by just fixing something that used to always be broken.

zidane1341582d ago

Did you even read the article? This is a mod to improve AI from back almost 2 gens ago. Nobody is claiming this is remastering anything. Yeesh.

Crows90582d ago

Halo is dead. Microsoft has other shooter franchises it cares more about now. 343 are no longer Xbox golden studio. They are likely to shift things around or even close it all together and give the IP to someone else.

343i decided to pummel the IP into the ground...and when they see it didn't quite look like Glenn's face they decided to just keep on pummeling. Not sure if Glenn is the IP or the fanbase in this case though.

Profchaos582d ago

343 were never the golden studio they were a hastily thrown together b team when bungie said we want to do something else cya

Crows90582d ago

Well ...I didn't want to say it but I agree. Makes you wonder why Microsoft gave them the IP and didn't keep Bungie or any of the talent they acquired from any studio.

CobraKai582d ago

“ Halo Infinite, Halo 3, or Halo: Combat Evolved. It’s hard to say which of the sci-fi FPS games offers the best experience all round.”
He lost me with Halo Infinite.
