I'm not a casual, so no.

By that I mean, I can check things out online myself, no need to get excited over a marketing campaign.

Halo 3's advertising was a bit over the top. I wouldn't be surprised though if bungie pulled some big add though.

Why would any one be excited for a advertising campaign? Thats just sad. Even worse than that, MS will spend more money on advertising(most likely)than the game cost to make.djsifer01

You think 14 million people care about advertising? LMAO 14 million people want to buy it already most likely without the advertising.

lol, I never thought about getting excited for a advertising campaign... I guess that I am interested in seeing what the ads are going to be like though. I found the older halo ads to be entertaining to watch.

In all honesty if you didn't enjoy the Halo 3 and ODST ads or at least appreciate the time and effort that went into them then there is something wrong with you.

Definitely, Halo trailers are usually pretty awesome. :) As in, probably the best around. Reach's have been a bit of a disappointment so far though, minus the VGA one.

Would you if it were Killzone 3? You wouldn't be interested in seeing CG trailers, or Live-Action trailers if they were to come around? Even if they were totally awesome?

Halo Live action trailers are nice, I like them, but I still wouldn't get excited for commercials, I usually get excited for new gameplay, that's just me.

Why are people bashing the TC? People here always get excited for new trailers.

I didn't like Halo 3's live action trailers but I liked ODSTs. I wouldn't say I'm excited but I will definitely check them out.

Maybe we'll get some Halo: Reach Mountain Dew. :lol:

There's already plenty of gameplay to be seen and had. Live Action trailers are just icing on the cake, and Halo's Live Action trailers have always been stellar.

I have seen tons of gameplay and played beta, I just don't like live action trailers, their not terrible but their solely for hype. I also don't like extended CGI hype trailers as well, such as anything by Square Enix, the game is your pride and joy so SHOW IT TO THE WORLD!

I'm not all too excited.

I'm just not into Halo as much as I used to be, granted even when I was I still didn't really care about the advertising campaigns.

Not as much as the actual game of course, but it will sure hype me up for some Halo. I wonder what Microsoft has in store this time.

On a side note - Anyone noticed how poor Halo reach looks compared to Gears 3, despite one ebing near release and the other having little under a year of development time left?

Exactly. Look "bphan" I'm glad you and your marketing firm discovered the "interweb" as a avenue for "consumer knowledge empowerment", but keep it in your pants' next time.

Why would I get excited over a commercial? Unless it's the super bowl maybe.
