Are we talking about the live action trailer? If so I am voting for Uncharted. Live action trailers have no place in the video game world, because well short and simple... its not in-game.

And don't go slamming me for being a fanboy, because I am not, I love the halo series so back off! I feel like the live action trailer was just to build hype and showed nothing about what the game had to offer.

they can't really be compared. One is more of a live action commercial and the other is a trailer with cutscene footage. If we talk about quality, the odst one wins.

The ODST is the most epic trailer since Gears of War; Uncharted 2's trailer is absolutely terrible.

The Halo trailer gave me more of an emotional response. It's raw, gritty and from a commerical standpoint, leaves a more lasting impression in my opinion. That being said, it always makes me think of a Halo movie more so than ODST. The Uncharted trailer doesn't have the same emotional message - but it does get me to thinking about the game itself.

It's a crapshoot for me.

Uncharted. This is gonna be a really good game. Seems like Naughty Dog is really enjoying the IP and they have plenty of improvements and additions to the sequel which is good because usually sequels don't do anything new besides content, and have barely any new game play additions or improvements. FPSs are notorious for this.

ODST's commercial craps on Uncharted 2. Sony needs to take a page from MS in how to advertise games, because sonys commercials looks pathetic in comparison to MS.

If you don't know what Halo's gameplay looks like by now then why are you even on a gaming forum? MS don't need to show you what Halo looks like :roll:

The live ODST's trailer makes Cookigaki wants to see a halo movie. Cookigaki likes odst trailer better...Uncharted 2 trailer had spoils..Cookigaki dislike spoils, Cookigaki means..why not just show gameplay trailers of uncharted 2? Why did they had to show cutscenes trailer?

This trailer gives incite on what ODSTs are all about -- hardened, serious, tough warriors -- Helljumpers which are first to hit the ground and lead the way.

Uncharted 2 trailer shows off it game, graphics etc where as ODST trailer shows nothing of the game which is pointless imo.Not saying its a bad trailer but u would expect a little of the game in the trailer.

Or a trailer based upon the sole intention to hype a product by showing something completely unrelated to the product other than brand.

I guess Sony should follow by advertising GOW with a 300 trailer because it shows hardened, serious, tough warriors of sparta.... but other than them being warriors of spartans its completely unrelated. Just like that trailer was to ODST

I never said the trailer wasn't meant for hype -- this is an incredibly well-done trailer. This trailer, and the three Halo 3 live action trailers were meant to create hype. However, those trailers also had a story to them which correlated to Halo 3. Those trailers were not *pointless*. This live-action trailer could not be the last, and thus could also tell of a side story point which might correlate to Halo 3: ODST. Again, saying this trailer has nothing to do with the game is a benighted look at it -- like I said before, it gives the person watching the trailer a little taste of what ODSTs are about.

I agree. I'm actually on Halo's side, but I have to say that if we were to compare a live action trailer to a gameplay trailer, there should be no result. Halo's live action video is really just a marketing move, which is successful in my opinion, since it actually made me want to but ODST. However, it shouldn't be counted as a game trailer.

They're both amazing. Uncharted 2's is like a movie trailer, while ODST is more atmospheric.

I've always loved 360's commercials more than PS3's, since I studied design/marketing while I was still in school. They put more thoughts into a commercials instead of just putting game pieces in your face, you can say it's just hype, but I think it's smart. It just catches more eyes, which helps in a business. 360 has better concepts when it comes to commercials, it's always quite innovative, and it always works. Maybe Sony should learn it, too, learn to find another way to market a game... a lot of their great games didn't sell as well as it should due to their bad marketing, which is really a shame.

Uncharted 2, because i could care less about a live action trailer based upon a video game. IMO making a live action trailer just cries for attention to make up for how horrible and bland the ODST game really is.

Take out the narration of a 300 trailer and erase prior knowledge of 300, you just get a trailer of men of sparta fighting (without narration and prior knowledge you can't know anything what the movie is going to be about). Know imagine that trailer with God of War put at the end of it. Wouldn't that bother you? That nothing ingame was shown, no characters from the game shown. Just Spartans fighting.

I love halo but I hate that trailer. I want a trailer woe me with gameplay or something in game atleast. I seen enough of Halo ODST to be a first day buy, but as a gamer this trailer was a slap in the face to me. If the game is so great show it off to me, not just give me this rubbish that makes me want to go watch a movie.

I've seen someone play the full game on justin TV. Its exactly the same as halo 3 except with less enemies and less encounters. You are also mindlessly walking around a pitch black city while final fantasy music is playing in the background....

Why in the world would a trailer bother me? I watch trailers for entertainment purposes -- I know what the game is going to look like, this isn't the first trailer that has been shown nor will it be the last. I do not see the big deal. So long as a trailer is well-done, and captured my imagination or immersed me into the tailer, or made me want more -- there's no reason to dislike it. This trailer did all of such, and made me crave a halo movie. Everything about that Halo trailer was top-notch. If you want to see a tailer with gameplay, go see the other trailers. There's plenty to choose from. :|

I'd have to go with ODST even though I'm not a Halo fan.
