Apologies to everyone if someone already did this earlier in the week, but I found these links on Ebay that are to actual in game footage of Halo 2 from E3, the stuff you have to pay for on Gamespot Complete.

http://math-test.mat.jhu.edu/public/ halo2xpctr1_qt.mov 30mb movie version
http://math-test.mat.jhu.edu/public/ halo2demo_051203_320.mov 80mb movie version
http://math-test.mat.jhu.edu/public/halo2xpctr1_qt.mov 115mb movie version

Needless to say only those with patience or Broadband will want to go for the 115mb version.

Trailer is 8 mins long, and takes place in New Mombasa during a Covenant assault.

Use something like Download Acelarator Plus, that way you simply paste the link in and it will download the movie, if you want it I could sned you it over msn. Doubt it but if you do my email is [email protected] No-one send me a virus.

It's a quicktime movie, you'll get nothing on screen until it's fully downloaded unless you use a download type program.

If anyone has a problem go to the page they were on - and no, it's not my auction, the guy is stupid to believe anyone will pay! - and right click the links, do save target as, and watch it download.

It's well worth the wait, you see two new weapons in action, a new Warthog, the new covenant phantom, and of course the first level set on Earth, which, just from this clip it looks like the old Halo magic is all set to be restarted in Halo 2.

i have download accelerator plus. it's easy to find. i don't have broadband yet. not for a few days, cause of a incompitent BT woman. so how long would it take me to download the trailer on a 56k?

30mb's on 56KB/s...

I would say around 5 hours but thats the lowest quality one.
