Transcript of dialogue from E3 2003 Halo 2 Trailer for those that can't get the video just now (school/work firewall etc)

[screen opens with a huge city, rising into the clouds]

NEW MOMBASA, EAST AFRICAN PROTECTORATE

Cortana: ...it took two in the nose, then dropped into the atmosphere.

Master Chief: Who was first contact?

Sarge: 405th, out of Diego Garcia... but don't expect a big welcome. Covenant wiped most of 'em out before they hit the ground.

[pelican banks for a landing]

Spotter on ground: [garbled] 3-Kilo-2-3 is hot. Recommend mission abort.

Pilot: [over radio] Roger, recon. [to Sarge] It's your call, Sergeant.

Sarge: We're goin' in. GET TACTICAL, MARINES!

Cortana: Covenant ground forces own this city. We'll need to deal with them before we can kill that cruiser.

[pelican flies in through plasma flak, lands on roof pad]

Sarge: Pile out. GO GO GO!

[marines and MC jump out of the pelican, head down off the roof]

Sarge: [over radio] I'll evac the wounded. Keep me posted, Cortana.

Cortana: [over radio] Of course, Sergeant.

Perez: Sir - Corporal Perez, A Company. CP's this way.

[leads MC down the ramp]

Marine helping wounded marine: Must be seein' things...

Wounded marine: That's the [garbled] dude [fades out]

[MC passes a medic pumping on the chest of a wounded man on a cot - blood everywhere]

Medic 1: Come on! Come on!

[MC passes a makeshift hospital tent]

Medic 2: Stick with me, marine!

Medic 3: No tags!

medic 2: Hang two units, O-neg. And he needs an airway.

[MC crosses road, comes to another cot]

Medic 4: [looking at watch] I'm calling it. It's 19:00.

Perez: [explaining to MC] The lieutenant got hit as soon as we dropped in.

Cortana: Who's in charge now, corporal?

Perez: Sergeant Banks, ma'am. He's pinned down out front. C'mon, I'll show you.

[through a building, up some stairs]

Marine: No, no, behind that ST!

Marine 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah! [shooting stationary machine gun]

Marine: 3 more, coming left!

Marine 3: I'm runnin' low, man!

[Perez and MC stop just inside a doorway]

Perez: Oye - Carsons!

Carsons: Yeah?

Perez: Is it clear?

[huge explosion outside doorway]

Carsons: You tell me!

Perez: [too low to hear, mumbled to MC] [shouted] Friendlies - movin out! Covering fire!

[MC moves out, along the building side, shooting as he goes.]

[MC comes upon Sergeant Banks]

Banks: I asked for reinforcements... I didn't think they'd send a Spartan.

[MC looks up at a covenant heavy artillery piece]

Banks: We gotta take that thing out... cover me! [into radio] TAC HQ - this is Sergeant Banks [garbled] 200 meters north [garbled] over...

Sarge: I smell a fight...

Banks: Dammit, HQ - is anybody on this freq?

Easley: [over radio] Sergeant - this is Major Easley. Hang tight - we're inbound.

[Two longswords fly overhead, drop bombs on the artillery piece, blowing it to smithereens]

Easley: Verify delivery of coordinates - on target.

Banks: Head on, Major - target [garbled]

[banks hands his SMG to MC]

Banks: Take my weapon. You'll need it.

[MC heads down to the street, firing two SMGs at once]

Radioed message: [garbled] clear! Clear out!

[MC looks down on phalanx of jackals, advancing up the street]

[Two warthogs pull up in front of them]

Marine driver: I could use a gunner, sir!

Over radio: [garbled] we've got your back.

[MC gets into back of hog with rocket launcher attached, blows the hell out of a wraith - remodeled - with half-a-dozen shots]

Marine driver: That's the way, yeah!

[follows suit on a pair of wraiths]

Marine driver: Siddown, ya chump!

[hog runs over some fleeing covenant]

Passenger marine: That better buff out!

Marine driver: Ghosts! Making a break for it! We got 'em!

Passenger marine: You wanna let me drive?

Marine driver: You keeping score? [after MC takes out another dropship]

Passenger marine: C'mon, let's move! C'mon, who's my boy?

[huge flying cov craft passes overhead]

Cortana: A Phantom!

[during the ensuing chase]

Cortana: Brutes!

[brute leaps on the hog in front of the one MC's in... then another leaps on MC's hog]

Cortana: Look out!

[brute throws the driver out, then knocks MC off the back]

[MC shoots brute a few times, then melees it twice, killing it. Turns on another pair... blows up a car next to one in order to kill it, shoots the other with battle rifle]

Cortana: Ghosts - to your right!

[First one flies by in a hail of bullets from MC, second is heading straight for him]

Cortana: Wait for it... nice! [as MC leaps up and mounts the moving ghost]

[MC climbs up hood, then throws a flying dropkick at the brute in the driver's seat, knocking him out]

Cortana: The marines won't stand a chance, if those Phantoms double back! See if you can draw them off.

[MC leads two phantoms and three ghosts on a chase down a deserted highway. Phantom one kills itself by shooting through a billboard which falls on it. MC heads into a stretch with an 'Access Denied' sign above it.]

Cortana: Chief...

Master Chief: Hang on!

[MC slides through a closing gate, coming off the ghost and sliding, sparks flying , down the highway. Brute behind him sees the closed gate too late, and explodes. MC shakes himself off, and gets up.]

Cortana: Bingo. There's the cruiser. Now: All we need to do is... [trails off]

[individual pods are falling into the city, embedding themselves in the ground. 7 land right next to MC. The closest pops open, revealing special-ops Elites. They circle MC, activating light swords and growling. MC holds up his two SMGs... then puts one down and grabs a plasma grenade.]

Cortana: Betcha can't stick it...

Master Chief: You're on. [charges into battle]

[Fade to black]

The 8-minute video is incredible. All in-game footage, started downloading about an hour and a half ago...

The interaction between the marines is fabulous, along with the interaction of AI/vehicles :omg:.

IGN Insider is very nice (Y)
