1:38 “When you first saw Halo, were you blinded by its majesty?”
Well yeah! Everything was black.
🤣
"blinded?"
Yeah Literally Blinded
The Arbiter has cataracts.
Halo 2 Anniversery Remastered if EA did it.
Bethesda*
EA is a publisher nowadays, same with Bethesda
Ubisoft in the AC Unity era.*
@@A-G-F- Bethesda is also a pathetic studio still.
You have to buy the graphics before you can see them...
Looks like a fanmade SFM movie
More like Hunt the Freeman's SFM cutscenes. xd
Hunt Down the Freeman's cutscenes were the only good part about it.
@Autismo Dogshit is an improvement over dogshit mixed with spoiled milk and rotten eggs.
So the cutscenes were still the best part.
Bruh Momentum True
Has nobody else noticed that at 2:34 Regret looked like he had just had a Vietnam flash back for a few seconds
Regret: The Council demands it!
Regrets mind: The prophecy is true...
He did
Dude, I'm too distracted by truth's floating eyeballs!
His PTSD is kicking in
I can really tell how stylistically the changes in Blur Studio's cutscenes are. I really wish we got to have a Halo 3 anniversary just to have more Blur cutscenes
The fans messed that up. I think it’s nonsense to stop at 2. It’s a trilogy. 3 would’ve been their last one. I love the halo community but I can’t forgive them for robbing me of what I’ve been waiting for since CEA
@@richardbarrett4488 How was it the fans? The Xbox can't render Halo 3 twice like it could for the first 2. It can barely keep Halo 3 at 60 fps on its own. There's no way they could have made it happen regardless of what the fans did
Gumfireparalax now that I have all the info I take it back. All I seen was people complaining they don’t need H3A. I just want my blur cutscenes dammit!
@@richardbarrett4488 It theoretically could be done on PC MCC, but I doubt they'll do that. If we get the mod support tools they teased, fans could do it themselves.
@@gumfireparalax1371 They Fixed the 60fps issue on Halo 3 already with their new update.
34:14 Cortana: what... Is that?
Absolutely nothing: I am the monument to all of your sins

I'm 340th like. We just need 3 more! Wooh!

Why tf was it still terrifying, only in a more mental sense. I got spooked at the graveminds body, but hearing it speak without seeing it was strangely unnerving.
Joseph Jurado “He *is* there, but where..?”
4:00 Imagine opening the wrong door and having everyone get sucked into space.
I almost spit out my drink reading this comment
@@alivedinosaur Glad to hear it lol
"So smile would ya....while we still got something to smile about...."
ye Johnson, 1 second later you really dont have much to smile about when getting sucked into space.....
Chief would be allright though....maybe even have a good laugh
Correction sir, that's "blown out".
Balnazzardi chief would be like “that tickled”
3:50 Imagine being the Covenant and seeing this in the dark.
*DEMON!*
Tell that to the covenant.
This is what the grunts see when fighting against Spartans
What grunts have nightmares of
lmoa
Once H2A arrives on PC, we’ll be able to completely remaster the cutscenes with the remake’s graphics
12th may !!!
It's here
Here you are.
@Iderus Naimmee unfortunately, that is impossible. It would be cool, though.
@@capnkaba reshade homie,reshade. It doesnt replace the models,but it does put in effects similar to the cutscenes
Those two floating SMG’s shooting at the Arbiter without Miranda had me dying.
I lot of this looks like it was supposed to go into Vegetales.
I feel bad for Tartarus at 40:44 - 41:00
When I look at him, I see a lonely Brute. His sniff at 40:54 is actually because he's been crying, somebody give Tartarus a girlfriend.
Tartarus is bully
Give me a girlfriend. I haven't betrayed anyone!
RZI Productions i think its because he smells to check if there are any more humans left
That’s probably why he kidnapped Miranda
You could've modded Halo 2 Vista
You could've waited for MCC to come out on PC
You could've posted this 9 days ago
*_H E R E T I C_*
For some reason the white tentacles make the gravemind cutscene seem.... more sensual
Oh no...
Well....Now I know what LNG is into.
:/
Hello there Kenobi.
The flood just wants kisses
Certified bruh moment
2:18 Chief is spying on them
37:50 god I often forget just how FLAWLESS Michael Wincott's delivery is. He portrays a calm and reassuring prophet who knows best, and even at the brink of collapse he's still believable. There's a 'shiftiness' in his tone that is ever so subtle and isn't apparent immediately. I've beaten the game numerous times, I know what he's about, and he's an awful tyrant and manipulator, but I still get hung up at times by how trustworthy he sounds.
Simply outstanding voice work.
That's probably why it was so surprising when Tartarus tells you that he gave the order. Most people assume that Tartarus and the brutes had done it on their own.
@@Steve-dm3qx The problem I have is how quickly and unrealistically it happened.
Definitely. It really disappoints me he didn't reprise the role in Halo 3. The voice-actor for Truth in Halo 3 just didn't match up.
@@Mega-Brick There was more wrong with him than just the change of actor, but at least then it would be a minor story nitpick and not a major flaw.
I agree. Very upset he didn't stay on for 3

Best quote ever
When?
Halo mannen oh, its at the start. Just listen for it
Holding back tears
Short life, but fuck it it's worth it.
@@somethingfoxstudios4332 thank you
13:46
Ah yes, My favorite part of Halo 2's campaign was the cutscene where the giant gray mass consumes the entirety of new Mombasa.
LOL Is that master chief just chilling in the background at 2:18
Mogabi Origami Yes. The Master Chief’s character model is present in the cutscene and in-game
Funny how I found that out just the other day.
He’s in every single cutscene in the game, just hidden in random spots.
It's Spartan Grace's spirit. Spartans never die 😉
Buh.
21:44-21:59 Now this is the best remastered classic moment.
12:07 the game just outed that you played on easy lol
How the cutscene?
What difficulty does Johnson say "the master chief will jump in this tank, role across the bridge, and blow up any inhuman son of a bitch dumb enough to get between him, and the profit of regret"?
@@pawnix4122 Normal. Heroic is the sticks and a rock line, and Legendary is the HE spewing divine intervention one.
I play on easy difficulty 🤷🏼♂️
@@gimmeallurmoney3883 I normally play halo on normal but I never really enjoyed 2 on other difficultys other than normal.
a lot of these scenes, particularly the ones on high charity where it shows a lot of silhouettes, look like some sort of halo-themed hipster modern art film i love it
27:29 - Talking to an empty chair lol
Looks like Rtas is hearing voices
I remember the original Halo 2 cutscenes with reverence, it was as if it was shot like a high quality movie as if a film director set up each frame to tell it's own story. Even with the dated graphics, I still feel the way it is shot, the voice acting and the writing are on par and in some cases surpass current games and even some movies. You can tell that even though the game had a rushed development, Bungie put a lot of love into expanding the universe and give a perspective from the other side. It will always be my favourite Halo story.
I love Blur's work as much as the next person, but I'm always going to be more impressed with in-engine cutscenes and cinematics. I think it just flows into the gameplay much better and it's far less jarring. Plus, Halo 2 is still a pretty good looking game.
Plus there aren't missing assets if they used in-game cutscenes.
I love how much effort they put into the cinematics. Some of the transitions and composition is just wonderful. In particular that courtroom scene. Aged graphics aside, it is absolutely gorgeous
Rather have the cinematic it just boosts and enhances the story telling even more
@@Hakuru15 no, it doesn't at all. It takes you completely out of your own shoes.
@@hellcatdave1 I myself have to agree. Pre-rendered stuff is cool and all, but when it looks far different than the game you play, your brain kinda feels disconnected from it all. As honestly great the Arbiter looks in all that pre-rendered glory, and that fight between Johnson and Arbiter for the index was probably the most badass scene to watch, and almost makes me want a whole movie made like that, it would have been nice to see what they could do if they would have just kept to the in-engine cutscenes Halo 2 did, but of course made to look better due to the newer technology we have now. I mean look at Halo 3, 4, and 5. They all did that. It just helps everything feel more as if it is one piece rather than separate parts. Hopefully Halo 6 can be a return to form for the Halo series. I feel that 343 can do it if they take their time to care about their community that they have taken responsibility of upholding since bungie left. It seems like they're taking steps in the right direction, and hopefully that comes through in the next game. Time will only tell. At least they're backed by a not so EA company who as of late, has been doing some relatively good things for devs and consumers lately.
“It’s so new, unfinished”
I can’t help but notice around 27:00 that there’s a high charity in the background....while in the high charity...
47:09 I think I'm starting to see why they remade the cinematics
Well, in CE they redid the animations, but yeah I hear you.
Lmao
Looks like mass effect andromeda
Ew Miranda
With a dedicated team to animate the models properly and some motion capture.
It would look absolutely better.
Damn truth, you lose some weight?
Sergeant Serendipity 117% weight loss.
His body left the game
5:25 LORD HOOD IS A GHOST
I’ll tell my grandkids about you someday, specifically this video
3:59 Lol why is there another Master Chief's helmet on the left?
I remember watching the Halo 2 cinematics for the first time way back and just falling in love with the cinematography. I'd love to see this mod really improve and capture what Bungie intended. Imagine if it was mocaped. Awesome. Thanks for sharing.
2:18 Didn't know chief was hiding in high charity
3:43 I really like the fact you can only see Chief’s visor in this scene, it feels like a big reveal when you realize it’s the Chief.
Man Chief's visor in H2A looks GOOOOD.
32:46 epic fight with a hug in the end lol
The bomb scene is still awesome despite nearly everything being black.
42:47 Is noone talking about the fact that there's two Anodyne Spirits
I like how some sounds are classic sounds while others are remastered. Very trippy
4:07 welp, they're all dead
Except Chief, he's good
4:00 you just see truth giggling behind the corner with a bucket of paint and the acutal airlock sign
11:39 When the scarab blew right through you popping an eye out
48:08 quick nerd explanaiton: If you're wondering why this cutscene is set in the area where the last mission takes place instead of high charity, it's because this cutscene is loaded in the mission great journey, and, since there are no models of the inside of high charity, aside from some assets such as the doors and the boxes, we are seeing the skybox from the level this cutscene is loaded in
Yeah it's off to the left of main island in the distance, you can actually see the large purple light things sitting there beforehand.
Huh. In this, in-game h2a Cortana doesn't look all that puffy like she is during gameplay.
No she still looks pretty puffy
22:31 "I'm good". Yeah.... this is definitely how I sit in the drop pod.
2:39 Truth was a pair of floating eyeballs all along.
2:30 Truth looks like a googly-eyed Inkling
I'm so glad you're back dude. That was the longest week off ever
It is so interesting to see what assets they used in the old cutscenes from the campaign which were retextured in the anniversary.
Thanks for uploading :)
38:22 Ok, so it wasn't just my faulty memory. The grunt really does just slide away in terror.
Such dramatic lighting! BRAVO!!!!! A CINEMATIC MASTERPIECE!!!!!
10:49 the amazing driverless warthogs can now drive on water
“When you first saw halo, were you blinded by its majesty?”
‘Sees black screen’
Yh I guess he was.
34:35 So nobody is going to mention the fact that gravemind has arby and chief hostage inside of high charity?
I love how good the Chief model looks. I wish they used this art style in 5
When the textures actually load these look pretty good and what I actually wanted from Halo 2 Anniversary.
I have always wondered what the cinematic's looked like, thanks for delivery quality content!
4:09 and there they go walking into space
The elites look stunning.
Even after almost 10 years they look best in H2A
I think the implementation of Blur AND ingame cutscenes would’ve been nice, maybe an option you could check, and it would offer a little more replayability.
I love blur but I always wanted see how the cutscenee would have looked in game.. now I'm just kinda dissapointed at what we missed out. But now we have around a whole minute of beautiful remastered halo 2 thanks to game cheat
I cant believe hes back. Like 2 videos. Toast is happy
For everytime you kick my ass in Halo while I'm on your team I'll give you one slice of pizza
with all the teamkilling he does this should be easy
@@blackdimund1920 I've seen it first hand
the profit of mercy's death cutscene actually looks better
The covenant wasn’t paying the electric bill, so high charity’s power was cut off
If it was never announced that blur was doing the cutscenes for halo2 Anniversary back then this is how I would imagine H2A to be like, a remaster with nice graphics but keeps the in game cutscene style.
next time someone wants to watch a movie im playing this
23:41
Cortana: Hang On To Your Helmet
I don’t think that’s a problem
37:46 looks like a Seagull made it's way from New Mombasa and onto High Charity
The Blur stuff is cool and I loved seeing it my first time playing the remaster campaign but I prefer this and would rather see these scenes in their place now. It mixes the original animation and direction with the newer assets(if they exist) so well.
fuck yes! What blur did was cool but I like the original shot compositions, etc.
They should have keep the scripted cinematics with anniversary makeover
WonderMePartyStrip j agree. But I think “a day at the beach” needs it’s remastered cutscene.
Nah I think the camera angles and cinematography in the remastered cutscenes are LOADS better than the classic.
@@The4j1123 They are
Commanderfox945 it already has been look it up
Commanderfox945 That cutscene already has a remastered version.
2:52 this actually shows the elite that his face is in pitch blackness that would make it a mystery comic book of what he’s face lies behind the mask and his face
MCC PC better have the ability to see all 3 cutscenes in Halo 2!
Original
Original Remastered
CGI
If 343 doesn’t do this then the community will!!!
Thank you Gamecheat for uploading this I’ve always wanted to see the cutscenes like this!
It alternates between looking good and dark/empty
MMC on PC with mod support and these ingame cutscenes fixed up to work would be awesome
Yeah, just revamp the models that only shows up in the cutscenes and its all good
Holy shit, it’s been way too long since I’ve seen a video of yours.
Edit: I played with gamecheat13 on halo 5 with my friend once. He joined the party, and after looking for a mic he talked with us two 13 year olds. It happened at least a few years ago and my friend and I still talk about it. We treat him like a celebrity, and basically, we’re cool because of it
He's just that much of a badass
Awwww, that's actually really cute T^T so happy that you got to fanboy hard when he joined your party
The thumbnail was all it took to get me to start watching it
This is sick! Honestly the scenes that were textured etc. made for some really cool desktop wallpapers!!!
So my understanding of this is that the original game files for cutscenes are replaced with the remastered ones, so when things are missing (like High Charity in the first cutscene) it's because there is no remastered version of it.
I honestly wish they remade the original cutscenes with the remastered graphics cause the movement was believable too back in the OG Xbox
Like with CEA’s cutscenes
I wish there was an option to see the cutscenes like this. Maybe 343 can fix the missing parts 🤷🏻♂️
It would take a very long time to remake all those assets for the cutscenes. It would be like making another 1/3 to 1/2 a game worth of assets, just for the cutscenes.
They broke the "missing parts" intentionally for performance reasons. These cinematics are playing in the background while you watch Blur's version, basically there's a video player glued to the camera (in front of the original cutscenes).
343 didnt work on this it was Saber
@@solaris5303 This is what I was looking for. Now it makes sense what I'm looking at.
Halo 2 Anniversery Remastered if it were release on the 360
You know, a part of me wishes they modeled all the extra stuff for the Halo 2 cutscenes and included an option to play the game with the original cutscenes in the anniversary graphics.granted, I'm just a guy who loves options but I feel like that would have been a nice choice.
I get a yakuza kiwami feeling with these. You know, having much higher models, textures and lighting but keeping the same old ass animation. Only making the animations look more rough
These graphics are so good, I was blinded by its majesty.
"Don't forget to subscribe so I can eat pizza for the rest of my God damn life."
Same bro, same. You have my sub
I get this weird feeling that 343 was in the process of remastering the cutscenes in game graphics but just decided to go prerendered instead
Most likely
That little bit with the scarab at 11:18 looks really good
Man I am glad I subscribed the other day, now I get to see this masterpiece the day it came out :D
I find it interesting how many cut scenes took place in the same world space. For example, watching the arbiter be marked, you can see human ships in the background and I think that's earth too? Or the Arbiter scenes taking place on the gas giant.
Master cheif casually walks through a marines legs not strange at all
These are already way better than the pre-rendered cutscenes ingame!
Evil empty talking alien chairs.....we meet again....
Oh thank you. I've been looking everywhere for this kind of video
"Don't forget to subscribe so I can eat pizza for the rest of my goddamn life" You got yourself another subscriber!
i never liked the way they redesigned miranda, thought it was done by Blur but it seems like they were following Saber interactive's art direction after all
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
What?
@@crashbash8549 yeah

Featuring Gravemind as "Sir does not appear in this movie".
M8, the amount of effort put into this leaves me without words, I hope 343i finds this and gives you a super helmet or something because you have earned it. Remember when people had to earn "Reconz"? That should be a thing for ever.
