- "Natural satellites: [2] Csodaszarvas, Turul"
Turul (a falcon): ancient mythological bird in Hungarian origin myth: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turul
Csodaszarvas (MIraculous Hind): the legend of this magical white deer says, according to ancient Hungarian mythology, that she led brothers Hunor and Magor (->Magyar means Hungarian) to their first territory (Levedia but Magyars later moved on towards West, eventually reaching and settling in the Carpathian Basin) - along with the Turul myth it is the most principle part of Hungarian mythology.
- "Largest Cities: Manassas, Quezon, Ezhtergom"
Esztergom: ancient capital of Hungary ('til late 1200s) and still home of the reigning Archbishop of Hungary - WTF? :)
If you add that grunts were talking Hungarian in the ODST video it's definitely getting weird... :D
That's right, nothing at all.
I hate footages that not only don't qualify as a trailer, but not even as a teaser video.
Not that I'm extremely interested, Halo has been derivative crap from the start.

- the dude is being called Lieutenant. I thought none of the Spartans were supposed to be officers? Master Chief is the highest ranked he's only a Petty Officer.
- All the Spartans are supposed to be from the same group and know each other well.
- the armour/helmets look more like ODST armour than Spartan. Surely if these guys are Spartans they would be wearing the same armour as Master Chief?
Not that I really care, but Bungie have always been careful to keep their games/book canon consistent so maybe what's going on in this teaser isn't as obvious as first glance suggests.

So the Prequel is refering to things that will happen in the future now? ooookay. The Master Chef was hardly a lone wolf before Reach (usually working to other spartans), its only really the events of Halo that have seen him working alone.
Sure, its just Bungie hinting at more squad based gameplay, but it is still stupid.

And if so... does it really matter how many grunts I pistol-whip on the surface before that happens?
