As seen on www.evilavitar.com (but originally from bungie.net)
This appears to be an 800 x 600 pixel fully anti-aliased shot. (There's no shield energy bar, so we know it's not in-game. )
It looks like Halo 2 is going for a more realistic look, with muted colors, and an emphasis on surface textures.
I don't know if I like the new extra-shiny armor look.
Also, it looks like he's floating over the floor. I see a mild shadow from his leg, but it's too light to visually anchor him to the ground.
I would like to see this scene in motion. I want to see how the lighting works when the Chief and the camera are moving.
