This the the unreleased Full Version of the live action trailer Birth of A Spartan.  The trailer shows Carter, the leader of Noble Team, being created into a Spartan.  This new version is fantastic.

That was really awesome.

EDIT: Nevermind you fixed it.

You know, they usually put people to sleep before drilling 20 things into the human body and let them tear in blue liquid, other than that, cool.

how did i know you would find something negative to say about this trailer.......

Amazing trailer, even better than the short versions! :)

I like to critique stuff, doesn't mean I find it bad, the trailer is cool lol.

Halo trailers are the best in the gaming industry.

I was thinking the same thing, I have to admit.  When you can fly FTL to other stars anaesthetic and less dramatic needles poking into your skin seem reasonable to assume.

Pretty cool trailer, but that bit me me think of the transformation scene in Quake 4 more than Halo.

I would have to agree. I wish they would make the movie already.

read the books. Spartans are always awake through augmentation.  Always. For multiple reasons.

1st.  Money.  Spartan 3's like Carter shown in this trailer were designed to be built as best as possible for as cheap as possible.  Anesthesia is expensive in the modern world and probably would be in the future as well.

2nd.  Time.  When someone is put to sleep for a surgery it ususally requires a long recovery time from the drugs.  The person is drowsy and not sure of their surroundings and take a while to be ready to move on to whatever is next.  Spartans have no time for such things.

3rd.  Mental fortitude.  The fact is that what the UNSC did to these young Spartans by todays standards would be war crimes and a crime against humanity.  While the UNSC is "the good guys" because they are our planetary protection from the covenant the Spartan process was brutal.  These children were taken away from their parents at the ages of 5-7 and forced against their will to train like animals.  Once they hit the actual augmentation process well over half would end up dead or with injuries that would make them paralyzed for life.  Very very brutal and being awake through these processes would reming the Spartans of the sacrifice they were making for their planet and the strength it takes to be a true Spartan.
