Spot the TV spot: simultaneous Halo 3 commercial announced

Heeeello, Halo! In everyone’s fascination with video game TV spots, it’s beyond a doubt that pinning the words “Halo 3” and “TV Spot” will cause massive ripples, waves, and tsunamis far and wide. The recent announcement of a Halo 3 TV spot has sparked the crowd of Master Chiefaholics and all those pair of eyes are going to leave the computer screen for a chance to take a glimpse of 60 seconds of glory.

See that pic above you? Looks like something we’ve never seen before in our screenshot articles, but y’know what? The reason why it looks new is because it’s a still from the TV spot itself. The ad was created by advertising agency McCann Erickson and will give you the ultimate tease that reveals you the world of Halo 3.

Now, if you’re quite done gushing tears of Bungie joy, let’s post up the schedule for the simultaneous broadcast:

• North America: Dec. 4 – ESPN Monday Night Football
• Europe: Dec. 5 – Xbox.com, 2:15 a.m. GMT

For those in the UK not able to catch it on the 5th, it will air again on the 15th at Channel 4, 10:45 p.m. And for those who don’t have access to cable or are in other countries, the ad will be available for download exclusively on the Xbox Live Marketplace.

However, if you’re technologically/geographically incapacitated to watch the vid, don’t worry. We’re sure to have it up here as an embedded video soon enough. You do know, after all, how thousands of users upload all kinds of stuff in YouTube…
