Sprint Samsung Epic 4G TV Commercial

[doober187]

@XSomeLoser @TyrantKaiser Sorry it took this long to respond, I know you care.... Actually, I DO know all that, but that's beside the point, because I was kidding(though I realize that's not really evident). Not only is that not a Seraph, they've never been drivable, and aren't drivable in any Halo game, including Reach. Neither of these are vehicles in Halo. The fact of the matter is, that's NOT a Spartan, it's NOT Halo, NO WAY, NO HOW. It's NOT. It's straight Halo rip-off. Period.End of story.

[Annihilator27]

338 Covenant disliked this video.

[lhilkid]

@Annihilator27 more like spartans.

[ColdSpark824]

Actually if you pause when hes driving, you'll note the CQB knife on left side of his chest. The mouthpiece is the only difference, pretty much.

[JonnyMonster91]

Wow.

Microsoft should be all over this. It would help hype up Reach and make them some good money by easily winning the suit.

But seriously, Samsung took the hard work of the character designers at Bungie and Microsoft game studios and stole the design. They need to pay royalties. Tht is obviously some chief armor.

[MrSpartacusthegod]

@JonnyMonster91

Agreed dude, entirely the Mark VI stuff. They added a tiny piece on the chin, and the shoulder pads on top are different, but besides that it's almost identical to the Mark VI armor (what Master Chief wears)

[dratinifan13]

I don't have a 360, so I was like FINALLY! THE MOVIES OUT! Now I don't have to play the game to understand. Then it was a phone. Damn it.

[Hal0Freako]

The first time I saw this commercial.... I just about had a heart attack

[Ghosthand]

lol @ all the halo fanboys

[vrezas12]

@Ghosthand lol at the only not halo fanboy

[GrayZoneMusic]

The more I watch this, the more disgusted I get. Samsung AND Microsoft need to explain this colossal failure IMMEDIATELY. The Halo community has been nothing but loyal and faithful to the franchise, and it is nothing short of insulting that this bullshit made it past negotiations, let alone to the storyboard. Somebody explain wtf happened. This shit is embarrassing.

[TheLegitReaper]

What is that supposed to be Master Chief in a Pelican getting chased by a Banshee? Fail...

[coolbji]

ingenious marketing really, It targets teenagers because usually theyre interested in Halo and fighting and such, so it draws their attention (full complete attention) then when they see the last part they have their full attention on samsungs product.

[NinjaMkV]

When the hell did Samsung team up with Bungie?

[Megapiro]

that is Masterchief armor - look at the cover of halo evolutions its almos the same

[minablock]

lol wut?

[xccell]

Oh no they didn't just rip off the Cheif! Where are the Bungie Ninja's at when you need them?

[GrayZoneMusic]

This is seriously bullshit. Terrible move by Samsung, and if Bungie actually licensed the use of MJOLNIR armor for a shitty cellphone commercial, then they're going to hell too. Someone please tell me what they were thinking, cause I don't see the strategy of pissing off an entire fan base to appease such a slim demographic of people who would find this amusing and not know that its a complete bastardization of the Halo franchise. I'm never buying a Samsung phone again.

[evilkaz200]

OMFG! at 1:13 you see master chief's real face!!!! seriously i thought that this was a HALO 4 commercial. JK

[simpsonelfguy1]

@evilkaz200 0:11

[DemomanX614]

I first thought it was a commercial for Halo, then I saw it was for a phone, then thought "Oh, maybe for Windows phone?...." then saw Samsung and was like ".... Wow" and that one part from futurama when the harlem globtrotters were on and bender showed the uniform he made and bubblegum tate said "Hello Lawsuit >:) "

[Overture2152]

smell that? I smell this little thing called lawsuit.

[coolbji]

@Overture2152 .... Samsung obviously got permission from Bungie, there is no way samsung would just air this without permission. Bungie supported it because Halo gets a little extra hype free of charge (and likely samsung payed bungie for the permission.)

[Overture2152]

@coolbji lol implying that Bungie can give permission to use a property that Microsoft owns.

[coolbji]

@Overture2152 indeed. I guess microsoft gave the permission then.

[vrezas12]

@coolbji actualy they wouldnt need permission its simalar but still different enough from halo sorta like all those star wars spoofs out there

[epicnessinacan]

O.O

[XxFuzzballxX]

I already sense Bungie creating a army to bring down sprint/samsung. ALL HAIL BUNGIE!

[jimmyboyG485]

Lolz... this is just like the medal of honour thing all over again. When will companies learn that if you insult/rip off Halo, the Se7enth Column will tear you apart?

[tyler7196]

@jimmyboyG485 medal of honor thing i want linky

[SpartanC33]

@jimmyboyG485 *Seven7th. Don't make me hurt you. ;D

[jimmyboyG485]

@SpartanC33

*Puts hands up*

[Hazardous95]

awesome commercial but next time lets not steal any ideas >:(

[ngilford1]

omgeee we got 2 c mastur ch33f w/out hiz helmit!!!!11

[fatalNV]

BAD MOVE SAMSUNG. Very...Bad...Move.

[bocajbee]

i sense a sewing my microsoft

[Simplepeepee]

yo dawgs i herd u like halo armors and i heard u like phones so we put halo in your phone so can yo can watch yourself fap yo

[flaconpunch671]

he could hav had recon

[DansonShoes]

OMGAH NERD RAGE THEY STOLE HALO'S ARMOR GAAAHHAHHHH!!!

Shut up.

[abcdef1237089]

Well, Samsung, it's time to blow your nose and smell the beans because your in some deep s(for the reader's consideration, we have censored this part of the comment) mother.

[Veenytheginge]

holy shit! that looks like MJOLNIR [halo] armour

[SparkyWifi]

bungie definitely would have sued if any of the spacecrafts looked similar or if the dude wore the helmet the whole time

[MarvelVideosx15]

Sweet commercial!! when i first saw this i thought it was supposed to be like a real life version of a Halo Reach trailer..but than i saw the phone and i was like what the??..but still Awesome looking Phone!! imma get it in February!! XD

[ATGEC]

rip off!! Master Chief doesn't run like a pussy and take off his helmet.

[ODSTwill]

WTF the stole spartan armor from halo

[skimdude24]

UPDATE:: Just saw the NEW commercial and they cut out the first few seconds that showed Master Chief... VICTORY!! hell yes give me a thumbs up if you think its good news and respond if anyone else saw it i hope it wasnt just a fluke.!! GO HALO REACH

[stuffedfun]

@skimdude24 Was gonna post this. I've seen the commercial 3 times today, and each time theres no spartan in site hahaha.

[dannybagoo]

lol fails i saw,



rip off of mark vi

the alien looks just like an elite/brute

the plane thing that the "chief" flys is the exact same thing just not purple of a convenent ship in halo reach

thats all i saw so dont call me a dumbshit for not seeing everything, i never said i did

[senorguy]

when i saw this commercial it pissed me off because they ripped off the Mark VI

aromr from MC and didnt even give any credit to bungie

[SugaFreeProductions]

I smell a lawsuit

[c17cowboy]

HALO RIP OFF!!!!!!!

[drunky1993]

holy shit i think i've had the most fun out of this video by reading all these awesome and hilarious comments. Man i love this world.

[ZinfinityX]

Someone needs to get sued for this nonsense.

[CompletelyAnonymous7]

like most people, when I say this I immediatly thought it was a commercial for a Halo movie. I was so dissapointed that I decided I would never, ever by a Samsung

[CompletelyAnonymous7]

@CompletelyAnonymous7 *buy

[SuperShot95]

At least I'm not the only one who noticed this. But hey, does anyone notice the subtle hints towards a halo movie? I mean I know that the making of a halo movie or halo 4 game is unlikely, but there seems to have been hints for this. First, since around Halo 3, Bungie always made a live-action trailer for their games suggesting that a movie about them can be made. Second, this. It's supposed to be like a movie trailer. "Coming soon." Idk, this is just my opinion.

[TheBIGJJR]

when i saw this i thought it was a halo movie.

[AnAmericanIdiot05]

Hahhahha, no one likes that Samsung's just tried to make a com, with Star Wars, Halo, and then... some... Alien from Aliens(like, Predator vs Alien) It was a pretty imaginative idea. It just backfired horribly.

[D2000000]

its the costume from a fan made halo thing one of the spartan outfits and the alien is designed after a brute but yeah halo stuff cool commercial though CANT WAIT FOR REACH =D

[SpartanC33]

@D2000000 Uuuuhhmmmmmmm.... can you say, NO?

[SpartanC33]

@D2000000 Can you say, "NO?" But can't wait for Reach either. xD

[D2000000]

@SpartanC33 LOL yeah man we should game kick some ass got live ??

[HuntingForTheTruth]

"Oh look, a new live commercial for Halo: Rea--wait...wait, WTF?!?!"

[scarecrow446]

Sad Face :(

[SeeingRed326]

Wow good marketing scheme, catch the attention of the Halo community. I'm sure it seemed like a good idea at first, but it sure has a lot of people mad. I still like the phone though...

[DisguisedBandit]

Fake chief runs like a fag.

[SpartanC33]

Seriously, Samsung, you screwed up. If anything, you just LOST consumers instead of gaining them by ripping off a great franchise. If you haven't lost them, you've lost me, anyway. Thumbs up if you agree. This is bullshit.

[robokilla586]

what is that? A giant plasma shooting claw and terrible looking seraph. Also when did the chief ever show his face?

[InebriatedAssClown]

This commercial comes on entirely too much I fucking hate it. way to rip off halo

[xPo1S0nXs0DaX]

At first I though Halo 3 Movie? Then I saw that big Spider Flying thing and I was like :(

[NeenerBalls]

when does the lawsuit happen?

[TheBlackBrickStudios]

*sniff sniff* I smell a lawsuit :)

[jokerdragon713]

Wow... Halo rip off, much? They can't seriously have thought no one would notice...

"The wonder of Samsung" must be their skill at ducking massive law suits.

[sweetoblivion6]

we got rick rolled by this. =C

[lcnorth21]

this commercial's just trying to pick up the fame of halo... and it fails miserably :p

[lolzismedz]

how is bungie not sewing the fuck out of these guys?

[detrigan]

@lolzismedz cuz bungie aint no seamstress

[TheRedDash]

@gameasaurus

??

[TheRedDash]

@gameasaurus that is the dumbest reason i have ever heard lmao!!! you should go to phatmic6922 for that penis on your face ha

[phatmic6922]

I wanna meet the person that made this and leave my penis imprinted on their face.

[johnnygigs1]

Samsung Ripping Halo off

[Skater22193]

i saw this and i thought it was the new halo reach commercial fucking samsung faking ppl out

[masterWhO]

I thought that.

[l33kat]

pahahahaha, wow. Yeah, they're up for a lawsuit.

[DarkDietyLink]

lol that dont look like a covenant though 

[sweetoblivion6]

@DarkDietyLink the first time it's shown, where you only see the eye does look like an elite but then it turns into some random thing.

[OwnJake]

Someone's going to get sued.

[Psych0DoomProduction]

@limiteddan can you blame us? they'er cashing in on the halo reach live action trailer. it is indeed bull shit from where we stand.

[waverider180]

lol he runs like a little obese kid

[UwHawk09]

did they just copy halo?

[boricuaboy24]

@UwHawk09 yes :(

[GhostLate]

Lol the first time I saw this I was like wtf

[someguywithacat]

i am disappoint

[Nightbeast165]

what is chief holding? a butter knife?

[Gioeli76]

So when I first saw this commercial, I thought "Wow, he looks just like master chief, but it is probably just mere coincidence." Well, then they showed the marine flying the ship and i just thought "DUDE!!! That is the generation 1 spartan armor!!! Are they so desperate for customers that they need to implement things from one of the highest selling franchises of all-time into a commercial?" Also the alien looks like a spliced version of sauron from lotr and space pirates from metroid. I'm mad!!

[TheTwelthStation]

im not buying this phone because they copied halo... iPhone ftw

[HokageKyubiNaruto]

I thought it was a movie. It looks like it

[xmetl]

the first time i saw this commercial, i thought it was a new ad for Halo Reach, i was dead wrong

[angryclown31]

that really pissed me off right there!

[xxxSTAxxx]

I was actually hangin out with a friend and he was like "dude is this a new reach commercial", I was pumped and then I'm like WTF.

[Spectre3554]

AND the alien almost looks like a smaller version of predator instead of an elite.

[Spectre3554]

Samsung needs to stick to other commercials Master Chief wouldn't run to a ship.

He would throw a spike grenade and stick the first alien ship, and then he'd shoot one with a plasma burst and hijack it and then rape the other alien with it go back and kill the one he hijacked then get in a warthog and drive to a huge ship while everything explodes and the map falls out behind him. by the time i finished that little story it said i had 117 characters left to use. 117= Master Chief.

[shuffle4]

RUN CHIEF RUN!

[ExternalGlitch]

i saw this and i was like WTF ITS MASTER CHIEF. XD im pretty sure we all thought that didnt we.

[BPSX3LR]

hahaha bootleg masterchief and these idiots put the wrong phone name in the title!!

[Spectre3554]

I'm telling microsoft and Bungie! You will be... BANHAMMERED!

[studystrike]

Whoa HALO MOvieaaaa. WTF!!!

[leebo508]

So has Bungie filed a lawsuit yet?

[huntedhunter278]

copyright infrringment anyone?

[Axlkill]

Why the fuck is everyone complaining about this? Microsoft allowed this on TV. They're using it to promote themselves and Samsung alike. Master Chief was on PS3 with Unreal Tournament 4 and you think they got pissed? They actually liked it! So deal with it stupid fan boys.

[Darkfirelol1019]

@Axlkill 

[DarthElmo771]

halo rip off >.> they could at least get there own materia....

[SpiderSilkX]

OMG people have just seen the Mastercheifs face this surely means the end of the world

[snicker80]

for the recorod microsoft owns a part of samsong so noones sewing anyone

[DDProducti0n]

@snicker80 lol sources please.. you might mean

Samsung uses a mobile version of windows.

Windows is a Microsoft product.

Microsoft owns Halo.

Do you get where I am going.. microsoft holds no stock in Samsung

[murdamike81]

THE MOST LAMEST, UNCREATIVE, SWAGJACKIN' COPYRIGHT INFRINGIN' ASS COMMERCIAL I EVER SEEN. get off halo's nuts and generate your own buzz.

[TheShadowstalker92]

0:08 That elite looks more like a predalien.

[TheShadowstalker92]

When I firsts seen this, I thought it was gonna be a preview for a Halo movie or something. Then I found out it was for a phone.

[BloodThornODST]

@TheShadowstalker92 Yeah. I instantly noticed the SPARTAN, then BAM, strange alien, strange ships.

[ccefok]

Why they use halo? i'm not saying is bad but why?

[sakabatto]

well they were supposed to make a halo movie, maybe this is a hint of some kind. I mean look at the ODST commercial, the capability is there, especially with the recent reach commercials. I say its just a matter of time.

[haxor758]

at 0:06 ... yea its a halo rip still looks awesome though screw 277 people

[9999whysoserious]

They Ripped off of Halo

[cjgrig01]

sweet but whats the alien in the ship

[M1magicwizard]

its halo check imbd

[snicker80]

its for the new halo movie they would not keep playing this if it wasent sponsered by bungie and they wouldent put a game video on a phone there last samsong commershal was for avatar something that could be on there phone

[BloodThornODST]

@snicker80 Your an idiot. You know why? Because that's not a Covenant vehicle, and those SPARTANs are wearing fictional armor.

[skaterinparadise1]

i want that movie !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[zxv678904]

i saw this and i was like WTF!!!!

[cybernet55]

maybe HALO for Android coming soon

[cameronus7]

halo star wars mix???

[SasquatchTestes]

Halo Reach=Radiohead

This commercial=Muse/Coldplay/Travi­s/Keane

[shagg187]

@SasquatchTestes Muse in the same sentence as Coldplay? Blasphemy!

[bbad729]

Epic hey a 3d Halo movie would be cool ..... too much talk of law suits you know the only winners is the lawers.

Hm hot phone!

[davbhard]

MS released a comment (just go through a lot of google pages) saying that Microsoft did not authorize samsung to use any of their IPs.

So That would definitely open the doors to a lawsuit. That was just a really stupid mistake on samsung's part.

[gaw9]

I kinda figured it wasnt halo when i saw the alien, but the dude really does look like it...

[MadNice1]

nobodys gonna get sued. it wouldnt go into ur pockets. wtf do u fandrags care?

[commandospartan]

COPYRIGHT INFRIGMENT

[Doom4321]

they are gonna get sewd Lmao

[GriffReachBetaVids]

Sue them! Sue those bastards! It's a complete rip off of Halo 3.

[tgaze]

ZOMG it has aliens and a guy with a cybernetic suit in space! It must be Halo! lol

[Hyokenseisou]

Can someone say "copy right infringement"?

[thadea]

I usually get a feed from the distant past of one guy kicking some guy down a well...he screams but then the signal is muffled

[Killswitch342]

He's running like an obese five-year-old. Like this if you agree.

[Caboose117111218]

Halo much.

[andrewsmithcr7]

before you guys claim copy infringement how do you know if microsoft gave samsung permission or not

[JosephHord666]

@andrewsmithcr7

They would have had a copyright tag in text, for one thing. It doesn't. And it also wouldn't have used unrelated imagery (the weird ships, the breathing vent on the helmet.)

If this was official, they would've ridden that to death.

[Nekrofear97]

Is this commercial using a video for Halo Reach or The Halo Movie that comes out in 2012(Note:is it a rumor?)

[051elite]

@marishtar

That's copyright infringement. They can't show it without Microsoft's permission

[LittleDragon5]

Where's the part where the other Spartan comes by and picks up the bomb?

Oh wait...

[marishtar]

How would this possibly end up in a lawsuit? You CAN legally show another company's product in an advertisement. Can't people just find this funny?

[clrhilla]

SAMSONG SUCKS RiPPEN OF HALO LIKE THAT!

[dexrocker11628]

thumbs up if you thought "HOLY SHIT, HALO MOVIE!!!!" and then was dissapointed

[TheRealEffenDeal]

@dexrocker11628 thats exactly what I thought too... i was all pumped and then it turned into a phone, and i was like wtf....

[IHaveLostMyAccount]

@dexrocker11628 shit i thought the exact samme thing!!!1! thumbs up for total rip- off!

[Sporevideomaker]

wow microsoft sue samsungs asses for this!!!

[DonCheadleIsGod]

guys no stop! this is original!

[Dalade99]

The only way Samsung can fix is is by making a halo movie. Do it now!

[Alives242]

Can some one say law suit?

[mmorpgman101]

LAWSUIT!

[051elite]

@YourLordliness

Observe how the chestpiece is EXACTLY the same. The helmet shape might not be copyright, but Mjolnir armor as a whole is

[buloboi28]

@roxasthedude it does, but it also has a star wars looking spacecraft and other "sci-fi" inspired stuff. But the general idea of the commercial was to show an "EPIC" battle and to promote its movie capabilities...when you get past the Sci-fi stuff you'll realize this commercial is actually good and gets its message across

[DrGreedie]

and if people immediately associate this with halo when they first see it, how can some of you people say it's not halo related

[MrDutchIZClutch]

of course this isn't halo, this is just a weird TV spot for a phone with aircraft from star wars or something -.-

[buloboi28]

I didnt realize Bungie invented science fiction battles....get over it!

[TheMercwithaMouthRAS]

@SexyJutsuNaruto XD GOOD ONE

[TheMercwithaMouthRAS]

Master Chief's  face has finally been revealed!!!!!

turns out his hispanic!!

[TheMercwithaMouthRAS]

Is that Master Chief I just saw : O!!!

[ShadowxFang3245]

gay ass commercial and it's a disgrace to Halo. Bungie should sue these guys...

[PlentyMoa]

There is too much of a resembalance for this to be coincidental...

I'm going to go smash my phone with a hammer now >.<

[phatmic6922]

I wanna rub my balls in the mouth of the director of this gay commercial.

[McJargle]

All that is a modified rubies suit.

Not all that special, but they've got the 10% difference.so no suing.

[SPArtan117ANDi]

@McJargle Um, there's still no copy right. They can still sue.
