Spartan Recon 55 u have an interesting theory but the MC will not need to take the flood down on the other rings...as long as no aliens or accidents happen the flood will remain contained on those rings. It would be more dangerous to try to destroy them then it would to just leave them there. No point in making more problems to deal with if it can be helped

This is the Marathon Storyline=

2194- War between Icarus and Thermopylae.
2395- Purchase of Deimos from Free holders by UESG
2402- Doors Manual written up
2405- Marathon project begins pre-construction phase
2408- Deimos Conversion begins
2442- Misriah Massacre at food Riot
2465- Martians place munitions on Marathon
2466- Failed Martian Coup, MIDA controls government for
short period.
2472- Launch of Marathon
2773- Marathon arrives at Tau Ceti
2787- Colony established
2794- Marathon attacked

Halo's storyline takes place in 2525 and 2553.

Now take the time period and this is what you get=

2466- Failed Martian Coup, MIDA controls government for
short period.
2472- Launch of Marathon

2525- The UNSC makes first contact with the Covenant at the UNSC colony world Harvest. The First Battle of Harvest takes place. The Covenant destroy the colony without warning or provocation.

2553-The war ends in a UNSC-Covenant Separatists victory.


Posted by me:
Ok Now everyone who does not know the difference between the marathon time line and Halo's time line it would make virtually no sense for the chief to go back in time.

This is not Red vs. Blue people OK??? The Chief is not church and church is not John.

I think the whole marathon idea is getting outdated and makes virtually no sense to any player of the Halo games nor the books. Now Most likely the people at bungie wanted to freak players into thinking it will be marathon. Now for all you people who believe that marathon is going to be the new halo then you are Muslim Extremists (no offence) you look or read way too far into something and make it the only belief. And wish to spread your disease to others looking for salvation in an answer to a question. So quit making bull-blam!- theories and wait for the game to come out, Look for the theories on the features and things of that nature. NOT THE STORY. Now dont get me wrong i have a live, girlfriend, go to school, and enjoy videogames and reading but everyone needs to relax and wait.

P.S. my name on here is my gamertag i play Halo and COD4 so message me and we'll play.
Thats the important thing about video games. PLAY THEM DONT LIVE THEM.......I am going to work for bungie one day so i will kind of living the game more like working. I love halo and I am AN AMERICAN.

W00T i am way too L33T for Some of you Noobs lmao


Oh and the whole THEOROY JENKINS thing.



ITS EPIC and L33T..Lmao

I like the theory. It is well thought out and give proof as to what the next bungie game could be. As long as it could have MC in it i would be fine with that, or you are crazy but you have me convinced.

Subject: I have 100% Proof of where master chief is.

sounds possible. that OR they just floated to earth in 200 years. must have been warped. that or the new trailers are telling us something. the people said they used the same style in marathon for halo, so there is a lot of similarities. they aren't linked, nor will be. maybe if bungie wants. but anyway.... perhaps marathon is in the halo universe?

that or the planet getting hit by something in the vid wasn[t stated to be earth. it could be mars! we don't truly know the time.

and to be honest, i only know something about marathon cuz i played it from the marketplace and deleted it. boredme too much. it had its time, now is the time of the ringworld, HALO. but in my own oppinion, mc will be found. the planet is going to be mars or something and they will have to fight some covenate or flood and have the remaining spartans fight with them. or something like that.

Okay guys, i have no clue if this was mentioned here before, but something came to my mind:

You guys discussed, if there is the possibility to do "time travel" in the official "Halo" Universe.

There have been some people that say, that this is unlikley. But, i can say, it is not unlikley, it is PROVEN, that it is possible:

Nicole, codenamed SPARTAN-458, is a fictional character from Team Ninja's 2005 fighting game Dead or Alive 4. Originating from the Halo fictional universe, she is a result of collaboration between the game's developers and Bungie Studios, the developer of the Halo series. After Team Ninja asked Bungie to use the protagonist of Halo, the Master Chief, in their game, Nicole was created instead to avoid storyline conflicts. Her appearance in pre-release promotional previews of Dead or Alive 4 raised interest in the game's development.

Nicole is portrayed as a twenty-sixth century human female from Mars who was kidnapped by the United Nations Space Command (UNSC) and placed into the SPARTAN-II Project, and who eventually becomes a Petty Officer Second Class. Her presence in the Dead or Alive universe is explained as an accident involving the space-time continuum that has transported her to the twenty-first century.


Nicole is the result of collaboration between Tecmo's Team Ninja and Microsoft's Bungie Studios. Team Ninja originally asked Bungie for permission to use the Master Chief, which proved impossible due to storyline restrictions. But the staff at Bungie were intrigued with the idea and wanted to try something similar. As a result, Bungie developed the concept of a Spartan not entirely connected to the Halo storyline who could conveniently and somewhat plausibly be fit into the Dead or Alive universe. This concept evolved into the character of Nicole.

Bungie explained Nicole's presence in the Dead or Alive setting of the twenty-first century in an article that revealed the character's background. The studio stated that the character, who has never appeared in any other Halo fiction, is sent to the twenty-first century when a partially stable "bubble" in the space-time continuum opens near Nassaru Station, where she and her unit are preparing for a secret mission. This "bubble" is created when Apocalypso, an ONI stealth vehicle, interacts with real-space, as a result of an unusual slipspace incident.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicole_(Dead_or_Alive)


Okay, you still can´t believe this?

What about the official Bungie website? Yes, i mean THIS website!

Nicole was born in the year 2531 in the city of New Legaspi on Mars. At six years of age she was abducted by agents of the Office of Naval Intelligence and conscripted into the Spartan II program. The Spartan II program was the UNSC's highly successful military project to augment and hone perfect soldiers.

SPARTAN-458's unit was preparing for a classified mission on Nassau Station when the ONI stealth ship Apocalypso tumbled into real-space – being carried along in the wake of a freak slipspace anomaly. The anomaly intersected Nassau Station; creating a semi-stable "bubble" in the space/time continuum on its way back to the 21st Century.

For the time being Nicole-458 is trapped in the 21st century; guarding Nassau Station's secrets with all but lethal force (she realizes killing someone in the past could have dire consequences), waiting for the "bubble" to collapse and hopefully returning her to the year 2552.

So, thats it. I DON´t prefer any theory where the MC is right now.
But the speculations, if there CAN be time travel in the Halo Universe are over. There IS the possibility of time travel in case of a "slipspace accident"!

This does NOT however proof, that there is the possibility to go to another "universe", but proof for time travel.

BUT you have to keep one thing in mind:

IF this was only time travel and NOT travel to a parallel universe or something, THEN this would mean that tha HALO universe and the Dead or Alive Universe are the same universe!

So if you don´t like this idea, you have to say, that Nicole did not (only) do time travel via slipspace, but travel to a parallel universe too. However thats not proven.

But at least time travel IS proven!

Subject: Where in the world is Master Chief?. An extensive scientific theory.

Relax, its a game.

I dont like the theory, but it is well supported. I do however completely disagree with the part that says Onyx "asploded". It didn't; anyone that wants proof of that read the ending again. Onyx was entirely artificial and comprised of sentinals. The explosion at the end was of the nukes going off to close the entrance to the slip space field Dr. Halsey and the remaining spartans entered. No way they could have destroyed an entire planet. On the other hand, one thing that may support it, although i hope its not true, is that possibly since bungie has split from microsoft .....microsoft may retain rights on the halo franchise...so by sending the storyline into the maratho series Bungie may still hold the rights to master chief's story. I dont know anything about the legalities of the bungie and microsoft agreement, but this is a theory thread.

No...
• That's just a ball of raw material, not a planet.
• Chunks of iron don't give off twinkly lights like the legendary planet.
• You'd see the Ark instead of a star field behind it if it was.

marathon.
looks.
cool.

  • 09.28.2008 9:35 PM PDT

something brought to my attention.i think cortana is one of the 3 AI in marathon. " The Marathon AI Durandal, is named after a mythical sword. Cortana is a sword which bears the inscription: My name is Curtana, of the same steel and temper as Joyeuse and Durendal. " source http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Marathon_references_in_Hal o so yeah its likely

Strength And Honour

Only bungie know where the Chief is...and having absolute proof? how can anyone have absolute proof of the Chief's location? the OP backed up his theory by giving us an astronomy lesson and showing thermal images of mars? ...lol, this aint real mate, its a game,
all of your astronomical data accounts for nothing, the Chief is exactly where Bungie say he is. Also, no way could Marathon replace Halo as a game concept, Bungie have done that,been there...there's more chance of a Halo CE remake......

Ok guys Basically marathon leads into Halo Series. ok (it is a thoery) now an alien species attacks eath colonies(halo) but they already know english. Now wait a second The Chief is a Spartan-II Where are the mysterious Spartan-1s? Those are the soldiers or players in Marathon. makes sense? Now for the whole marathon thing. He cant go back in time for Money reasons. Ok Now If you were bungie and many many people NEVER PLAYED MARATHON then why make the chief Re Live it. People who never played marathon(including myself) Will not understand the story. Oh another thing about marathon + Halo stories. We know nothing about the history of the covenant. The Elites and Hunters only showed up at reach( Minutes Before Halo 1) now how would that make sense????? maybe those monsters are the old covenant???
