this theory is very plausible but I think it would be a mistake to simply go into marathon.

first off, there is alot of unfinished business in the halo universe, like the sparten IIs and IIIs in the micro-dyson sphere. even if onyx is destroyed the slipspace bubble would have protected him; so leaving this many loose ends would ruin the story. its good story telling to leave alittle mystery but not that much
second, the portal on the ark and on earth would likly be a very large very advanced slipspace hole so if it collapsed the arbitor would be the more likely to be sent to another universe, not john, he would simply be left behind.
finally don't mistake the large number of marathon refrences to evidence. Its likely that bungie wanted a huge marathon refrence for the finally for the hardcore marathon fans, since the game did change alot since combat evolved. remeber that marathon was bungies most succsessfull game since halo.

A well-built sniper rifle is a beautiful thing. Mine has two separate levels of zoom: 'Up-close-and-personal' and 'Hello-you're-dead'.

Finally a user has put a good theory about Master Chief's fate.
Kudos!

Nobody cares about anyone else's opinion - be it mine, yours, or a cult of angry star wars nerds - when they are enjoying what they enjoy.

Everyone cares about opinions, that's why we socialize on a forum with strangers.

I like this theory. I don't have a clue whether or not it's actually right, but I know I like it.

Having said that, I think Bungie is done with Marathon. This was just a way to tie the Halo universe to the Marathon universe once and for all, but I doubt Bungie will actually re-visit that world. They've got bigger and better things to do, like pursuing all-new IPs and continuing the Halo franchise via spin-offs and prequels.

FORGE!

Wow, amazingly well put. But I just had an appifiny. since the sun in The legendary cutscene is blue. If anyone has played Hullbreach Online here, then you would no that the planet Fuchsiar has a blue sun, here is a quote from the Hullbreach website

Early explorers found this barren planet orbiting around a blue giant start. From space, the planet had a light purple haze to its atmosphere, so the exaggerative name of Fuchsiar came naturally. It was soon discovered that the soil consisted of slight iron content.

Tee hee, probably not true, but maybe Bungie is co-herance with Hull breach, maybe, just maybe...

Theroy.MasterCheifLocation.Y0SH1 M4S73R = "Cheif is in slipspace. Right as Arby's half went through the exit of the slipspace area, the portal collapses, leaving Cheif and Cortana in slipspace. Because the portal is forerunner, the space-time procession on either side will be the same. If a slipspace portal is opened and Cheif and Cortana's side hit that area, Cheif and Cortana will exit slipspace." I R PWNZR OP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dude, wow my friend has been saying ever since he beat Halo 3 on Legendary that, the next game Bungie would make would involve Marathon, which I thought was plausible, but now I have proof, and I think they should, it would be like MC in the past and he would have met 343 Guilty Spark, and that would explain a lot of what happens in the Halo games.

  • 07.19.2009 8:28 PM PDT

i think marathon and halo are in the same universe but their different stories colliding into one but master chief is in the pre-marathon, when cortana said that the slip space portal collapse im thinking that half of the ship didnt reach the end of the portal while the other part made it and since the ark is outside our galaxy marathon is somewhere probably between our galaxy and the ark thats where master chief is located somewhere in between those two but i dunno its just my theory

  • 07.19.2009 9:00 PM PDT

If that is correct then I think you are awesome. Either way good theory.

this theory is so far an epic win! Hopefully you're right about it.

alright what i think is that u are over thinking this... the end of halo 3 had the planet or whatever light around it w/e and it the halo reach trailer notice how it had almost the exact same planet looking thing well maybe it could be a hint that they were making a new game... halo reach. And for the guy who did all the research... really...? all that time wasted...

sounds rubbish

  • 07.21.2009 12:13 AM PDT

Forgive me, I enjoyed reading the theory but it would help if someone would enlighten me what the following terms mean so that I can get a better understanding of this theory.

What are the Forerunners, The Marathon, and may someone summarise the theory :).

Thanks <33

even thought all of those "experienced bungie.net members" with "trusted opinions" say you are wrong, I hope your right. that would be a perfectly good reason(s) for bungie to remake marathon.

the forerunners are the ancient species in the halo story(guilty spark is one of them, cold storage is a forerunner research lab). Marathon is an old game by bungie that this guy is trying to prove will be the next remake.
and im too lazy to summarize it.

I just somehow doubt that the Chief's ship, which had dropped a beacon to aid in its recovery, would drift undetected for 200 years all the way to Mars. Something tells me that someone in this Marathon Universe would have noticed it


Maybe the Chief is really, really lucky to live over two centuries.
Just saying... :)
