Once again!

We won't , and unless bungie clarify or make a continuation of the game, ever know where he is! .

Stop saying, " It has to be Reach "

It doesn't have to be anything...

Judging from the Marking it could be forerunner, but it could be a Sangheili planet...like i said, there are to many possibilities!

It is belived that after the Master Chief put himselth in cryo with Cortana whaching over him,a huge planet apeared behind the ramains of the 'Forren Unto Dawn',I(and probbly alot of other people)belive it is a foggoten Forruner planet that the Forruners setteld on befor they descoverd 'The Flood' and created the Halo rings.Not bad for a 13 year old is it?

  • 06.06.2010 11:48 AM PDT

Nope this is wrong. Master Chief landed on the third shield planet.

How'd you find me?

But Microsoft owns Halo, so bungie can't do anything with Master Chief.

Dinkleberg..... >:(

Dude I am seriously mind-f**ked right now. Okay, I find your theory interesting but I think it can be easier to explain. For instance, I think the alternate universe thing is unnecessary. You could just say that the Halo and Marathon universes are the SAME THING. The Covenant completely obliterated the human empire except for Earth. It would be very plausible to say that it took 200 years for the humans to start rebuilding their empire.

Anyway, your theory is cool but I'd rather believe something else. I still am pissed that Bungie left us hanging by having the Chief not die. The story would seem more complete and finished if he had just died in the explosion.

It's impossible for the forunner to be on mars because the forunners were extinct when they activated halo. then they had to start life all over again plus most of the forunners died by the flood

you know, if there is any other game that has caused this much stimulation, id like to go and play it. we've been pulling clues out of our ass to figure out where chief is. Bungie has to be the most ingenious game creating company ever conceived. Plus we're linking together stuff from a series of games that had ending quite a bit a go. Not only does that mean they were preparing for this for over a decade, they are *ucking patient. Either that or they just went along with it during halo 1.

  • 06.10.2010 11:58 PM PDT

I blame myself, not Stosh.

I think it may be a shield world as seen in Halo Wars. It's possible it's Onyx, but I can't be too sure. Only Bungie could clear this up.

i think that chief was blasted into space away from halo when the portal colapsed

Subject: Where in the world is Master Chief? An Extensive Scientific Theory.

i dont agree with that halo-marathon theory chief is still in his universe but when the portal collapsed it caused some kind of reaction that teleported them to the forerunner home world or maybe mendicant bias teleported them idk but look at those symbols on the planet its not human or covenant its freakin forerunner and it cant be onyx it got blown up and reach got glassed. Chief and cortana found the forerunner home world it might be abandoned or maybe that's where some forerunners live in and maybe chief could go home by finding a forerunner ship on that planet and use it to find earth's coordinates and go home.
probly infected with flood, or littered with dead flood (from starvation)

Look at the legendary cut scene, Look where the light originates from, Then look at that picture.
You are looking at an early mars, From the game marathon, With the sun eclipsing Luna, Which creates the big flash of light.


I know someone will read your post and state for the thousandth time that Bungie has stated that Halo and Marathon are in no way related blah blah blah... BUT, how is this Mars? From what I know, Marathon was like, a couple hundred years later than Halo's timeline... Also, how could this planet be Mars when the Ark is so close by, and not to mention Earth being right down the road...I don't think humans ignored something like the Ark if it was so close by ya know? Also, if that flash is indeed a sun, it is blue, and much hotter than our sun...

I think though that I may have misunderstood what you were trying to get across so...I will wait for your response hehe :-)


The star we know as the 'sun' is a relatively young star, if stars can be called young, and will only get hotter, intense flames often turn bluish in color so your whole argument has been blown apart by one very tired slightly depressed ninja

Forerunners in a nutshell are the same species as humans are, watch the cinematic when breach the control room in HALO 3 but im sure that the forunners dropped some primitive version of themselves on earth along with the portal to the ark, but all in all the forerunners killed themselves activating the rings

  • 06.16.2010 6:43 PM PDT

1st of all, what is marathon, please respond by messaging me cause i wont likely check this thread again. 2nd your theroy does seem sound but what just what if this is inside a forerunner shield world. I mean the ark was ment to be a key and a shield the same time. what if the ripple sent them into the shield world somehow. This seems more logical to people who never played marathon or even heard of it. But good theory just the same.

  • 06.17.2010 2:55 PM PDT

from what i know the rings had a safety thing (i dont know what) which could of teleported chief and the ring wasnt complete. if you look closely in halo: ce on the pillar last level you can see marathon painted on the side and the flood came from another galaxy meaning they could still exist meaning forerunners could be alive still. ths is just what i think...

People who don't fear death haven't experienced it for themselves.

One of the things you guys are forgetting though, is that Cortana is a smart AI, whose lifetime is around 6-7 years. So most likely if that is Mars 200 years in the future (2752-3), Cortana would be dead. And Chief wouldn't have aged a bit due to being in Cryo sleep.
This is a great theory. I love the thing with the security permutation (the security helmet is based off the guy from Marathon, who was a security officer). Totally plausible. I think Bungie is Hiding something.
Since they can't legally continue the Halo series (i think so. correct me if I'm wrong, because I'm not 100% sure), they will probably make a bunch of connections and continue the Marathon series.I'm excited for what's to come.

If any of this is true...I would have to say that Bungie has made the best and most intricately put together. single game series ever (if you could call Marathon and Halo the same series if this is right). even more then Zelda (HUGE FAN of Zelda games), Metroid (big fan as well). It is possible that Bungie planned ALL of this from the beginning...though highly unlikely.
This has got to be the most mysterious and awesome game ever. Thought that COD4/MW2 was better (maybe in core gameplay, but Modern Warfare's story ain't got nuttin' on Halo), but now I realize that Halo has so much that can be built upon. So much mystery...Almost too much Canon to comprehend. While I still enjoy the COD games (and wish that IW would make a MW3), I have found that the Halo universe is just too awesome and intriguing to pass up.

1. The UNSC delete AI's after seven years for fear of rampancy, you people really need to stop paraphrasing that passage from fall of reach. Forerunner constructs could live for Eons, so that supports the fact that AI's aren't limited.
In halo evoultions halsey states that she removed alot of
memory from cortana when she made her so she could use the memory more efficiently and not become rampant early like other AIs. Early meaning around 7 years, cortana doesn't know about this though.


The halo encyclopedia pretty much unofficially confirms the planet to be forerunner. It states that the forerunners left the Orion arm after they re=seeded the galaxy. Then in halo 3 MB states he wants the forerunners to know he has changed and MC will be the example. Next thing you know chief appears at a forerunner looking planet in unknown space.
