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 :-)


You didn't say a single intelligent thing.

This is the best theory ever, but you forgot one thing. Bungie gave the rights of halo to microsoft. BUT bungie moved masterchief into the marathon universe, my guess is that bungie saved masterchief by putting him in there, or he is the marathon man, just my theory. So lets hope what we see next is a little more chief and alot more multiplayer.

If the game wasn't made by bungie, I wouldn't believe it for a second ;)


no one would

Quick as a razor, sharp as a bullet.

I did wonder. Bungie said that Halo and Marathon take place in different universes. This doesn't mean they're unconnected universes. And it's a Slipspace portal, right? The laws of time and space and realities go out the window, just as they do in (I'm not so confident with talking about Marathon, but I'll give it a shot) Marathon Infinity. Probably. Well, there's alternate universes, isn't there? I think it's very plausible.

On the other hand, it seems a bit of a dead end. We know what happens in Marathon, some of us (I'm not entirely sure myself, given that it was before I started getting into games seriously, but I looked at the plot on Wikipedia), and Bungie looping it back around seems very clever but a bit of a squib at the same time. Maybe it's just me, but I kinda hope that isn't Mars/Deimos (sp?) in the Legendary ending.

so in this new game will we still be M.C. and cortana or will we be like that dude from marathon? I don't want to be that guy! i like the chief and don't want him to die like that. also would cortana think herself to death or would she still be around for the next game?

You realize that Bungie can do what they want and make all of your "proof" count for nothing with a follow up game that tears your theory to bits. Bungie tells the story you just play it, if they don't agree then you are wrong.

Marathon Infinity was all about alternate universes.

Ghosts of Onyx talks about how Covenant slip-space travel was far more advanced than Earth's, and that the Forerunner slip-space technology was far beyond that of the Covenant, suggesting that it could slip across more than space, and possibly across more than time. Also in Ghosts of Onyx, the Spartan-III's that were frozen in capsules were no longer in normal space and time.

That there's a Security Officer permutation isn't much supporting evidence, as Bungie loves their fans and wish to give their older fans plenty to love. That the Marathon symbol was on just about everything in the Halo universe stands as fan service more than relation, until you take Marathon's allowance of multiple contradicting realities into account.

Theory approved.

I always talk like this. And yes, I am angry.

In case no one noticed this, (though its not definitive) The latest news from Bungie might be suggesting something about the new map packs skyline being PERHAPS related to Marathon.

Cotton Balls skybox continues to fill out, now giving players who paid attention in Halo 3 some pretty exhilarating context in regards to “where” they are. Frankie says “the skybox has been there all along, you’re just too blind and stupid to see it – abres los ojos.” I wanted to include a really, REALLY small screenshot, but PR would react as though the brown note had been sounded from the Apocalypse Trumpet.

~Bungie news(2/8/08)

NOTE: I have little idea what I'm talking about, and this is not definitive evidence since Bungie will neither confirm nor deny it.

okay the portal is a matter stream that leads out of the milky way and how do you know that the planet is mars it makes no sense because you saw it in iris what makes you think that that is mars because the moon or sun is peeking out above the planet bah!!! totally filled with geuss work this theory has to many holes in it
nice try you need more evidence then a com device

Very plausible, but sadly Bungie has said that Halo is not relevant to Marathon... or are they trying to trick us? *brain asplodes*

Fixed. Still badly fragmented sentences. I kind of wish I understood what his argument was.

And yes, I'm a believer in the theory... Well, maybe I'm a hopeful bystander, to be more accurate.

train hard, win big, live well.

i am one who likes the idea of the marathon connection its cool and stuff but why does cheif automatically shift through dimensions in this theory why not just time mc becoming this portal junky just does not seem quite right to me perhaps he is just shifting through time (having written this i just had the though does anyone know the dates the marathon games take place in?) and where does the flood come into play in all this not to mention the forerunners who are what anything involving halo or master cheif will most certainly be revolving around. and how could they relate to marathon

  • 02.10.2008 12:47 PM PDT

i think ur a nut job!

"The only good Elite is a dead Elite."

All anyone and everyone knows for fact is that the exact location of MC & Cortana is unknown. Your theory is sound, but i think you are reading too much into it. The separate universe thing just seems kind of thin to me. This is my take on it.

Halo/Marathon = same universe, different time.

We know Cortana drops a beacon, but she says it could take years. The ship continues to drift for 200 years. And by the time it makes it to Mars (if it IS Mars...) it just looks like a 200 year old piece of space junk.
(here comes the way-too-much-thought-went-into-this part of my theory)
Think of the exponential rate at which technology evolves today, 2008. You don't think that 200 years after Halo 3 even if another ship saw or detected the giant floating sleeping bag of Master Chief, they wouldn't just write it off as a piece of antiquated junk? And I know that particular ship could be earmarked as important to the UNSC military, but 200 years worth of changes in command, not to mention any kind of damage the ship would take in 200 years of floating through space, not to mention the other ships that were lost in the war with the Covenant, it could simply be written off as space junk.
And here is another thing about the cutscene.

1 "blah blah blah wake me if you need me snore snore snore"

2 FADE TO BLACK

3 new scene, big planet (Mars?)

The fade to black could be a 200 year time lapse. It would be craptastic editing, but better than some other things I've seen. After all, we still haven't figured out what the blackout at the end of the Sopranos was about : )

What do you guys think the planet means in the legendary ending? I think it might be a hint for the next game.

What do you guys think?
