OMFG...Ihavnt seen anywhere where someone said the chief was dead, especially considering the final cutscene shows him alive. That was a lame attack at no-body. Also, NO MARATHON. HOLY -blam!-. Let me debunk that -blam!- again with the same points ive always pointed out
End Of Halo:
Master Chief (a genetically enhanced soldier with insane tonnage armor) goes into cryo on the "FORWARD ONTO DAWN"
Marathon:
A super soldier wakes up on a ship called the "Marathon'
may be both super soldiers, but, they are on two different ships.
Characters also, the AI's in the games have DIFFERENT names..Halo's is Cortana, "Marathon's" are Leela, Durandal;, and Tycho.
You say marathon takes place by Mars (a red dirt ball planet). Halo 3's final cutscene shows the `Dawn floating towards a dark planet with a forerunner-ish lighting coming from the surface, with a blue-light immiting star. Our sun, doesnt emmit blue hued light.
Another point. The ship "Marathon" was built out of Mars' moon Deimos. The "Forward Onto Dawn" is a regular UNSC ship...
In marathon, the main government is the UESC: United Earth Space Council. Halo: UNSC: United Nations Space Command.
Marathon: sub light speed ships (slower than the speed of light), and no hyper-space/slipspace/etc. Halo: Slipspace (faster than light/hyperspace) traveling ships.
Marathon: No such thing as Halo's or the Forerunners, the slipspace portal on Earth, Onyx, etc.
Marathon: Humanity hadnt colonised as many planet or explored as much as the UNSC in Halo.
Lazyboy, the ark wasnt in another universe, it was outside out galaxy and only accesible through a strong enough slipspace bubble (Earth side slipspace generator for example.
