Nope, no Covie killing. But what would be appealing about that whole thing, is that you would get to work with other Spartans, which would rule. But that might happen in Halo 2 anyway, so besides that, more people would get to know the history of the universe, instead of only those of us who've read the books. I think they should do a movie of First Strike and Halo mixed instead.

Yeah! That sounds like a great idea! i would totally go for that. And you could totally be one of the other Spartans and run alongside with the rest of em/ bbuuttttt, how would the game end right? b/c the planet gets glassed no matter what?

the problem here is that the destruction of reach was rather swift, im not sure if you could stretch it out long enough to be a full game, maybe if we adopted my uncommented idea from a few nights ago, the one of being able to play as an elite in campaign fighting against the marines, then maybe you could stretch the game to five levels per campaign, maybe, or you could play as will. the game would go from the fall of reach all the way to the destruction of the unyeilding heirophant, that could be a decent lenght game, maybe even longer than halo:ce

Dude, if they made the fall of reach in to a game, i would so by it. getting to play from the time john was kidnapped until reach is glassed and they jump into slipspace. that would be awesome.

l think they should do a movie of First Strike and Halo mixed instead.


That movie would have to be either six hours long, or have events so compressed it would be a disappointment to watch. Several films is the only way to go. I'd rather have just Halo made into two two-hour movies (think Kill Bill) than a single shorter version that left out a lot.

Definitely. I'm not saying they should shorten anything, it's just that I think just First Strike wouldn't make a good movie on it's own. But I guess it would do for the hardcore, I don't think that people who don't know what Halo is would like it as much though. But the Halo movie, I think that would rake in some big bucks.

I was just wondering if you think they should make a prequel to Halo like the book Fall of Reach.

i have only read Fall of Reach but i think that even w/out stuff from the Flood it would be decent length. if you got to play during John's (MC) original training that would help. also it would be cool to play during the battle of Sigma Octanus IV. only problem with that is: MC isn't there!!

If they did make a Fall of Reach prequel to Halo, they would have to add other missions from different areas and times other than Reach(since that battle was so quick), like on Sigma Octanus, or on Reach, when the MC had to go through that brutal obstacle course with the SkyHawk attacking him to test the final verson of the MJOLNIR armor.
