now its apparent that there will be a new alien that is cappable of emense phisicle power. now i have been playing marathon (which i resently downloaded) and found these guys:
http://www.bungie.net/images/Games/Marathon/Screenshots/Marat hon/sm_mara7.jpg

now those real big gray guys are what i think the new "warthog smashers" could look like, although probably a little bigger and more...shaply from all angles.

its only a possiblilty i thought it might end up that way becuase of the things in marathon and halo have in comin: pistol with scope (although unsusable) aliens who misteriously attack. color coded rankings (although common in other games) a female AI who guids you through the game. units who use the line "there every where" (used by civilians or technitions repetitivly and is vary annoying.)

You seriously need to play Marathon.

Those "big purple things" are Drinniol. No, they will NOT be in Halo 2. The "warthog smasher" enemy is most likely going to be a giant Flood form.

Trust me.

You missed his point, he is pretty much saying...

Do you think the Warthog Smashing ones will look something like the Drinniol.

He only assumes because of all the similarities between the games
