I dont think so, in the documentry, when they were in the pelican, one of those guys looked exactly like one of them, and they dont look like spartans, I think they are marines.

Yeah I've read it- but we have no proof that SPARTANS in action in Halo 2. I'm not sure though, they might be SPARTANS.

The book only proves that SPARTANS still exist- that doesn't mean that SPARTANS will be in Halo 2, or that you will be able to fight with them.

Ok, first off no they aren't Spartans. The new marines are wearing new upgrade uniforms like MC's. If there are more Spartans I promise you that you won't find out until you actually get to play the game. Basically dont jump to too many conclusions about more Spartans. Although on a better note, if you watch IGN.com videos, they do say, "It remains to be seen how an equal amout of Spartans will fair."

Dude this wallpaper isn't new. If you new how to read you would see that it clearly states this is a painting from a while back that the artist photoshopped into a wallpaper.

And no they're not spartans. They're ODST's.


Try to do a little research before you post stupid threads such as this.

When they said that, they were talking about a multiplayer game (since, in Halo 2, you can be either an Elite or Spartan); as in, they don't know yet whether Elites are stronger or Spartans are stronger, but whoever wins the multiplayer match will decide it.

Those are ODST's. The wallpaper is based on and uses most of an OXM cover, and in that same mag, it states that they are ODST's, not Spartans.

Maybe the Spartans + MC will all go on one mission but they will be acting independantly.. then all die some how leaving MC once again the last (maybe) Spartan.

Where does it say 2 marines? Hearts on Bullets? WTF are you talking about!?

And the writing under his foot, is called a signature. You see when artists paint things they generally sign and date their work as a way of authenticating it. Duh.

It looks more like an ODST's armor.

Actually, he probably said that because most people, even military, had never seen a spartan, only heard the Heroic stories. They even list all dead spartans as MIA so it seems like they never die, to anyone who notices. It doesnt necessarily prove there will be others in game, but we already know there are others in existence
