Does anybody think so about Halo:The cole protocol


i think thats it...it says and i quote

Halo: The Cole Protocol will be the sixth novel set in the Halo Universe. Tobias S. Buckell, author of Crystal Rain and Ragamuffin will pen the novel, which reveals the location of the Spartan Gray Team and “takes readers into an unexplored conflict of the Human-Covenant War where unlikely alliances are formed and shattered…”

Bungie expatriate and Microsoft’s Franchise Development Director Frank O’Connor had this to say on the upcoming book, which is slated for a Fall 2008 release, “Buckell continues an excellent tradition that’s now a solid aspect of the Halo novels, bringing a fresh new perspective to a limitless universe and bringing his prodigious writing talents to bear in ways that will surprise and engage fans of the series and newcomers alike.”

I'd like to be half-man half-tree in an octopus' garden in the shade.

Wow, 46 pages already! A lot goes by during school. I already know everything from the first SI message, but are there any ideas about this next one that are worth telling me? I just want a general page area, like 20-25 or something because I don't really want to read almost 50 pages of probably mostly spam.

I really don't understand why some of you can get so incredibly angry over this stuff. Take in to account that no one wants to read 50 plus pages of people arguing just to find one bit of information that they could just ask about. Don't throw a tantrum. Kindly let them know it was discussed a couple of pages back and they can find it there. That's really all it takes. I know some of you feel a little empowered end untouchable behind your computer screen, but thats not how it works. That being said, if your going to be an -blam!-, then just shut up.

i found out ombudsman means an official that takes in the complaints of the people

Please buy a headset

Keep in mind the time frame between Halo 2 and 3. Halo 2 was exhausted with content, material, downloads, competitions, etc. Then, three years later, Halo 3 was released.

Bungie wouldn't pour this much effort into Halo 3's maps and achievements only to have a game released by winter 2008 after just celebrating a one year anniversary. At this point a business might try to relaunch a game based on new content and re-newed interest created by fans who share the game on co-op and LAN parties.

And since prequels are the new trend with other franchises (Star Wars, Star Trek, Batman, Dumb & Dumber), it could very well be possible for a prequel series, but not for 2 more years.

What? What bench? lols... I'm blind.

Somehow I have a feeling it's either:
A.) The Prequel, since they did say S1 which could mean Spartan-1s
or
B.) The game based on Grey squad, as mentioned above...

If you look at this stuff....go to a park or something else active

I usually have something no matter how absurd it is, of what this stuff means, but this has got me stumped.

An ombudsman (English plural: conventionally ombudsmen) is an official, usually (but not always) appointed by the government or by parliament, who is charged with representing the interests of the public by investigating and addressing complaints reported by individual citizens.

So they're listening?
