shadow your right but its bungie they can make up things un related and most people dont even relize it. I still think they are the best though

IF and remember this is IF it is a beta, it doesn't necesarily need to be completed yet. Don't you guys remember the time span between the announcement and the release of the Halo 3 beta?


Yeah dude, the time period from announcement to release for Bungie is roughly 3 years... but... the time period from release to announcement (i.e. Halo 2 Release to Halo 3 announcement) is generally a lot less than a year. That being said I can guarantee you that Bungie has some sick s*** coming around for us as fans. They have obviously had the time frame to work with, and they rarely disappoint

Edit: though someone might have not said to praise us we all know we like it deep down ;D

Aww. Thank you. =P
And yes, the Beta announcement and release will most probably have a decent time span. That's what I meant by a long road ahead of us, or whatever I said. >.<
Man, this is coming along so lovely now. Makes me feel all warm on the inside. XD

I think I set a record time for my fastest shower. haha

Holy hell. I leave for work and theres 8 pages, i come back and 53. Ive been following this since it started, but I dont really feel like combing through 45 pages. Anyways, if someone could sum up whats happened, I'd be very grateful.

I am going to quote exactly what I said earlier. I've been copying and pasting into Microsoft Word all the key points.

"Alright, I've been asked for explanations many times, and they get shorter each time. haha

Anyways, this game is most likely going to be related to The Fall of Reach. The reasoning for this is that the two people conversing seem to be in a hurry, meaning they were not prepared for this. In other words, this is a new threat, the covenant. The firing of the many archer missile pods resembles an exact event in the book. Thus, this may very well be based on the beginning of the entire Spartan/Mjolnir program. Maybe it will begin with the taking of the kids, training them, then sending them out to their first missions as in The Fall of Reach?

All I can say is, watch the webcams. The drink the grunt is holding, the handwritten sign, the boxes.. Hell, the PAX Event Schedule could very well be moved to reveal something under it. They update every 59.3 seconds or so, just for your information.

So, this is all mere speculation, as are everyone's thoughts. Eventually, this shall all solidify into one big "Tru7h", as Bungie would say.

On a side note, I'm very mad. I had to type this twice, and I probably left out information. >.<
Stupid link that guy posted.. I copied it, and it got rid of the text I typed and copied, because it didn't send.

Also, that link you posted, it's probably fake. Ensemble was busy working on Halo Wars. Why would they work on something as big as a Massively Multi-Player game at the same time? Things like that require a huge task force, something a sub-branch of Microsoft probably does not have. So, it has nothing to do with this. There is no need to talk about that here.

**Edit -- If you want my explanation of the previous Keep It Clean thread, then please refer to pages 90-138 or so of the article. You should find at least one of my many explanations there. Each one in there got more descriptive, so if you don't find one in that page range, then one will definitely be in 60-80."

Now, tack onto that the word: Beta.

At the moment we have gone through the following theories....

1. A new game is to be announced soon that may be a prequel to the first Halo, probably around the time of the Fall of Reach
2. S1 does NOT stand for spartan 1, more than likely it is Section 1 of ONI
3. A possible beta may be released due to the fact that the ombusman is defined as a person that listens to complaints and other things, and also one of the related stories to the article KEEP IT CLEAN is about the Halo 3 beta. therefore we have assumed that there may be a beta for this new project orrr...... OH MY GOD I JUST HAD AN EPIPHANY!!! WHAT IF IT'S A BETA FOR HALO WARS???

Bungie is not developing halo wars, Ensemble is, so I highly doubt Bungie would be building all this hype for it...

Myself, I would be ecstatic at the prospect of Halo 4, but since thats not going to happen, a prequel at Reach would be quite awesome indeed.
