Never posted here before figure throw my 2 cents in. The 2 cryptic posts revolve around the s1, someone from oni. I believe that person from the keep it clean post is in this place and somethings wrong he or she does a query for those three words. “EMERGENCY” “DATA” “CORRUPTION” . Something has already happened and is gathering intel. Possible flood outbreak. (growling) Now it sounds like in all halo books the covenant are looking for artifacts of forerunner. Now to the pardon our dust. It seems to me the person on the ground found a lead wherever he or she is and wants their team of whomever spartans, odst, whatever to help. As this happens covenant came in to look themselves for forerunner objects and saw a ship HEAVY CRUISER “SAY MY NAME”. and engaged. Now hes overwhelmed and refers to his orders from hq. He going to put up the oni team the s1 refers to. Now whats interesting is there is a whole team but she only sends the name of the ranking officer. And at the end the captain of the ship says And right now? That’ll take a genuine act of God. then the person on the ground says [DARE.V.500341(S1)]: “I’ll see what I can do.” This person on the ground is a person of power that can somehow help the person in space above. With what a mac gun maybe? Also a side note. All halo games refer to 117 as they met him before, or the idea of him before. '''Like in halo 3 you are forerunner. At some point masterchief is going back in time to forerunner days. My opinion. this is a continuation of halo 3 an expansion. Also that obudsman thing could be they let the press see the game. I'm sure when we find out they will want coverage all over so a day or 2 before let the press in it fit in to what the obudsman stands for. Also the boxes are important. If it is an expansion it will be sold on disk and I bet thats also how you get the new maps a whole new disk. Seems odd to it ties to the fact that the new update lets you store games on the hard drive. Tell me what you think. I also believe the 6 new maps are both campaign and multiplayer levels hence the skulls in the update. And before you say why would they let the skull thing leak on the update, remember we were supposed to now all this already. but microsoft screwed that up. Oh and typed that one handed broke my other hand. So forgive the typos.


Sounds logical. This, at least, provides a second road this could follow, I must say. Good contribution, man. It could now be either of our theories. =P


i agree this is reasonable
Nice work XD

I would actually be disappointed if the game was based off of the fall of reach. If it was based during that time, then I'd rather play a story we don't know

In my opinion we will get another one at 7:07 PM PDT
Because there is a three day seperation between the KEEP IT CLEAN and PARDON OUR DUST posts

S1 doesn't mean Spartan 1. jeeeeeeeeeeez that is such a dumb thought. this makes more sense:

S1 (military), an administrative position within military units

S, for staff roles within headquarters of organizations commanded by a colonel or below (e.g., divisional brigades, regiments, groups, battalions, and squadrons; not used by all countries)

1, for personnel and administration

from wikipedia.

We need to tie in what bungies here for. To make money. Christmas is coming why not throw out an expansion capitalize off of your already built engine and team.

  • 09.24.2008 5:43 PM PDT

one querry i have though is the sandbox skull? because it is logical that the other skulls are for additional campiagn levels but a sandbox skull? that would lead you to belive that skulls arnt just going to be hid in campign.... right?

I think you are wrong on this one
Bungie, though they might like making money
Is here making games for our enjoyment
They aren't as greedy as you might think.

So, are we rulling this out? In my opinion, I think it is plausible, but that may be me craving some updated info.

Well each skull is tied to a level sandbox being one of them. Also how the hell did we kill all the flood whenthe ship crashed on earth. Freakin forerunner couldn't kill them all how did we contain them?Tthey were all over that city. Maybe its time to go back and clean up.

Don't believe this

Bungie wouldn't send this to one person and one person only.
