Sam=Dead and Chief never set foot on Reach while it was under attack.

Major holes in your theory there.


Yes he did. Right after he left the Halo he went to Reach.


Read it again, slowly.

Lol...infact Sam was the first Spartan to die by Covenant hands.


I still think he may be in the game, only for brief moments.
How can you not include one of John's best friends?

Good guess, but I believe this is the second class of Spartan-IIs because the tag numbers used on the trailer were over 150. Their were only 150 canditiates (meaning tags from 1-150) for the first class of Spartan-II 75 were trained 36 survived the augments. They can't be Spartan-IIIs because they have a letter before the numbers the tags mentioned didn't have letters. The letters repreasented the Spartans company. For example, G89 means the 89th spartan in Gamma company.

Sorry if I'm adding to much detail I just wanted to educate you on the Halo universe. I can't wait for this game.

instead of that spartan being sam maybe it is william-043? he did fight with fred during the battle of reach i believe

I wonder if this is gonna be the expansion to ODST?

  • 06.02.2009 5:50 PM PDT

so, like all of you, I want so badly to believe that these are the fabled Blue team of the great book The Fall of Reach. However, I believe that Bungie is taking this opportunity to try something new while also telling that particular part of the story the way they wanted to. Imagin with me for a moment. The book was NOT a Bungie written book. It does follow and is a part of the universe, but not particularly the universe seen from the eyes of Bungie's Halo video game franchise. So MY speculation is that they are going to tell it a little different perhaps, but it will be their version of the events. Second, the amazingly complex little silhouette that we are all examining with a magnifying glass fit to burn down an ant city. My thought is that perhaps as Bungie has said in the past, Master Chief's story arch was concluded with Halo 3 (as sad as I find that to be) and perhaps this is a new type of game from Bungie (remember all of the updates where they said that they were working on NEW game ideas and stories...) So, how about this...the figures pictured will be maybe...Spartan II class 2, or maybe Marines...but either way, what if Bungie is trying there hand at a game inspired by the biggest competition of theirs COD4. Or Return to Castle Wolfenstein of the original XBOX. What if each of those silhouettes is that of a certain class of playable character (left to right-heavy weapons, stealth, assault, close-range, sniper). To me, something similar to this line of thinking would fit perfectly with Bungie's repeated promise of something new and different, yet still falling within our beloved Halo universe. It would also open the door for some new game play mechanics from Bungie, and with them at the helm, I trust them with my favorite science fiction universe.

Yax is a shining beacon in these dark times. You should all strive to be more like Yax.

The first one almost looks like an elite, but that is impossible. Must just be a very bulky spartan.

  • 06.02.2009 6:03 PM PDT

all i have to say about the whole "elite"/"spartan" thing is that it very well could be a person in a modified MJOLNIR Mark 1, 2, or 3 armor. Keeping in mind that anyone could use those, and they could mount miniguns onto the armor itself. Reach had leftovers of at least Mark One armor, and even though Marks 4 and 5 were superior, if the Mark 1/2/3 were on reach, maybe someone decided to use it.

  • 06.02.2009 8:56 PM PDT

Yar-har!

That actually makes sense.

Yes, yes, we have heard before that there are different service tags in the trailer, but just relax, we don't know anything else about what's going on here besides what others have speculated.

An expansion, to an expansion. Thats retarded, no this is new.

Anyways, There is no such thing as a "class 2 spartan 2" or we would have heard about it. It's the same stuff from the book people, we know how it ends.

I am the president and the assassin

"Click clack blast em"

Second to the left is a bit short to be a Spartan dont you think?

But yes far right is definately Linda

Sc King Cobra

alright, buddy duffman had a very good point. When doctor hasely sent them into ONI castle base, they came back with experimental armor and weapons. She switched out the old for the new parts. So that may explain the spartanish figure on the far left.

  • 06.02.2009 9:21 PM PDT

i believe that there probly S-III spartan number is to big for the S-II

It is an elite because the knee structure looks exactly like an elite's and the arms.

no because the big one (possibly will) has the same armor as the rest.

I;m guessing the one on the far left is a new covenant species. It appears to have a tail, but then again it could be ammo for a chain gun?


OMG a dinosaur!

The left one looks like someone wearing mark III MJOLNIR armor, wielding a minigun

The next one appears to small to be a Spartan maybe an ODST, can't see a weapon

The last thee appear to be Spartans probably wearing mark IV MJOLNIR armor, Assault Rifle/Battle Rifle/Sniper Rifle

Halo 3 Academy Staff
RvB Episode 100- Sarge destroying computer Vic says "Whoa dude that was my Heat Sink now how the f*** am I going to sink my heat"

PETA: People for the Eating of Tasty Animals

Sam's dead he died in ~ 2525

but it could be a S1 or a guy in a pre Mark IV suit

but it does look like you would be right if apart from sam being dead (it does make sense with the height though)
