"From the beginning,
You know the end"
Honestly I have reason to believe this will be a Marathon remake.
Everything adds up for Marathon to be a sequel to Halo and the quote is a huge hint in my theory's favor.
Any Thoughts?

As a great man has said before "..." That is where the truth lies my friends

Yes, It says Halo right on the teaser, no way in hell its Marathon, I'm pretty sure that would be a groundbreaking news story at B.Net.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

They are referring to the beginning as the book Halo: Fall of Reach, and the End as Halo 3.

Well it's pretty clear there was a lot of Marathon influence, and Bungie makes Marathon references throughout Halo. Don't think they'd link the two universe-wise though.

I've been here A WHILE. sneaking,creeping,hiding. Don't let levels ever fool you, I will put you in the ground.


The number on my gamertag is a 4 but it should now be a 6 =O

P.S- Be respectful and play nice!

Well Spartans are mentioned in the trailer and it is called "reach"

NO, We know the end because if you read the books "Fall of Reach" and "First Strike" you will know everything about Reach.

It can be a remake with a different title!
Plus we have the ship headed towards the planet!
Remember the end of Halo 3

Thanks for choosing to whine over being a productive member of the community and possible element towards advancing Reach.

Bungie wouldn't do a remake of Marathon and call it Halo.

That's like calling an orange an apple.

Marathon was Bungie's first big game!

there is no proof it has to do with the book and if they are both the same universe why not call it halo?

hell it has nothing to do with marathon...! ok!? it's about freakingmaster chief falling into reach or.. about the raid of reach or the battle of reach who knows but it has nothing to do with marathon! Marathon= security officer if you hear the dialogs and read halopedia you'll know it's the planet reach and you can hear we have spartans on the ground beside "this is sierra 259" referring to spartan 259. Have you ever seen a god damn spartan in marathon?... NOOOOO! OK¿? IT'S HALO Does that answer your question?

Halo: Fall of Reach (Novel) = Halo: Reach (Video Game)

The story of how John becomes Master Cheif,
story of his Spartan Squad, how he first meets Cortana,
and the very epic battles between The Covenant and The UNSC at Reach.
The book covers a lot of information which leads up right to the biggining of Halo: CE

Does not have to be the book.
Yes i know it is halo!
What I am trying to say is Halo=Marathon.
Check the facts between the end of Halo 3 and the Beginning of Marathon.
They all add up!
The games even mention things about each other!

Also cant be about book.
Look at silhouettes.
Realize what im saying.

Elite.
One of them is an Elite.
Why in the hell would an Elite be standing next to Spartans if it was before Halo:CE
