Subject: My Take On Halo Reach

So after seeing the video and discussing what exactly the book meant and gathering information online

I read somewhere that Halo Reach is basically a spartan only journey indicating that this chapter of the series will not see humans...anyway my summary

The entire Halo series stemming from Combat Evolved we basically played the end of Halo with the first Halo hence the quote "From the beginning you know the end" in Halo Reach you play as Spartans on a Mission to secure a stable landing zone for master cheif or basically find him and secure him safely but fall into a battle with the covenant, YOU PLAY BEFORE HALO COMBAT EVOLVED TOOK PLACE. Master Cheif being in a cryogenic chamber locked away and being reawakened in combat evolved....If the humans are still at war with the covenant that would mean that the covenant on that side of the galaxy never knew the war had ended....

At the end of Halo 3 you see Master Cheif sealing himself away......the planet that you see before the video ends is the planet you see when Reach begins....Halo Combat Evolved started just after the planet Reach was destroyed by the covenant


I never read any of the books but from what it seems this might be the concept of the game

Combat Evolved begins with the Pillar of Autumn exiting hyperspace after having just left a destroyed Reach. There was a large battle on Reach with Spartans and Humans alike and MC was doing some fighting at the space station above the planet, but sadly it seems like he won't be the main character. that's my opinion at least.

I don't know about mc bein the main character but i think he will at the very least be in this game sine it takes place on reach the training grounds of the spartans. oh and i bet sony's probably crappin there pants right about now at the news of another halo game :)
