"We are green and very, very mean!" Buck, Halo 3: ODST

They did, they just weren't assigned to work with him. Also, in First Strike Isaac, Grace, and Li die and in ghosts of onyx Will and Kurt die.

Come check out the The Christian Halo Union. Whether you’re looking for fellowship, intelligent discussion, positive gamers, or maybe you just want to have fun, you'll find it with us. With over 650 members and counting, we're the most active Christian group on Bungie.net.

Technically speaking, if this turns out to be a prequel, Halo 3 will become Halo 4 -- much like the first three Star Wars episodes became IV, V, and VI when George Lucas created the prequels. That's not to say they're going to change the titles (obviously not), but you can still think of it as you would the fourth movie in a franchise.

Got pork?

You obviously haven't met my younger brother then.

Even though many reckon it's a prequel it could be a squad or something going to check it out AFTER Halo 3.

it is not halo 4 period, its the fall of reach which was before halo 1, but it could provide clues as to where MC is and what happened to red team

and lasem it says Halo: Reach Falls 2010

A MMO would be different..


There was going to be a Halo MMORPG but it was canned due to some of the gameplay features being too complex

On Halo Wars, don't you fight in the Battle of Reach?

Chronologically i think this how the halo games go:
Halo Wars, Reach, H1 , H2 and ODST, and H3

I think it would actually be:

Halo: Reach, Halo Wars, Halo CE, Halo 2, Halo 3: ODST, Halo 3

In The Fall of Reach, they meet the Covenant for the first time. While in Halo Wars, it starts off fighting the covenant.

OK I just looked it up on Wikipedia, The Fall of Reach takes starts in 2517, while Halo Wars takes place around 2531. So Halo: Reach is before Halo Wars


No the book story starts then, they meet The Covenant at Harvest.

Its the fourth game of the Halo series and it is a prequel so it is not Halo 4.

  • 06.04.2009 10:50 AM PDT

Bungie obviously lied. They said Halo ODST was their last Halo game they were working on, either way it sounds cool.

  • 06.04.2009 11:00 AM PDT

The pen is NOT mightier than the Enery Sword.

It takes place a few weeks before halo 1, so its like halo -1

The Battle of Reach takes place about 10 minutes before Halo 1. So quit arguing about it, and read the books already.

Considering you said yourself its set 10 minutes before Halo: CE therefore its a prequel.

For gods sake are you peaple insaine. halo reach has to take place during
HALO-first strike,i mean realy in the book all the spartans"exept the master chief and 7others"
go to the suface of reach to protect the M.A.C gun powerplants from the covonent ground force
and all but 5 die. the remaning spartans retrete to a large underground base. there thay find
dr.Halsey and a maseve mining tunel leadng to some fouruner ruins and thay then fined
a krystal that thay encreses a ships speed in slipspace but just then the covonent show up looking for the krystal but then the mastercheif comes in and rescues them then while escaping the planet in a covonent ship that the chief came in thay all escape into slipspace.
with the help from the krystal thay beat the covonent to a large covonent shipyard and kill
it. then after going into slipspace thay make it to ONYX. now if it bothers you that bad that you have to make a forum on it than just go read the damn book!

Oh and ther are 3 spartans other than the MC calld GRAY TEAM
thay were on a misson during the fall of reach and thay could not be recalld

for all mistakes im sory

for someone who doesn't spell "Covenant" right, you sure act like you know a lot.

The events of Reach occur before and after the events of Halo 1 (H1 only lasting 5 "days"). The battle for Reach ended, most of First Strike was about helping conclude the UNSC's presence on Reach - Halsey, Spartans, etc.

The Spartans on Reach were there for a while during MC's experience with Halo.

To whoever asked if Halo Wars takes place on Reach.
No. I think it's Harvest or after Harvest before Reach.

It's the halo 4 of multiplayer... but other than that, there's not much to say about halo: reach being halo: 4!
It's basicly the fourth full halo game in the series but not the fourth halo game in the halo universe.

I do not appreciate B.Net Group solicitation. If you ignore this and send me an invitation anyway, I will block communications with you.

It's the fourth full installment to the Halo franchise, but that doesn't make it a "Halo 4". In my opinion, the only way a Halo game could ever have the title of "Halo 4" was if it continued the Covenant onslaught on Humanity storyline, alongside the Flood infestation, and the doomsday threat of the Halo installations.

Since Bungie has confirmed that the mainstream portions of these three story arcs are done with, there will never be a Halo game titled "Halo 4". People unfortunately don't understand that that doesn't necessarily mean there won't be a continuation of Master Chief's and Cortana's stories after Halo 3.

In fact, Frank O'Connor confirmed at Emerald City that the Halo franchise would see Master Chief and Cortana return to the mainstream in the future, as they were not done with them, so there will be furtherance of the timeline... but it will not deal with the same things that the original trilogy dealt with. For all we know, an entirely new trilogy could begin.
