Actually she said "Brutes" not Bruce.


Im afraid you are wrong there.

This would be a prime opportunity to re-introduce Bruce (no rhyme intended) after he was cut from halo 2.

What's wrong with calling a Spartan Doogle?

He could be the guy that always messes things up, kind of like these MLG kids trying to get laid.

I think a spartan who 'always messes things up' is the problem.

Maybe I am wrong, but This is the video I found which is the Halo2 E3 2003 demo. At the time she says what you think of as "bruce", brutes drop down from a phantom right in front of you at 6:22.

It would make no sense for her to say "Bruce" rather than "Brutes" at that point in time.

But maybe I have the wrong video, and if it is, then please point me to the correct one.

Nah, I'm pretty sure she says Bruce.

I hope that's sarcasm, and if it is, I totally fell for it (Not Sarcasm).

It's pretty obvious, brutes drop down in front of you, she says Brutes.

I can't BELIEVE that no one's caught on to the guy speaking at the end of this trailer.

"This is Sierra (Spartan) 259."

Who's number is 259? Oh, that's right, BRUCE. THE GUY CUT FROM HALO 2.

BRUCE 259.

Fred, John, Kelly, Linda... Can't remember the rest... :P


And Sam, he is the big guy.

Maybe...

Sam died before Reach was invaded so maybe it's William.


Maybe this is pre-invasion and you play as a Spartan settling domestic disputes XD

  • 06.01.2009 7:40 PM PDT

I works Hard for de Monies, soo hard for me monies :P

Why is everyone forgetting Grace??? she was the one that carried the Lotus Anti Tank Mines and she died aboard the covenant docking station in the end of First Strike.

And what about Li and Anton???

I knew Bungie couldn't hold out much longer! They cut Spartan Bruce from Halo 2 for some reason, so how he gets his own game!

  • 06.01.2009 7:42 PM PDT

Cole, Baird (Lol I think it's a girl), Marcus, Dom, that rookie soldier with the helmet that doesn't let him see snipers. HAHAHA.

No,
Ok, serious face on.

Derrick, Rebecca, Adrian, Kristian, Church. Ohh yeahh.

Can't believe they are bringing Spartan Bruce back about time to if you ask me.

BRUCE 259.

I knew there was something I couldn't put my finger on....

I am ten times more stoked now. It was a real shame to see Bruce get the ol' heave ho back in 03. To see him back is the best news ever. Spartan Bruce is a name to remember, that's for sure.

You've found the secret prize signature. Send a PM to this account confirming your discovery of the prize signature to redeem your prize!

It's evident that BRUCE is Spartan 259.

B is the 2nd letter in the alphabet. 259
R is the 18th letter in the alphabet. 2 x 9 = 18
U is the 21st letter in the alphabet. 2 x9 = 18. 18 + 5 = 23. 23 - 2 = 21.
C is the 3rd letter in the alphabet. 5 - 2 = 3
E is the 5th letter in the alphabet. 259.

Coincidence? I think not.

Agreed. Finally, we'll get to see the history behind the greatest of the Spartans, Spartan 259 Bruce. If you thought he kicked as in the Halo 2 demo, just wait until you see him in this. The havoc that Bruce 259 is gonna wreak on the Covenant is going to be epic at the very least.

Dude, I practically -blam!- CRIED when I heard that they'd lynched him from the game. Honestly hope they get the same guy to do his voice as they did then!

Hope he still has his 'twist' in game dynamic they promised.

Hey guys, do you think this will be a full on reboot with Bruce? I mean, do you think they'll just forget about the story from the Trilogy, and give Bruce Cortana as he was meant to have her from the start?

I think that makes sense given that this is not Halo 4. It has its own separate naming sequence. even ODST is Halo 3: ODST. I think that this does point to them in fact doing a reboot of the series to how it should be.

No, it's them alright. Fred's Knife, Linda's Sniper, Kelly's small armor to allow her to run, Chief's assault rifle, and I'm not familiar with sam having a turret. But it has to be him.

Oh wait, that was him who died on the covenant vessel, it could be another spartan.

William. The far left is Will.
