Subject: The planet in Reach is the same as in Halo 3

There is an even bigger question then Pirates or Ninjas?

Master chief or Metroid Prime?

At the end of Halo 3 (Legendary ending) Master Chief approaches a planet that lights up. If you pause it at the right moment you can see some landmass on the planet.
In the teaser for Halo: Reach the landmass looks exactly the same when paused at the right moment.
To see the comparison go to this link.
If you look closely you can see the outline of the landmass...

Nothing is better than gaming through the day, into the night, then back into the day. It's like when you finally push that power button you feel like you've accomplished nothing, but at the same time, you can't stop smiling.

I was thinking of saying you were wrong but I think you might have something here. Reach was glassed so it's possible that the planet at the end of Halo 3 is it because it didn't look like a regular planet.

I can barely even see the land on the H3 pic, but from what it seems they look nothing alike.

Man I saw that too, it's pretty similar. Only problem is where's the defense grid?

  • 06.01.2009 8:30 PM PDT

yeah thats what i thought

  • 06.01.2009 8:31 PM PDT

I really wish you were right.. but the planet the chief crashed into looked forerunner-ish when the right amount of lighting is applied. It looks pretty artificial in Halo 3.

hell or 6 feet under pushin daisys i can go on all day oh and BOOM BOOM

In the Teaser for Halo: Reach you do see similar shapes to that that light up.
Another thing is the broken frigate (split in two)
I think its a reference to the ship in Halo 3.
Also some of the things said over the radio are also a tad suspect

Hello.

First Reach then the next game will be the return to Reach as the Chief at least 50 years after the events of Halo 3.

That's my prediction.

What would be on Reach while MC is there is beyond me though.

Reach is with in the galaxy, if you play through halo 3 cartographer level you'll notice that 343 shows them that they are outside of the galaxy, so no its not the same planet.

They made into the portal back to the galaxy, notice how the arbiter made it back to earth (which I believe is in the galaxy) Think before you post.

Remember what Cortana said? They were traveling through the portal as it went out.
They were probably something like half way between The Ark and Earth....
Could be time travel? Or as you said.. a new threat..... Or the covenant (remainder of what is left angry that you have killed their leader!)

OMG Look closely

You are wrong.. The shape you are seeing is the landmass just bellow the lake..
Look closely!

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

That planet is not Reach since the Master Chief is not even in our galaxy at the end of Halo 3.

But he is.. He went through the portal as it collapsed. he was probably somewhere half way between The Ark and Earth... As he escaped the Halo firing..

The problem with this is that at the end Sierra(A Spartan) 259 said that the spartans had come. Spartan 259 was in (I think but now I'm not sure because I looked it up on Halopedia a few hours ago but when I just now looked at it again it's saying something different that kinda makes sense) the Fall of Reach.

I think I'm going to have to reread that book....again :)

It would have to be time travel or something.. We dont fully understand the physics of Slip space and maybe the Halo firing accelerated the ship or something.... Or it effected how the ark's portal worked??
Maybe....

That may be true, but the top picture is to dark for me to see.
