Its just a theory, but for the people who have read the book john is on the orbital platform, and that might be the object when the planet surface is hit. But then do I hear John's voice when there are loads of voices saying 'we need evac' or 'we're being overrun'. Any thoughts?

This would be a good time to point out that the US Government seriously did consider nuking the moon during the Cold War as a show of force. Project A119.

"A large explosion on the Terminator line would put the sun behind the mushroom cloud, making the explosion visible with the naked eye from Earth."

Then the US decided they'd just send in Neil Armstrong to land on it. Neil Armstrong - the one man on the earth that was considered a suitable replacement for a nuclear missile.

I just listened to the whole thing multiple times, and it does sound like MC's voice at 0:44. Listen to the words "Oh, my god."

THIS DOES NOT MEAN HE WENT BACK IN TIME!!!

Don't forget MC was younger when the Covenant attacked, he wasn't the seasoned soilder he was in the later games... In the later games he had already killed and seen lots of Covenant... Of course he would sound the same, only because they have "The bodies of olympic athletes" and such. Going back in time = Impossible, he was going toward either Onyx or the now destroyed Reach.

You do realize that he had been in the war for 27 years before the battle of Reach, right? He is plenty seasoned.

When people see something they have never seen before they will always be shocked, to some extent. John was killing and fighting innies, and I don't remember if he had been fighting covenant before that. Hell, I'm sure seeing the mere size of a Covenant ship would scare anyone... I think the design would also be intimidating.

He can't go back in time impossible, and he can't be going towards onyx or reach because if he's outside the galaxy he can't be going towards either. If you listen on 'The Ark' level 343 says 'we're 25 million light years from the galactic center' So MC can't be heading towards Reach or Onyx.

Sigma Octanus was before Reach. Multiple Spartans fought on Sigma Octanus. Also, when Spartans made their first contact, I'm pretty sure that's when Sam died. He got hit by a Jackal's plasma pistol, burning away his armor. When he realized he would be killed if he left the ship, he decided to stay back and hold the Covenant off while the others escaped.

Then it must have been a Marine who said "Oh my God." I have to reread FoR I've been looking for it everywhere and can't find it! Oh well... I guess I have Contact Harvest and The Cole Protocol to read... My buddie borrowed my others... except Reach... where is that one?

Also [off the topic] there is a ring above the planet on the top right near the beginning of the trailer. If its the mc someone else is playing his voice because it doesn't sound like steve downes.
I've actually finished reading 'ghosts of onyx' the spartan III's were seasoned younger than 15 because of the improved augmentation process. Spartan II's probably seasoned later because of the insecure augmentation process.
