Confound these ponies, they drive me to insomnia.

Also, Applejack ftw.

Alright. There is no time travel.

This takes place before the first Halo game. It's highly likely you will NOT play as master chief GET OVER IT.

With all this spartan 259 and bruce deal... You'll probably play as him. During the reach conflict, BEFORE halo.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Bruce is just people who misheard the demo video. The marines say "Grunts, down low!", Cortana says "Brutes!!", and the picture of the Spartan on the back of the Gauss hog is a picture of MASTER CHIEF (note that the reticule showed you that the PLAYER was in the back.)

So THAT'S what people are saying!

Well, you'll probably still run around as who ever this 259 guy is.

Ah... no. I'm pretty sure Cortana said "Bruce" seeing as that's his name. For those with the silly notion that she said "Brutes", I can only say that that you are the ones who've sadly misheard things. The rest of us know the truth.

Edit: As for playing as the Master Chief, that's still a toss up depending on which direction the game takes.

I think that's right, plus this isn't Back to The Future (no matter how awesome it may be), do you see a De Lorean around here!?

i think to generally say we maybe as the master cheif or bruce or it might be that generally bruce is just significant to the storie

*Brain explodes, but sadly rebuilds.*

Dude, John is MC's name. Okay?

Apparantly i was wrong! you WILL play as Master Chief! With the spartans from the Reach novel.

Which is canon.

Someone uh... Close the thread please? Mis-speculation.

Oh yeh, it's just that Master Chiefs role in the game won't be the same as everybody else's because supposedly he wasn't on Reach, but eventually went down there and met up with his comrades to help fight, but then fled when it got way out of hand.

Mors Janua Vitae

If Bungie takes the game in the direction of the book, there were plenty of Spartans on the planet to choose from for the game. Master Chief was part of one team, out of four, on Reach at the time.
