Awesomeness would ensue.

Please tell me we'll be getting something in Halo Reach that is nearly equivalent to what Jason Jones so vaguely described on the Halo 3 Legendary Edition Cutscene Commentary.

Personally, I also think we need someone strapping a bomb to another character's back and shoving them down a hole as well.


Thoughts? Opinions? Bungie always says that they come up with great ideas, fail to implement them the first time and save them for a later date. ODST is proof of that as it begins with the ODST drop featuring windows to look out of in first person. They said they wanted to do it for Halo 2's ODST drop and look where its ending up.

Anyone else think a Forerunner Tank with weapons, small windows and lots of lights being assaulted by Covies sounds awesome?

A Forerunner tank would definitely have to hover/float with mystical technologies and truly be capable of massive energy projectiles. Something that could burn a hole through the strongest armor plating and shielding of any space-going intergalactic species.

"We sleep peaceably in our beds, because rough men stand ready to visit violence upon those that wish to do us harm."

"Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of all those who threaten them."

Forerunner tank should definitely be included. Hell make a new game revolving around Forerunner tank.

Speaking of the legendary edition, does anyone know how well the legendary halo 3 sold? I would love to see another helmet of the orginal sparten aromor to go with the halo 3 helmet or an elite helmet.

Proud frenchie, elite fan, anthro artist not hellbent on yiff convention/pics/whatever, mature and intelligent forum guy, 4chaner, halo 2 lover and halo 3 hater.

it would be cool indeed.

but humans were no aware of forerunners until late in the covie/human war... so it'd break the storyline.
don't hold your breath for it.

Eh...ONI may have known about certain things and technically humanity does discover the items that the Spirit of Fire found.

Judging by Cortana's reaction to the Forerunner Technology on Halo, they must have known a bit. Furthermore, in the Reach timeline, if they progress into the section on Halsey and her Spartans in ONI's CASTLE base..we could potentially see some Forerunner Tank action as they go for the crystal...

Phoenix is dead, long live Phoenix!
Is it?

Wasn't the Enforcer the Forerunner equivalent of a tank?

It sold out in NZ, I got the last one available... Taught me not to forget to pre-order stuff.

Pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo

Wow, random fact. I just re-watched all those Halo and Halo 2 cinematic movies today (with commentary) and remembered the Forerunner-Tank thing. Just weird.

This thread is so much win.

However, will not happen in Halo: REACH.

It's in the Halo 3 Legendary Edition. Buy it and watch.

Forerunner tank should definitely be included. Hell make a new game revolving around Forerunner tank.
They'd have to call it Halo: Forerunner Tank. Synopsis: awesomeness ensues.

I don't think we'll see Forerunner Tank in Halo: Reach. Halo: Reach will, hopefully, have little to actually do with the Forerunner. Another story with more relevance should have it, definately. But not Halo: Reach.

Ah, don't crush the dream. There is forerunner tech on Reach...there is a possibility. You never know hahaha.

Also...the Sentinel enforcer is not a substitute for Forerunner tank. Thats an insult.
