Subject: Marines in banner?

THEORY*

Is it just me, or do the silhouettes look like marines. I think that all of the people in the silhouettes are marines, except on the far left. Also if you look the shoulders stick out way more than i've ever seen any mjolnir armor stick out. The only one who is a spartan (i believe) is the on on the far-left because of the shape of his helmet, as well as the turret he is carrying. Also something appears to be attached to the side of the other helmets, which i believe is something similar to the things marines had in halo CE (looks like a scouter from dragonball Z) I'd like to hear what people think about this.

IGNORE THE DAMN GAMERTAG! It's my brother's. Feel free to spam him with messages. >:)

We don't know who they all are yet, but they're definitely not marines...

Why can't they be marines? They're using ODSTs in Halo 3: ODST really the only other ground troop we've seen that I dont think we've played as are standard marines.

I am made of win and god.

If you look at the top banner, you can see the first one looks like a sangheili.

THEIR ALL SPARTANS. Why would an elite be with 4 humans when they were at war during reach....

look at the top of the far left helmet. it looks like a mjolnir helmet because of the indent in the center of that overhanging part on a mjolnir helmet. Plus hes way taller than the rest of them. At most i'd say the middle and far left are spartans. the rest dont look like it to me.

I am gonna go ahead and put this out there if it has not already been done. Those are Marines. Accept a Arbiter. Yes folks that is the Arbiter at the far end. Or horrible weird Spartan armor.

Sangheli physical appearance. Most notable by the legs and waist&legging armor. Though what makes me think its Arbiter armor is the protruding piece on the shoulder.

As for story-line. Well seeing trailer. I think Bungie played Halo Wars are like K-tnx but no plox. Now their making their own version thats first person or like ODST style.

Anyway, I really think that thats a marine squad with a spartan for backup. Also maybe you could switch back and forth between spartans and marines in different missions?

Received my Recon 7/7/2009 for First Game in Bungie vs The World.

I was thinking this too, it's reasonable, and I'm getting a bit tired of this"IT'S GOT TO BE SPARTANS BECAUSE THE TITLE SAYS REACH!" stuff. But as several people have said already, we don't know until more information is given.

Keep it Clean.

Far left looks so much like Arby.

  • 06.09.2009 5:28 PM PDT

What do you people think, anyone else think it could be marines+1spartan?
