weve established our theories, agreed with others and disagreed with others
i myself have been a staunch opponent of the time travel theory but i may need to eat my words.
in the book First Strike, Dr Halsey talks about how she may have disturbed the space time continuum, thus "doesnt know which time she belongs in"

this is the only instance, backed up by the mysterious gravity and time warping crystal she and the spartans, in which time bending is intergrated, but more than likely just fro dramatic effect, as it doesnt really play much of a part other than that.

what im saying is, because the slipspace portal is foreruner in origin and because they arived over 524 thousand lightyears from the galaxy in an instance may have had some temporal anomalies involved, but not for the Reach game

weve near established that the legendary ending planet is not reach, but rather onyx, but the date of onyx's activation puts it pretty much smack on top of halo 3s timeline

this is the wild speculation part and hopefully will help disperse all time travel theories for reach from now on

i think that Chiefs half of dawn did enter the slipspace portal, but only just, as arbiters half left, the portal collapsed, and sent chiefs half tumbling through the null void, and dumped it near onyx, years into the future, all passed in mere seconds, which would explain why it looks finished, but not terraformed

thats as close as i'll get to a time travel theory, please use this when your thinking of using a time travel theory, as it hopefully disproves it

a preemptive sorry for any errors in my theory here, hope they arent too bad

maybe, as far as i know and not to toot my own horn, this is the only theory involving time that makes some sense, think about it, onyx activated, and the planet split into trillions of sentinels. how long would it take to rebuild everything the way it was and activate everything? and then teraform a whole planet? answer: a very long time, so how does it look so finished? dr halseys little excursion through the continuum and the unkowable qualities of a forefunner transluminal portal help explain it

and yes, i want chief to find his fellow spartans on onyx too, and meet the new SIIIs :)

And then the spartan II's own the III's and teabag them just for the sake of it.

Wild speculation thread? <Ignores OP>

I believe that Halo Reach will feature a Guitar Hero segment where you have to battle it out with an Arbiter in order to rock his socks off which he needs to fight you with as we all know part of the Arbiter uniform is super secret fusion powered socks which power the Arbiter's shields, active camo, plasma weapons, etc.

After leaving the Arbiter to put his socks on you battle to the city of Purple where you meet Chewbacca and get to see him rip the arms off Brutes who were trying to fit into his city.

After helping him, the Chief finds Candy Mountain, get's his kidney stolen and has to be careful about what he drinks until he gets back to space to get a replacement. He battles onward towards the winsauce of doom & win.

The chief finally reaches the winsauce but then realises that he can't drink it because he's down to 15 kidneys instead of his usual and require 16 <from the augmentation process of the Spartan II program> and so he screams in anger.

He then remembers that he can just carry it with him back to The Woo Hoo!, the UNSC cruiser and drink it after he gets a replacement kidney.

The game ends and the credits roll.

After the credits you see a ghost of a spartan that then creates a cliffhanger by saying "The-" before the game ends!

yes, but how can the writer know hte future of the halo storyline? or maybe they'll get around it by saying that mendez dies somehow in the sphere....who knows
and you, mr flamer, WTF? why flame? its wild speculation because its employing theory that is, strange, wierd and all that other stuff, all of this is wild speculation as noone knows anything for certain. so mind yourselfwhen you decide to call someone out or act re****ed
