Subject: The game will most likely be based on the book.

The game will most likely BASED on the book but the middle part of the game will be something we have never seen before. In the banner above there are five Spartans. In the book each Spartan had his or her specialty such as sniping and heavy guns. In the pic each Spartan is holding a different weapon, such as a sniper and chain gun. Plus in the video this appears to be the scene when the cov are trying to take out the orbital defenses. This lays the ground work to the book but not the details.

Subject: Who says this game is based on the book? It most likely is.

If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

Time travel is not possible. Master Chief is lost somewhere between earth and the Ark.


Wow.... just wow. Seriously if you want to make a theory or whatever make sure you play the games, and you read the books (none of that "i read the books about 5 years ago while i was high and dont remember anything" crap).

Nope. Not when you are just saying random nonsense and have your facts all messed up. That's why these forums are full of 5000 topics of theories that on the second sentence all fall apart. Those same topics are the ones that drown the decently made, ones that are backed up with facts.

If it was based on what we know about the Spartans on Reach, then it would be boring as hell. We would get about 4 missions max. Or it would be something with virtually no story, spanning numerous POVs, so you can't connect to any single character.

I think that we will play in a new adventure, as Spartans from Beta Team (the only team which could have included a combat-effective Spartan-259 or -320), which would not have been in contact with Fred, Kelly, etc. once they left the generators.

"If marijuana is not legal within the next five years I have no faith left in humanity, period. Everyone likes smoking weed. They have for thousands of years. They're not going to stop anytime soon. You know? It makes everything better. Makes food taste better, makes music better. It makes sex feel better for God's sake. It makes -blam!- movies better you know?"

I only counted 3 topics like this today. Anyone get more?

True, I should probably read the books again. I totally forgot that there were different teams of Spartans on Reach.

It could also be from the point of view as one of the Marines. I seem to remember a part where after the huge attack there was still a group of marines alive who were trying to escape the cov and were save by spartan/s.

I should stop talking until I go read the book again.

Yeah, re-read the beginning of First Strike, it details the real fall of Reach (HaloL The Fall of Reach only details the first 15 minutes of the space fight)
