Subject: **THEORY** Halo REACH is about Halo: First Strike (spoilers!)

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

I couldn't agree more. Anything to do with being on the surface of Reach took place in First Strike. I'm really hoping defending the generators comes into play, and anything else that expands upon it. It was one of the stories in First Strike that was barely covered and makes sense for a game.

We stand here and fight!
Any enemy that stands in our way we will grind them into dust, and continue our march to glorious salvation. We fight...till the last man. Never give up....never.

I honestly would like bungie to make a game in this part of the halo universe because in the games you jump way ahead of the story then from the books, but if bungie made reach in this aspect it will explain the story to gamers who want to know more about the halo universe like myself and presumably other halo players.

On a side note everyone talking about those "spartans" 259 and 320 I don't think they're spartans III's because the spartans III's were never on planet reach...they trained and stayed on planet onyx.

I've been thinking the same thing for ages. I really didn't think it would be fun at all to play as the Chief in this sequence, I always thought that it's more going to be about Red Team from the drop possibly all the way to the battle on Unyielding Heirophant.

I certainly hope so. It would be amazing.

Definitely... I would like to see some elements from the novels (debrief on the PoA, load-up in the PoA, Red Team's hot-drop onto Reach, Move to the generators, Defense of the generators)... but after that, I would like a new perspective, filling in the details of 5 of the 14 nameless Spartans whose fate has not yet been shown... yet

-blam!- the Free World!!!!

Okay, you people are taking this way to seriously. Don't you think that it might be based on the whole book, not just the end? I mean, who wouldn't want to see Chiefs face as a kid? And with all the talk on Natal, why not?

Here is some quotes directly from the Spartan-II page on Halopedia as proof.

it is cited on page 46 that there are 75 children on board a pelican for a training mission, however on page 47 it states that there were 67 children on the training mission out of 75 that were originally on board. No mention is made of the whereabouts of the missing 8.

Then, later on the page:

Bungie, along with Eric S. Trautmann, have said that these discrepancies only seem to be errors and that everything will be made clear in time.


Meaning that the game will probably clear things up...

No... that would make for a poor story (too much jumping around in time) and horrible gameplay (too inconsistent, you go from a 6 year old kid pushing around classmates on a hill to a 7 foot tall super soldier?)

Meaning that the game will probably clear things up...Highly doubt it. It more likely means that in a future Nylund (or other author) novel, it will be cleared up. Maybe the members of Spartan BLACK are 4 of the 8 missing.

I don't want to see chief's face as a kid....I want to see the grown up spartan, that's be cool to me

As solid a theory as ever a theory goes with this little information. It is absolutely a possibility, and I would look forward to it being a reality.

But the question still stands... what about the time travel? I don't see anything about the time travel in your theory!

It's not a proper Halo: Reach Forum theory unless there's time travel.
