This game will take place before Halo 1 not after Halo 3.
The game will be about the last stand that the Spartans made before the fall of Reach which was planet that housed a major human military installation.
This is unless they try to pull some time warp brouhaha which is unlikely because Bungie has no need to mess up the space time continuum on purpose.
The tag line for the Reach game is "Halo Reach, Falls 2010"
In the trailer it tells you that you know how the game will end before it begins
and it mentions spartans on the ground. Well in Halo 1 we know for certain that there is only one spartan left so this game must take place before Halo 1. Based off the title of the game we can be relatively certain that is a representation of the historic battle described in the book "The Fall of Reach".
In the Fall of Reach, about half the Spartans were sent to the ground to do battle and all of them died, in fact even the ones not sent to the ground were eventually killed in another mission and only the Chief and Cortana are able to survive long enough to get to the Pillar of Autumn. If I had to bet my money then this game "Reach" is going to be about the Spartans who didn't make it back and the final battles they had before the planet was destroyed.
Stop all this conjecture that it takes place after Halo 3 or that it even has anything to do with Halo 3 at all.....From the images we have seen so far, it looks like there will be 5 Spartans including the Chief and we know that four of them will be dead by the end of the game.
The fall of reach is a prequel, not so far back as the forerunner or anything like that but definitely before Halo 1. You would know this if you read the first book in the Halo series.
1. Where is your proof, for all we know its set on Reach after Halo 3, no-one knows where it is set.
2. By the end of Halo 3 there are more than 7 SPARTAN II's and several squads of SPARTAN III's, you obviuosly haven't read the books.
