This apple is brown, and rotten. This orange on the other hand, is in relatively average shape. So the orange is definitely the preferable option. ----------You can't compare apples and oranges. You're so dumb.

Hopefully. The Elites sucked in Halo 2 and 3, though, just like the Brutes. I would like the Elites to return with a more Halo 1-esque feel (dodge more, more sturdy, sprint after you, throw grenades, etc.) and the Brutes to return as they were described in the novels. Tear you limb-from-limb if you're not careful.
I wouldn't go so far as to say they sucked in Halo 2, and 3. I thought both Halo 2, and Halo 3 were good games. But I largely agree that it would be a good thing if Elites returned, closer to their Halo: Ce incarnation, opposed to Halo 2s. I do however feel like Brutes were a big improvement in Halo 3, over Brutes and Elites. And the enemy behaviour in ODST seem to be a step forward also. So there atleast seems to me to be momentum in the right direction.
Did they really win? I believe that they came there for the Forerunner crystal... and they left empty handed. Who knows what would have happened if Truth got his hands on the intact artifact.
I don't think Truth cared weither it was in shards, or intact. He claimed it didn't really matter, that it would still serve its intented purpose.
I think the crystal , was an essential component in opening the portal to the Ark. And that was the only purpose Truth ever had for it. In Halo 3, the Forerunnership can be seen in the center of the gate. The platform its on, declines. And as the gateway activates, a single beam coming from the center of the gateway, seemingly through the Forerunnership fires into the sky. The beam gradually gets bigger, and bigger, and eventually the portal opens.
. So I think, there was probably some kind of chamber in the tip of the Forerunnership. Where the crystal shard was placed. And the gateway manipulated the shards power, to open a portal to the Ark.
