wherever i look for information about Halo:Reach i hear the same old stuff. That reach is based on the book fall of reach. but the question i ask that i cant seem to find the awnser to is who actualy said this? so i decided to look up some info for myself. and it turn out that the covenant captured(to my knowledge)...not destroyed reach in august 2552. And there is nothing written (again, to my knowledge) in the Halo universe past november 2552. and if ive done my maths right thats 3/4 months diffrence between each other. So heres another theory. what if there were spartans remaining on reach in hiding and waiting to attack. and the new game is about brining some ALIVE spartans back into the universe, as one could start to get boring and leave not much room for expansion of the universe. Forgive me if im wrong as i havn't read the books........but if i am right remember that you probably heard it here first. As i have not heard it anywhere else. which seems like alot of people believe everything they read.
