What if Reach takes place in an alternate reality? Possibly, the space/time continuum altering crystal on Reach has created this reality and transported you into it. You could do things that would normally contradict the Halo timeline. Imagine using the crystal to alter space and time, outwitting the Covenant and taking back Reach.

so you'd create a game that's not related to any other games... and that'll not have any kind of sequels....

not good, marketing wise.

and story wise... even worse >.<

I suppose that you didn't like the new Star Trek , either? And it does have an ability to become a sequel; you could try and defeat the Covenant using the crystal, or try to get back to your old reality.

haven't even seen it tbh.

there can't be ANY sequels to it. why?
"Halo Reach 2 : Reach didn't fall after all, lol!"
"Halo CE AR : Like HCE, but in a bit different!"
"Halo 2 AR : not the invasion of Earth"
"Halo 3 AR : don't finish the fight... it's another reality"


see my point?
we'd have the "regular" halo game in the existing storyline... and a second storyline?

Taking back Reach and beating the Covenant with the crystal? Eh too late covenant lost war why go back and rewin? Also storyline wise it would be terrible.
