Never use a hatchet to remove a fly from your friends face. - Chinese proverb

Alright, I know its a prequel but people have been fighting over whether your gonna be playing as chief and all that stuff, I was wondering if it is possible that it is about one of the spartan squads before halo 1, or does that contradict with what the books said, I wouldn't know I haven't read them. Someone may have already figured this out and said something about it but I haven't been reading much of the forums due to all the trollin' goin on. Will someone give me their opinion or knowledge?

Yea thats what I'm thinking, I think it is a spartan squad on reach, the people in the picture look to big to be normal humans.

The book Halo Reach is indeed about the origins of the Spartan II. read all about it here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo:_The_Fall_of_Reach

Read the books if you want to delve into it completely. Should be a blast!!

I think it may be an RPG where you play as John when he was a boy and follow his life as he becomes Master Chief...time will tell.

If somebody's opinion is being smashed and nobody's helping, I try and help. I use logic and extensive vocabulary (and sometimes self-destructive circular reasoning) to confuse my enemies into submission. Fear me, trolling, fapping creatures of the night. For I. Am your worst nightmare.

It is an FPS. It is based on a squad of spartans but has no squad based tactics. It most likely takes place during the Fall of Reach.

If you watch enough ODST junk from GTTV, Geoff asks about Reach. All Staten says that it is a FPS, it takes place during The Fall of Reach. Also he says it is based on a squad of Spartans, but it is NOT a squad based shooter.

RIP Halo 2: November 9, 2004-May 10, 2010
I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

I've read the book. The planet Reach, The UNSC's main military planet, gets glassed and destroyed by the covenant. The spartans are were the last hope for Reach. Which i'm guessing will be the main plot of the game.
