I was just thinking about the elites in Halo 2 and how different they look in Halo 3. Personally, despite the different armour customizations for them in Halo 3, I preferred how they looked in Halo 2; they were much taller, much grander looking, they just looked stumpy in Halo 3.

So which would you rather see in Halo: Reach? Or would you rather see the original Elites return?

Also, the return of Honour Guard elites would be nice as well, but that's a tale for another day...

Because the game is out in 2010, I hope we get elites looking like Halo Wars... But ingame not cutscenes.

Yeah for real, didn't think of the Halo Wars ones; but since that wasn't made by Bungie they would probably want their own artists to customise the elites, methinks.

Honor guards, coming in en masse. or Elites with dual swords and maybe the Arbiter to add some spice to the game.

But there was no Arbiter during the events of Reach. We won't be taking out a prophet, so Honor Guards are out of the question. Councilors stay on High Charity, so they are out, too.

More important than all of this, now that I think about it; I have a fever and the only prescription is Wort Wort Wort.

it depends on when the game takes place.
if it also covers the events of first strike, then we might see a prophet (one could have landed on the planet to ensure the forerunner artifacts were the one they needed, and of course he had his personal guards with him).
there were 300+ ships during the attack... there MUST have been at least one prophet in that armada.

The Halo CE ones were super smart on Legendary, and they didn't speak English. They've got my vote.

The ones on Halo 2 always seemed pretty smart, leaping over boxes and what not; smarter than the Halo 3 Brutes much of the time to be honest...
