I'm sure the game will feel new and exciting even to those who have read the novels (which I did).

Don't worry so much, it should be amazing :)

I'm the cult of personality,
I call it like i see it, if i feel the need to be blunt and to the point, then i will, if i feel the need to be very detailed, i will, im here to stay and im here to do things my way, if you respect that or not is your choice, not mine,
and don't worry, while i don't agree with everyone's opinion, i do respect everyone's opinion.

nope /thread

Following this logic, nobody would play all the WWII shooters because we all know that the allies are going to kick Naz! butt. And yet those are still pretty dang successful.

Sure, we know how the battle of reach as a whole worked out. But we don't know what it felt like to be on the ground as the planet was glassed through the eyes of a soldier, a super soldier, but even still someone who can't stop the death that is to come despite his power. Making the most of that time and doing the most damage is what its all about.

See what I did there? Doesn't that sound interesting? Reach will be awesome. We have never seen multiple spartans in combat outside of Halo Wars, and that was CGI. Seems like you are a spartan in a squad of five with nothing left to lose and everything to gain. Should be crazy ass fun.

People want this because they know what will happen. They want to see the awesome action during the the Battle of Reach and all the Spartans fighting alongside each other.

Your guide to everything Halo: Halopedia

Everyone also knew that New Mombassa was glassed in the time between Halo 2 and 3, yet they seemed quite content with the storyline. Prequels actually give a writer a truly interesting opportunity as they now get to tell you exactly how things ended like they did. Sometimes it is worth finishing the book, or movie for those who don't read anymore, even if you know how its going to end. Even if it is simply to know how everything came together.

Well then you need to get over the Halo 3 ending. 343 Industries might carry that on and tell us what happens but for now you need to forget about it like everyone us.

Bungie is leaving the fate of Chief up to some other developer. Simply put, they don't want to create "The Adventures of Master Chief and Cortana" as he travels the galaxy kicking butt and trying to find his way back home.

It would get montomous, and kinda lame.

They are washing their hands of his fate so some other game developer can screw it up if they dare.

I am very much excited for this game because it will give us a hands on experience with what happened to Reach and any events surroudning it. Personally I like the main story behind the Halo seris and this will give me a visual and playable insight into the events of Reach instead of words. So DO NOT speak as if your the voice of the community shown here 'do somethig they all know we want' as many this is a two sided thing and many people would either want or not want this game produced, not just the one side you have displayed.

As for the fate of Master Chief he is shown heading towards a strange planet/structure and this game could maybe display this planet and give depth to what it prior to the events of Master Chief venturing towards it is. This just leaves us to assume what has happened to him unless Bungie decide to make another game portraying his fate (but they have said they are not making any more games for the Halo seris) or 343 Industries continue on the story.

i actully have a theory for what bungie could do to conclude master chiefs quest....
ok what could happen is the ship could crash land on THE FORUNNER PLANET and the game could be about you(chief) and cortana trying to well get off the planet...
it might sound a liitle lame at first but think about it the game could explore the forrunners even more and the creations of halo we could know so much more..it would be so cool...and im just throwing this out but mayber it could take a diffirent approach n be n open world game not like oblivion but more like i dunno crysis maybe half life... it might sound stupid at first bungie could do somthin they can do anything right

Does it really matter that you know what happens at Reach? If it bothers you that much then do not buy it.

I agree, Im exited for Reach too but I would rather see the Chief's fate.

I understand the way you feel but it by no means is a waste. I remember reading the fall of reach and wondering what it would be like if it was a game and how awesome it would be.

I really wish we knew chiefs fate after H3 as well. Bungie says Reach will be its last Halo game. Don't let those words fool you. It doesn't mean chief won't be in another game that doesnt involve the Halo rings. Making such a title inapropriate

Actually, most Halo fans DON'T know about Reach. As our majority is now consistent of pre-pubescent multiplayer fanboys.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

HAH, you will never know, that's the point it's the big mystery ending to the mystery character. You can never know.

Also, this game could tell a story completely different than what we read in the books. It could be about DIFFERENT Spartans than just Red Team.

blarg.

Hey this is going to be awesome! Not really such a waste of time.

  • 10.07.2009 2:51 AM PDT

I wish I was still legendary.

Frankie has said it will not be a direct prequel. This means it cannot follow anything we already know about Reach as the main story. It's about something on Reach we have never, ever seen or been told about before. NOT the Fall of Reach with the forerunner crystal leading into first strike, but something else. Something equally important but not related to the chief's story.

  • 10.07.2009 3:04 AM PDT

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

I for one hate the chief, i'm glad that he's been pushed aside.

  • 10.07.2009 3:20 AM PDT

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

Just because it's a prequel it's poitless? I don't see where you got that from, it's going to epic. I do agree I would rather know what's up with Master Cheif, though.
