I swear if they mess up my halo books with this game i shall forsake haloness... the fact theres more spartans is always good but if halsley and that part of the storyline is non existant ill be dissapointed. I mean how long must i wait for the books and the games to meet? granted halo wars had the timeline stuff that practically quoted the book series but i feel the most important parts of the halo storyline were sidestepped to avoid confusion and i think halo reach might just fix that! Am i alone on this or are there others that feel teh same way?

... dont let meh down bungie :(

it doese'nt look nextgen , looks good but not nextgen
If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

THey said they would make everything tie up and chances are that you wont get to touch the whole Hasley/Red Team part of the storyline since Bungie hardly ever touches directly anything that's one the books.


Many Spartans went down on Reach, and we only know about a handful of them. My guess is that we will know what happened to all the others, or to at least some of them.

I wish I was still legendary.

The game isn't about the book. Frankie said it's not a direct prequel, which means it can NOT focus on a story we already know.


There were 30 spartans at the briefing. 3 went on the space mission, leaving 27 on land. somehting like 4 died, 10 could fight from a fixed position, and then 3 went to secure the power generators (from memory, could be wrong). There's still 10 others by that logic that we have NOT heard about.

If I could write off your murder I'd save all of my receipts. Because I'd rather you be dead than lose a tiny shred of what I made this fiscal year.

i personally would LOVE to see Halo : Reach be the story of the other spartans and not necessarily include MC.

I haven't read the books yet. Are the books based off the game or did the game come after the books?

the first book (Fall of Reach) came out AFTER Halo: Combat Evolved. the books basically tell the stories of the Human/Covenant war that you dont experience firsthand in the games, however it was announced awhile back that they are writing a new series of books based on the forerunners which im sure i will be reading...
