With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.
If you go by the silhouettes in the Reach banner and by the setting of the trailer, I would say it's most likely a prequel of sorts to Halo 1, where you play as a Spartan that is not the Master Chief. But none of that has been confirmed. It's all speculation.
I'd like to see the game be one where you play as a marine, but that's just my secret wish, and I realize that the likelihood of that is very slim.
As far as what Spartan you might play as goes, I think MLG Cheewahwah has it right in his script. One of the Spartans of Beta team (the team tasked with defending the orbital MAC generators on Reach). It's the largest group of Spartan-IIs that we know next to nothing about, and is the largest group of un-named and un-numbered Spartans as well. Not to mention, we don't exactly know what happened to them. They're assumed dead, but that was never confirmed. And with Spartans? Yeah, I think if their not confirmed dead, they've still got a chance.
Though there are those who think we will play as Spartan-IVs... which is possible, but personally I don't think that will be the case.
