I've been playing Halo since 2002. My earliest memories include hiding at the shotgun window on Damnation and killing my dad with grenades while playing co-op on Pillar of Autumn.

Like, the ending of Halo Reach would have you, much like halo CE and Halo 3's endings, running for your life in a 'hog or some other vehicle to get to the Pillar of Autumn, whilst the planet is being glassed immediately behind you.

It would feel awesome and intense, as looking back you'd see a giant covenant ship with it's laser destroying everything behind you, and stopping even for a moment would result in death.

And after the level you see Captain Keyes fly the ship away, towards a ring-shaped planet, and as the master Chief is awakened from his short sleep, the game fades into the credits.

What are your guys's thoughts?

I've always liked the drive-away end, and I think many other people like it too. But maybe Bungie decides to bring back the boss battle? Who knows...

Were there any real bosses in the books, though?

...Noooooo, I quess?
Maybe they will create a new one?

But don't you think the glassing laser will be extremely hot which will cause you to die if you get like 200 metres distance from it?

I like Halo, It kills all sentinel life with sufficient bio-mass... and doesn't afraid of anything.

Leading into Halo 1 would be cool.

driving endings ftw.

actually, thats exactly what i want too

I want to see the Pillar of Autumn take off in front of me at the end

I used to get on these forums back in the Halo 1, anticipating Halo 2 days...I'm back :)

I've been thinking this is possible myself. No one knows where the story begins or ends. Hell, it may begin at the fall of Reach and end somewhere completely unexpected for all we know. But I imagine it will end as Reach is falling

As long as we see Captain Keyes, I'll be happy.

An escape ending on Reach would be epic and as for the boss battle, I don't think it would would suit Halo

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

I hope the end cutscene of Halo Reach, will be the opening cutscene of Halo CE
