I am just kind of curious on everyones thoughts on the Guardians. What are the guardians? Will they have a link into Halo 2? Or is it just a way for Bungie to play with our minds? Tell me what you think.

(For those of you who don't know what the guardians are, If you happen to be playing multiplayer and run into and an opponent and you both are shooting each other and you go up for the kill and shoot him, and right after you here a wack of some sort, It was a late hit by the person you just killed and it will say you have been killed by the guardians. It goes something like that.)

The Guardians are most likely Brutes.

I personally am just confused on this matter, Are they some old race that we don't know about? Bungie has not said anything that I know of on this matter. It would really make a cool thing to have them be revealed in Halo 2.

Wait. I thought you were talking about the books. My freinds and I have done just that many times, and no words ever appear on the screen.

Did you find this out yourself, or did someone tell you?

Did you mean regular MP, or Co-op? If regular, it was probably the oponents name.

It just says, "[your name/you] were [killed/betrayed] by [opponents name/friend's name]

Byrum, It doens't happen in Co-op, It only Happens in Multiplayer. And It has happened to me several times. It just didn't happen to you correctly. Or you just weren't paying any attention to who killed you. I might not have explained it very good but I did the best I could. And I am positive that there names were not Guardians. I have heard on the internet of other people explaining there same encounters. So I know what I am talking about.

Achronos has explained this topic on a few occasions. Not that I remember what he said or anything. :P
I believe it has something to do with confusion in the game engine. When the game doesn't know who to give a kill to (for one reason or another, ususally involving simulataneous death), the kill is given to the guardians. Course, this is the Bungie Universe we're talking about here. They have to have some subliminal significance.
