where the forerunners the only space fairing beings in there time, or where there other races.

Primitive species of many others

The precursors were space faring.

Ya like the humans and covenant species. But maby there was a another space fairing race. There are 6 space fairing species during the events of halo's 1, 2, and 3. if there are 6 at one time why couldn't there be only two then.

We'll probably find out when the forerunners trilogy comes out.

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.

When they dominated the galaxy?

Most likely.

I don't care. I really don't.

Probably. In fact they may have left traces on worlds, just are too far away for humans or Covenant to find. Some might be alive at the point Halo takes place, they just aren't in the same part of the Galaxy to encounter.

It's a big place; proabably places Forerunners had never explored, such as the Core or the far side or some systems located in the sparsely star populated voids between the Galactic Arms.

Remember that earth is on one of the arms also. So to find us they would have to explore allot of them. even if they didn't get all of them mapped.

You're assuming their homeworld wasn't in the same Galactic Arm, which it very well could be. Unless I am taking your comment the wrong way.

This Galaxy is so big, that there could be places and organisms that were as scary as the Flood when first discovered, just not assimilators and so were not a threat when left on their homeworld.

It's so big and mysterious, we could be in a binary system and not have known until just a decade or less ago (search Nemesis (star)), and that notion would destroy quite a bit of sci-fis that are considered plausible, and if there was a planet round that star with life and a sentient species, then even Halo's rather flexible canon would be destroyed.
Don't assume, even in sci-fi. There are hundreds of possible stories in Halo and hundreds of new lifeforms to be found if necessary.

how does a binary solar system affect any cannon. where does it say that are solar system is a single stared one. And the chance of there being life on a planet with life on it orbiting a red or brown dwarf star would be vary unlikely. the orbit area around the sun would be so mall it would be in a trillion.
