Come on, you apes! You wanna live forever?
Halo is inspired by many things. Alien, Dune, Starship Troopers, Ender's Game; the list goes on. Most franchises do it though; for example Mass Effect is heavily inspired by Babylon 5, and Bioshock by Atlus Shrugged.
Writes are only human, and when humans watch something we're captivated by it tends to inspire us. I know that when I write I look to other pieces of fiction often for inspiration.

I've had enough of your disingenuous assertions... *Smacks Connor*
I'm surprised that nobody ever points out Larry Niven, does his novel "Ringworld" not give the game away?
I haven't read the book, but isn't the only similarity the ring shape of halo?
Don't worry, I'm sure Alex hasn't read it either. You know, since his favourite book is Harry Potter.
Yeah, I just took it to the publics.
:P
