If they are the new thing how will the story line fit them in? How will it explain how they werent on Halo but they are coming to Earth?

And the fact that there were no flashlights on Halo. Can't forget to explain that too.

Really though, they're ceremonial temple guards. Something on Earth must beg for their attention. That, or the covies are pulling out all the stops.

Who said that they were comming to earth, the demo might not be in the game, and bungie said they were going to take the battle to a covie home world.

Hey. Hey. Hey ACID. They said that it was one of the early levels of Halo 2. And that cutscene where the brutes crash into the wall? That's gonna be in there just like it is in the demo.

Making of the 2003 E3 demo article. Find it and read it.

How do you know that the covies are even sending it all out on earth, the humans are inferior. Maybe the covies are having moe then one war? Maybe they need to use the brutes b/c their forces are stretched thin? Maybe you get your own allies? Maybe brutes are a new enducty to the covenant alliance? Insertion units that can deep strike into enemy territory? Or Bungie just got bored made a new strong unit and programmed it to kill stuff. But yes I agree, the brutes and covies are coming to earth.

i think that it could have they were too expensive to waste by guarding Halo, or that it was too expensive to transport, or it could have been that they weren't expecting Master Chief to show up and use fusion reactors to destroy the ring world.

It's because they are the Prophet's temple gaurds. There will be Prophets in Halo 2, therefore there will be Brutes. In the e3 demo there was a covenant ship downed and damaged on earth, my guess would be that there is a Prophet aboard, and needs the Brutes protection.

From what i've heard the brutes are extremely religious and stick around the prophets and important artifacts, some people speculate that the attack on earth is a religious attack, or some kind of purge to clense their universe, this would partially explane why the brutes would be there.

The attack on Earth is not religious. The Covenant's struggle to destroy mankind might be. But the attack on Earth is just a massive step to make humanity extinct.
