Them using the Nobleactual account is the only thing that concerns me. That and why the vid is unlisted. But that doesn't say it's fake. Ask 343, when they say something, we'll know more. Real or fake. And Bungie Arn't working on Halo anymore, all the more reason to hand the account to 343.


343 and Noble Actual....No

343 and the Videos....I highly doubt they would release unprofessional like the ones you all have seen.

And yes, I know Bungie isn't working on Halo anymore, I get that and so does everyone else who browses the forums. But that is not a reason to hand it over to 343. Bungie went there seperate ways from Microsoft and is now partnered with Activision. Its their choice on whatever game they wish to release, no more Halo games or "tension" (if you could call it) from Microsoft.

EDIT: And just cause Bungie denouced the activity on the so called "Nobleactual twitter feed" then that doesn't make it 343.

Why would Bungie keep something they do not manage anymore?

Whats really ironic about this is Bungie (if I recall correctly) did something exactly like this during the Halo 2 pre-release campaign.

Look at the pictures on NobleActual and you'll see why.

Link? I never saw anything like this.

@ElementL: They have the pictures of Bungie. So? Maybe It's Bungie posting this stuff for 343. (though unlikely) Maybe they forgot or haven't bothered to change.

I agree with Deco, he didn't say that it was fake.
But what about 343i?
Have they said anything about it?

Yea I read it a ages ago on wikipedia. It was a joint effort or something with another company and they made a ARG to help promote the game...Something like that. Gimme a second:

Okay, NobleActual is Bungie. Its a Halo Reach Dev Blog site. The pictures represent the good times they had when on the road releasing Halo. Thats a good enough reason to keep the site up. I highly doubt they would forget about it, and theres not point in changing a Dev Blog when you've already released the object you've been developing.

Exact science, is not an exact science.

  • 05.21.2011 5:38 AM PDT

I spend too much time here.. too much time indeed.

I tweet?

I'm as intrigued in this event as the next person, but I'm also just as skeptical. I remember I Love Bees from back in the day, but this doesn't seem up to par. Sure a lot of thought seems to have gone into this, but it doesn't feel... I guess professional. Can't explain it.

Also the one thing that really bugs me is the Marathon symbol usage in the one video. Bungie has separated themselves from Halo now, which means they've taken their Marathon references with them. I found this evident in the lack of this in Halo: Reach. I doubt that they would allow usage, even in part, of their IP for a promotion for another developers property. Even if it is Halo.

That's just my two cents.

It doesn't take place before Halo 3. It takes place after it.
Cortana is retelling history, but from my understanding she is falling into rampancy and so isn't getting all the details quite right.


Anyways, on topic: I'm just gonna label this fake. It doesn't look at all professional, I heard a line from Cortana from the first game with a single word removed from it.
Until there is proof of it being something real, it will remain fake in my eyes.

Indeed.

The sound byte where Cortana cries for help is the same byte as the one in Halo 1 where she says

"The Captain! His vitals are fading, please Chief hurry!"

But its been warped to sound like something else.

I am seriously not considering this real. Like CDF said, that is a good attempt, but way too unprofessional.

However, if 343i doesn't say something about it, then I'll start watching it

Probably is but sure wouldn't it be nice if it wasn't. Although....I may have some 343i confirmation here:

EDIT: Not 100% denial BUT Vociferous from 343i made a remark about it here. So unless they're messing around, looks like the trail gets cold here.

I think we all did. Its pretty obvious its faked. Its using age old sound bytes, the woman in the video sounds like GLaDOS before Valve synthsized her voice, and while I don't think 343i couldn't get their hands on the Marathon Symbol (since it's the symbol for Reclaimer) it seemed like a throaway.

But hey, you never know. Maybe its unproffesionalness is a way to make it seem more like an actual documented search. But at this moment, it seems fake.

Edit: ^^^^

OH SHI-

Well then, since Voc is basically one of the most prominent figures in 343i, and he's one of the canon gurus, everything he says should be regarded as a high authority over Halo.

Hmmmmm....Maybe I'll start watching these in full. Since 343i never confirmed they weren't going to be at E3 this year, the chance they will be there is pretty high.

Maybe its the start of something big?

Edit 2: But even still, though, I cant see 343 killing the Chief so quickly and in such a way as this. It kind of renders Medicant Bias' last wish as moot.

Eh, we'll see soon I suppose. We'll see.....

I said this in one of my posts.

Maybe the Symbol is there to remind you that MC is a Reclaimer. Infact, Forrunner.

And If he had, It would show that MC would still be alive, But the Cryo effects are still in affect.

"not end it like this."

OH SHI-
What? And who's Voc?

EDIT 2: In my post I said that His heart rate my have slowed LOADS or stoped completely, Hiding his life signs from the AI.

What I don't like is despite the strong points made in favor of being fake...Why have Bungie / 343i not fully denied the action?

"Nah, not ours" and "Yeah, I've never seen it before" are not exactly strong statements of denial, doncha think. But they are both(Urk and Vociferous) big heads in each respective corporation. So its hard to swing the mind in any direction. I say see what happens in the near future.
