If you look into the pre-xbox halo pics, there is one with Chief facing two spiny behemoths. I don't know if it would have distracted us from the main story, but I think it would have been pretty cool if they had made it into the final product. just another layer of depth. Think about it, have a mini ecosystem on Halo, with predators that would attack on sight, both Covies and Humans, and herbivores that would be peacful unless attacked. Who knows...I just think that it would have been fun to get the attention of a few Elites and grunts and then lead them past the den of some giant monstrosity! :D

lol, just a silly thought, (don't crucify me in effigy if you think its dumb) what if one level in Halo 2 takes place in a ZOO? so there would be new hazards like lions and crocodiles and stuff, then you lead Covies into the exhibit and the animals do your dirty work for you! :)

No, the animals would have looked corny (like in that movie from Gamestock it was?).

It would have taken some of the battle atmosphere away if you see a herd of cattle nibbling the grass whilst kicking the crap out of an Elite

I think the master chief should get a pet puppy in halo 2.

Have you read the "History of Halo" article? It said that Halo was going to have dinosaurs you could kill. The pics looked soooooo dumb. It was unreal. Master Chief is trying to destroy an entire alien race, not go deer hunting... Lol....

Some of them were friendly, others were actual enemies I think. It says something about them in an article here at Bungie.net

Who knows, I thought it might be pretty nifty, but I agree, if I were kicking the crap out of some elites and a "cow" walks through our fight, it would make me laugh, and then I'd kill the cow...

Birds in the trees would be ok, then they like fly off at gun shots, but no land bound animals.

Cattle or other wildlife are not necessary, but just having the odd bird fly overhead would be an interesting effect...

It would be awesome to just pop a few dinos on the way to a mission.

like the article said, native creatures on halo would have ruined the ominous feeling of the ancient alien artifact that is HALO. besides, framerates would have probably plummetted.

BOO! No dinosaurs. Too...uhh..I dunno, umm, not even sure what it's too much of, but I'm not sure I like it. The bird thing sounds pretty awesome though.

No dinosuars or anything bigger than a bird or rat, come on you really want halo to turn into another turok flop. Ambient life like , birds, mice, crows, buzerds, fish, flies for dead corpses since they dont disapear, umm big bugs like lockusts, or bees, just little stuff, anything bigger than any that i just mentioed, would be stupid.

Ohhh look there is a bunch of brontosuares, lets go kill them, this would not be fun, i would kill myself if halo 2 turned out to be the next version of Cabela's dangerous hunts.

MSXL: The Last Honest Chapter

Does anyone actually think about why there is no ambient life? Ok, Halo was there to contain the Flood. And what to the Flood require to reproduce? YES! Life! If they put that in Halo, it would make no sense with the plot line, and would have been torn to shreds by obsessed nerds like myself and Yoozel.

I do, however, hope we see some form of life in Halo 2, considering some of it takes place on Earth!

I think it would be cool to come across a scavaging wolf feeding on a dead Elite. Well......maybe I just want to see a dead Elite get eaten.
