I had a sinking feeling that we weren't going to hear anything about H3 until the movie was about to hit theaters, and then the game would just be the movie in game form as happens. Will they be tied together? Will one lead into another? Any speculation as to how these two will relate?

Im guessing the Halo movie is set before the events of Halo: Combat Evolved.

I'm willing to bet that the movie will be out around the same time as Halo 3, though I think it'd be silly to release them both on the same day.

As for story, it's more than likely that the movie will cover events in the first game.

If that's true it would be IDEAL.

But they would have to go a little into the Halo CE story, Like in the Fall of Reach, at the End...

Halo Movie = Fall of Reach = Perfect movie ever heck I doubt anyone would mind if they followed the plot of the Fall of Reach to the "T" and made a 4 + hr movie. I sure as heck wouldn't, . THey could even make the second movie from the Events that happened in "First Strike" and have flash backs to the battles and events that happened on Halo and with the flood. Just to fill in the blank areas in the plot that the games didn't address.

I think the movie will most likely cover all 3 books and if not at least the last 2. If they just base it off Halo:CE then it will be basically watching a cinematic of the game for 2 hours.
So they need to ensure that it delves into more than one book at least.

OMG!!! Gaming For The Fun Of It In The UK and Europe!

The OMG Community Montage - a unique Halo3 DVD montage.

Don't try arguing with idiots. They'll bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience.

The Halo 3 ending will set the scene for the movie, forcing us to wait a further 5 months for the climax...

I have to admit I've never read any of the books - I wonder if the movie and game will stay as true to the original fiction as possible or if it will go in new directions. Anyone remember "I love bees"?

Halo 3 wont be out for at least a year. They will have the multiplayer aspect at next years e3 which is in exactly a year. Expect to wait at least 14 months methinks.
