call me nuts but that sure looked like the MA5B from H1 in that trailer

will we see it in the real game either with the BR or by itself?

I hope that both are put into Halo 3, it would make it feel more like a conclusion, like a cross between Halo and Halo 2, you know?

I'm one of those storm chasers that will never have a TV show because I don't scream at clouds.

If you think about it it can make sense: both weapons existed during both games, but it is possible that the Pillar of Autumn and In Amber Clad simply had different armory requirements. After all, the Autumn didn't really need Battle Rifles with that high power sidearm as standard for all of its crew, whereas the In Amber Clad had more submachine guns, older M5C pistols, and the Battle Rifles. It is similar to how different military groups in our own time get different weapons. Officers tend to have lighter guns, while infantry tend to get automatic rifles. Many special ops teams have better weaponry, like a more acurate rifle with a semi-auto or burst fire mode. I personally think it would be great to see all of the old weapons return as well as the new ones. It is, after all, a 360 game, so it should be more than capable.

I'd like both to be in the game. Then people would have to sacrifice another gun to carry both, and not some weird switchy fire mode thing. It balances the game, so people wouldn't be carrying 3 guns at once, like a sniper in the pocket, and an AR BR cross.

Magnum = M6C
Battle Rifle = BR55
Assault Rifle = MA5B
