You've got to think crazy, of course, because you only get innovation by refining insanity. - Jason Jones

I just refreshed the front page and there is a new post from frankie about there e3 journey, in this he talks about how cj and marcus flew around the map well read this and take notice.

There wasn't much to show at the moment, since we're keeping things under warps for now, but CJ clued everyone in on the 3-mile wide Covenant artifact, Cortana's state of mind and the Chief (no it's not Linda, or Kelly…) battered Mjolnir armor.

Probably dosn't mean much, well except for the COVENANT artifact he mentioned.

They mentioned this stuff in the Gamespot interview. They also said in the interview that Master Chief was fully controllable, which I find really cool.

but until now we never knew exactly what or who the artifact was built by correct? If its a covenant artifact on EARTH dosn't that strike you as idk wierd? Unless he means covenant as in alien for a general assumption.

He said the Chief. Geez, It's Master Chief, Frankie even said. How much more evidence do you people need. He said it was the CHIEF. Therefore it is the CHEIF.

Frankie made a typo. The Covenant gets most of their tech from the Forerunners, how would the Covenant build something right under our nose?

Yes, Bungie is really just a company of liars. They lied about making Halo 3, so naturally, we can't take anything they say to us seriously.

C'mon guys. Paranoia to the extreme. And did I mention extreme BS?

This apple is brown, and rotten. This orange on the other hand, is in relatively average shape. So the orange is definitely the preferable option.
----------You can't compare apples and oranges. You're so dumb.

Not according to the new front page story.Second how did they lie? Did they ever say" Halo 3 is not our game" No they didn't did they? Sure Shishka said the cortana letters were not in any ways canon and were relics of time and then two lines from the cortana letters wound up in less then two and a half mintues of footage. Sure Shishka said he thought it was time for pimps at sea purposely throwing people off to actual believe that stupidity. Sure Shishka said no one important said halo was going to be at e3 before it was even though jospeh staten already hinted on it and shane kim already said it would. See the importance of this story is don't listen to Shishka unless he is talking about forum rules. : )

If I were perfect then this would be easy.

The Covenant are supposedly already in control of the Earth (I seriously don't know how that happened with the civil war and all) so it would seem possible that they could have a structure already built by the time Halo 3's plot takes place.

I think it was a small mistake on his part.

The artifact in question is the Ark, which was mentioned at the end of Halo 2. It is the central control hub of all the Halos when they are set into standbye mode when installation 05, Delta Halo is destroyed. Now a strange thing to note in the teaser is why the escorted Phamtom and cruisers which seam intent on reaching the Ark turn as it begins to activate. This may suggest that they where infact trying to stop it, and failed, trying to retreat as it fires. Perhaps that fleet is a friendly Elite controlled fleet gathering to stop Truth before it is to late, and it was infact the Arbiter aboard that Phantom, as we all should know by now, the Arbiter will kill Truth, and die in the process, due to past foreshadowing in Halo 2. Pure speculation mind you, but more pointless theories for the masses to discuss.

geez, that all makes a lot of sence, with the arbiter on the phantom and all, still tho no proof. that would be cool tho, 'specially if u were completely right.

oh and whoever is wondeing bout "the convanaent artifact" he just means that the covennat wants it mostly, they want and and intent to use it, not that it was made by them. thats all

He may have said Chief, but he never said Master Chief. Everyone thinks just because he said Chief it automatically means the one, the only Master Chief.

mabye its the sharquoi and the covenant are gonna use it. If not I doubt its covenant i think he jus made a mistake and its forerunner. He did say that it will look familiar to halo fans and it definately looks forerunner to me not covenant.

If it is a covenant weapon mabye it is the sharquoi that the elites talk about in the coversation from the universe book. They plant it and make a slipspace jump away and it blows up like the whole galaxy. or mabye not and its forerunner and looks similar to the halo especially with that beam that shoots or explodes.
