I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

I don't think the Halo franchise has anything to do with atlantis... I think the Halo franchise is a tie-in to the Bible... Take a Look at this:

''The Bible mentions the Ark for the last time in Jeremiah 3:16, when it is noted that "when yet be multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, saith the Lord, they shall say no more, The Ark of the covenant of the Lord neither shall it come to mind: neither shall they remember it; neither shall they visit it; neither shall that be done any more."

This goes along with "The Ark Theory", in that if the Forerunner really were humans, they could have forgotten all about the Halo(s) and the Ark over-time.

Anyway back on topic, Will the Fuel Rod Cannon be in Multiplayer this time Frankie?

yes I'm sure there's SUMthing about it in there... SUM, cause you know that's how you spell it.

I think you should allow all weapons in multiplayer, but don't put some of them into matchmaking. If we want to mess around with the fuel rod cannon or whatever, we should be able to no matter how imbalanced it is. We could just turn it off.

Hey Frankie,

Two questions for you:

Since the appearance of the Assualt Rifle (or an alternate model, whatever), people have been freaking out about the possible nostalgia of Halo: Combat Evolved. Will there be any other returning content from the original game?

And, when will we begin to learn about the multiplayer details? I know you have 100 000 fans out there that would like to hear about them!

Also, me and my Canadian brothers would like to see Mister Chief rockin' out in Toronto or something. I'm thinking, a trek up the CN Tower...

Xbox Live Gamertag: Opey Master

And yeah, Opey could probably win that game without using his BR. Best SMG user in Halo.

Will Bungie be looking at fan ideas? [for like balance issues, weapons, vehicles, etc]
Because I have seen some really good ideas floating around the forums.

how can this be the last halo game when at the end of halo 2 it shows like 6 more halo rings . i just don't understand plus i really dont think it is because when most people think of xbox they think of spartan 117 .

idk thats a good question and i was thinking the same thing... And what happened to the other survivng Spartans, because they didnt appear in Halo 2... and what about the supposed Spartan III's that were supposed to be trained as well???

Hey I am so excited!
Ive been a halo fan since it first came out, It was also my first X-box video game ever!
I have always thought the halo games were the best ever and hope that Halo 3 will be just as good as the rest, THANKS BUNGIE!!!

I have to agree, but I did think that the weapons and the campaign mode on Halo 2 could have been improved...
For example... In reality, a shotgun shot from about 10-15 would kill someone(take away all of MC's shield)... but in H2, it is like a pellet gun(unless you have host, then you can snipe ppl with it)
And the sword, the fact that it is white hot plasma should like be an automatic kill, even though the lunges could me made from outrageous differences(even though it is fun)
And I think that the story could have been more thorough
Other than that... Keep up the amazing work

Also... The plasma pistol was a joke of a weapon unless it was DWed or if you used BR with it
Needlers could have been made a little stronger....

Rofle. pal, i think its because there were so many people who thought it was not a sword, he wanted to stress out that it was indeed a sword. ;)
Did anyone notice the F on the destroyed human tec just before MC is fully shown? Its on the left.
-Aktins Diet
Its at 45-51 secs. No one noticed it before.


Yeah i noticed the "F" the first time I was starting to look for eggs on tuesday.

wait...what sword...and what F?

i heard, almost a month after halo 2 came out, that there would be a new spartan in the next game.Sapposadly, if you got the limited edition halo 2 there was a letter describing someone who was injured and put in a hospital. Is this truely a new spartan, and if so when will we see him/her?


I think it'd be great to see the other Spartans, like Fred, Will, and Linda (for those readers). But Kelly...no one would get her story if they didn't read the books about how she went with Dr. Halsley.

yea..what ever happened to kelly?

Are the mountains in the distance all that detailed?
Will it really be possible to get to them somehow?

Dear Bungie, I think ever thing you did uo to 2 months ago was great. You did a stupid move by getting rid of clan matches. What is the point in having clans if there are no clan matches. I know so many people that would be happy if u got rid of team carnage and bring back clan matches or even 1v1.
