i havent read the books but i played the games and i rekon there r more people like me who dont have a clue who the doctor is so i dont realy think he'd be in halo 3 4 that reason.


First off, Dr. Halsey is a "she"...


But I agree with many of the statements, throwing Dr. Halsey into the story this late in the game would throw alot of people for a loop, unless, as I have suggested in the past, the game be filled with mainly flashback cutscenes to when John was a kid... and through Forerunner Tech to when the Forerunner Empire flourished. If you remember the flashback to the fall of Reach in halo 2 that was awesome!

Afterall I think that the Chief is going to finaly realize all that has transpired and "pull the trigger on the Universe" himself... once everything is devestated and he knows that there is nothing left.


Actually it would not, remember Bungie just through in the Arbiter for Halo 2 and explained most of his past and brought us up to speed so adding Dr.Hasley and bringing us back up to speed would not be that hard.

Halo 3 has to many answers to explain.

Where are the other spartans?
Dr. Halsey? and the sparrtan she took with her?
What were they doing?
What is Ackerson up to?
and the main part is, how does the Covenant take over earth?


- This is going to be either a very cramped game with to much story line comming from the books

- This game will be the longest game you will ever play, and it wont take you 8 hours on heroic, maybe 10 on legendary if your good and dont cheat by just running by every alien.

- Or their is just going to be another one, i know they said this ends the Trilogy, but they said it has not ended the story or the halo, Every game that comes out as the third version will end a Trilogy of a series, but it wont end the game or story.

Acherson is up to making a Spartan 3 project it says in one of the halo books that he was starting the S3 project and that he is also cloning the Spartans from S2.

The Covenant took out Reach, so how did they take out Earth it was because it was over thrown by the Largest Covenant Fleet that the humans had seen that is why, because before you go to kill the Prophet Mercy it goes to a cutscene and it shows a HUGE slipspace and millions of ships going through it.

yes, but again it just shows how much more of the story bungie will have to put in to this, making this either the longest finishing game, or they will have to make more games. Or simply just make no link from the books to the game, and just have another book come out that will explain everything else that was unanswered in halo 3.

most of thoughs ships were destroyed by eachother in the Elites vs Brute war, and dont forget the countless flood taking control of them.

I know, some of them where destroyed, but still the Covenant got past one of the UNSC strongest Military Defenses which was Reach and it was glassed all the way almost and then blown to pieces by a Nova bomb.

P.S. READ THE BOOKS PLZ :D to all those who haven't!

It's definitely lightning, look where it comes from, in the middle, in the reflection of the vortex, and on our top left (MCs top right) so when it shows the vortex observe a little...right in the vortex, ans since it was a reflection before, look to the top right, bam more flashes in that area. Owned. And BTW...halsey is not broken up into sections, pause the trailer showing CORTANA and notice the black spaces on her shoulders, it definitely Cortana so lock this thread please.

Why do you want to lock this Thread? It has been on topic the discussion is still going. People still think that Dr. Hasley is in the trailor and that it isn't Cortana it could be both of them combined :D!

Carrots.

Errr... may I just say that Cortana is a younger version of Dr. Halsey? So why would Dr. Halsey look the same as Cortana now? Why is she purple?
Anyways, it said in the anouncement trailer that its Cortana and not Dr. Halsey, they said "The Cortana reveal was the first thing that would sugest that this is a Halo 3 trailer" Therefore, its Cortana.

Read about my gaming here.

It's cortana

Have you seen in 1:53, there is a faint blue light on the right and that is not a reflection. No engine is reflected that high up, the lightning stops when it opens and its not comming from the dome.

I know that its Cortana, but still people think its Doctor Hasley it mainly is the Doctor but a younger version of her. :D

Just a thought:

I don't want to play a video game that requires me to have read 7 books in order to understand the plot. To me that just comes off as bad script writing.

That being said, I'm not implying that this series has been poorly written. I'm implying that I don't think they are going to introduce plot elements from the books that weren't already covered in the previous games. Doing so would alienate over half of the people that play this game who have never read the books.

Just a thought. Feel free to flame, like you really need my permission.

It's not people shouldn't read the books, they are pretty good. But doing something like that wouldn't be all that smart. They could just find ways to throw that stuff in. Also isn't Cortana based on Dr.Halsey?

That doesn't change my stance on the issue.

I don't think its Dr.Halsley because those of you who read the books remember Dr.Halsley got older and it showed in the books as the MC train and fought, so it must be Cortana because she looks too young and Cortana was modeled from Dr.Halsley when she was younger
