There is something that I just don't get about the trailer for H3. Why is earth under Covenant control? I mean, we beat there fleet in the second game. It was destroyed, Johnson evens says so at one point in the game. And the Chief started a civil war between the covenant so how do they have enough power to take over earth? It doesn't make sense. So if the Covenant have earth, then why bother fighting? I mean we lost, so whats the point of the third game?

Because there weren't many Cov ships in the 2nd, they didn't know Earth was inhabited by humans.
After we defeated the first lot, more and more and more Covie ships came, and overwhelmed Earth's forces.

Why bother? To take Earth back maybe?? I personally wouldn't want an 8 foot tall alien monster with an Energy Sword knocking on my door.

Earth may of fallen, BUT Master Cheif is going to kill everyone of them, he did it to halo, and the uneven elephant or two squids kissing in the case of Johnson. You kind of people ruin moral, think positive. MASTER CHEIF IS BACK -blam!-ES!

Correction... MC didn't start the covenant civil war, maybe he was in the corner but it was not him. It just gave the prophets an excuse to take away the elites. In the book First Strike one kind of gets the impression they like the Brutes more than the elites. And in the Halo extra dvd where they have some cut-scenes that didn't make it they say that elites and prophets fought on their homeplanet before they made it into space.. or if they fought over some forerunner technology.. i'm not sure

But anyway, if you don't want to fight for earth then don't buy Halo 3

Do none of you have a sense of humour?
We do, this just isn't funny.

possibly, the covenant may have teamed up with the Humans, therefore, joint control, and NOT fighting each other.
