Ok I watched the Halo 3 trailer on G4s coverage of E3 and I saw Master Chief
holding the assualt rifle and I nearly PEED my pants I was so happy but than
it hit me like a punch in the face Where the heck did it come from I mean
in Halo 1 they had it then in Halo 2 they replace it Crapy SMG (curse you SMG)
now Halo 3 comes and they bring it back I mean what are they going to say
happend to it "Well We honestly don't now" I mean he got on the covenet
ship with Either Alien weapons or an Battle Rifle Or the crapy SMG (Curse you SMG)
then he gets off the ship with with the Assault Rifle Were did it come from

iDon't need an app to make fart noises. There's an ass for that.

I was wondering the same thing also, maybe the only place where the assault rifle is is on Earth? Maybe he found it when he landed. Perhaps Bungie has heard us about getting the old assault rifle back. Let's all hope so, lets hope its an added weapon

Frankie and others have subtly (or not so subtly, really) hinted that the gun in his hand is not the old assualt rifle.....at least not entirely. So, although it sure looks like it (and is probably almost the same), it will have some differences. And, probably, those differences will be for the best. Because Bungie usually knows best. Except when they remove the assualt rifle. That's the only truly stupid thing I've ever known Bungie to do. Upgrading it though, that's probably good news. Like, making it more accurate. That'd be awesome.

you do know that the vid... wasn't the first movie of the game... its probably closer to the middle/end.... there is going to be a time frame from the end of halo 2 to the beginning of halo 3's trailer...... for all we know its outdated tech but its all he's got to work with so he ain't gonna complain...

What if yhey did upgrade it maybe they will attach a Grenade launcher

Well maybe they buried all the ARs until H3 then they were all upgraded underground by worms. No one knows why they brought it back (sort of), but Im sure theyll tell us and it is not worth talking about at this point.

Well i do remember in the discription about the trailor they said that it was a part in the game where a true even happened in the real game.... so that means maybe when he walking around on earth he maybe crashed a ship or a vehical or sumtin and all he found was an assult rifle. but who knows if they lied and kept a secret on halo3 this long and not telling anyone (by the way does anyone know when they started to make halo3?) who knows how messed up and strange the story line of halo3 is going to be especialy whats going to happen in the end of halo3. oh and i got another question for anyone who looks at this. what will happen to the arbitor? does anyone having any ideas on what might happen to him cuz i mean hes covanant to and the convanant are trying to erase the humanes from existance? all questions that wont be answered till halo3 is released and is beaten
