If you were here before Halo 2, there were some crazy theories.

One was from the Halo 2 trailer with Master Chief being dropped off in a pelican and fighting the covenant. It goes into cinematics, the Master Chief speeds past a sign in a ghost that shows how far it is to different locations, one location said "Docks" so people were thinking that this must mean space docks, and that the Master Chief would get on a ship and travel to the homeworld and destroy the Covenant etc etc. (or something like that)

YET that level or movie was completely cut from the game, no trace of it whatsoever!

So although your wild theories are amusing and interesting, theyre probably nothing, so dont go thinking ever little thing you see is something drastically important to the whole plot, because it probably isnt.

I dont think any of the Halo2 theories have come true so far...

That's why they're "theories" nothing more than speculation. People come up with what they think will happen, and a year from now when the game comes out...if something they predicted comes true, then they can brag to their friends as they drink Mountain Dew in their parent's basement.

It will never come true, im just saying dont analyse every little thing.

Like the theory that Cortana in the trailer is actually Dr Halsey, just because she didnt have lines of code traveling her body. How can she materialise into thin air, why is she coloured blue, why does she sound like cortana, how did dr alsey get past the Covenant to Earth, why isnt she old and wrinkly like she would be by now, just because bungie said cortana was in the clutches of gravemind doesnt mean this isnt cortana, it just means that gravemind is controlling her perhaps?

Theres just no point in theories like this, theyre just crazy.

Back before Halo 2 was released, a forum-goer by the name of Eagle117 created a theory that was very long and involved. He hit so closely on the actual plot of Halo 2 that Bungie asked him to stop the thread in the main forum and move it to a separate group.

Don't say theories will never come true. Analyzing the small things that Bungie puts in lead to the overall picture. Some people create theories based off little to no factual evidence, other theories, or evidence they "claim" as factual, but can be proven wrong very easily. You have to look around through all the theories to find the few that are good.
