This is a wallpaper from Halo 2, from bungies own site

http://www.bungie.net/images/games/halo2/wallpapers/BrigadeDa maged-1600.jpg

Now tell me, what color is that? It looks a LOT like the color of the armor in the new trailer...
I was just wandering why they made it that color in H2? Of course it was never in the game but it must mean they thought of it...

Cause it looks cool? I don't know, but I think his armor is just discolored from all the stuff he's been up to.

Yeah, only nerds skip school. Oh wait...

If you ask the Halo books, then the answer is that the armor becomes more and more brown the longer it has been used.

"The Master Chief knew it was not his suit. His, after years of use, had dents and scratches in the alloy plates and the once iridescent green finish had dulled to a worn olive brown."

(Halo: The Fall of Reach, page 248)

That wallpaper also made me think that they planned for a lot more earth levels in H2 that just got scrapped for some reason... It can't really be from H3 because there are tanks and stuff in the background... And as far as I know everyone's dead..

True, but we don't know what the Master Chief has gone through before the time of the trailer (which is said to take place some time into the story). To quote the FAQ section:

"Q

I noticed the Master Chief's armor was scraped and damaged, what happened to him?

A

Lots of things."
