Subject: Desert Brigade Wallpaper from halo 3?

Doesn't it look kind of similar to halo 3? I mean that wallpaper looks similar: the chief is brown not green, it is in the desert (there are no desert levels for halo 2) he is heavily damaged(as seen in the trailer) and there are all these vehicles that are going around... there were no huge vehicle battles for halo 2...

so any thoughts?

what exactly are we looking at

If you go to the halo 2 section of bungie.net and go to wallpapers, scroll down and the last one is 'Desert Brigade' and that's the one i'm talking about.

One problem with this theory: look closely at his gauntlets...

well maybe they didn't intend it to be in halo 3 and only say it was in halo 2, but honestly why is the chief brown and fighting in the desert? didn't the covenant attack the city?

That was a going away present from Zoe. There were poles set up on what kind of walpaper she would make.

Desert Camo and Battle damage were most voted for. Desert Brigade is just an awesome wallpaper made by a former Bungie employee.

Edit: It was made a long time ago, around the release of Halo 2.

the chief doesn't have camo in halo 3 its just dust and dirt.(would you be spotless clean after going across the galaxy then treking across the african desert?)it could have to do with halo 3 because they have had the script for it since halo 2 (halo 2 was cut in two for halo 2 and halo 3) so zoe might have based the pic on the scene in halo 3.

Did you not read what I said? People voted for the MC to look like that. We chose what Zoe would make.

Love you Bungie!
Still playing Halo1 Custom Edition!

Still i beleive they're supposed to be a part of halo 2's removed levels. Remember in "The Art of Halo" we see the chief clearly in a FORERUNNER architecture structure, and it's Called " Earth Level" imo, we were supposed to find the ark, lead a strike force to it and get in it in halo 2, but instead they lacked time and decided to make a halo 3 instead ( to me that means that they are going to try wasting as much time as possible with arbiter levels to prove they have no content for a whole new campain
