Some of the armor looks like a mix of Halo 1 and 2 armor.

To me, it looks like something I've seen from Marathon.

Great update. Onyx looks sweet.

OMG! My head exploded when I saw the new cover and read the back of the cover. I MUST have this new book.

That one SPARTAN armor on the book cover looks pretty weird, but cool.

Look for the signs, the keepers of the flame.
They will lead you to war, and perhaps, to victory.

Finish the Fight

That cover is great. This will keep me thinking about its implications [the weird not spartan guy, the BR/AR gun, the weird gun, the AR, ect] probably up until I actually read the book...Kudos.

"Bother", said Pooh, as he chambered another round.

Nice new armour. Helmets kinda stupid looking though. The UNSC sure is into fashion eh? Changing their soldiers armour every game n' all...

Check out all my theories and creations at HBO!

Or read my fanfic, "Effort Cannot Conquer Faith" -- it won a signed novel from Eric Nylund!

Hmmm... that landscape/environment doesn't sound African. Earth levels outside of the EAP, perhaps?

No movie news. Hollywood is like, lock down embargo town. WE know a ton of stuff, but we're not allowed to tell you. But the stuff we know is very, very exciting. I totally want to dish, but I will get spanked if I do.


Take the spanking and tell us... :-)

...And so the hero crawled through the fissure on the surface of Tyr. There, the lone Dwarf stared into the cold, dark eyes of Soulblighter...The fiend hefted his blade over his shoulder as a flock of raven took upon his form...

-TBG-

I thought the wierd armor looked pretty cool. It makes me think of what a female's armor would be like if the Spartans didnot have the same type based armor.

that armour looks awesome, reminds me of mjolnir with some ODST thrown in. I cant wait to see what gun that is, too.

new assault rifle maybe?

The gun that the guy with the new armour is holding looks like a combat shotgun or assault rifle with a grenade launcher on it or sumthin

The usual snooze



This is becomming the weekly "we don't tell or show you crap about the new game" update..... I remember alot more cool stuff in the updates pre-dating H2....


Frankie, your hands may be tied... but these updates are getting old and stale.

We don't want to hear about you playing a new Level, and then you tell us nothing a about the level in question...


Either give us real news, or nothing.

I go around the world leaving a path of destruction in my wake. When I come to a city, grown men cry and women wail. I collect the skulls of my enemies and display them for all to see.........I also kick puppies. For fun.

***Warning - Off Topic Post Ahead***

So what's the official count on how many times Frankie has said "Single player is coming along swimmingly" in a weekly update?

It has got to be 3 at a MINIMUM...

I wanna see a YTMND about a Mister Chief epic maneuver. Please?

So basically Kelly along with Catherine and possibly Mendez are training Spartan lll's on Onyx when a structure (possibly the Ark, not likely, but possible) is activated. From what I can tell with the info given it's proabably a weapon but with the name Ghosts of Onyx it may be surviving Forerunners.

Sure to be a good read!

And what are you talking about klurejr. No real news? So giving us a front and back cover for the upcoming novel isn't news. Go away, now.
