Halo: Reach, The Return of Master Chief? Leaked Images and Info.

The recently leaked images of Halo: Reach weapons/perks show a glimpse at the topside of the hand holding them and it appears to be that of Master Chief.

[markbob]

Well Master Chief is on Reach during the invasion.

So that makes sense that we would play as him or atleast see him if we play as another spartan.

[Mr Logic]

People seem to not understand that since this is before Halo it's not a "return".

[Nostradavis]

From a gamer standpoint it marks the return of us being able to play him so I think my headline makes sense.

[BadboyCivic360]

i expect alot of reach info in the coming days

[Blaze929]

People seem to not understand Master Chief wasn't the only Spartan...

[StanLee]

How is this leaked? Waypoint launched today. I just downloaded it.

[Xbox Avatars Shoe]

The fall of Reach takes place right before Mater Chief boards the Pillar of Autumn as the last Spartan alive at the very beginning of Halo: Combat Evolved, so it only makes sense that Master Chief appears sometime in the game. Not to mention, Master Chief is the best Spartan, hence the name "Master Chief" and in the novel "The Fall of Reach" it says he's in the battle for Reach so it's a no brainer.

Edit: LOL at the disagrees! What I said about the beginning of Halo: CE is 100% true and Master Chief HAS to appear at some point, even if it's a very short time, because he's the only Spartan to make it out alive. The end of Reach is the beginning of Halo: CE so they have to include Master Chief in at least the end of the game. They could focus on another squad the for most of the game but they have to at least have Master Chief at the end.

[ThanatosDMC]

If they read the novel, then no duh that he's there... ignorant people. Heck, i bet it's on wiki.

[dbf]

MC isn't the only spartan left after Reach falls, read "Ghosts of Onyx"

[Munky]

Yes all 33 of the Spartans were sent to Reach, but they were split into two groups. One group which consisted of MC, Linda, and James, the other group consisted of the rest of the Spartans which was led my Fred. Many of the Spartans died when their pelican had to crash land onto earth, off the top of my head I believe only 12 survived. As for the group that was still in orbit (to either destroy something or to stop the covenant from getting important info, I don't remember) the only one that survived was MC, James was blasted into space and Linda "died" but was later revived. MC is not the only Spartan still alive, for sure Fred, Kelly, Linda, and 5 Spartan III's are stuck on (in) Onyx. Their is the "grey" team which is made up of three Spartans still alive but were to far away (possibly behind enemy lines) to be sent to help on Reach. So all in all their are enough Spartans alive and well, I just hope this games ends up as good as the novels are.

[Reibooi]

Well personally I think most of these screens are so blurry that I don't feel comfortable calling them real or not.

As for the master chief thing. The game takes place on Reach an event in the Halo universe that Master Chief was present for however he was not the character we now know of at that time in the time line. Also ALL the Spartans wear that armor so just because the hand looks the same means nothing. It could just as easily be any of the other Spartans from the books as they will certainly be involved.

[RockmanII7]

Fred, Kelly, and Linda are still alive if I remember correctly.

[iagainsti120]

i bet that you get to play as Fred because MC is in Space the whole time reach is being invaded and Fred is 2nd only to MC in combat ability if i remember correctly, now that i think about it we may get to rescue that damn Admiral.
and play with Mini Shiva Warheads hehehe

[Rock Bottom]

Wait! Halo reach is a FPS?

[LastDance]

Yeah sik!! epic return..What's it been...few months or something?

Thank God he is back to show no expression or give us any kind of emotion.
What is Halo without that.

[pixelsword]

And awaits the day.

[vhero]

Another Halo FPS that looks exactly the same as the last one?? Can you say a big expansion pack? Especially if it is MC. Halo needs something new to its universe not another version of Halo 3 with a new story. Yet it will get great reviews even though its exactly the same game with a different story. If any other game series tried it they would be shot down instantly.

[ABizzel1]

Isn't Halo: Reach a prequel meaning that the Spartans are still alive. So you may not be playing as Master Chief maybe as another Spartan (hopefully one with a personality).

But on to the game. If these are real (which I must say they look very real) then I guess the rumor I heard of Bungie using a new engine for Reach is true, either that or they worked wonders out of their old engine. The game looks a lot better in those screen, not best of the best in the shooter genre, but certainly a leap up from the previous installments.

[Aquanox]

Looking at how detailed the weapons are (even when the screens are blury) it's clear that they belong to a completely new Graphic Engine. I love the way it looks, less cartoony. I really hope these are real. The Halo 3 Engine age was way too obvious in ODST.

[LaChance]

I know they are only camera pics but wow do the graphics look tight !!!

The graphics have definitly improved a alot! Its almost like a leap from old gen to next gen for the Halo series lol.

[IdleLeeSiuLung]

The graphics is significantly improved as well.

[dabri5]

I'm pretty sure, if you look at how ODST was set up, we will get to play as a few different Spartans in REACH. They invested heavily on how to set switching between characters without jarring the Immersion of the gamer to not use it again. I expect we will get to play as a few different characters. Glad to see that they will be using different "perks" as was talked about in the book. IE: one spartan has better shields, one has really good sniper perks, one is really fast.

[borgome]

Long live the King.

[Mista T]

>_>

[FiftyFourPointTwo]

The king of the most generic characters. -__-

[ReviewsArePolitics]

Poor X-tards, getting excited about nothing but generic garbage.

LOL, look at the graphics, it looks exactly like Halo 2.1 a.k.a. Halo 3

[chrisulloa]

Generic character? LOL good one. Name one space marine main character in an FPS that came before him.

[Gabe EatsWell]

Green Ranger > Master Queef

[Barbapapa]

halo sux without MC, like MGS without snake :P

[PeptoBismol]

the Sony fanboys on here sound a lot like the bots earlier this gen.

it's just getting really annoying.

[LUCKYXS7LEVEN]

Didn't know it was Power Ranger Hour over at the M$ Farm.

[kevinx1000]

"LOL, look at the graphics, it looks exactly like Halo 2.1 a.k.a. Halo 3."

you do realise this is a very early built, don't you?

how's halo 3 suddenly halo 2.1. it's a worthy next game.
new engine, much better graphics, gameplay renewal, tons of feautures, finish the fight.

halo 1 was the #1 game for it's time, halo 2 was the #1 game for its time, halo 3 was the #1 for its time (and it's still in the top) and halo reach will THE game to play in 2010 and 11.

[4point7BillionLoss]

... excactly $4.7 billion marketing halo reach !!!!

[Upbeat]

says at the main menu "start solo game" this must mean there is going to be co op :O

[FrankDaTank]

Looks like MC's hand to me. All who argue against it are foolish! Time to grab another beer.

[NoBias]

There's more than one spartan, smarty. That's like looking at someone in full S.W.A.T. gear and saying "Oh, that's GOTTA be 'John Doe'!!!"

[Xdrari]

LOL

[Saaking]

Master Chief is THE WORST character ever. ZERO personality. It just a super powered space marine dressed like a power ranger.

[jhooty14]

Saaking are all ur comments fanboy related? lol mt fave charecter is solid snake kratos and nathan drake

[Sandwich Bender]

Don't forget about Gordon Freeman!

But yeah, I agree with Master Chief not being that great.

[4point7BillionLoss]

it's all about CORTANA !!!!

They could render halo reach on the halo two engine it'll still be better than flozone and unfarted !!!

[TheBand1t]

Master Chief is a soldier.....it could be any SPARTAN.

[jerethdagryphon]

they had a chance tomake reach something truly spectacular but i fear they will end up with another squad based fps with halo skin,

they could have done so much more even if they had to take a bit of license from the books

and switch the squads,

[Sir Ken_Kutaragi]

http://g.virbcdn.com/i/resi... ;-D

[RockmanII7]

http://www.freakware.de/new...

[dbf]

All Spartan II's have the same armor, could be any of them

[SixZeroFour]

somewhat true...i think as far as armor on the body is concerned they have the same (i think) but they do wear different helmets, you can even check on the actual fall of reach novel cover

[RockmanII7]

No, everything about the Spartans is the exact same. They just do that so you are able to tell who is who. Outside of the Spartans, only one person in the galaxy can recognize each spartan by appearance, Dr. Halsey, and that's only because she tells them apart by how the way they walk.

[Grandreaper9999]

Woah, wasn't this same thing just rejected a minute ago?

[cyberwaffles]

thats N4G baby ;)

[badz149]

it's just logical that Bungie will put him in-charge in Reach! admit it guys, not playing as MC in ODST makes it feels a little 'off' isn't it?

[predator]

it was weird playin a Halo game without being MC but also fresh at the same time but I still want to be MC in REACH

[badz149]

and i think many others out there also do! what's with the disagrees btw?

[Sgt_Slaughter]

Look, the invasion on Reach was delayed by Spartans, not necessarily Chief himself. If you've read the books, you'd know that he returned in the third book, which takes place immediately after Halo 1, and he managed to rescue the remainder of his fellow Spartans.

[Nostradavis]

True, but if they put you back under the hood of a Spartan, why not make it him? Wouldn't it be easier to market him over some wanna be? Just a thought.

[foreverflame]

Looks better than flopzone 2.Halo reach the king of graphics have returned

[LordMarius]

the king of graphics? since when

[turnerdc]

Halo and Halo 2 were some of the best graphics seen on consoles for their time.

[ReviewsArePolitics]

There were many games better than Halo 2, including Doom 3 (on PC). Halo 1, maybe... for its time. Halo 2 better than Halo 1, but by then consoles had been left behind by PC.

[NecrumSlavery]

Halo 2 had bad graphics. Yeah they were nicer than H:CE over all, but everything was shiny and purple, WTF?

How can the green ranger return if Reach is based 5 years or so pre Combat Evolved?

[turnerdc]

I said on consoles! Of course PC graphics were better around that time, PC graphics have and always will catch up to and surpass console graphics.

[LUCKYXS7LEVEN]

i don't know wat drug ur putting to your eyes but seriously proof facts about Halo Reach Graphics are better then KZ 2 (or ProShooters 2 as i like to call it)No Cut-scene Bull just Gameplay n i'll give ya a bubble

[Upbeat]

lmmao, did i miss read that or did that say it looks better than killzone 2 ?

the king of grapics has returned ?

do u realise that halo3 and halo3(2) odst where rendered from an xbox1 engine? and u think that they are better than killzone ?! LMFAO!

[silverchode]

isnt this a prequel tho?

[foreverflame]

Halo reach=The ps3 killer for 2010.Fear it droids

[Saaking]

Master chief was around during the fall of reach.

[Deadman64]

lmao saaking. Studying halo a little too much for a PS3 Fanboy aren't ya?

[silverchode]

you need to know your enemy :)

[LUCKYXS7LEVEN]

ain't that the truth

[cmrbe]

Fall of reach went over the spartan program. John if i remember correctly is MC's real name. There was a lady scientist that headed the program. There were alot of spartans in MC's group and he was the only one that survived which lead up to events in Halo 1.

i.e. MC is in Reach.

[xenogamer]

master chief never fought on the planet reach when the covies attacked, he was in space with linda and james, and kelly is still alive and all of grey team is still alive.

[cmrbe]

I am sure MC fought on reach. Reach is where the spartan program was conducted including the MJOLNIR armour development and augementation of the spartans.

[xenogamer]

no sh1t, but at the end, when the covies attacked, MC was headed on a mission to go comandeer a covie ship and kidnap a prophet, when the covenant surprised attaacked reach, then him and linda and james went to go take the NAV data off a space instalation do to the cole protocol, he never actualy sets foot on reach during the attack, after he attains the NAV data, captain keys does a blind slip space jump ( actually not blind) and appears infront of halo. MC never fights on reach.

[cmrbe]

i think i remeebr that part. Dont remember what happend to the rest of the blue team and Dr Heasly or whatever her name was i can't remeber. All i remember it was a route. Number 117.

[SixZeroFour]

yea i think there were 33 remaining spartans before the battle of reach, but split up into 2 teams (i think it was red and blue) which was 3 and 30, 3 being MC, linda and james, and the 30 being everyone else

the 30 was split into even smaller squads and they battled on reach but many of them died upon landing

but i havent read the book in quite some time, so my info could be a bit wrong in some places

[RockmanII7]

Xenogamer is right, but Bubbles for both because I wasn't expecting Cmrbe to have that much Halo knowledge.

[Xi]

One team went to defend the last remaining orbital defense, which was headed by John the rests stayed on reach while the planet was getting glassed.

[cmrbe]

I bought an xbox for halo. Halo story was so good that I bought and read the books. What caught me was the beginning of halo 1. After that opening sequence on the autumn I wanted to kill every convent one by one. Halo 1 to this day is in my top 10 games of all time and I have games for over 25 years now. Then came H2 and H3. The story got impersonal and stupid. Dissapointment is an understatement. I hope they don't mess up the story in reach becuase the book is very very good. Still have it.

[SixZeroFour]

same, i still have the fall of reach and first strike novels...even downloaded audiobooks for the other ones (GoO, CP, etc) just incase i was bored and wanted to listen to them...havent had the time to listen tho

[mastiffchild]

Well, IDK, but what I DO think is that the story of Reach is one of the netter of a terrible bunch of stories in the Halo novels. Seriously, i tired and failed to really get inot any of that stuff as, to me(don't kill me!) it was just so badly put together and the writing is pretty pedestrian at best.

Thing is the tales is pretty well known even among Halo heads who, like myself, aren't that fussed about the books and, really, is the story of what happened on Reach that well suited to a game IF they don't change a few bits and risk the wrath of the perfectionists among us?

It's just a thought(so, again, don't kill me over this!)but don't you feel it would make for a pretty bleak game? Of course they could add stuff in as well as leave stuff out and, personally I'm quite happy not to play as MC-would make a cool change without them needing to revolutionise gameplay at all. I mean it though -I don't think , as it stands, that Reach is the perfect "game" story. Very interested to see where they take this.

Just give me the games over those bloody novels every time! Sci Fi isn't even that hard to do well.

[SixZeroFour]

imo the story of reach is far more suited for a movie than the game cause i dont think the, hmm...action parts? of the game could do the story justice...but cutscenes could, and if cutscenes could do it justice, then might as well just make it a movie

and that is why i often wondered whether halo reach was about before, during, or after the fall

[ThaOutKast]

It looks like a needler Gatling gun or something. Awsome!

[xenogamer]

looks like a needler rifel instead of just a gun, overpowered probably lol.

[SixZeroFour]

my guess is the difference between that and a normal needler is that

pros
bigger clip
still goes BANG! when you land a whole lot of needles

cons
no more homing needles

im sure bungie is still keeping weapons very balanced

[Xi]

That's a covenant rifle but which shoots needles. 3 needles in a single target and you get the needler explosion effect.

[SixZeroFour]

links Xi...dont tease with rumors without links, thats just mean...lol, especially when not much is known about it, id still like to read rumors or speculation as long as they arent extremely farfetched

[RedSoakedSponge]

I was hoping it was a needler with the extra power to pin people to walls :) Iv always loved that type of gun lol.

[ThaOutKast]

Master Chief on the Pillar of Autumn in a cryo-chamber while Reach was getting glassed or did he board the ship after?

[STICKzophrenic]

Graphically, I'm pretty sure Halo: Reach won't compete with Killzone 2 or Uncharted 2, but it isn't all about graphics.

Halo: Reach will have awesome gameplay and the COMMUNITY will be awesome, just like Halo 3. Bungie will support the community as well, like they always do. If you want to know why Halo 3 is consistently one of the most played games on XBL week in and week out, it's because Bungie supports the community week in and week out.

That said, after Mass Effect 2 drops, my most anticipated game will probably be Halo: Reach.

[i3eyond the Circle]

Those screenshots "if real" looks great even in this off screen quality.

It definitely looks like KZ2 quality again...."if real"

But hopefully the media rain of footage and what not releases soon.

[SixZeroFour]

"if real" dont know if its killzone2 quality, but it does look much much better than the previous halo games, and the pics are unfocused and off a tv screen as well

[The Creep]

mate these low res images already look on par with killzone 2

[dktxx2]

those shots dont even look close too killzone 2 good. and theres no way it will look close to killzone 2 until its closer to being done.

[i3eyond the Circle]

First off these pics are off screen and low quality and with the naked eye you can see some drastic improvements to the entire look of this game.

You know that hazish blur KZ2 has? I see it on these weapons so here we go again. Disagree away but we will see when it drops.

Peace.

MW2 GOTY....play it.

[Rio-Hustla-Inc]

Hey Forever Flame...wake up buddy! Your dreaming-

[ASSASSYN 36o]

Master Chief WAS on reach. He was the only spartan to survive...supposedly. And the armour he was wearing on reach is not the MJOLNIR Mark IV Powered Assault Armor seen in Halo 3.

[Raider69]

What best way to bring Master Chief back on a new game engine!Just take a look at the fifth image theres no jaggies on the weapon,and on the third image the textures on the rock mountain!He is back better them ever.

[dragonelite]

The wapens are likely to be release build but the rest is easily placeholder halo is know for its big and beautiful environment.
That like the only graphical feature halo 3 can do better then some of the new games.

[luisluis1234]

hahaha you are joking right Ha; what are you trying to say ps3 is showing its age and that if natal comes out with gears 3 the ps3 is over okaoiiiii best graphchs i doubt theyll reach killzone 2 graphics.'

[kenpachi]

[NeptuneOO7]

Dear PS3 fanboys :

[squadass99]

ive seen better ships on PS3, and if thats meant to impress your seriously out of your mind

[Saaking]

I don't get it.

[Zechs34]

Ive seen that but where... OH! I KNOW! Mass Effect 1, in 2007! I win! You, in your garbage attempt at flaming w/ generic graphics, fail.

[Obama]

It's a dildo?

[The Iron Sheik]

This is from Resistance 2 that came out in 08.

Get it through your head kid, 360 will never match the PS3 in graphics.

[massvmunkee]

if you look at that pic with the lone person, perhaps that could be masterchief. then again, it could be another spartan.

[TheBand1t]

All I'mma say is....bring back the epic pistols from Halo 1.

[cyberwaffles]

hey, those graphics aren't too bad actually. nothing amazing, but they can only improve so it's looking pretty decent if true.

[I am Legend]

:)

[otherZinc]

I cant wait for more REACH news, this is great. Also, the Halo Waypoint is up on XBOX LIVE.

I think we'll be able to play as a few different Spartans in Halo:Reach. Game is going to be fantastic!

[NeptuneOO7]

Haha.

Troll'd

The picture isn't even from Halo Reach. Its a fan-made render.

[Pirateogta]

Oh, you jealous PS3 fanboys make me laugh. :) I love you guys!

[The Iron Sheik]

Jealous? Of Halo? You must be kidding. Have you ever seen a PS3 fan say they want Halo? I never have. We don't want it, let the overrated hyped crap stay on the failbox where it belongs

[chrisulloa]

Just proves his point ^

[The Iron Sheik]

You are dumber than I thought. Does the RROD hypnoitize weak minded individuals like yourself? Because that would explain a lot.

[fingazblank]

It could be any spartan II's, i wouldnt mind playing reach on how odst played out, you know playing different characters, possibly this could be the route bungie take, testing the waters with odst.

I like how they have different weapons, not seen in any of the games before, probably coz they are on reach and have testing facilites for advanced weaponry. Including covie weapons.

Heres some mind bending info for yer!!

Guess, They will be wearing Mojlnir mark VI armour, master chiefs armour from halo:ce

Master chief petty officer is a very low rank in the navy, after all the battles he has endured surely he should be a general, although special forces only allows for the top rank of colnel, in 2011 exactly 500 years later, in the halo universe john 1-17 will be born on eradinus II 2511 is he's birth year.

There was no SPARTAN-I project by the UNSC as the first Spartans were ancient Greek, remember the 300, they even showed a re-inactment of the battle of thermopalye to the young juveniles, at the base on the planet reach, that was when they was pencilled in as spartan IIs

The Master Chief has a mission to capture and control a Covenant spaceship for research and analysis, with the aid of the Pillar of Autumn, commanded by Captain Keyes. However, the mission is soon interrupted when Reach is attacked by a Covenant armada. The Master Chief and the Spartans quickly go to aid the doomed planet. Unfortunately, the battle is lost and the Spartans are assumed dead when the planet is glassed by the Covenant. The Master Chief escapes with Cortana on a starship called the Pillar of Autumn, using the slipspace coordinates she acquired from a Forerunner artifact discovered on Reach.

[jerethdagryphon]

someone knows the books and military ranking

[ZombieNinjaPanda]

No Chief please.

Chief is over played now. I want the rest of the spartans, their stories are so much more interesting.

[jack who]

the damage control is high in this one

[Deadman64]

Oh just wait. Reach doesn't come out for another year. Plenty of damage control on the way. Stay tuned

[massvmunkee]

personally i love playing as masterchief. of course i wouldnt mind playing as other spartans, but i hope the majority of the time you play as masterchief. also, since this is before halo 1, does that mean you will battle the elites again, and not see the flood since they first appeared in halo 1?

[STICKzophrenic]

Halo Wars takes place before Halo: CE and the Flood is in that, so who knows if the Flood will be in Reach.

[markbob]

Well Reach is before the elites have their change of hearts and "leave" the covenant so we should be killing them like back in Halo 1.

As long as the game takes place only on the Planet of Reach and maybe inside a ship or two then the flood should not show up.

We might still see brutes but I think we'll see mostly Elites

[oldsnayke]

Anybody ever read Halo: Fall of Reach? Well, that's the book that this game is based off of. It's a prequel.

[RockmanII7]

I'm saving every picture before/if they get taken down.

[vShinobi]

Gun detail looks amazing

[The BS Police]

But the game does look promising, the thing that grabbed me the msot graphics wise was the detail on the Warthog. Definitly a noticable diffirence in graphics between Halo 3 and Halo: Reach.

Now, I do hope that they stay away from perks and squad based gameplay.

[Xi]

That and it's still in production... And knowing bungie it could all be fake for what we know.

[The BS Police]

This could be an older build of the game, there are alot of palceholder textures al over the place from what I can tell.

[kaveti6616]

Meh. I'm really looking forward to this. But these screens are blurry and unimpressive. I'm probably one of the few people on here that was very satisfied with Halo 3's graphics. My only gripe with it is the campaign story. Lame story.

[pshizle]

Bungie got it right with the graphics!

must of been that missing X-Engine.

[Omega Zues]

I want to get hyped but those shots were way to blury. Just give me the beta.

[massvmunkee]

for any of you that do not know what halo legends is, its a new anime series based obviously on halo. i guess you could search on youtube or something but, theres a clip where masterchief is wearing some kind of like super suit add-on. and if you look at the picture where there in the office, the guy appears to be wearing something similar to it. im not to sure, what do you guys think?

[RockmanII7]

That's a very good prediction. Bungie said some things will need explaining in Halo Reach and 343 Industries said Legends will have something that will 'wow' the Halo fanbase. That could all tie in together very nicely.

[massvmunkee]

its a bit dark, but i managed to find a picture.

http://www.videogamesblogge...

[Convas]

Well well, aren't the tides reversed. If I remember correctly, a year or so ago, the persecution would be coming from our end of the spectrum. Aw well, can't say some of us Xbots didn't deserve it. But you So-Nerds must be real desperate to disparage leaked photos months in from the Actual product release. "Ha ha, the graphics are horrible." How do you know? Last I checked this wasn't an official release. I'll judge when I hear from the Horse's mouth. From what I see, these are the nervous panderings of individuals who see a hint of possibility. And believe you me, those photos have quite a bit of possibility.

Does it irk you that an 360 game might actually come close or MAYBE even match up to one of your beloved "exclusives"? Fake or Not, these photos look way different from ODST or any of the other Halo games. And again, we're still a good part of a year from launch.

So how about you quit the rabid fanboyism, and take this with a grain of salt. Because frankly you look like starving vultures picking at rocks for insects. Go play your exclusives. Their marvelous pieces of work and I'm sure you'll enjoy having your high graphical standards met. You've no time to nit pick at things like this So-Nerds. There is no time to lose!

[Domer25]

Interesting to see that they have improved the overall textures. Fake or not we shall know soon enough.

[Kermi]

The fact is, we're playing at Reach, and there were tons of Spartans there. Seeing pictures of Spartans at Reach =/= playing as Master Chief. Maybe we will, maybe we won't. If we're looking for proof, this ain't it.

[Arnon]

You know there's an obvious graphical improvement to a game when you can look at blurry, off-screen images and see it. The gun detail actually really looks well done, and this is still an extremely early stage of development, considering it's probably going to release in September 2010.

[Hayabusa 117]

Forget about the Master Chief, look what they've done to the needler! It's looks friggin' amazin'! Hope they've overhauled some other weapons too!

[maniactadpole]

but i guess i was wrong

[PISSIO]

master chief >>>>> ghost of sparta. fact.

[josephayal]

ANOTHER HALO? WHATS NEXT? HALO VS MARIO?

[Tyetan]

Spartans all wear the same armor you tards.

[zerocrossing]

thats true but im sure to avoid confusion there will be obviouse minor diferences in each spartans armor. id say the spartan in front is the master cheif but we will have to see

[zerocrossing]

its possible there could be a squad based system used in the new game given that there are i think 5 spartans now, maybe there will be the ability to switch from spartan 1 to spartan 2 during play a system like that if done propperly could work great.

[jerethdagryphon]

ignoring multipayer, it should have been a dropin drop out coop campaign with each playter taking the roll of one of the spartens with there own abilitys
kelly had speed fred had strength, linda was a super nsiper,

the chief was a jack of all trades wasnt the fastest or strongest but was the most lucky.

thats how id have done it

[dragonelite]

I believe the leaker said there was drop in&out in singleplayer.

[PS360PCROCKS]

screw the hand I'm looking at the visuals. The gun models look top notch, the backgrounds look like standard halo

[Halo_Reach]

Long live to the king of FPS!!

MW2 wont long that long!!

Halo Reach Best Ever!!!

[Mizz_mai]

this is no ps3 killer as halo doesnt sell consoles check how many millions of consoles odst sold...oh wait a minute none...lol

[kevinx1000]

say that again and think of halo 1, 2 and 3

[kevinx1000]

the glove on the picture looks the same as master chief's, so it's master chief...

all spartan gloves look the same!

[Son0Fsocal]

All you dumb nerds are all wrong.. It's megman.. If you don't know
