Halo 3

Yeahh amazed i didn’t write about this sooner? :O

This wont be an essay. I honestly don’t need to write one.

I will say this is going to contain massive spoilers and so will the comments i expect, so go away if you don’t want it ruined.

Halo for me lived up to expectations and MY personal hype. It’s a series I’ve played from start to end and anyone who played the original should look back and see what it’s become. It’s amazing just how it’s evolved.

It’s gone from gorilla warfare against Elites to a complex story involving prophets, elites, flood, brutes, forerunners, humans all waging war, forming alliances and fighting for a struggle over the universe.

Sound dorky? Duh, damn right it is.

It’s a fitting finish to the series and the ending:

I’ve seen get bashed by a lot of people. I don’t see why, seeing the Chief and arbitor working together that nod of respect towards each other was a great moment, if you ask me.

Seeing the “117″ scratched onto the memorial stone was a fantastic touch too, although i don’t think they should have revealed the chief was still alive. But i suppose if they didn’t do that they couldn’t reveal the planet that the Chief was slowly drifting towards.

My guess is it’s a forerunner homeworld and there’s going to be some shocking new story to uncover there, i just hope it doesn’t involve the flood. I hope there long gone.

Thanks Bungie for making such a fantastic series, you did your community well and it’s clear you put your all into it.

Really hope i can see a Halo 4 on the 360, although i somehow doubt it’s going to happen. Said it was going to be short eh? I don’t need to put anything else if you played H1/2 then you need H3. It’s come along way. Go get it.

    Actually, if you listen to the Moniter, before you have to kill him, he tells Chief that “You were my creator”.

    Meaning Humans are the forerunners, so if it is a forerunner homeworld, then it’s essentially another earth, and I doubt that :P

    WELL actually the forerunners was very advanced, they CREATED the halos and the arc.

    I know he said we was the forerunners and that’s the mysterious part. Humanity isn’t as ahead as the forerunners was so are we some sort of civlization off spring or what?

    Are we a colony that got separated? Either way the forerunners, the advanced ones at least, the ones that made the halos and things are long gone. What humans are to forerunners is a mystery, as far as i know.

    Mmm true, so it could be a very advanced human world in a seperate galaxy, nearer the Arc.

    At least it leaves the whole thing wide open to possibilities.

    Gravemind died with all the flood (hopefully) I’m tired of fighting those.

    I heard someone say today the planet you see is the one from Marathon. Could the two stories come together?

    Marathon is supposed to be set hundreds of years before Halo though but that could be explained away by MC being frozen.
