OMG Halo 3 is coming out! first of all, are the humans really the forerunners and the ark the covenant were looking for was hidden on Earth? Did the humans make the Halos? Did the humans make the covenant? Any theories please post...
Im not a halo know it all, i havent read the books but ive finished both games. Theyre good stories but if you wanna know whats gonna happen in the next games you have to look at them as you would a film. Ive read other forums where people nag about "are forunners carbon based," and s*** like that which just pisses me off cause no one gives a f*** about bulls*** like that crap. Anyway, look at the games and pick out the elements.
Flood.
Covenant.
Ark.
Forerunners.
Sound familiar. No? Then ur an idiot. Its from the bible. So anyway the forunners were gang banging with the flood but the flood were bad so they built the Halos to kill the flood. The Ark (Earth) is a safe haven (just like noah's ark) for all life in the galaxy, so its protected. I have no f***in idea about the covenant but if you read the bible u could probs find something there. Anyway yeah the forerunners are humans, the Earth is safe from the Halos and the flood. I dunno read revelations about the end of the world, u can probs pick out a few things there if u can really be f***ed.
Theory:
In game 3 chief may go back in time. In game 1 sparky says to chief "Last time u were hear u asked me...if it was my choice, would i do it, after having considerable time think.... and then he craps on about somethin els"
maybe chief goes back in time somehow in an attempt to save the world and something happens there, if so its a good twist. Maybe it was one of the forerunners or something and sparky doesnt mean chief in particular but last time "you were here" could mean last time a human was there.
Another twist that i wouldnt put past the makers of the game, and one which i dont like is that chief is the saviour. Its tacky but maybe thats where theyre taking it, u know, theyve had the flood and the ark. Theyve got the covenant, maybe chief is a parallel of moses or jesus. Maybe its the second coming of the Chief, the same way in which Jesus is supposed to come at the apocalypse.
The bible also predicts that there will be an antichrist so that could be guilty spark or the prophets, or that fugly flood dude on delta halo. Look for stuff on the four horsemen. The gates of hell are sposed to open and reveal all sorts of fugly monsters, this could be the release of the flood. From my understanding the bible predicts that many jews will convert to christianity or at least recognise christ at the apocolypse, this could be the split in the covenant.
I have read the books and beat the games, so I could tell you, if I remembered everything. So here it goes.
Covenent-a group of aliens with the same religion. Sounds dumb but its in the book. They want to find the Ark and activiate all the Halos destroying everything when that happens.
Forerunners-made the Halos and the Arks. Made them to contain/destroy the Flood.
Ark-Relic in Covenent religion. It is the Earth or in it.
_Edit_
Some questions could be answered in the new Halo book, Halo: Ghosts of Coral, being released on October 31, 2006 or in the graphic novel being released in July.
