Spoiler:

Okay, I just finished it on Easy and the ending is ****ing stupid.

It's just "...finish this fight *roll credits".

I want to fight aboard the ForeRunner ship and kill some stupid drone thingies, and butcher some more Prophets and do some more fighting on Earth.

Also, what the **** are they going to do now? They either stop the Halos and Gravemind consumes everything, or they fail and everyone dies.

I hate them for making me say this, but: I'm definitely getting Halo 3, even though it'll probably mean buying an X-Box 2 solely for that purpose.

****ers.

Learn to use spoiler tags. And for what it's worth, I mostly agree. // Setekh

Just wait till later in the summer, when my other friends are getting another Xbox, I'm getting a link cable, and the 8 of us are going to go nuts.

I agree it's a bit sad when you can't get a few players together, I usually drag a few guys home after church on Sunday evening. Works a dream since none of us have Live.

*cry*
EDIT: Wait... I have Live.

Bah. I was vague enough.

Anyways: What was with that thing after the 20 minutes of credits? Shouldn't that whole place have been a giant ball of plasma?

Deepblue · **Reply #129 on:** November 23, 2004, 12:49:10 pm

Only 2 more days until I get it...

Janos · **Reply #130 on:** November 23, 2004, 12:51:55 pm

Cortana is betraying us!

Or then not.

Spoiler:

Having the entire life of galaxy wiped out by Halo Effect vs. trying to take on and fight the Flood, maybe figuring out what they want and so on. Even if latter had like 0.1% chance of succeeding, which one would humans choose? [Even if it meant the complete assimilation of the entire life by the goddamn ****ing ****eating Flood LOL LIBRARY

Janos · **Reply #131 on:** November 23, 2004, 12:55:42 pm

OK, here's the most cheap, bland and dissappointing ending I can figure out for the entire Halo series.

Chief travels back in time and activates the first Halo ring after having kicked some SERIOUS FLOOD ASS, therefore eliminating the Flood/Forerunners completely and sacrificing himself for greater good of Galaxy!!

meh

Deepblue · **Reply #132 on:** November 23, 2004, 12:58:58 pm

I dont understand... But I will soon.

an0n · **Reply #133 on:** November 23, 2004, 01:04:47 pm

The best ending would be one of the Oracles ressurecting a proper Reclaimer to make sure the Halo's are fired. Then you have to fight your way through the Flood as the Arbiter to do something to screw the Reclaimers invincibility, then fight your way through Brute/Prophet forces as Master Chief to reach the ****er.

You slaughter everything, kill a few ForeRunner defence systems, stab a few Prophets in the head, then fight the Reclaimer.

Deepblue · **Reply #134 on:** November 23, 2004, 01:07:20 pm

Wait, I thought the MC was the reclaimer, thats what 343 GS called him.

an0n · **Reply #135 on:** November 23, 2004, 01:10:50 pm

He called him a Reclaimer, implying it was a job or species and not a particular person.

Setekh · **Reply #136 on:** November 24, 2004, 06:02:22 am

On the term "Reclaimer":

Spoiler:

"Reclaimer" is almost certainly the Forerunner (or the Forerunner AI's) designation for humans. In the Halo novel The Flood, the Master Chief and 343GS pass by a dead marine Sergeant. "Oh, that was the other Reclaimer," 343GS comments.

Also, in Halo 2 when Tartarus (the Brute chieftain) is trying to physically force Keyes to insert the Index and activate Delta Halo, 343GS cautions: "Please be careful, this Reclaimer is fragile!"

Finally, on the back of one of the Halo 2 'manuals', there is a log of "Reclaimer terminology" for the species making up the Covenant, almost certainly referring to general human slang.

Why?

an0n · **Reply #137 on:** November 24, 2004, 10:14:50 am

Because:

Spoiler:

Cortana was supposed to overload the ships' drives and destroy the city along with the Flood.

Spoiler:

I think we see high charity in Halo3, maybe in earths orbit

And you're basing this guess on what, exactly?
