Nice to hear; despite the jaded nature of some boardies concerning Halo, it's a very stylish and unique franchise.

Left 4 Dead 2 was announced as well. Now if only TMP would make toys of THAT to go with the Halo toys... :p

Will Master Chief make an appearance in this game?

My guess is this game is a prequel, when they start the Spartan program. You control John-117

Oh mah god...WOOOHOOO! I was just hoping for some ODST stuff, but man...a new game...thats just awesome. Plus I love the sound of it, the Halo expanded universe is great.

John (Master Chief) isn't part of the the larger group of Spartans that that actually go down to defend Reach. He, and two other Spartans launch an assault on a space station in orbit to get the NAV data out of a ship docked there so the Covenant do not acquire it. As John, makes it back to the Pillar of Autumn, contact with the ground team is lost, and the planet starts getting glassed by the Covenant. The Pillar of Autumn makes a partially blind slipspace jump....

Depending on what they do, I can see John making a cameo appearance, but I would think the character you play as is part of the ground team (most likely Fred, who is made leader of Red Team for this mission). And depending on how far they go, John does make it back to Reach inbetween Halo and Halo 2. They could save that portion of First Strike for a second prequel-sequel.

In the teaser you hear Spartan 320(female) and 259(male)...

I see 4 Spartans and a human... most likely for the Co-op campaign.. I think it's awesome they're using the books.. can't wait to see where this goes...

EDIT: saw this on Bnet:
Ready to enlist? Sign up early by pre-ordering your copy of Halo 3: ODST at select retailers and get a token to unlock Sgt. Johnson for use in Firefight. Oh... oops, that's ODST.

Seeing final images of the ODST squad in the game makes me eager for "The Rookie" in series 6. I hope that somewhere down the road we will see an exclusive set w/the entire squad, similar to the GoW one.

Oh yea that's right. He wasn't on the ground team when the Covenant attacked Reach.

I'm still on the second book when Master Chief rescuing someone in the ship (forgot the name MC's rescuing).

My jaw hit the ground when I heard about this! It's good to hear that Bungie's still working on making the Halo universe even more epic.

Looks like the Halo Franchise is going to live forever (I hope).

09/22/09 can't come fast enough! :)

I hope that when it says that by pre ordering the game you unlock sergeant Johnson for Firefight(For those of you who havent seen it, its like Horde from GoW. For those of you who dont know about THAT, its a mode where you fight waves of enemies to gain points) that it means the other ODSTs will be unlockable for that mode as well. Romeo looks pretty badass.

Since you can see them in the screens, seems pretty likely you can use all the ODSTs in that mode :P

Halo gets better and better and MCP has the keys to halo toy nirvana.


I'd say this most definitely cements the production of halo toys for a while.

People don't see Halo as the Universe that it actually is. Halo is one of those stories that can just keep going. And if it keeps bringing Bungie money,... Why the hell would they stop making them?

The campaign was quite short. Great story but still really quick play through. Firefight will be a welcome addition and help replay value. I have not yet played multi so I can't speak on it. Side note: Interesting that they barely show V.I.S.R. mode in the trailer.

I posted it in this board because I know that with a new game comes new figures, is that ok with you?

oh, it's fine with me.....however, you are posting about a game in the toys board......and there has been no toys announced, or even mentioned for this game in your thread.....

Thats ok, technically it is in the wrong section, but in my opinion new games means new figures, also when I come on this board this is really the only part I come into, so I suppose it's for the boardies like me :)

The Rookie isn't from the new game announced at E3

Any talk of a new halo has implied speculation of figures since we know MCF has the license for the halo universe.

Techically you're wrong.

























IT'S THE RIGHT BOARD, WRONG FORUM if even that.


Here's the supposed right thread in the right forum on the right board. LINK (http://board.spawn.com/forums/showthread.php?t=509923)
