The Halo series was great, and as long as they keep bringing new ideas to the table its fine by me.
Yeah, that's true I guess. Good point.

I just might have to go back and reread those when this comes out. Did they have their shield technology by the time Reach fell? Im pretty sure they did...

Xbox 360... stopped reading there.

I hope they port this to the PC, which in imo are the only good games, they should make it for windows 7 only or something like they did with halo 2 and vista. Or maybe that was because DX10 only

I wish they would have released the games by the storyline, meaning releasing Reach first, then Halo, Halo 2, ODST, and Halo 3. I feel like they are going to throw in a lot of weapons that were never mentioned in the novels like the BR, SMG, Spartan Laser, and power ups.

The BR gets a pass, sort of, because a prototype was used is Contact Harvest, but I feel like Bungie will write off everything being a prototype.

Not sure if I'll like that.

The first book, as it tells HOW the Spartan program was developed and all of who was involved, including the creator of Cortana.
