I knew this is how the story would unfold, The arbiter is going to create an alliance with the humans to overthrow the prophets. Hunter will be on your team too probably

I started thinking this at the end of Halo 2, I knew I was correct!

I like the look of the other characters in their halo 3ness, albeit a, not so detailed view...Thanks to the blacked ness

All of the these things you've listed were known before halo3.com updated.

Johnson appears to wear Spatan-style armor, furthering the case that he is/was a Spartan I. [See: HGN]

I think this is also the only time Bungie has officially said what the Gravemind is...neat.

Indeed. This is the official confirmation of what we've seen tiny bits of in the Vidoc and leaked videos. Good thing too, The M6C sucks ass.

Edit: We've all jumped the gun on that one. The Halo3.com site is run by Microsoft, not Bungie. The pistol is actually the M6G, not the M6D. It has no scope.

I haven't seen any other issues addressed, but we shall see if there are any other errors.

Well, if you look at the "humans" picture (a picture of a marine really

) it has extremly similar armour to Johnson...I only say this because the most distinguishing feature that you could have noticed IMO on Johnson is his leg armour, which is also featured on said marine...
But of course, you may have noticed something else that would have revealed so, I'd like to know coz well, I want to

I would agree with you on the basis that he is invincible in Halo 2 and is reborn numerous times in Halo 1

*Twich*

Heh heh ... and so it begins.

Interesting

Scotty, the main thing I was looking at on Johnson was the large points on his back/shoulders, unlike those of marines', his body armor has the characteristic area of the MJOLNIR armor. But yeah, there's very strong evidence throughout the games and books as to his inclusion in a secret, likely Spartan-I program.

As for the Wraith comment, Insane: Frankie said that in Starry Night, there were "new Wraiths" among the Brutes. This seems that they are the Brute Wraiths.

masterskill: Group at the end with the wraiths(?); brutes, or some new folk?
Frankie: Brutes
Frankie: One has a hammer
Frankie: Those are Wraiths
Frankie: New Wraiths

You realise tural the original spartans noted in the books a few times are those from the anchient greek times.

Tural · Post by **Tural** » Wed May 02, 2007 1:56 pm

You realize that's not what I'm talking about, right? There were three SPARTAN projects. The SPARTAN-Is, the SPARTAN-IIs, and the SPARTAN-IIIs.

Ah, ive only read the novels "fall of reach", "first srike" and "ghosts of onyx".

So the Tank learned a new trick too?

If you notice, I did not address both vehicles, I specifically singled out the Wraith. Your guess is as good as mine when it comes to the Scorpion.

The Scorpion now comes with an Easy Bake Oven.

Kill them with frosting I say!

Give them such a sugar rush so that they explode

Ka-bloowe! 11

Halo3.com also says the BR has a 12 shot clip and thats what it is, 12 shots, 36 rounds per clip just to clear it up to people who didn't understand that

Somthing i've noticed with the Scorpion...

On the halo3.com picture, look at where you would normally enter the Scorpion. Looks like there's now a turret of some sort (most likely a chaingun) near the seating compartments. Mabye that worthless second seat has been converted to a secondary gunner's seat? That could be a POSSIBLE reason why there is no report for it. Pure speculation here.

Here is the storyline:
Join up with the elites, smack around some brutes, kill the Prophet of Truth, stop the Flood that have escaped from under the Earth's crust (they DID make connections from Earth->Halo didn't they?) Something goes ka-blooie, the elites leave to go create their own civilization, and you are stuck without a job. Poor Chiefy.
