Halo 4 New Details Send Spark New Rumors
After months of intense speculation about the next Halo project from Bungie; a new video is making its rounds around the web. The latest video depicts master chief along with Cortana. The video shows past Halo characters and plays on storylines that may have remained unresolved at the end of Halo 3. The video also makes it clear that we have no seen the last of master chief and offers a few additional hints at a possible new storyline. The new storyline will supposedly revolve around a completely new mission. Earth might not even play a role in the upcoming adventure which can potentially see master chief ending up very far away from home. Bungie in recent months has refused to fan any additional speculation but if the ending of Halo 3 offers any hint, then we certainly have not seen the last of Master Chief and his super hot Artificial Intelligence partner Cortana.
With the emergence of the new video from Bungie which does a lot to poke fun at the history of the franchise; Halo 4 is set to make a possible release within the next 2-3 years. A secret Halo project (not Halo 4) has also been hinted by Bungie whom appear to be in the early stages of developing this new title. The title is said to feature the struggle on earth from the prospective of the Marines. Very possible users would take control of a Marine Gears of style and begin plowing down baddies with anything from Chainsaws to some really cool twisted metal type automobiles(ok this one might be a stretch but we can always dream). The Game which was rumored to have been pulled from debuting at E3 08 will supposedly be shown in a more focused event where the game can be fully explained. Speculation is running high that the game will be shown off later this year at the Tokyo Game Show however no comments by Microsoft or Bungie has been made at this time.
Regardless of things to possibly come, we already do know of the very cool Real Time Strategy game currently in development for the Xbox 360 which features numerous Spartans. The game is said to explore the fall of reach; which was the Spartans home world before getting damn near Nuked by the covenant. Users will likely control groups of Spartan soldiers while they attempt to fight off the onslaught of the covenant (I got to say while I love Halo, since we know that the covenant ultimately wipe out all type 1 Spartans definitely will put a damper on the ending). With all said however it appears that we will be rich in things Halo for years to come, also the video suggest that the ending of Halo 3 was almost certainly not the true ending of the series and if anything might have been only a new beginning and turning point for the series.
