New Halo game announced to be in the works - www.halowars.com

It isn't made by bungie unfortunately, and it has alot of inconsitencies plot wise at this time, but it looks like it'd be a cool game. Gives a chance for all of those stradegy nuts to get into Halo (Art Maybe? :P)

... you beat me to postin this,
I saw this trailer not knowing what it was and though it was the movie's first trailer.
I mean this Could be a movie trailer, (if you see the large version). it's goin g to be hard to do it, seeing as the only good 360 RTS game soo far is LotR: battle for Middle Earth 2.

Why? The halo movie is only going to add to the series, as long as it's true to the story, and well done.

Yeah, it's going to be good. Also, there is another game which is going to be named later in the Halo series.

My theory: RPG.

well i got a comment on the trailer, look at the guns the UNSC marines use. The site says halo wars takes place before halo 1 but in the movie they have battle rifles. This is just like the Halo 3 trailer where MC has a assult rifle there.

I said there was inconsitancies.

The battle rifle will probably be switched for the game - remember, this is a pre-rendered trailer, and has no reflection on the actual game performance.

Bungie said that the Assault rifle Master Chief is carrying in the Halo 3 trailer may not be the classic one - it only looks like it. Remember, the assault rifle didn't just dissapear - other weapons were just introduced in addition.

Just read what you said a bout the Halo Movie, have you noticed every game movie sucks, (especially the first FF movie). Ill give it one thing the current dircetor is peter jackson, or at least thats the roumor, and his movies are all good.
But the movie is listed to be the the end of fall of reach and the entire the flood  books. Why,

FFVII: AC was good, and I liked DOOM and the two Resident Evil movies, so not all are game movies are poor.

Exactly. Halo actually has a story to work with, so it should do well.

Guess what I just Heard...
Peter Jackson will be writring the story for Halo 3 , but back on topic. I think since Halo and Halo 2 Have been done, They should have Halo Wars Time period in the movie not 2552. 2552 Has been done let the games use it. Plus in the movie what actor will want to play a person who dosent show their face.

C-3PX2, you clearly have time for this so why don't you manage your fantasy football roster?  You are 2-2 and have a strong team so please actually play since you did sign up.  Inactive teams aren't fun.

"The way of war is a way of deception. When able, feign inability; when deploying troops, appear not to be. When near, appear far; when far, appear near. Lure with bait; strike with chaos. If the enemy is full, be prepared. If strong, avoid him. If he is angry, disconcert him. If he is weak, stir him to pride. If he is relaxed, harry him; if his men are harmonious, split them. Attack where he is unprepared; appear where you are unexpected. This is victory in warfare; it cannot be divulged in advance. Victory belongs to the side that scores most in the temple calculations before battle. Most spells victory; least spells defeat; none, surer defeat. I see it in this way, and the outcome is apparent." -- Sun Tzu

Art, stay on topic :P

Putting it in 2552 wouldnt work out well - It gives them less room to work with, and more chance to contradict something. The campaign on reach is the only notable scenario to work with in that time.

Offtopic: Art, I forgot i did make one, ill start working with it.
Back on topic: 2552 is the year which halo 1 (and prbly halo2)Take place. I think they should make it in the begining years when the UNSC first discover other life, and go to war with it.

...

That is when they are making it. You suggested they make it in Halo 1/2 time. You just disagreed with your own point.

Im getting confused....

Im going to try to clear this up =

The Timeline is this:

On October 7, 2525, A UNSC battle group consisting of the UNSC Heracles, UNSC Arabia and UNSC Vostok entered the Harvest system and discovered that everything on the planet has been completely incinerated and the surface melted down to glass. In orbit around the remains of the colony world is a single alien ship, which proceeded to attack the battle group, destroying both Arabia and Vostok and badly damaging the Heracles. Intercepted communications identify the enemy as The Covenant. The message "Your destruction is the will of the Gods... and we are their instrument" is broadcast in UNSC language.

Vice Admiral Preston Cole mobilizes the largest fleet in human history to retake Harvest. Cole's war fleet engages the alien warships responsible for the decimation of the colony, scoring a victory (though the battle cost Cole two-thirds of his battle group). Only a last minute tactical inspiration turned the tide of battle. After returning to Earth, Cole-promoted to Admiral-learns that a number of outlying colonies have been destroyed, leaving behind no survivors. Cole begins to move his fleet around, trying to intercept the invaders. Ground and ship-to-ship battles begin in earnest, raging throughout the Outer Colonies.

By 2535, Cole's forces are hammered, despite his excellent leadership and tactical brilliance. It is simply a matter of being outgunned; Covenant kill ratios tend to top four to one in ship-to-ship combat. By 2535, virtually all of the Outer Colony worlds have been destroyed by the Covenant. The Cole Protocol is established by military order: all human vessels must ensure that Covenant forces do not find Earth.

In 2536, Covenant forces begin to swarm into the Inner Colonies. For several years the war falls into a pattern: humans win isolated battles, typically during ground operations, but at a horrible cost. In space combat, the humans are losing at a precipitous rate, and one by one, the colonies fall.

By 2552, human forces are reduced to handful of planets near Earth, with Reach as their last stonghold. Covenant forces follow a UNSC destroyer with a sophisticated tracking device to Reach, and deploy a three-hundred ship fleet against the planet. Despite the heroic efforts of the human defenders and their massive orbital MAC stations, they are unable to prevent Covenant forces from landing on the planet, disabling planetary power generators, and leaving Reach helpless. The majority of the planet is glassed, and the fleet defending it is nearly totally wiped out.

Shortly after this battle, the Master Chief, on board the Pillar of Autumn, participated in the events of Halo: Combat Evolved. In the aftermath, he and Cortana, along with a small squad of human survivors and SPARTANs captured a Covenant flagship and pillaged the technologies within. In the process, they discover a massive fleet of Covenant ships heading toward the Sol system, and proceed to sabotage and destroy the fleet in a daring and costly assault.

On October 12, 2552, UNSC defense forces over Earth engaged the Prophet of Regret's fleet and destroyed most of it, in the process discovering that the Covenant had not actually located Earth, and instead had apparently stumbled across it unexpectedly. During the ground battle in New Mombasa, Regret makes an in-atmosphere slipspace jump, which is followed by the Master Chief and the frigate UNSC In Amber Clad to a second Halo. After the events on Delta Halo, the Master Chief returns to Earth on board a Forerunner ship to find it under attack by massive, overwhelming Covenant forces.


I think the movei shoukld take place in the  October 7, 2525  area.

Does that help show my view?

Offtopic: Art, I forgot i did make one, ill start working with it.
Back on topic: 2552 is the year which halo 1 (and prbly halo2)Take place. I think they should make it in the begining years when the UNSC first discover other life, and go to war with it.


You said 2552 - Considering that is also a signicant date, you probably just mistyped and it was taken to be the fall of reach.

They are making the game around 2525 - Read the FAQ on the Halo Wars website.

      I'M STILL CONFUSED       

OK, I think the Halo Movie should take place during 2525  during the first fights with the coventant.
The news ive heard says that the halo movie will take place during 2552.

Did that clear up my view???

Well, the topic was Halo Wars :P

What I've heard of the movie, it's going to reflect The Flood (Halo One)/First Strike.

First Strike was a pretty awesome book. I can't wait for the game and the movie. Directed by Peter Jackson, I don't know how they can do the movie wrong...

Well I can, but I'd rather not think of all the ways. It's Peter Jackson!
