It isn't like it doesn't have some potential grounding in fact based on what we've read in the books on slipspace and the mysteries around it.

I believe in ghosts of the onyx, kurt and crew were able to see people trapped in slipspace and it was mentioned that even if a nuclear bomb were to go off, they'd still be completely fine since they aren't necessarily really there even though they can be seen.

So it IS possible.

More advanced knowledge of the dangers that are out there maybe :)

Maybe he would come to the conclusion that he should save Johnson, Miranda and Captain Keyes with the opportunity he now has.

Bah it sounds sloppy, but hey you never know it could work.

Ok what the hell happened at the end of Halo 3 on Legendary to make everyone on the Bungie forums think this is the case?

Some kind os Rift thing happened and the ship sliced in half, this is what has caused the Bungie forums memebers to all go for the chife jumping angle.
But who knows?, i really hope it is more gritty and realistic, but knowing Bungie we will find out nothing on this game for AGES!!

Now that I re watch the Halo 3 ending, there's no way in hell that the bluish light that came from that planet or the sound has anything to do with Reach.

It's absolutely the millions upon millions of Sentinels that were activated on the Onyx Planet about to attack the ship that the Chief and Cortana are on. The sound even fits with the description of the sound they made in the book.

They most likely did that combination attack that they are known for. It's the same way they caused Kelly and Dr. Halsey's ship to crash land on the planet.

Sounds like something JJ Abrams would write.
Heh I thought exactly the same thing!

Because the Covenant went back in time to kill him on Reach so that we wouldn't get to be around for Halo 2 and Halo 3. They'll send back a sentient AI called the T-1000 to do the job which will be a chain of boss battles in the game.

I thought that was just common sense.
Why would they beta test an engine they've already used for 2 games? (H3 and ODST)
I hate the Halo 3 engine with a passion, and I hope they've come up with something more stable and better looking. I hope the gameplay is different from H3/ODST or at least heavily improved and upgraded.

I can understand hoping the gameplay will be different, but hoping that they "at least heavily improve and upgrade" the gameplay seems kind of ridiculous. What would you have them do?

That would be an unmitigated disaster!

I'm hoping they get back to the more open ended level design that they had in Halo 1. Sadly I'm not sure the setting allows for driving round mysterious new worlds (ala "Halo" and "Silent Cartographer") but expansive war zone with it all kicking off is probably doable.

Except for the inclusion of a sprint button, I'd be so upset if that happened.

What do you mean more stable?, the engine is one of the most stable out there.

Stable how? Framerate? Online performance? Sure it doesn't crash, but there are plenty of areas where it could be improved.
