Is Chief really dead? This fan’s perspective.

The loss of Master Chief

With those words, it was proclaimed that on the date October 27 2560, the Master Chief has died.

Walk with me, as I explore a possible Halo without Master Chief…and with him still in the fight!

First….that date if true is 2 years removed from the timeline of Halo 5 Guardians, which is 2558. In fact, Halo 5 is just 6 months after Halo 4. I’ve heard that the date was meant to be 2558. I find that a HUGE error if the video proclaims 2560, when it’s 2558. Doubtful 343 would make that kind of mistake, at this point in the game. (Pun intended) Continue reading

HUNT the Truth Season 2 Episode 2 From Fire to Blood

HtT S2E2-2 intro

A character that has appeared in the Halo comics makes her return in this episode of Hunt the Truth. A very POWERFUL character…tumblr_nvgablWVY41uokpa1o1_1280

The human language doesn’t have a word big enough for the thing on Conrad’s Point. “Pit” or “hole” or “crater” – they’re not big enough. “Impossible,” maybe. And yet there it was. Horrible and possible all at once.

A city lies in ruins, Maya meets a madwoman, and the Colonies mourn the death of a hero.

      S2.02. FROM FIRE TO BLOOD

Okay, so you’ve listened to this episode yes? (If not, don’t go further as there will be spoilers)

Fero (Maya) really put herself at risk, huh? Well, really ONI did that to her. And killing off Ari? WOW! Ilsa Vain’s appearance isn’t completely unexpected, given her presumed escape in the Halo comics.

Conrad’s Point is a location that was shown in a hologram in the Fireteam Osiris intro. I think it’s a little odd that Black Box has an English accent. Hmm, is that an homage to Jarvis from Iron Man??

It’s definitely no surprise that ONI would hit the NCA (New Colonial Alliance), even with their operatives still at the location.

This half mile crater though…Likely the spot where a Guardian will come out of. Well, that’s my guess anyway, based on the E3 2013 trailer.

Chatting with Josh Holmes fro 343

This is a reblog from bestgamerever.co.uk:

We sit down with Josh Holmes from 343 Industries and ask him to answer some questions from the Halo community.

Halo 5: Guardians is less than a month away, and in spite of the approaching launch, Josh Holmes has taken some time out of his schedule to answer some questions from our community of Halo fanatics. Originally we had quite a lot more submitted, but I’ve narrowed it down to the best ones, as well as culling the ones that we know may not have an answer available until much closer to launch. He’s a busy man after all, and we don’t want to waste his time.

Without further ado, let’s see what Josh has to say:

BGE: We’ve seen Team Slayer and CTF get some love in Arena – will other Halo  gametypes make their way to a hardcore setting? Double Team or Assault for example?

All currently known Halo 5 Helmets! (and explanations of many of the names of the helmets)

Be sure to click on the pic for a bigger version. Oh, and take your time looking at them and their names…

Halo 5 Helmets

That’s 175 helmets folks!!!

There are 70 unique helmets. The other 105 are variant skins of those helmets.

The ones with the diagonal gold bars are Legendary helmets. Harder to come by. Note these are both Blue team and Fireteam Osiris’ helmets as well as Helioskrill and Nightfall.

Here is the list of helmets in alphabetical order (and please if you repost this, give halofanforlife.com credit and relink to here, as it took me awhile to alphabetize, research, and type this out, thanks) Continue reading

HUNT the Truth Season 2 Episode 1: Cube B-349

Under Glasstumblr_nv70pdFTjh1uokpa1o1_1280

Poor Benjamin Giraud. Still hunting the truth. There was still a shred of hope in him. But now that’s gone too. Hard to tell, through the blood.

A missing man appears on Midnight, “anomalies” appear in the Colonies, and Maya receives her new assignment.
