Game: Halo 3

[Yukimura]

I saw this Trailer before I saw that disclaimer and didn't know that it wasn't actual gameplay...guess I nearly shit myself for nothing. But it looked fantastic and sounded fantastic and generally made me want to buy a 360 just for it, as Halo CE made me buy an X-box.

As to the comment about the Master Chiefs history, if you really want to know read the books. The first and third reveal a lot of interesting information about what happened before and after Halo CE, the third being my favorite b/c it explains how Johnson survived a thermonuclear explosion, as well as why the Covenant hate the Chief as much as they do.

The second isn't as important since it's just the story of Halo CE and it was written by a different author who wasn't as imaginative as Eric Nylund. I hope they get Nylund the Halo 3 book but maybe he doesn't like having the whole plot pre-dictated for him.

EDIT: I just checked and he did write a fourth book that details the happenings during and after the events of Halo 2 called Halo: Ghosts of Onyx. So if you're a fan of the story behind the Haloverse in addition to destroying Covenant and Flood get yourselves out there read it!
