Will Halo 3 include other playable characters besides the Chief?

UPDATE: The below was written in early 2007. Approximately two months before release, Bungie announced that Halo 3 will feature cooperative play via split screen (two players per box) as well as system link and Xbox Live (four players per game). In a four-player game, the host players the Master Chief, and the other players are the Arbiter and two other Elite warriors.

Will Halo 3 include other Spartans?

UPDATE: The below was written early in 2007. By mid-summer 2007, most of Halo 3's feature list was known; to date there is no mention of other Spartans, and the four-player cooperative feature uses the Chief, the Arbiter, and two Elite warriors as characters.

This is a perennial favorite question ever since the Halo backstory in Fall of Reach revealed that other Spartans did, in fact, survive.

Bungie so far has not announced anything specific regards to plot or gameplay features.

What platforms will Halo 3 run on?

Bungie has only announced it for the Xbox 360. It is so extremely unlikely that it will be backported to the original Xbox that I am inclined to call this an impossibility. I doubt the original Xbox's hardware could handle the game at all, and I doubt Microsoft, Bungie, or anyone else besides someone determined not to buy an Xbox 360 would be pleased by a version of the game that could.

Is Halo 3 the last, final, ultimate Halo game ever?

Bungie addresses this in their own FAQ but is a tiny bit ambiguous. The announcement press release seems to indicate yes; their FAQ equivocates, saying that Halo 3 concludes the current story arc (pun most likely intended; looks like Bungie finally hired Stuntmutt). There is every indication that Bungie has been undergoing fatigue over the Halo franchise since crunch time on Halo 2, and I would be very surprised if Bungie did not want to work on something entirely different after Halo 3, or if indeed Bungie has a second team quietly working on something else right now.

A look at halo 3's CG trailer music and halo 2's main theme

Mon, 12/25/2006 - 00:29 by Spartan182

Ok first of all I have recently found out that I will have a lot of free time after all, thus I will still be on this site a lot.

Anyway moving on to the subject. There have been several requests about a transcription for the halo 3 cg trailer's background music. Well I was not able to make it out so clearly but I can tell you that it is only the first part of the halo 1 main theme played a little faster. And that is that.

Frankie talks to Xboxyde.

Fri, 12/22/2006 - 11:19 by SIRBOE

[u]Very nice read, Frankie sounds less sarcastic than usual.[/u];) 12. Will Halo 3 feature an online Coop Mode? Frank O Connor: There are quite a few things that didn’t make it into Halo 2 so we get asked if they’ll be in Halo 3. If they didn’t make it into Halo 2 there’s a very good reason for that. Things like the Mongoose have made it into Halo 3, but we haven’t made any announcements about a coop mode yet. 13. Are you influenced by other games like Gears of War, would you consider implementing some things like the Gears of War cover system in Halo 3?

Halo 3 WILL have dual swords?

Thu, 12/21/2006 - 15:43 by Spartan182

UPDATE: I just got a call from my cousin today saying that he just read an xbox official magazine. In it he saw an article about halo 3. It has a confirmation that bungie will put dual swords in halo 3. Although I personally have not seen the article, he has told me that he will email me a pic of the page and then i'll submitt it here if it is true.

Halo 3 will have dual swords??? Or is it just another thing that your teammates can do that you cant (dive,wallcover,hit without droping weapon when dualweilding, etc.). I recently watched the new brute documentary video on halo 3.
