Check our forums for some of the best Halo speculation and theories.

Marty O’Donnell (President of O’Donnell/Salvatori Total Audio) is Geek of the Week at Gamasutra. Total Audio are doing all the music, voices, and 3d sound design for Halo. Nice quote from the Gamasutra article:

Favorite Geeky Dream:
I dreamt that my music was played right in the middle of Steve Jobs’s keynote address at MacWorld in New York…. Oh wait, that wasn’t a dream!

Speculation on our forums about an official Halo movie. Is one coming? When will it be released? We don’t know when it’s coming but one is coming. Mac Gamer’s Ledge had this to say:

Work is ongoing for a new Halo trailer which will highlight more of the game’s extraordinary attention to detail than was shown in the Macworld trailer. There is no planned release date but it will definitely be widely announced once it is available.

The Marathon’s Story page had this to say:

Matt Soell (Bungie Software) points out that the Halo demonstration at Macworld was not a movie but a self running demo. A Halo movie will appear later though.

Speculation on our forums about Halo’s three alien races. Is there really three? Are the humans included? Well Peter Cohen (MacCentral) had this to say:

In Halo, you assume the role of an armored cyborg scouring the surface of a gigantic alien artifact- a habitable ring in space 10,000 miles in diameter. The artifact contains alien weaponry and technology that you can use to help save the human race from extinction at the hands of the Covenant, an intermingling of three different alien species bent on preventing mankind’s conquest of space.

And from Micheal Mullen (Gamespot) has this to say:

The basic premise of Halo centers around two races: a group of humans and an alien race known as the Covenant – both races have crash-landed on a large ring floating around a large gaseous planet. The races are distinctly different from each other and have separate designers making sure they look nothing like one another. The large, ominous aliens move with smooth, fluid movements and use energy weapons like blasters to take down their human opponents. Humans wear military combat suits and use melee and propelled weapons.

Also, the ring encircling the planet was constructed by a third and as yet unseen alien race, but Bungie wouldn’t comment on whether we’d be able to see or fight against that race when the game is complete.

Still confused? Well join our forum discussion on the subject.
