Talk:Halo universe

Creator of series?
"The concept for the Halo trilogy was thought up by Raymond Simmon (YO! THIS NEEDS A SOURCE), who sold his idea to Bungie."

As far as I can find through various searches and un-official sources, it is Joe Staten and Jason Jones who created the original idea and storyline for the Halo series.

No mention of this Raymond Simmon guy...

YO! FACT REVERSAL!
ok... i just was browsing... and well the fact the Prophets thought using Forrunner tech was "Heresy" is wrong.... the Sanghili(aka Elites) are the ones that thought this... while the Prophets thought that Forrunner tech should be used.... trust me, I just finished Halo: Contact Harvest... can't give you exact pages or anything... but thought I'd just let you all know... 24.31.247.108 00:52, 6 May 2008 (UTC)A Lone Deadly Wolf PS- sry for not loging in, forgot password and can't find out how to get a new one / find where i wrote it down... (if I did...)


 * Actually, that statement isn't wrong. The Prophets do regard tampering with Forerunner technology as heresy...unless it's them doing the tampering, in which case it's suddenly perfectly alright. --  Administrator  Specops306  -  Qur'a 'Morhek   Honour Light Your Way!  11:33, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

get some ideas fom ancient rome or greece
I was reading a artical in a scholastic magazine and I read about a war between spartas Spartan army that had powerful armor go against another empire but they ended with a truce to defeat a bigger enemy that were said to act like brutes. And in the end all the spartans were missing or dead. I just thought that war, names, and truce between the Spartans and other empire and then the treaty might have given ideas to Bungie.

Did bungie get ideas from stargate
A friend recently got me into Stargate and if you look at it just right you"ll see it kind of resembles halo --Bruce9 20:17, November 25, 2009 (UTC)
 * That would be where 343 Industry comes in; expanding the franchise and accidentally making the Halo Universe similar to Star Wars/Stargate.-  5 əb'7 aŋk (7alk ) 12:47, November 27, 2009 (UTC)

Update
This page should be updated with the information we received in Halo: Evolutions, as some of the stories take place post-halo 3 (great schism/great war).

One thing...
Bungi kept the halo series accurate, does that mean 343 industries will too?


 * Bungie didn't keep it "accurate", in the sense that there was a pre-planned set of ideas and events. But they did have a vision of what Halo should be, and they crafted one hell of a universe. Some of that vision is being continued by 343i - the story of the Forerunners, for example. 343i are also bringing their own ideas to the table, as they should. Are they as popular as Bungie's ideas? Will they turn out the same quality and awesomeness of the past? Recent material gives me hope. --  Specops306   Autocrat     Qur'a 'Morhek   15:26, 28 January 2011 (EST)

Lack of sources
How do you put that lack of sources sign on the front of the page? Because this thing is supposed to cover the whole of the Halo Universe, so four sources is crazy. Vegerot ( talk )  07:44, 12 May 2011 (EDT)!


 * Don't think this article needs citations since it is only a summary of the Halo universe. Best to keep it concise with links to respective articles.— subtank  09:19, 12 May 2011 (EDT)
