Talk:Halo 3

The following ARE NOT IN Halo 3!

 * NOTE:I don't fix them myself, because they may be right.ONLY if you find proof, fix them.--Spartan-007 10:25, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Is that all the equipment? - anonymous

Spartan Laser WARTHOG?
(corrected)

When was the "Spartan Laser Warthog" added in the vehicles list? It would be nice to have such a vehicle, but there is no proof!

There's definetly a spartan laser but that vehicle seems unrealistic. It would be an advanced version of the Gauss Warthog, which would be pointless because the Gauss Warthog is already good enough. MaulYoda

a spartan laser warthog... how dillusional - яÏΜFÏяΣ  the rebelious anarchist Terminus  21:03, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Allied Elites
Okay, so it's finally been confirmed that the Elites are working with the humans, but now they're saying that they might be called Separatists. What if they didn't know about the alliance!?!?!? In Ghost of Onyx they still didn't know that the Arbiter was still alive, so that meant that they didn't know about the alliance!!!

Sentinel Beam
(corrected again)


 * Where is it announced there will be a Sentinel Beam? --Spartan-007 15:25, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Somebody has added the Sentinel Beam back, when there is no evidence to support this. i'm removing it until there is official confirmation. --SpecOps306

You removed it, but someone added it again GOSH DARN IT!!!.-Spartan-007

Flamethrower(again)
(ok, corrected)

Which Weekly update confirmed the flamethrower? - User:Dockman


 * None till this point.--Radzon 02:44, 14 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Then why is it included in the main page?User:Dockman


 * Yeah I've read all the updates I think & I never heard anything about a flamethrower. Alex 06:32, 21 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Maybe a jurk anti-HALO fan wanted to tease us. What a *F....r* he must be!--Spartan-007 15:25, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Maybe there is some sort of vandal out there, who wants to piss us off!!!--Spartan-007 22:08, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Someone has added the Flamethrower in the weapons' list, again...

I found that user who vandalized the MA5K page his name is Random Noobie it took me around 20 mins sorting thru the history so ban this jerk vandal will ya.

Well, Bungie didn't release the flamethrower in xBox due to the time estimination. But in Halo PC, it is a playable weapon. I didn't found it very interesting, and prefer the shotgun then the flamethrower. I don't think it would appear in Halo 3--Master Chief Petty Officer 14:04, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

I actually saw a screen shot picture with master cheif's hand holding a flame thrower. Im sure it was edited. I saw it on google.com    images--Spartan 1 1 7 22:53, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Its halo 1 pre-release images.-Spartan-007

MA5K Assault Rifle
(corrected)
 * it says that it was announced in the Halo3 Vidoc)???????????
 * It apparantly is mentioned in GoO but I don't see mention of it in the Halo 3 ViDoc: Et Tu, Brute? -- Esemono 03:08, 29 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Where does it say in the Halo 3

He(=see vandal name below) has also written in the weapon's page (MA5K Assault Rifle) that it will exist in halo3 and was announced in the Brute Vidoc.He want to confuse us, but I'm tracking his edits.

The assault rifle will be making an appearence, that was confirmed, but it will be altered. MaulYoda

Oh wait, this is a different assault rifle. Hopefully it will have a scope. MaulYoda

an assault rifle with a scope??? hell yeah!!!!! that would be awsome i hope there is one - Relentless Persecution (talk) | |undefined | undefined(contribs) 21:01, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Why would the MA5K be in halo 3 when the MA5C is already in it? The MA5K (meentioned in Ghosts of Onyx) is just a stripped down version of the MA5B(from Halo Combat Evolved). --  O_M_R_I_F_E_R_E  TundefinedC 01:11, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Who said it was in Halo3? -Corporal Jones

Allied Elites
Okay, so it's finally been confirmed that the Elites are working with the humans, but now they're saying that they might be called Separatists. What if they didn't know about the alliance!?!?!? In Ghost of Onyx they still didn't know that the Arbiter was still alive, so that meant that they didn't know about the alliance!!!

Plasma Cannon?
Why is the weapon seen carried by the brute listed as a Plasma Cannon? There has been no official statement declaring that it is indeed a plasma cannon, and it doesn't really look that much alike to the ones in H2


 * I actually think it looks exactly like one. It also fired pretty rapidly, if i remember right. Ryanman
 * The brutes are so strong, that they can wield it like a normal weapon.--Spartan-007
 * That's just pure speculation --Dockman 03:42, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * It might be, after all, Brutes don't really wield such a thing, I had been thinking of it recently --Master Chief Petty Officer 13:53, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I was actually about to ask if it was a Plasma Cannon myself. I took a look at a screenshot of the brute with this weapon, and it is not fixed to the ground like the Plasma Cannon in Halo 2.  I also agree that it doesn't look like the ones in Halo2.

The Brutes are strong enough to carry it like a normal weapon thats why they didnt mount it on the ground.

I'm strong, why can't I just rip it out of the ground and carry it like a normal weapon? I don't think it is a plasma cannon. Sergeant Johnson also can pick up large machine-gun-type-turrets, but still shoots them while they are on the ground. Same with elites.

How do you know there will even be a Halo 3? Every thing is relevant and nothing can prove another, so there is no proof of any thing. In all reality evrything is nothing yet something at the same time, so if evrything is nothing you cant prove nothing because it is all the same. I think. sogy

Carrying that plasma gun will just be like carrying the warthog chaingun seen in the h3 multiplayer vidoc

couldn't be the needle rifle = brutes wouldn't carry that, wouldn't be a new rifle = they have plenty of automatics... it must be just a feature of either mounting a turret for your teammates or holding it for yourself...  ???

There are screenshots of a Spartan wielding a chain gun, maybe thats a new feature, there are guns on the bases but you can like hold the x button or something and then use the weapon switch button and pick it up. Anyone think that's likely?--Captain Jacob Rathens 20:57, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

It was comfirmed in a video of halo 3 beta I watched that if you press X by a turret you pick it up and use it as anyother weapon, so it likly that the AIs can use this move to in the Campaign Mode and the Brute is useing a Plasma turret -- MCDBBlits 07:17, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

RING SHEILD
I saw this ring sheild in a Halo 3 Beta video- its like a giant ring in a wide radius around the person/ team and its blue, it looks like a covenant design, and its not the buble sheild. To look at it: find a video on YouTube called: Halo 3 Sniper Montage (beta) at around 02:47, although I don't know if its real name is Ring Sheild--Uneven elephant 02:02, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Crater Size
Assault carriers are not 3 miles long.The crater is three miles long as confirmed by bungie.How many times must I mention it.Stephen Logas is predicting and guessing.I'm not trying to mean offense but the point is that the assault carrier is'nt all that big.Sure Stephen Logas used models and such to measure covenant ship sizes but it is still prediction.The only way to actually confirm this is to either ask Bungie themselves or rent a copy,(If Possible which is highly unlikely) of there Halo bible...I'm sorryHalo3 20:41, 25 January 2007 (UTC)--Halo3


 * I think you meant stephen loftus. but i'm sure i heard or read somewhere that the Carrier WAS three miles long, and that the crater was FOURTEEN miles wide. user:specops306
 * No the crater is 3 miles and I'm sure of it.I,like most, am a member of Bungie .net.Keep in touch with every article and most articles say that the crater is 3 miles long.Stephen Logas is simply theorizing.Like I said the only way to be sure is to ask Bungie.Even I'm not aloud to communicate directly by e-mail.If the assault carrier was three miles long we would of known long ago.Three miles may sound small but for a crater that would be on a record of one of the biggest craters around.Assault carriers are NOT three miles long.I'm sorry but I never did trust H.B.O and the fan fiction.Stephen Logas has done a great job but I'm not going to totally rely on hs work.He is theorizing.I't is the Halo story line that I will trust along with solid evidence from Bungie.Halo3 04:09, 28 January 2007 (UTC)--Halo3

I'm a meber of Bungie.net too. and I have kept up with articles. could someone PLEASE confirm which size it is? because i dont want to argue with somebody, regardless of who's right. and you keep saying Logas. sorry, but you do. user:specops306

Oh no I'm not trying to argue.Sorry about the "Logas"habit.Bad habit indeedHalo3 03:25, 29 January 2007 (UTC)--Halo3.

That's okay. and i wasnt argueing either - just trying to stop myself before i did. -- SpecOps306 00:54, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Lets stop and use logic here. Now I realize that I may be mistaken, if I am please forgive me. Anyway, in the halo 3 announcement trailer you see ruins of what appears to be New Mombasa, also, I find it difficult to believe the carriers are any smaller than 3 miles, but once again, I might be mistaken. Also, if the carriers are less than 3 miles then they are at least 1 mile, and it seems from the video that it would take at least   5-6 carriers to reach across the crater. anyway, I may be mistaken but it doesn't matter, hope your all cool with me putting in my opinion! ;P -- User:Omrifere 02:44, 7 February 2007

If i'm not mistaken I thought the Carrier blew the city up when it went into slipspace and the explsoin blew the crap out of the city (and took a few buildings with it) and the Ark (or whatever the thing in the trailer is) was revealed so I think the Crater was either made by the Scarabs blowing the ground up and then the Slipspace rupture or the Brutes have been doing some digging.

Keep in mind master chief along with alot of other marines have seen a massive amount of variety of covenant ships most likely including assault carriers.When master chief first saw ascendant justice he said it was the largest covenant ship he had ever seen signifying it larger than an assault carrier but thats if he's seen an assault carrier.But stil I also dought the assault carrier to be even as big as a mile.3 kilometers may not sound big but it sure is enough to be seen as a behemoth in the sky.If the assault carrier was a mile or 5 it would most likely cover all of the significally small new mobassa island which actually is small as it's an artificial island. To add on to that the assault carrier that was hovering above the masterchief in the E3 announcment trailer for Halo 3 was'nt all that big on close inspection.If it were 5 or even 3 miles long it would be way bigger. This goes for the assault carriers passing Cairo and the one hovering over regrets temple in a Halo 2 cutscene. Heck if the assault carrier was 3 miles or 5 miles long it poses a possiblity of being seen in space if viewed properly. As for the slipspace rupture it is possible that the exit was just simply a result of being released into the atmosphere whereas in space there are no interferences causing no reactive explosian.Halo3 04:51, 4 March 2007 (UTC)--Halo3

"Gravity Rifle"
Frankie said (in the most recent update) that a gravity rifle was used by a group of Jackals. This is either a typo to the beam rifle (since a "gravity rifle" ((pre-halo 2 beam rifle)) was going to be put into halo 1 on PC), a new UPGRADED beam rifle, or just a new name.


 * No. He did not say gravity rifle. He said exploding-gravity-sniper-platform (or something along the lines of that).  Kind of like the floating sniper platforms in Halo 2 (You know, the ones with the gravity lifts, like in the level; Relic), except explodable.


 * Wait for future updates, we'll know then. -ED 21:58, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Actually he did say that the gravity platforms were going to be explodable, i remember reading it in an update. Capt Bartlett 22:11, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

M6D?
Can someone get a link to the weekly update for the M6D sidearm confirmation? I just want to read it--The Chazz 22:20, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
 * M6D Won't be coming back, just another variant of the Magnum. -ED 21:23, 19 March 2007 (UTC)


 * I found it for myself, just go watch all the leaked videos it is there, Peace.--The Chazz025 and Clan 14:28, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Wait a minute, somebody added M6D to the weapons, is it true... I can't get on the official Halo 3 website right now but I'll check later. They also added Flood to the characters with no references, where is the confirmation? Capt Bartlett 15:56, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

The Flood I added, and it's based on the bio page on halo3.com, if you want me to reference it I can. --SpartansOnFire 06:26, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

The right story?
A long time ago even before the Halo 3 announcement trailer there was a plot line on the web. Some of you may have heard it before most of you might not have. But it said it was written by a bungie guy. I can't right the entire story for its LONG. But it did mention things like "the humans and covenant will unite to stop the now unholy FORERUNNER'S"- prophet of mercy. And like Truth gets chopped by a forerunner, A new major brute captain that is as big as a hunter, the new sentinel SPIDER thats on land, etc... it did mention a possible X button function. In a bungie update it said the X button is a cross between a kneel down and the" Fontana's on speed dial". This reassembles what it said in the story. It said "now with one button you can be HIGH COM or Cortana and strategically drop reinforcements via three the map. Such as scorps, hogs, marines, and amo. But it will rely on power plants and if that fails other buildings" it also works when your Arbiter. Well thats all. Sorry for the double post *chuckles nervously*


 * that is flat out NOT HAPPENING. If that happens, it changes Halo from a wicked-awesome FPS to some weird messed up strat-game.  The bungie guys would get lynched if they did that. Courier, Central Post Office 17:40, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

It would be awesome, though.

"You suddenly realize that 1 Brute Chieftain with an energy sword,10 hunters, and 1000 elites are chasing you....and you are on foot, with an empty pistol, no grenades, and so damn tired that you can't even mellee.You call a peli to drop you a scorpion and it lands on the chieftain and the 10 hunters.You get in and massacre all        the elites, which run away like grunts.Then you HUM# EM' ALL." LOL

I wouldn't give a damn to this piece of crap!Master Chief Petty Officer 13:14, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

(possible X button function. In a bungie update it said the X button is a cross between a kneel down and the" Fontana's on speed dial".) i've heard that it was deploy... like trip mines, jump pad and bubble shield... i saw it somewhere...

Scorpion Tank
If you look under Zoe Brawley you can see she made art using in game footage. In one of her pictures there are three scoprion tanks. Can't this mean this is confirmed or at least very likely?


 * Well, I think the Scorpion Tank is a major UNSC vehicle, which I am hoping they would add it to Halo 3Master Chief Petty Officer 12:31, 6 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Of course they will add it! how do you expect rooster teeth to make Shiela? user:the evil O,malley


 * Well, I am just saying though, you could have seen a fired shell of a Scopion tank at one of the Multiplayer pic in Halo 3Master Chief Petty Officer 05:22, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

That picture has been there since Halo 2 came out...So I doubt it "confirms" Scorpions will be in Halo 3 at this stage, although I think they will be in the final game.


 * Look, I think it might be because its the finale. It must returnMaster Chief Petty Officer 05:11, 12 March 2007 (UTC)


 * It is incredibly likely that they will keep scorpion tanks in the game, but I haven't seen any references to them specifically yet in Halo 3. -ED 21:20, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

They would summarize all the things in the first and second game, that makes a more dramatic ending and the player don't need to get so dispirit because not playing all the vehicles in the finaleMaster Chief Petty Officer 11:24, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

nah b, no more scorpion tanks- they ran out/I blew them all up. My bad

Flood in H3?
halo 3 flood on earth cJLTk5Aokl4 People say flood will be in H3 any proof? user:the evil O,malley

I think thats gonna happen. Prophet of Regret knows where Earth is, rightey? So i think he tell'd Gravemind the location of it, so flood can attack there. -Hras 'Kazumee

There must be. If the Covenant Loyalists are the only enemy you are facing it will be extremely dumMaster Chief Petty Officer 11:35, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Yeah and the Halo's were built for examining and destroying the flood and this is halo 3 kind of a give away plus what happend at the end of H2 User:Kami-Sama

If you want to see what might happen if the flood were on earth go to www.youtube.com and search for (halo 3 flood on earth) TRUST me User:0nyx Sp1k3r

Ok people thanks for info but my question is still unanswered IS THERE ANY PROOF??user:the evil O,malley

Firstly, the video is actually some scene from halo 2, it can't fool you guys, secondly, there are no proofs yet, although I quite agree with flood in Halo 3Master Chief Petty Officer 10:18, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm just saying this video could give you a feel for it if the flood were in H3 and got to earth,Im not trying to fool you i am just trying to help you imagine it. by 0nyx Sp1k3r
 * I imagine so. The Flood are so closely related to the Halo series, I doubt they would leave them out, if not just to sell more games. -- ED ( talk )(shockfront) 21:49, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

For the last time. IS THERE ANY PROOF!! PROOF PEOPLE! PROOF!!user:the evil O,malley

The halos were built to research the Flood, nothing else. The self-destructing thing is just a failsafe, if anything goes wrong. --DIGIPATD

Yes but the but one of the main goals is to find a way to destroy all the flood without activating the halos besides what would be the point of protecting the thing(human race) your going to sacrifice?--0nyx Sp1k3r 14:00, 6 May 2007 (UTC)BLARG!!!

Halo 3 leaked gameplay video
Has anyone seen the leaked gameplay video of halo 3? I have seen it in youtube.com and i posted it here for you. It seems like one of the beta players was taking a video with a cellular phone because the of quality of the video looks horrible. He seems to play in almost all the levels we have listed by now, Snowbound, Valhalla, etc. and also what seems to be a level inside a covenant ship that doesn't seem to be listed yet but whoever is playing uses both the Battle Rifle and the MA5C Assult Rifle, also the sniper and the shotgun and you can easily see the difference between that sniper in there and the one in Halo 2, the scope is different, also in one of the scenes one of the players is killed by what seems to be the spartan laser at the moment the player is using the magnum, and it seems pratically identical to the one in Halo 1 and in other scene the player is using the dual-spikers and they also use the mongoose. You can tell it is not the halo 2 because of the places, the mongoose, the details, the weapons, and the fact that in some scenes you can see the other player's weapons at their backs. Click on the link at the end to see it, i swear it is not a lie. Radzon 18:10, 24 March 2007 (UTC) leaked Footage khpChMUtLSc


 * It looks crazy and whoever filmed it looked like he was an idiot using a cell phone or a webcam. it doesn't matter though. looks like the real game but still, video quality was so bad it's almost impossible to reach a good conclusion. --Captain Jacob Rathens 22:55, 24 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Some things are clear enough to see the MA5C and the BR, and also remember that it is higly probable that they were not allowed to film the beta, so he might have done that secretly with the cellphone. Radzon 01:22, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
 * It seems a little suspicous that whenever they show a weapon shooting its into the sky so that we don't see any terrain. It's almost like bungie faked the leak and sent out the video to drum up more PR -- Esemono 07:41, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Maybe but you can see the M6D being used against someone else and the spartan laser in action and also the mongoose.--Radzon 17:42, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Here is one, it is unbelievable, SWEAR DOWN, its not completed tho, and yes it is halo 3. Watch this trailer called: "Quisnam Protero Damno" Heres the link: http://uk.media.xbox360.ign.com/media/734/734817/vids_1.html Have fun, Swear down, i was amazed at what i saw.

No indoor covenant map!!!!
There is no indoor covenant map that has been found or confirmed. The images and videos of a small purple area are part of snowbound, a sort of underground cavern that can be entered through those funky new player-only doors. I wont correct the page since someone might come up with proof of an existing map, if not, then could whoever put it in should delete it.

Who ever put this post above mine is right that was part of snowbound, Peace.--The Chazz025 and Clan 16:48, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

General Feelings for the game
It seems like a real good game but it looks hard. But, I like a challenge. Bunjie, Bring it.The Se7ens Haunt Me

Cause its a good game, what do you expect? But you are right, its a challenge,Master Chief Petty Officer 12:14, 30 March 2007 (UTC)


 * I got offerd to play the BETA. But, I turned it down. I said that I would rather play the game from start to finish.

The Se7ens Haunt Me

Bungie make Easy harder than Legendary and make Legendary like Devil May Cry 3 on Super Hard mode HA HA HA!!!
 * Yes, you make complete sense. -ED 01:36, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Come on, get use to it, you must learn how to play like Chief's getting on with the Covenant!Master Chief Petty Officer 04:02, 1 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Petty Officer, Im not complaining about it. Im actually applauding it. To me, I really don't like easy games. I much prefer a challenge. I beat halo 2 on legendary twice so I cant wait for H3 to see what bunjie has cooked up next.The Se7ens Haunt Me
 * I didn't say anything about complaintment, I beat Halo and Halo 2 on Legendary (once or twice) (the last time I played it was two months before I joined Halopedia), it seems easy, so I am hoping Bungie will increase it's difficulty ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 12:53, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

I agree easy games suck and Ed if youve played DMC3 you will know what im talking about hardest game ever they had to re-release it too making it easier im just kidding but i want a challenge yeah and battles from the update had 24 covies

Are Covenant still on Civil War
I am just thinking, did you (correct me if I am wrong) that a brute is actually standing near a pack of Grunts? Aren't they on the civil war?Master Chief Petty Officer 10:27, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

The ranks of the grunts are split (at least thats what I think they said in the brute vidoc). That means some will fight beside the brutes, and some will fight beside you (probably only as the arbiter) OAR LOCK 15:20, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Yes they are fighting just some are forced to fight for the Brutes if they were and those were fighting those Grunts would have had a big lesson in pwnage poor Grunts on Gravemind getting bombrushed off buildings and getting mauled by Chewbacca like-things (brutes)
 * As Cortana said in Halo 2, the Grunts never officially declared allegiance; they were too afraid to. They likely are forced to side with whoever was in charge of the area when the Civil War began. -- ED ( talk )(shockfront) 21:46, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

I think it's just an informal ViDoc, not the actual game. I'm pretty sure you won't be fighting alongside with Brutes. However, I think that there ARE Brute "rebels".

Well, if you are putting the ViDoc title to history, 'Et tu, Brute' is actually a quote from a drama which is translated roughly to 'You too, Brutus?' I am thinking if the brutes too, have rebeled against the Prophets!Master Chief Petty Officer 06:56, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

I think Bungie made that title cause' that is where the actual word "Brute" comes from, so yea I'm thinkin the title's non-canon. Capt Bartlett 03:04, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Do any of you guys think that the some of the Brutes, and I am saying Some of them, has or have rebel against the Covenant, because of discovering the turth of Halo?ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 12:27, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Julius Caesar gets killed by Marcus(?) Brutus (and friends), a friend of Caesar's. Caesar is suprised that Brutus is involved (he is supposed to be a noble, respectable person), and is all like "Et tu Brute?"(which is Latin for "y tú Brutus?", or "even you Brutus?").

AH! Shakespeare!

Also Plutarch. He wrote "Et tu Brute?" first. In Latin.

Ah! Latin!

Allied Elites

Okay, so it's finally been confirmed that the Elites are working with the humans, but now they're saying that they might be called Separatists. What if they didn't know about the alliance!?!?!? In Ghost of Onyx they still didn't know that the Arbiter was still alive, so that meant that they didn't know about the alliance!!!

Ah, good to know, but it wouldn't be a great advantage to the human, would it?ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 12:11, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Master Chief dies in Halo 3?
If you look in the song list on the back of Halo 2 Vol. 2 soundtrack under "Epilogue" you will notice that the music extends beyond the end of Halo 2. In the Announcement trailer of Halo 3, Master Cheif is somewhere very close to New Mombasa, and one of the songs is titled "Road to Voi", which is also close to Mombasa. Another song in the soundtrack under Finale is titled "Thermopylae Soon" and Thermopylae is a place in Greek history where there was a battle and all 300 Spartans of mythology were killed. Seeing as Master Chief is a Spartan, he will likely die. This of course is pure speculation and I would not like to upset anyone and I personally would not like to see the Chief die. Capt Bartlett 22:33, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Very good very intresting i would say my thoughts but think i'll just wait until it comes out again good theroy User:Kami-Sama

Maybe, because their is a song named Leonidas, and he died in the battle with the Persians in the history, maybe he represents the MCMaster Chief Petty Officer 09:33, 4 April 2007 (UTC)


 * yea, i saw that too but i didn't consider him as being the Master Cheif, rather a very important military commander Capt Bartlett 14:08, 4 April 2007 (UTC)


 * But see here, you remember that All Spartans are wiped out, so maybe not only the MC will die in the battle, but conclusions are never sad endingsMaster Chief Petty Officer 06:16, 5 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Well also think about it, after halo 1 the MC almost ran out of his power supply. Well he hasn't been to a allied station in just about that time again, and there wont be time at the begining of the game. This fits with the 300 topic because they fought a enourmous ammount of persian then many started to die because of exaustion and dehydration. (this isnt from the movie so dont say that isnt how it went.) it is from the actual history


 * That's a very good point, I didn't know that. Maybe you're right. Capt Bartlett 02:19, 10 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Ya know. Halo is gonna activate the end will come im makin a bet with my bud. user:the evil O,malley


 * The thing about halo getting activated. I dont believe it will happen. The Arc is destroyed and the MC will prob have to sacrafice himself to stop it. Or cortana one of the 2. Think though they say this is the final instalment, but they cant just stop and end the story it will have to linger on. There is not a story out there that just abruply stops. if it does activate sum1 will survive or they dont work. If not and MC does die. Chances are you will finally see his face at his funeral or when he sacrafices himself. Then there will be some twist like another childhood dream like in starry night. Then you find out there is another spartan or sumthing. Storys just dont stop like that.

Hey, (if he dies) about the funeral thing, I just honestly think that for one thing, if he dies in battle with the Covenant, there's no chance getting his body back, but if he sacrifices himself for saving humanity there may be a chance, but you remember CPO Mendez said to John, they commited the ashes of their fallen brothers into space, they may be a chance you would see his face. (Conclusion Theory)Even the MC died, he wouldn't be the only one who will be left to defend Earth, there are still more spartans, maybe they will meet up together in Halo 3, or some of the spartans may die for him. But I also think that we need to ask ourselves why will he die Master Chief Petty Officer 08:58, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

It would suck if he did die. But I sincerely doubt Bungie would go that far to torture us. Since there probably will be more Halo games, either there's another Spartan, or the Chief doesn't die.


 * Well bungie leaned toward that other spartan in the starry night Ad. That girl next to him is rumored to be one of his childhood friends that became a soartan from the books. I for got her name though, it started with a J

I played with MC for ten levels in Halo 1, fourteen levels in Halo 2; battling Covies and Flood zombies. This is my favorite playable character. Now I'm told that he dies. What a great game and story. :) --Blemo 04:42, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Well, like I said above, this is pure speculation from my perspective and would not like to see the Chief die either. Capt Bartlett 05:24, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

If the MC dies in the game, and there will be a replacement for his character, will you cheer up a bit?Master Chief Petty Officer 05:33, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

No. I think he will die in the very end along with all sentient life.user:the evil O,malley

I don't trust what Cortana said about the end of the world, I trust that the MC will prevent itMaster Chief Petty Officer 05:40, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

As for the comment on the other spartans, they still have to get out of that dyson sphere thing, and if they are stuck in there, earth is screwed.

Nah, they cant just go and kill off someone like Master Chief, im actually hoping in Halo 3 youll see a couple more Spartans, but they must all die, since if they dont die, then they may carry on for MC, and therefore, if they do die, Bungie have to let him live, anyways, if he were to die, id love to see him go down in a massive bang, maybe ou can see thousands of brutes charging down the battlefield, and then the camera moves up, ontop of a small hill youll see MC, with a few fellow Spartans,they all go out, and leave like 100 out of ten thousand brutes to carry on, who are later defeated at the city gates!!! Its only an idea. Anyways, anotha way he can die is to challenge/duel a powerful elite, elite cheats and ten more join, he kills like nine, the otha one kills him.

Hopefully he wont die tho, end off story!

Similarities of the halo3 teaser with a scene in the movie "300".
{spoiler}

(The words in bold are the similarities)

In a scene in the movie "300" Leonidas who, like someone said in this talk page, represents Master Chief:

1.Covers himself with his shield from the magic bombs Persians throw him

2.Then sprints towards the Persians while magic bombs explode around him.

{spoiler end}

In a teaser trailer of Halo 3 the Master Chief:

1.Covers himself with his bubble shield from the mortar bombs Wraiths shoot him.

2.Then sprints towards the Wraiths while mortar bombs explode around him.

Maybe Bungie wants to show us that Master Chief represents Leonidas.

p.s the movie "300" rules

p.s 2 if you see the movie you will understand THE TRUE POWER OF THE SPARTANS

 * I saw the movie. It was F!%$*ING awesome. & yeah that makes sence BUT the trailer came first and then the movie. So how could bunjie have done that unless they had direct contact with the movie but I heared nothing of bunjie with the director of 300.<font color=Gray>The Se7ens  <font color=Gray>Haunt Me

Great Scott, I see it too, but see here, when they first announced Halo 3, 300 is not yet filmedMaster Chief Petty Officer 03:09, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Yea that kinda comes in conjunction with what i wrote right above... Capt Bartlett 03:52, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Well maybe Bungie had heard of the scene from a script or hell 300 copied them

Even though, Bungie may be refering to the history, maybe Master CHief does represent Leonidas!!Master Chief Petty Officer 06:14, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Bungie and the director may have made a secret agreement.Remember:Bungie never reveals important things about the story and is FULL of easter eggs.They want us to understand these things ourselves.It is the most enigmatic game company the world has ever known.-Spartan-G007 xfire nickname:Spartan-G007

Meh... kinda partial to the spike grenade myself, but still really wanna try EVERY new weapon. Capt Bartlett 02:22, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Hah, but I hope they could widen the range of firing!Master Chief Petty Officer 08:59, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

True, the blast did seem to be quite narrow. I hope that isn't the only medium range damage that grenade will produce, cause' you would have to be pretty lucky to hit somebody with it. Capt Bartlett 15:17, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

You're supposed to stick people with those grenades. Watch the new vidDoc in the Halo 3 beta date announcement. I wanna use those trip mines. Or the bubble shields. The X button mystery has probably been solved. They said trip mine and bubble shield and showed footage of them in gameplay. And Bungie has stated it's not a grenade. This'll be fun.

Your right, if you look at the grenades indicator just before he drops the trip mine, you will notice the symbol just below the grenades. Capt Bartlett 02:31, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

It'll be easier if I tell you what I don't want to use;the two pistols.7th Destiny

new video doc on bungi web site
Watch it User:kami-Sama

In the new ViDoc it shows someone using a trip-mine in multiplayer, I would add it to the list, but I'm not sure of the affiliation (probably UNSC, in my opinion). Should I add it as unknown affiliation? Also, in the bungie update it says the function of the X-button is revealed, did anybody see this happening? Cheers, <font color="redrrdgfdtpifhghg658776543230997hygfdd654nbnb">OAR <font color="#QPWOEIRUTYAHSJDKFLLZMXNCBVGFTR">LOCK 19:47, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

It's UNSC. And we know the bubble shield and trip mine aren't considered grenades. X button right there. Gotta be. I'm pretty sure the mines are UNSC, the mine was gunmetal gray like everything else the UNSC uses

But if they're both on the X-button, how do you choose which one you're using? Cheers <font color="redrrdgfdtpifhghg658776543230997hygfdd654nbnb">OAR <font color="#QPWOEIRUTYAHSJDKFLLZMXNCBVGFTR">LOCK 21:54, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

well if you noticed in the video the frag grenade was selected and underneeth was the bubble shield or the trip mine so perhaps depending on what grenade you have selected determines wht the X-button dose. User:Kami-Sama

I noticed that, but another thing. In an earlier image it shows the players secondary weapon underneat the grenade, so maybe the trip mines or bubble shields take up the spot of your secondary weapon? <font color="redrrdgfdtpifhghg658776543230997hygfdd654nbnb">OAR <font color="#QPWOEIRUTYAHSJDKFLLZMXNCBVGFTR">LOCK 18:14, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Right, the people using the bubble sheild or the trip mine never have a secondary weapon, just a gun and trip mine/bubble sheild. Capt Bartlett 02:34, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Actual that's not true. If you look closely at 00:34/00:35 of the video you will see someone die and he will drop the bubble shield device, two SMGs, and a shotgun.

Yea i just noticed that, so maybe it is just something you have, in the latest weekly update, Bungie said they were "special" items that create variety, and there would be more. Capt Bartlett 04:01, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Found something
Well, you remembe reading GoO, the others are attempting to get off the Onyx to head back to Earth, do you think they will successfully penertrate the layers of Onyx in order to get back to Earth? the Spartans usually accomplishes every mission that are ordered to do so, so maybe there might be SII and IIIs featured in Halo 3!

Put it this way, time has past, and I bet their is a period where the MC can rest and have a test on MJOLNIR Mark VII, or some minor edits to the Mark VI, and the during the period, The active spartans may be returned to Earth with Mendez and HalseyMaster Chief Petty Officer 13:54, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

There will be no S-III in Halo 3 as it would ruin the point of the progam to make cheap, and expendable Spartans for suicide missions and ment to be permanently under the radar of the public eye by showing them to the world that mean that they would have to stand next to the S-II and not in there shadows(no suicide missions). And if there won't be other Spartans in the game as it would make players feel like they had to act like them(Spartans), ruining the fun that is Halo.-- MCDBBlits 13:39, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Combat Knife
What I'd like to see happen which probably will not is the idea of a combat knife fred uses. I am a knife/sword/melee fanatic so it would be awesome to slit someones throat open or stab a brute in teh heart. You could even do some hedge-trimming with the interactive grass and stuff. Fork 15:10, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

I like your idea because i would love to see a combat knife in halo. Hopefully if they put it in halo 3 you'll be able to throw it. It could be like the equivalent to the brute hammer and the covenant energy sword. -- 75.74.233.232 15:12, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

there is alredy abunch of melee wepons in halo, i don't think that adding a new one is a good idea sogy
 * Yeah I doubt we'll see it. The knife would have a very short melee range and i imagine that any "throat slitting" action would be prohibitively hard to create. -- ED ( talk )(shockfront) 21:40, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

They are not very effective against the Covenant, because most of the Covenant have their personal shields, and even you are using it on a Brute, you'd probably be riped apart before you can stuck a knife at him. It would be the worst melee weapon ever used in the Halo. Master Chief Petty Officer 07:03, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Right, but rmember Bungie's update with the ViDoc? That footage was all during the Alpha-stage of development. So the odds are the bubble sheild already changed shape, and in the last weekly update Frankie said the bubble sheild "won't roll", so it will probably look something like it did in Starry Night.

Few more things...
In the newst Vidoc, besides the chaingun, I found a few more things...

1. around 5:18 you can see the beamrifle in gameplay, it looks purple/pink and a little smaller.

2.In the hud screens: grenade,weapon,special devises are at the top left. The shield bars on the top middle! and Map/detector is where it always is, and ammo on the top right.

3. In the section where they show the trip mine in action, just before he lays it, there is a two second scene where you see what the driver see's. But, I saw the little "V" reticle, but no warthog! does that mean that its now first person? or is it changable?

Well, thats it I guess... I'll look again sometime... out--NOTreal 15:37, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

I can't find the beam rifle, where exactly on the screen is it? Capt Bartlett 18:17, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Oh, sorry its at: 5:18, guy on the left, he fills up a 4th of the screen.--NOTreal1 00:01, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Here's some more!

4. also at 5:18, if you look at the top left of the screen, you see a blue spartan jumping from some sort of wreckage (spelling<)in mid air, the wreckage looks partly like the auto turrets, maby some can be destroyed.

5. ragdoll physics look like they improved alot! in the begining and at the "shoot guy out of midair with a sniper" part. and if you look carfully, you can see after someone dies, thier weapons and grenades roll and bounce reilistically.

6. Last but not least, it seams heavy and mediem weapons (Assault rifle, battle rifle, rocket launcher etc..) are carried on your back. Small and duel wield weapons (Plasma pistol, needler, spiker, SMG etc...)are carried on the right thigh. if you have a flag, any weapon will probably be put on the back too. Oh, and about the auto turrets... some look like they are placed strategicaly in places (even where your supposed to go) so that it will be more than you just fighting the other players... so ya, you probably could destroy them.--NOTreal1 00:17, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Why does the frag granade not bounce? (In this vidoc) Also, why, on the Halo 3 website, does it say "needlers do not go though shields, and they explode when they get close" (or something like that)

I would like to see the night vision come back in H3. I think to only reason why it was taken out was that it was not needed in H2. You barley even need a flashlight in H2, everything was well lit and the textures were clearer. But personally, I don't think it will be brought back. sogy 12:22, 23 April 2007 CE

It will be back it was confirmed in the leaked footage (watch it at 1up.com) DizRupT

OMG again!
Just out today!, a new beta pre alpha build footage was shown! ( is at 1up!) it shows a map similar to the remake of zanzibar article, I didn't see the name anyware, but i saw redone multiplayer menus! (with semi-moving backgrounds) the map itself was a cross between: a five times larger indoor part of zanzibar, a more gray collosis, Ivory tower styleish buildings, and a Halo 1 PC or xbox map i cant put my finger on... anyway, it looks realy interesting! some key things were: a giant barel generator (simaller to zanzibar) and it appears to be a VERY large map, (containment size). It had a funny whistle song to it, and the dude just romed around in the place until he reached a bubble shield that looks like the bubble shield on a four or three leg stand. he then droped it by what looks like the computer from zanzibar, and just pushed it around until they got attacked by blue team. (it ends with the dude reloading behind a box) so anyway go check it out! oh, and some things were blanked out like map name etc... and it might be an instilation simaler to zanzibar only bigger. over--NOTreal 23:07, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

I only saw the part footage. I got there like two minutes after it came... thnx thow--NOTreal1 14:13, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Heres more:

1. We saw the entire map, it looks like zanz got a total and big makeover!

2. We got a glimpse at a few weapons... first the spiker, the sniper, shottie, spartan lazer, BR, and what looks to be an anti-power thing (it looked like a blue bubble shield and it was called the "power drainer" so it would like be placed in a spot and who ever went through its field got sucked of energy:shields, bubble shields, plasma weapon over heat etc.) and the spartan lazer i think either throws you realy far or evaporates you.

3. vehicles, i saw vehicles, I saw: wharthog, ghost, and two mongooses. the dude drove the hog a little in the water, with cool rooster tail effects, as well as a mongoose. wich he ran many people over in, it is handled like the hog too. some other dude got in the ghost, and the human vehicles are on low ramp/delivery things.--NOTreal1 14:35, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

The should. Maybe, I don't see why bunjie is going to drop a character. Yeah. Yet maybe not that often.--Spartan 1 1 7 20:00, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

I don't see why they wouldn't, after all if the artifact near New Mombasa in the trailer is an ancient Forerunner artifact, wouldn't it be logical that there are Sentinals guarding it. The Halos are to be activated should the Flood manage to escape right? Well what if they happen to invade that structure? I'm gonna put my bet on Sentinals being in there.

Cortana gone mad?
At the end of H2 why didn't Cortana blow up In Amber Clad after the MC left? She would have killed the Gravemine, destroied the covenant holey city, destroied Installation 05, killed thousands of flood and covenant, and herself along with all of the human intel she knew, is she not willing to make that sacrifice, or just stupid? sogy

One word, rampancy. Capt Bartlett 20:23, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

NO. Three words: GRAVEMIND NOT EVIL. He helped the Arbiter deactivate Delta Halo (Teleported him), saved Master Chief (MC can't swim with four tons of armor on his back), and saved the Arbiter (Falling for eternity is dangerous). Who said that Cortana was still able to access In Amber Clad's controls, anyway? Oh, and the Covenant holy city is "High Charity". --DIGIPATD
 * We don't know if Cortana plans to destroy High Charity or not, since no one knows what she is thinking. As for the Gravemind, it is an entity of the flood, created by the flood, and it seeks self-preservation and reproduction: aka consuming all life. I would say it is decidably evil. -- ED ( talk )(shockfront) 21:12, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

I think those questions Gravemind wanted to ask Cortana might have made her think more than she was designed to, that combined with the fact that the Halo data might have shortened her lifespan might have pushed her to her limit and enduced rampancy prematurely. What you think people? --Captain Jacob Rathens 23:11, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

I still vote rampancy, think about it. She may not have overloaded In Amber Clad's engines because she knew it was on High Charity and would not destroy Delta Halo and/or she has a GREATER PLAN to save humanity. Either that or she really does want Humanity destroyed by the Flood, who knows? Capt Bartlett 03:16, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Who saids Graveminds not evil, Gravemind just want to save himself from starving to death, and its just the fact that he sent the MC and the Arbiter as a reclaimer. I just think he's quite selfish, I have no idea what he has to use for Cortana!ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 13:11, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Evil is all a matter of your perspective. The way I look at it, reasons you may consider someone evil are: they try to damage, your beleifs, health, happyness, way of life, goals, or possesions. This damage of our lives will make us consider them evil. However, they may consider that you are evil, for something else you have done, and consider their attack on you a neccesary retribution. Therefore, in my opinion (Many people will not agree with my views), I don't know how accurate that is, buts its what I make of the situation. For what it is worth, <font color="redrrdgfdtpifhghg658776543230997hygfdd654nbnb">OAR <font color="#QPWOEIRUTYAHSJDKFLLZMXNCBVGFTR">LOCK 16:14, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
 * The humans see the covenant evil, because they challenge their lands, lives, and way of life.
 * The humans see the flood as evil, because they challenge their lands, beleifs, happyness, way of life, and possesions by attempting to steal it from them by possesing them.
 * The covenant see the humans evil, because they challenge their beleifs, and their happiness and goals (The Great Journey)
 * The covenant see the flood as evil, because they challenge, their lands, beleifs, happness and goals (The great Journey, and possesions by attempting to steal it from them by possesing them.
 * The Flood see the humans as evil because they challenge their possesion (literally), health, happiness (maybe), goals (gaining more knowledge through possesion) and their way of life.
 * The Flood see the Covenant as evil, because they challenge their possesions, health, happiness, goals, and their way of life

So everyone is evil, what's wrong with that? But any way I personally think that Cortana has gone rampant, and she seeks to destroy all of the human kind. -sogy 12:03, 25 April 2007 CE

Cortanas not evil, I say she's just witing for the right time or witing for a different solution. Plus by saying "Dont make a girl a promise... If you know you cant keep it." WAIT! WHAT! Actually know that I think of it maybe she has. "...If you know you cant keep it." Holy hell! Maybe by saying that shes going to ensure he can't follow through! *SHOCKED* My GOD! CORTANA NOOOOOO!!!!!--Spartan 1 1 7 22:06, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

I don't quite agree with Cortana being "Evil" or "Mad", her speech in the Announcment Trailer doesn't make her looks mad. The game will be pretty dull without her guiding you through the story, and I am pretty sure that without her help, the Master Chief wouldn't have been witnessing the opening of the ArkΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 13:54, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

EMP grenade?
A long time ago, months before the Halo 3 announcment, there was a rumer of a new grenade... the EMP grenade. It was stated forerunner in design, it was grey with blue lighting on it and slightly larger than a frag. Its perpose was not to kill your enemies, but post-pone/sabotage them, It was thrown like a regular o'll nade but, it emited a blue electric field witch would desable shields, plasma nades, and even vehicles around it until the effects wore off. This might be what the POWER DRAINER has become... but in the brute vidoc... we saw a HUD with FOUR grenade types! the last one on the right looking very simaler to the EMP nade... 5% percent chance its coming back but...Hmmm very odd...Out--NOTreal 22:49, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Its possible. It seems like a long shot, but possible. I think it would be difficult to program the effects in the game without severe glitching. Either way, if Bungie could pull it off, it would be an interesting concept. HALO 3 IS GONNA BE AWSOME WITH OR WITHOUT IT!!! --Captain Jacob Rathens 03:04, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Very slim chance but maybe they are Dr. Halsey's if they're not Cortana's. Capt Bartlett 15:59, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Look at the side of the eyes notice the numbers? it's a AI or Cortana

I didn't see any numbers at the side of the eye, it could be Cortana's, I had thought of it, but Cortana is more developed like a human than in Halo 1 and 2. It might be a new character, ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 12:24, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Rating Change
Ok before the a.v.c finds a way 2 ban me again, i just wanted 2 change one thing... The rating on Halo 3 because i hate when they do that... I have 2 reasons for this, 1.)Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2 were both rated "M", and 2.) as im sure all of you have seen the vidoc, there IS blood and im sure there will be just as much "You covie bastards" and "Damn it"'s from Seargant Johnson from halo 2... --Uncivil 02:30, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm agree. In Et Tu Btute and the other one there was blood, gore, ect possibly more than the first two. Also what's Halo without Johnson cussing out the covenant before I try to kill him. Plus with the US law stating the FPS start out at T and work up based on the content practically gives it an M rating.--[[Image:GRAW.png|25px]] MCPO Spartan  1138  02:39, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

I think it should be rated "RP" since the ESRB havn't confirmed it officially. You want this site to be accurate, you should stick with the facts until there is official confirmation. But we all know the outcome is that it will be an "M" game. Just saying...--SpartansOnFire 06:47, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

It must be M, nothing more!ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 11:56, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Its most likely going to be M. The other 2 were... and you can't realy go from M to T or it would change the game ALOT. If i'm not mistaken, its gorier and bloodier than ever! in all the vidocs and movies. when someone were shot or esploded blood splat all over the place (ground, walls, vehicles..)and if i see curectly, I saw limbs being blown off! (brute + shotgun = legs, arms, head off). So... i see no possibility its T so its M.--NOTreal 02:06, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Too many weapons
I think Halo 3 has too many weapons you know. Spartan lazer, trip mine, chaingun,missle pod too many The evil O,malley 20:08, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

I agree. it sounds like we'll be overwhelmed by the variety. though, admittedly, it will give us more options. Kora &#39;Morhekee 21:58, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Nah, not to many. In halo 1 and two ammo was plentiful. In halo 3 with these new weapons it will force everyone to adapt or die. Ammo will be hard to come by for any one specific weapon and we will have to switch much more often. Although most weapons are assault weapons so it will make little difference which ones we switch to. (all that is just my opinion anyway) --Captain Jacob Rathens 02:58, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Should the X-button funstion be in campaign? I can't see the tripmine deployed to kill yourself and a bunch of brutes...or using the jump pad to get to the top of the level...perhaps just multiplayer? --Kora &#39;Morhekee 03:46, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Te tripmine would be functional in campaign. Just drop it and get an ememy's attention and lure him on. It sounds wierd but just think about it and it'll make sense (I think) Anyway It could work

 * Too many weapons isn't a bad thing at all. Really, it increases the potential strategy of the game. As opposed to Halo 1, where you can basically play the whole game with a pistol and needler. -- ED ( talk )(shockfront) 17:04, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
