Will Halo 4 use the Reach engine though, or have 343 Industries been using all the time since they were formed to build a new one? We'll have to wait and see on that one.

They've only used Reach's engine for the one game (well 2 with that Halo remake). It would seem a waste to not use it again after so much development time.

Trailer for Halo 4:

I'm curious to see where they go with the storyline for this new trilogy. Plus a remake of the first Halo? That has me psyched.

I though the Halo story ended with Reach.

Reach was a prequel.

Hmm, what did that trailer tell us: that the first level might possibly involve escaping a spaceship that's being blown up by aliens.

So nothing then.
Tic Tac, sir?

It shows that Master Cheif survived. If I remember correctly, at the end of Halo 3 they kind of implied he was dead. Plus it makes you wonder, so you want to get the game to find out what happens.

What happened is Big Chief showed up before Master Chief died and stopped him from dieing. Then he explained all the Halos were all rogue AIs by an old man in a coma.

What I'm saying is MS made 343 backpedal because they were too pussy to have their crappy main character die.

The new Trilogy will be interesting, with a Covenant peace treaty (sort of) and the destruction of the Halo control centre, they'll have to create something new. Maybe they'll encounter the Forerunners :O that'd be really rather cool! Awoken from a Cryo-Sleep by the destruction of the Halo Rings...
