I do that in most games. (Even with the sniper. :wink: )

I'm really looking forward to some of the new weapons and vehicles. I hope they add something REALLY cool that they don't tell us about until we buy it. I also hope their are a fair number of easter eggs, and skulls.

They announced that at present there are easter eggs present in the multiplayer, as well as a new vehicle.

Let me clarify Ghosts of Onyx things and relate them to Halo 3. I would know, I read it 5 times and I got it on Christmas.

SPOILER WARNING!!
************************

Kurt, a "missing" Spartan-II, is training hundreds of good, 12 year-old, disposable Spartan-III's for suicide but vital missions on the planet Onyx. One mission was blowing the **** out of a covenant reactor planet that was on the edge of the rapidly contracting UNSC space. Another was blowing up a ship-building station. In both, all of the Spartan-III's died, but in the second one (beta company) the Spartan-II's Tom and Lucy survived. Lucy, having seeing all but one of her Spartan-III's vaporized by a critical plasma reactor (with a silver lining of blowing up 7 cruisers and a Covenant battalion in mid-orbit), became psychologically damaged and could never make a sound other than a suppressed, gurgling sound for the rest of here life. Tom was fine. Then, at the training of Gamma company, there are 3 remaining (or present at the time) teams of about 6 people each, Team Gladius, Team Saber, and Team *iforget*. Weird things have been happening. Team Katana, a few weeks back, mysteriously vanished in "Zone 67" (an off limits area on Onyx where we learn there are Forerunner cities and actually upgraded sentinels. If you ever play Halo, even on legendary, with a sentinel, it takes him about 5 seconds to completely drains your shields, and there is no charge time. There is no central sphere, and they make noise when they move. They also do not move very fast. Only a few of them have energy shields, and you can break them pretty easily. The Onyx sentinels have really tough shields, can combine, go up to speeds of 200 km per hour, have energy weapon that blasts and vaporizes people in an instant. And, they are totally silent.) and were never heard from again. Anyway, while the three teams are competing for top honors, they encounter the sentinels.
Team Gladius is dead, but team Saber and *iforget* destroy one or two the sentinels with slower moving projectiles, which do not activate their delayed shields. One is hit in the eye with a rock, and the other, I think is punched in the "eye" (the visual and weapon part of the sentinel). They get back to base and rendevous with Kurt (now a lieutenant commander) and Chief Petty Officer Fraklin Mendez (under Kurt Ambrose's command. Ambrose was a made up name because Kurt forgot his original family name.). Then, Kelly and Dr. Halsey come (:O).
Dr. Halsey and Kelly, at the time, were in a chiroptera class vessel on a super secret mission. Kelly was drugged so Dr. Halsey could bring her along without resistance. Dr. Halsey, after reading Colenel Ackerson's secret files, hypothesized that he (the bastard) would create his own, weaker Spartans. "She shuddered at what shortcuts he (Colenel Ackerson) would do with his own private army of spartans [use them as disposable heroes], and what shortcuts he might be taking." She wanted to go to these Spartan-III's and convince them to hunker down in the Forerunner "shield world" (I'll get more into that later, Onyx), so that they could hide from the Halos, the covenant, and wait until the war was over. Dr. Halsy thought that the Covenant-Human war could never be won by humans, only survived.
When she arrived at Onyx, Dr. Halsey encountered 312 (exactly) sentinels surrounding the planet. They opened fire. Kelly had just waken up. When the Chiroptera class vessel accelerated to high velolcity, Dr. Halsey fell unconscious, so Kelly had to guide it through the Sentinel defense fleet and landed. She first through the Spartan-III's were covenant and started to fight, but Kurt told her to stop being an ass and stop shooting, so she's like "Kurt!" does the Spartan smile/greeting, but then they start running from sentinels and they're like "BANG BANG" and the sentinels are like "BANG BANG" and then Rammstein's like "FEURER FREI!" (sorry, had to do it). Then they make a plan that works, to blow the s*** out of the sentinels, which works, then Dr. Halsye wakes up, makes all these theories that are entirely correct, and gets help from the Onyx AI who fires a super duper version of the Man Cannon: The slipspace message cannon! Anyway, he shoots it, and a message from Cortana on Delta Halo with an attached message "SEND SPARTANS."
Then it goes to Earth where Blue team (now Fred, Linda, and Will) are kicking the s*** out of some covenant bastards trying to steal stuffz from Earth. Then Blue team gets nukes Brutes are taking, arms them, blows up a covenant destroyer, then Lord is like "GO TO ONYX." Blue team goes into the second destroyer, kills everything on it, then takes it to onyx. It get's shot and it's teh burn and it crashes on Onyx and Blue team is like "LOL DROPSHIP" and flies away. Then, they meet up with the other Spartans and are like "OMG KURT." They fight sentinels, fly a dropship, then go into a Forerunner city.
Meanwhile, this elite is like "OMG FORERUNNER CITY" and then goes and greets sentinels. Then the sentinels blow up some of his ships, and he blows up sentinels. Then he goes to Onyx where the humans have discovered that Onyx has a teleportation net (which is active sliptream transferrencencencencence). In the Forerunner's plan, they were supposed to go hide in Onyx, the "Shield world," where they would hide in another system within a slipspace field which is a few feet in diameter, and is 4-D where the inside is a Dyson sphere. Then they transport to the core and are like "OMG TO THE CENTER" and Kurt is like "OMG COVENANTS ARE COMING WE MUST STOP THEM FROM GOING THROIUGH TEH TELEPORTATION PORTAL" and they fight a big battle. Will dies (NOEZ!!) and so does another guy and girl Spartan-III. Then all of them go through the teleporter except Kurt, who is going to make sure it closes. Did I mention the humans have nukes?
Then the Elite is like "U FAIL" and Kurt is hallucinating, seeing all the dead Spartans around him, giving him the thumbs up "Can do" Spartan signal. He says, "U R DUMB. I NEVER DIE." *nuclear explosion*
Summing it up, all the Spartans (except MC and Gray team who has been missing for over a year, probably dead), Dr. Halsey, and Chief Mendez are stuck in the Dyson sphere. Voro (elite dude) and his battalion is dead. So, unless Gray team comes back or the people get out of the Dyson sphere, There aren't going to be many other Spartans in Halo 3.
UNLESS THE MC IS SO SMART HE CLONES HIMSELF. Which would be called Cooperative.

To all the people who didn't want a spoiler and to make my post on topic, "unless the trapped and missing Spartans come back, There aren't going to be many other Spartans in Halo 3.
UNLESS THE MC IS SO SMART HE CLONES HIMSELF, which would be called Cooperative."
