The Movie Is Back!!!
I Just Read An Article That Says That Steven Spielburg is Reserecting The Halo Movie. Here is a Quote From it: "The recent buzz around the film industry is that Steven Spielberg has picked up a screenplay by G.I Joe writer Stuart Beattie for a new attempt at a Halo movie. Spielberg is currently reported to be negotiating a budget for the project, with figures hovering at over $100 million. With one of the most respected men in sci-fi behind this fresh take on Halo, it seems likely that Master Chief will finally see the big screen.
While the script is based on Fall of Reach, a novel written by Eric Nyland, it is unsure whether the movie will coincide with the storyline of Bungie's final addition to the Halo franchise, Halo Reach." Dmanskater</sup>""11""</sup> (talk) 00:26, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

British Halo movie to be made
Wired just published an interview with the team from Operation Chastity who are going to make a Halo fan film. They're looking for funding but the art work and full sized Warthog look pretty impressive: http://www.wired.co.uk/news/archive/2009-08/13/halo-fan-seeks-%C2%A330,000-for-ultimate-fan-film.aspx http://www.wired.co.uk/photos/wired-things/2009-08/01/operation-chastity---the-halo-fan-film.aspx —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.254.147.52 (talk) 16:28, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
Halo Online?
There needs to be a mention about the cancled MMO on the "Canceled Games" section. Gamasutra has images of the project on their website. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.126.207.194 (talk) 19:34, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
What was so revolutionary?
Some mention should be made about what aspects of Halo's gameplay made it "reinvented a genre that didn't know it needed to be reinvented". Seriously, there's no mention of anything. As far as i can see, the only stuff fantastically different from previous FPS's are the grenades, shield, beat, assasinate from behind, and the only carry two weapons thing. Anything else?Drasern (talk) 08:22, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
- I think Halo: Combat Evolved was one of the first successful console first person shooters with online multiplayer support. As for the weapon restrictions, there have been first person shooters with similar weapon carrying restrictions at least as far back as the mid 90s. -- Gordon Ecker (talk) 08:27, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
The Cole Protocol
Why does the article for Halo: The Cole Protocol redirect here? I can't find any discussion in any of the archives about it. It debuted on the New York Times Bestseller List at No. 4 (if I remember correctly), so I think it's more than notable. And it's been out for months and months. What gives? 24.165.150.118 (talk) 12:45, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
- See this discussion. Long story short: There's currently not much to say other than the plot and that it's on best-seller lists. That's not much of an article, because articles should not be solely or mostly plot summary. We don't have that much verifiable, reliable information to add that. —TKD [talk][c] 13:22, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
Sales
There's no section on sales. There should be. 76.17.208.91 (talk) 00:37, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
- Halo_(series)#Reception_and_critical_response covers the info you're talking about. --Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 01:32, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
Spelling
Gods -> gods. The term "God" refers to monotheism, "gods" to polytheism. Please change it.
Halopedia
I know an encyclopedia which is much better to use than wikipedia, it's called Halopedia, and it contains much more information surrounding Halo. I recommend it.--78.144.92.211 (talk) 10:29, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
- Wikipedia does not only talk about Halo, which is why it is not that advanced in the Halo video game. Halopedia (www.halo.wikia.com) is focusing mainly on Halo the game, which is why "it contains much more information surrounding Halo."--Rollersox (talk) 16:37, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
No mention of cancelled Halo MMO
There is no mention of the cancelled untitled Halo MMO that was going to be developed by Ensemble studios. Someone should insert a paragraph about the MMO into the cancelled projects section. Search Halopedia for iformation on the cancelled game. --SCROTE (talk) 17:02, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

What is the meaning of halo? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.219.151.190 (talk) 16:01, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
