In Response To: Pondering the connections to Marathon in Halo (Harry)

If you still don't believe Halo will be related to Marathon, well...I don't know what to say.

: Ever since the Marathon logo was discovered in the Halo logo way way back
: people have been coming up with theories and speculations about the
: connection to Marathon in Halo. What I myself now think is that we won't
: see very direct connections to the Marathon universe as we know it.

: We have the Marathon logo, its meaning being described to "represent a
: world within a world... Marathon the spaceship being build inside a
: hollowed asteroid." (J. Reginald Dujour, taken from Marathon's
: Story). But in Halo the logo is taken away from the representation in a
: way, and made to be the logo of the human confederation (or the UESC).

: Then we have the AI, Cortana. Cortana is an essential part for the humans, as
: shown in the recent movies. If the Covenant acquire her, they will find
: out about all the human military tactics and Earth. So here the AI is not
: only a part of the ship, controlling doors or the flight path. We had AI's
: in Marathon and they all had duties in and around the Marathon.

: Lastly, I feel that somehow we won't see any Pfhor, or Jjaro (it would be
: cool if they built the Halo but oh well). We won't see anything relating
: to the S'pht or their 11 clans. All I think we'll see is how the humans
: are under the Marathon logo.

: Sorry for my incoherance. I'm off to wake up a little more.

: -Harry
