In Response To: Re: Mk V Cyborg? (Skeletor)

While most (including myself) would agree that this is a stretch, could Halo possibly be a prequel to the Marathon series? (I'm sure this has been mentioned before...) It would definitely be fantastically awesome to play through Halo and come accross the new species that they won't show anyone and have it be the Pfhor or some other race which we recognize. For this theory to work, of course, the player would have to be a Mark IV cyborg, which is probably the case anyway (This isn't the most CREDIBLE report on details such as that--they refferenced Bungie as 'Bungee'... a common error, but an odd one considering they reffered to our favorite company as Bungie earlier in the same article by the same person). Further support for this being the same Mark IV cyborg is that they make mention of the crew members being suprised by seing the cyborg and that he was the last of his kind. Its almost too tell-tale to me. And I realize the whole thing about it being a prequel to the Marathon series is probably just a pipe-dream, but I honestly doubt that its a Mark V cyborg, its more likely that the reporter just slipped.

later,
Mojo
