A UNSC battle group, consisting of the destroyer Heracles, under Captain Veredi, and the two frigates Arabia and Vostok, enters the Harvest system and discovers that everything on the planet has been completely incinerated and the surface melted down to glass.
Four other UNSC vessels, the corvette Coral Sea, the two frigates Redoubtable and Paris, and the prowler Dusk are both close enough to the Slipspace rift and have charged Slipspace capacitors, and attempt to follow the In Amber Clad into the eleven nondimensions of Slipspace.
As the Covenant close in on the humans within Onyx, Dr. Halsey persuades them all to enter the rift, to escape whatever galactic destruction the Forerunner intended with the Halos that she is convinced is inevitable.

The teaser on their three weeks of Halo 3 microsite mentions the "Halo/Marathon universe" but there's nary a mention of Marathon there, and as we all know, the two universes are separate anyway.
Halo 2 is a damn good game, to be sure, and there were a lot of things I liked about it, most of which I mentioned near the beginning of this letter.
Halo 2 already had the success of the first game and the huge hype surrounding its release behind it, and we all knew it was likely to be a huge seller as well, and it was.

 Halo 2   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Halo 2, like the original Halo, uses the in-game engine for all cinematics, and unlike many games, this engine is good enough that players won’t feel short-shrifted.
The first Halo was known as much for its ethereal music as it was for its loading screens (which are almost entirely gone in Halo 2), so Bungie’s move to include rock music in the soundtrack is somewhat of a surprise.
Halo 2 allows players to completely customize their characters and clan logo, which makes friendly fire a little easier to avoid in the midst of battle.

Until there were sufficient numbers of indigenous UNSC starship designs, vessels were loaned to them by the various powers, and fitted with IFF transponders that clearly identified the vessels, and it was these ships that dealt with the Second Solar War, serving with distinction.
As the UNSC was to be funded by the various power blocs, it was thought expedient to design their starships utilising components from these powers.

 UNSC Marines (Halo) - Action Figure Reviews - The Armchair Empire
While these three figures are all identified by different names – generic UNSC Marine, Sergeant Stacker, Sergeant Johnson – they’re so similar that I’m reviewing them together.
The only thing separating the figures is the head sculpts: Sergeant Johnson is chomping a cigar, Sergeant Stacker sports a goatee and a scar on his face, and the UNSC Marine features a doo-dad studded helmet.
Although the Marines aren’t as eye-catching as Master Chief thanks to a mainly average paint application and airbrushed sculpt, they still manage to be appealing on display, particularly in a group.

 SUBJECT TITLE: Theory: Delta Halo is a "Quick Jump" from Earth
This scenario could also prevent one malfunctioning Halo (the destruction of Installation 04) from completely undermining the Forerunner’s final act of stopping the Flood by leaving a section of the galaxy un-cleansed.
Two installations near Earth - which itself is far from the galactic center, GS343’s diagram of the 7 Halos, and the Halo 2 LE DVD mural show that there is no uniform and ‘ideal’ dispersion of the Halos to cover the expanse of the galaxy.
It would be one of the most confusing plot devices to the 95+ percentage of the population that only play the video games; not only that, even novel readers and theorists can’t agree as to what exactly it does, or how to easily explain it to someone else without practically writing a book.
