Discuss whatever you want about video games and gaming in general. Be nice though.. fanboys will get a swift kick in the nuts.

If anything Halo related is announced, I'd say it has a higher chance of being that Peter Jackson thing. If they're even still working on that.

I highly doubt there will be a Halo 4 announcement soon. Isn't that picture from Halo 2?

They used Halo 2 images for early Halo 3 box art.

It was in EGM in the rumors section a while ago.
I never said it was for sure, and I was contributing to the thread with discussion of what I had personally read.

That's not true. Even if you ignore the fact that "box art" is the wrong term, you're still not correct. Furthermore, who is "they"? Bungie never used Halo 2 art to represent Halo 3. They never showed anything relating to Halo 3 until the Announce Trailer, and from there on out they exclusively used renders from that scene until they revealed more. So no, nobody would have used Halo 2 images for Halo 3 box art, unless "they" refers to the types of idiots who make fake box art and post it online, in which case that doesn't have anything to do with what he said, really. Yes, that picture is from Halo 2. No, it was never used to represent Halo 3 in any official form.

Lemme rephrase what I said. "I remember seeing early H3 box art that used Halo 2 images usually at FYE and or other places to get games."

Last I read was the producing rights were sold to Fox, and they haven't done anything. I think. I may have misread it on Imdb.

Thay've been hiring staff recently. However it is unclear is they just are starting production (the need for the staff), or they just need more people around...

Nobody has suggested it's a reliable source, it's labelled as a rumour.

We'll only have confirmation during E3. Until then, we can guess or speculate whether or not anything Halo related will be announced.
