I was actually replying to Hothearts theory. I guess it's you who stuck mine in a spoiler thing? Ill add the title on top Also isn't Legends the anime? Surely it's not massively canon?

Yantelope Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 (edited) Halo Reveal hidden contents Yeah, it really seems like Bungie said "Humans are the forerunners that survived" and 343 said, "meh, we have a better idea" Edited January 6, 2011 by Yantelope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, only the games are truly canon. Even the books, some of which were written by Bungie employees, aren't truly canon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantelope Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 A movie seems to be too expensive to be non-canon. I would think it'd be a setup for future media. It reminds me a lot of The Animatrix. As a result I'm inclined to believe that 343 considers it canon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Basically I believe it's status is "canon except where it conflicts with the games." *Edit* - Halopedia seems to agree with me: http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Halopedia:Canon_Policy#Superior_Canon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Heart Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Halo Reveal hidden contents Dean has the right sort of idea. It's a common theme among sci-fi work. I think Halo Legends was deliberately playful with canon and that, apparently, the episode involving Cortana's account of Forerunners couldn't be trusted anyway because of 'AI Rampancy' (which is what Guilty Spark was under the influence of during the games). Halopedia has this. http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Librarian Which is based on terminals ingame. Also, read the very last point in Trivia here: http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Forerunner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Well fine then. Terminal thing convinces me, since it's even the same game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewblaha Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Legend of Legaia. Reveal hidden contents Cort is Noa's brother, and Noa is actually the baby princess who was rescued by the Soren. Destroying the Mist Generator by Conkram causes the city itself (which is a giant Seru) to close, in turn, killing Noa's parents. Cort doesn't die, but rather swallows your entire home village and creates a castle that is a living Seru. Cort throws a moon on you. You survive. Alan Wake Reveal hidden contents WTF?
