The Halo Arc

[Aquilonis]

Alright, I searched this out and found two threads on it- the more recent is closed, and the earlier one is considerably over two years old and too narrow for my topic. Thus, without further ado, I open this thread on the Halo story arc, including Halo 1, 2, and 3, as well as any books/side movies like Final Flight of the Osiris (not Halo, but you get it). Any discussion on Halo is encouraged.

I would like to start off by noting with great anticipation the release of Halo 3 at some point next year, which I cannot wait to play. I would also like to note that while checking out Wikipedia, I stumbled across an entire Halo history, so that was fun, I'll post the link if anyone is interested.

What do you all think about Halo? Discussion welcome, I'm leaving things vague on purpose to facilitate a broader, more flowing discussion.
