The Halo 2 cover art

Korra · April 02, 2015, 11:55:57 PM

Is now a in-universe photo taken by a photographer that was later used as propaganda.

I never liked that cover art. I always thought Master Chief's stance was weird.
He's on top of a building looking down?

I was always fond of this picture of Master Chief. Something very genuine about it.

"Hey, Chief, can you strike a pose?"
"Photograph me like your french girls"

The only way the archetypical Halo 2 pose works for me is if Chief was taking cover behind a low wall and peeking over it or something, which obviously he's not.

Hmmm, he's just landed a running jump perhaps?

Something like that is possible, I mean he was probably running from all the banshees that seem to be coming after him, and then had to stop since it's the edge of a skyscraper

It sure would have been great if Halo 2, 3 and Reach had invasions that look like that. I love that in Halo 2 and 3 Earth gets invaded and it's treated like it's not even a big deal. Oh the Flood which took over many worlds lands on Earth. Lets only have one level about it which doesn't even take it like a serious threat.

Didn't believe you until I checked the huntthetruth blog. 343: "Literally everything we can get our hands on needs to be established canon, even a game's cover art."

RomanGladiator · April 03, 2015, 11:16:40 AM

Halo follower already has an "analysis" of the picture up. lol

I don't get it... why's he looking away from and posing before the oncoming banshee rape train?

Because you have autism.

That's actually kinda neat.

They've captured Chief trying to get the Scarab Gun.
