Thanks man i appreciate it. Why hasn't Microsoft released Halo 2 on XBL? Haven't played that game in so long. And it's the reason why i never got into the story. Since i always played with people and we just skipped through everything. Since then i just skip the story because i missed all that.You're completely missing the entire storyline of the games then. The Halo story set by Bungie is incredibly complex and extremely well written. One can play the game a hundred times and still miss what's going on under the surface if you're not actively trying to understand what is going on.
To clear some stuff up about Halo 2, you switch between John and the Arbiter so that you are able to experience the Covenant Civil War from the Arbiter's perspective whereas exploring the reasons for it would be impossible from John's point of view.
The first level with the Arbiter occurs on a gas mining station above Threshold. In a previous cutscene, Vandamee assumed the roll of Arbiter due to his failures to protect Alpha Halo in CE. His job was to head to the mining station and eliminate the heretics there before they could spread anymore "lies." The actual purpose of that mission is so the prophets suppress the truth about the covenant; reclaimer was misinterpreted as reclamation and the prophets ignored this fact as revealed by Mendicant Bias so they could protect their power.
At the end of CE, Guilty Spark floats over to the research station / mining facility and is met by the elite heretic leader. Guilty Spark informs them of humanity's succession to the Forerunners as reclaimers, etc and so the heretic elite realizes that the prophets have been manipulating them.
That's the basics for the arbiter's first level in Halo 2, there are far deeper consequences to the prophet's manipulation, this is just one factor and step in the plan to replace elites with brutes in the Covenant.
Mendicant Bias is a name few who played the Halo 3 campaign (from my experiences at least) are familiar with, yet he is an incredibly important character who set in motion a chain of events that is reason for many things taken for granted in the Halo universe. His story culminates with his redemption for past sins, and the "beef" of his story is explained within text alone in Halo 3. This is stuff that really contributes to the Halo universe, too often completely ignored.
Hopefully its because a remake is coming (the final terminal video in the anniversary addition of 1 heavily hints at such). Also, Halo 4 doesn't draw that much on previous lore besides Cortana and Chief's relationship, so it'd be a great time to start paying attention (especially considering its the first of a trilogy).Thanks man i appreciate it.

Bro you play gow? You should add me. My time is limited these days but if you want to shoot me a FR I'd accept it, just send me a message telling me you go on smogon if you do. (unless your name is obv)I decided to buy it. Not because i really want to play it but because none of my homies want to play Gears of War right now.
(spoilers)and Chief just didn't seem as badass as he used to be.
