Same video, with a little extra thrown in =P

So, Halo Reach follows the next step in Spartan evolution. Meaning all Spartans in Halo Reach will automatically be stronger than Master Chief since he is a Spartan 2. Interesting.

A tad, I haven't seen the extended version posted here yet tho so I thought I would =P

Uhm, what are you talking about? Spartan 3's actualy can't compete with real Spartan II's

shouldnt the tech behind Spartan 3s be better? I mean seriously the first Spartan project was a failure. Spartan II nearly killed everyone but a small percentage. Spartan 3 should be more advanced to limit death but give similar strength and abilities as Spartan 2s. Only major difference would be the suits as Spartan 2 armor seems to be way stronger.

You might think so, but Spartan II's are the ultimate case of "they don't build 'em like they used to."

Spartan II's were by far the most advanced - it's why so many died. Not because they didn't know what they were doing, but because the genetic enhancements were so vast, a lot of the subjects simply couldn't handle it. Spartan III's however are far less enhanced - in fact there's virtually no risk of them dying due to the far less intrusive modifications.

Spartan II's only had a very small pool of candidates that were even genetically suitable to TRY those modifications on. And even most of them died. Spartan III's were more along the lines of throw-away Spartans. Cheaper, weaker, but far more effective than marines or even ODSTs.

This, SSJ read the Game Informer issue with Halo Reach on the front page, everything is explained in that article, with some juicy lore.

Where was the extended bit??

The regular one is about a minute, this is almost 3 minutes, figure it out =P lol
