But remember this: it’s Halo and it works just as good as other Halo games before it. STORY AND SETTING Story takes place 20 years prior to first Halo game and 5 years after the human-covenant war began. In a distant colony planet Harvest the Covenant has found an ancient Forerunner technology and they are seeking some...
