Here's the biggest clue yet that the Master Chief will appear in Halo: Reach



Here's the biggest clue yet that the Master Chief will appear in Halo: Reach

Check out this exchange in an interview that videogamer.com did with Joe Tung and Eric Osborne (Urk!) from Bungie as they did promo chats for Reach at E3:


Q: Does Master Chief pop up in any shape or form in Halo: Reach?


JT: Reach takes place just prior to the events of Halo 1. Beyond that I don't think we want to talk any more about what's going on in the campaign, unfortunately.

EO: It's a standalone prequel, so Master Chief's story begins after the events of Reach.

Q: So is that no, Master Chief is not in the game?


JT: That's... er... we're not talking about that right now

-

You would have thought that if the Master Chief was not in Halo Reach they would have just said NO. 

Instead they didn't and thus continued to build expectations that 117 will be in Reach. They will know the effects of saying stuff like this in an interview - if the Chief was not in Reach then Bungie would be crucified by the Halo community for allowing expectations to be built by not confirming the Chief was not in Reach. If that made sense!
