In Response To: Re: Explain it like I'm 5 (Ragashingo)

: I like Greg Bear's take on the Forerunners and Halo's distant past, but the
: Halo story was good long before he got to add his mark to it.

Agreed (for the most part). I'm saying that Greg Bear is the reason, post-Bungie, that the Halo story is any good. I shudder to think what would have happened if they released H4 and there were no Forerunner novels at all. I mean same H4 that we have now. Same Karen Traviss novels. No Greg Bear novels, as in, no Forerunner novels at all to attempt to set up a lot of what's going on in H4. Just a total failure, as opposed to a partial. The man's amazing. Put him in charge of at least helping to edit the writing of the stories within the games. If not the scripts themselves, at least let him see the games' first, second, and third acts to see if they flow together logically (and intersect logically with the novels he's written).
