Halo 4 will be about Da Cheef!


A lot of people want the next Halo trilogy, dubbed "Reclaimer," to ditch the whole "Halo" story and start anew with the plot. Well, in terms of Halo 4's story, 343 Industries confirmed it will be different, and this time around it'll be focusing on the story of Master Chief and Cortana.

"It's a direct continuation and evolution of the Master Chief's story," 343's Frank O'Connor told 1UP.

"We're going to be pretty front and center about that. This is about the Master Chief and we're going to make him a deeper and richer character than he's been, but just in the way that I'm sure Bungie would have naturally done anyway. "

In terms of his sidekick, Cortana, O'Connor added that she was approaching the end of her lifecycle in Halo 3, mentioning she's been "exposed to far more information and far more technology than any other A.I. in existence." As a result, Cortana will "develop some weapons and some muscle from that process, but it also directly contributes to her rampancy."

I'm calling it: Cortana will create some super weapon that, when used, will kill her as well. Any takers?
