The Face of Halo’s Master Chief

This video has been circulating around the net, and it pretty much shows the face of Halo’s resident action hero, Master Chief. The face can be seen thanks to two players inn the beta who worked together to force the camera inside his helmet. Granted, it’s really shadowy and all you can really make out are some basic facial features, but it’s this is still the first tiem we’ve really seen anything underneath that helmet. I’m mostly surprised they actually put anything resembling a face behind the mirror-like visor though.
well we all can agree on one thing this games is going to be very good
there are more spartans that are alive, in the book, ‘first strike’ you find out that some of them survived the attack on reach.
in the book ‘ghosts of onyx’ at least one of them survives and is still there at the end of the book, at the back of the book it states that the book is set at the time when the covenant attacks earth for the first time.
seeing that the whole series takes place in a few days maybe the other Spartans will appear.
not sure if I’m right or not but in the new e3 trailer when the chief is in the pelican, heading towards the halo, the pilot does not look like a regular marine but has a similar type of armor of halo combat evolved, maybe it’s a spartan with out the mjolnir upgrade???????????????????????????????
i know hes a guy i just want to know what he looks like
The spartans that survived reach were killed in halo wars.if any1 has seen the trailer then u saw the spartans
if you did your research halo wars takes place before the first halo game, and before the battle on reach.
the group of spartans in the trailer were called ’spartan group omega’ they were the first versions of the spartans and so could die in the strategy game.
if it was the master chief, who is a spartan II and he died it would end the game due to the story line ending.
the halo 3 character face is most likely a generic face used to map out the helmet, in halo 1 and 2 the marines heads were based on members of the bungie company and the face was mapped around the frame
woah woah woah…….what????
Some of you need to read the novels and game plotlines before posting in order for correct info to be published. Severedspirit is correct, Omega group is before h1. Only Bungie(for now)knows if this is MC’s face or another Spartan. MC is not the only Spartan to even have made it off the Pillar of Autumn alive.
oneminizut is also correct, in the book, ‘the fall of reach’ the spartans were all gathered on the pillar of autumn ready to try and capture a prophet from a covenant ship. however just before they did, the covenant fleet attacked the planet.
they split into to forces, half went down in a pelican, it was hit and they dived out, 1 out of the group died and they continued off to help some marines.
the other group which consisted of the master chief went to safe the generator powering the orbital mac gun, this is where they found Sgt johnson and some other officers. one of the spartans there was hit and taken with them. that i know of master chief was the only ‘conscious’ spartan to arrive on halo.
in the book ‘first strike’ the master chief comes across one of the stasis pods with a spartan in it, this is the one that got injured and took on to the autumn.
they also returned to the planet reach where they found ‘Halsey’ the creator of the spartan project, she was with some marines and spartans. she however took 2 or 3 of these spartans to a planet called onyx. this is found out about in the book ‘ghosts of onyx’ 1 of the spartans died and another remains to teach other soldiers how to fight.
hope this solved and plot holes in the halo stories. one other thing if you follow this link to a wikipedia page you can see that there are about 8 surviving spartans all together, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPARTAN-II_Project
also 1 of the spartans called SPARTAN-062 “Maria has retired but lives in Songnam, South Korea, on planet Earth, if you have played the halo 2 campaign, when you are testing your new gear he gunnery sgt says it ‘just came up from Songnam this morning’ if she is on earth and can still use spartan armour then she mighjt make it into the halo 3 game
if you look on xbox 360 you can download a comercial that will show you master chief as a kid
actually there is no proof that it is the chief, the commercial shows 2 young children, it could be john and maybe his friend kelly, see fall of reach book. however they were taken straight to the planet reach until they were in fighting form, they did not go to earth, however the trailer is definitely earth. so i guess its just to shock the audience with the big bang.
one last thing, in the book spartan 117 had ginger hair, the child in the trailer did not.
oh ya he was the only one to escape but the only answer is this….
MC is the last spartan
he is a guy
he is white
and he kicks @$$
man da masta chief is wierd
man da masta chief is wierd but he does kick @$$

Say it a couple times you’ll figure it out
You all is wrong.A creator from Halo wanted to be a part of the game,so he added his face.Look it up on youtube.Everyone will tell you.
actually you too are wrong, the face on the spartan is not a bungie employee but a generic face used for all the faces. the only differences between them is texture and colors/shading. this can be seen in the book ‘art of halo’
however a bungie employee did get his face in the game, on the level ‘containment’, the one with the two bases covered in snow, if you look at the halo ring with a sniper rifle one of the clouds is the image of a persons face smiling, many believe it to be ‘Frankie’.
before posting your ‘facts’ please look them up and verify that they are correct. only 15 days to go and 15 days to find out for sure.
Tisk.It’s sad that you think that.If you had watched the E3 video,it was announced. u_u I just checked again,so you get your facts right,okay?
actually in the first e3 trailer there was speculation of a face coming through the visor. this was noticed by bungie and they said it was a real time reflection of the visor, the same image of a distorted ark opening. why would bungie keep the face a secret and then suddenly blurt out,”by the way i am the face of the chief”. they have never shown the face anywhere. that is that. if you don’t believe me ash bungie
how about this sam is not dead maby when he was about to die he swaped lifestile with mc. also that face is a graphic moulding key its just the print of an average head if you want to see his real head play the last game he gets his visa shot and you see his face as he dies dum dum dullulululm thata mutch i know peice out
^ WTF I hope that last part is not true because then you just ruined the damn story.
He dosent die. just finished it.
k yo im betting the other spartan that was injured in teh stasis on the pillar of autumn switched with john and since the other spartan was a girl the spoiler will be that it is a woman not the john 117 we kno and love
That is not the masterchief in halo1 they showed the face of a asian chick
ol of you ar wrong in halo123 you can not see mc`s face
youl are stuepid
WTF DUM @$$ ILL FIND THE ENDING ANYWAY THEY WILL PROPBLEY SHO MC FAVE IN HALO WARS AS ONE OF THE SPARTINS WARRIORS U DUM PRICK NEVER TELL ANYONE ENDINGS U G@Y TOSSA
Wow all acting like a bunch of children. Grow up.
@severedspirit
He never met kelly when he was a kid, all of his spartan buddys were new to him.
so do you actually see his face at all in the game? cos i played it all and completed every level on legendary n still nt seen nothin, some guy on anuva forum said u see it on the arc level but i never saw it.
An interesting fact about Master Chief is that his name is John, and he’s a Spartan. Do you remember the film Demolition Man with Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes? Where Sylvester plays as John Spartan?
Hee hee.
you could be on to somthin there! lol
OK i have a couple hundred things to say 1:In multiplayer mode it is not master chief you play as it is a similar spartan(most likely spartanII) 2:Master chief is human 3:Master chief is white with red hair(it says in the books)3:Master chief’s ball sack has been removed it says in the books.lol.4:I don’t think you’ll ever see master chief face, you might hear description but the producers are probably too lazy to do it so they made a helmet.
this will clear up some confusion, i have played the game in legendary mode and all i can say is that you never see his face in the game, you will not see it in halo wars as he does not take place in it, read the ‘fall of reach’
he has red hair and is male so people who think its a girl called john are obviously screwed in the head.
and the message above me states his balls were removed, hes not a cat, they don’t cut them off, they gave him some injections which remove certain characteristics but leave testosterone which makes him aggressive in combat.
in halo 3 multiplayer, you customise your spartan or elite, the chiefs armor is very noticeable so you couldn’t use it for online mode
This message is for Nibon ninja, master feaf (especially you since you can’t even spell stupid),Real master chief, scott, Brandon D, and D-man. You’re all a bunch of f–king retards. Try learning how to spell and use proper English grammar when you write and talk. It’ll make people think you aren’t as incredibly stupid as you are. You might do well to actually go back to kindergarden and start over. And anyone who actually thinks you can see the MC’s face here is an even bigger retard than these guys.

*Spoilers in this post*
Master chief is not human, he is forunner, you find out on the level Halo right before you fight 343 guilty spark
again wrong, he is human, however he is descended from the forerunners, this is why commander keyes, sgt johnson and the chief are all able to activate the rings.
they still contain the same dna and forerunner code. its like saying you have dna from your mum, but you are not your mum are you.
guilty spark is also going mad, he is telling the truth that he has furerunner dna but thats as far as it goes, thats 100 000 years of evolution for you
it is just dark inside his helmet and he looks ugly (scars / no eye)
!
because he is battle scared!
from what ive herd i think i know in the ark you have to be in xboxlive and enter a cheatcode that is how to see master cheafs face i`m not telling the code go fined it yourself but i will give you a hint go to you toob master cheaf .com good luck
how can that be his face u cant even see his eyes
oh wait mybad i can see 1 eye and a nose he;s mad ugly
what did you say
this is to Dave (aka Mr.dictionary), why dont you go f**k a goat and stop being such a picky arse hole about the way people write things! this a forum for halo 3 not for people who think there hard and want to take the piss.
thats not his face i just read on halopedia that that is a model of one of the employees face if you go on halopedia it shows you a cleaned up version of the face search master chief scroll down until you see john117s face and read it
@severedspirit
Well damnit, you’ve got me there
@===============
They can say that a face was another model. They can say anything and most people will beleive it. I’m not beleiving it untill I see a comparison of the so called “Bungie employee” and the face.
