The Death of Master Chief in Halo 3? [UPDATE 2]

[Originally posted August 3rd, 2007, then September 13th, 2007]
If you recall, in my impressions of the E3 2007 trailer, I noted there was a note of finality to it:
an evocative final shot of Master Chief - if it goes to black like The Sopranos… anyway, this trailer felt like this is it for our Master Chief. Sort of sad, really.
Well, Xbox 360 Fanboy is spectulating such a sad event, because there’s been some new promotional material that strongly hints at John-117’s death:
The 7th Columnist wrangled up a Halo 3 ad that is featured in the latest issue of EGM and is worded in such a way that it almost sounds as if they are remembering Master Chief. You know, like he was gone or had passed away. It’s quite the interesting ad indeed. Also, as part of the Halo 3 sponsored Projekt Revolution tour, a Halo 3 advertisement pamphlet was handed out and talks of musical celebration that is “honoring the life and legend Master Chief John-117″. Sounds very “Master Chief is dead, let’s remember his life” to us.
If true, will you cry at the fateful moment? Or at least sigh wistfully?
September 13th, 2007 UPDATE:
The current “BELIEVE” series of videos - so far “The Museum” and “Believe” both strongly hint at the way Master Chief may meet his end. Major Czernek talks about running out of ammo and Master Chief arming a grenade in a decisive moment, crying as he talks about the Chief giving them all hope. The next video depicts a defeated Master Chief being held by his scruff by a Brute in the midst of chaos - with Master Chief activating his grenade and looking up.
Is this depicting the Master Chief in the moment of his greatest triumph - and sacrifice? The videos seem to be strongly hinting that.
September 14th, 2007 UPDATE:
If you visit the new “Believe” site, you’re treated to a very nifty 3D representation of the diorama, where you can take screenshots for wallpaper photos anywhere you like. Now, normally this would be ultra-cool, except one of the notes you must make is that the diorama is called “The John-117 Monument”.
Add to that that the last “Believe” video will be released October 1st, a week after the release of the game, and is called “Gravesite”.
Dudes, Master Chief dies. In fact, at this point, I’ll be kinda pissed off if he doesn’t.
August 3rd, 2007 at 12:44 pm
Chief was born way post 2000 NOOB!
I would love to see him die… Solid Snake too.
August 3rd, 2007 at 12:46 pm
Chief was born way post 2000 NOOB!
Um, if you take that literally, you’d think I was saying MC was 6 years old when he died.
I would love to see him die…
Do you mean that with a gleeful chuckle or just want to see a heroic death and/or a sad ending to the trilogy?
August 3rd, 2007 at 12:49 pm
Actually, I strongly hope the ending invokes an emotional response from me. If that is crying, so be it. I love emotional endings. I’d cry for the Arbiter or even Half-jaw too.
I’m more hoping it will be a, “Take that you Covenant or Flood bastards”!
August 3rd, 2007 at 1:27 pm
Well im hoping that the ending would be sorta like a savior. He dies to save the Earth from the covenant/flood
August 3rd, 2007 at 2:04 pm
No, I love the Chief, but the dude has seen some hard times, and he’s a little old. I want to see him go out in a heroic manner. Snake too.
August 3rd, 2007 at 2:26 pm
lol he dies all the time anyway. nothing new he’ll just respawn
August 4th, 2007 at 2:39 am
umm…the Halo: Combat Evolved came out in 2001. Isn’t obvious?
August 5th, 2007 at 8:20 pm
he dies? bye bye jhon gonna miss ya
August 6th, 2007 at 9:13 am
Ahh the sad death of MC only time will tell but in speculation i believe he will die
August 6th, 2007 at 12:09 pm
Its just a publicity stunt, the MC could die but I don’t think so.
August 6th, 2007 at 4:10 pm
If he dies, I know Bungie will pull it off right and not “jump the shark” just to get publicity.
If he dies, I’ll cry. I know I will. I cried at the end of the 4th book, that was pretty hardcore.
August 6th, 2007 at 6:54 pm
The fourth book being Ghosts of Onyx?
Lame.
That book had weaksauce as its primary ingredient.
August 6th, 2007 at 9:13 pm
I’ll start balling if master cheif dies.
But you aall are over looking one small thing….master chief is invincible. nothing could kill him.not the flood because its been hinted that SPARTANS are impervious to flood(borans syndrome)
and If and i mean IF he passes he’ll finally be with his fellow spartans.(man im tearing up just thinking about it)
and I think it will come out that ONI (office of naval intellegence) does alot of Black ops.theres alot of things to be answered for from them.
but master cheif has always been my hero and to see it all end will be very difficult for not only me but millions of others.
August 7th, 2007 at 11:42 am
As a writer, I think it would be a fitting end for the Master Chief to perish in glorious battle. It’s the only thing left for the Chief; it’s not like he can retire and start a family…
August 7th, 2007 at 1:28 pm
If the Chief were to die in Halo 3,
I would like to see him go out with
an bang, not with an whimper.
Like taking the Covenant and the Flood
with him in an nuclear explosion.
My hat’s off to you Chief, see you in Halo 3.
(excuse the bad typing)
August 8th, 2007 at 11:04 am
if he dies he should go like Sam did after all sam was Mc’s Best Friend
August 8th, 2007 at 12:23 pm
SPOILER?:
Sam was in Fall of Reach, yeah? He stayed behind while the others went?
August 8th, 2007 at 6:05 pm
Solitary has a good point. But i will cry if not on the outside on the inside. He trained all his life for this. He had to know hed die sometimes whether peacefully or in combat. But as Chris said at least he’ll be with his friends. But… if the Arbiter doesn’t die i have a feeling he will lead the elites.
August 9th, 2007 at 10:22 pm
I would like to see Chief die - as badass as he is and how much I love him, it’s obviously the best way to end the game.
Also, it’ll ensure us that Bungie is serious when they say this is the end of the Halo story arc and we won’t see Halo 16 thirty years down the road (coughcoughFinalFantasy).
“But you aall are over looking one small thing….master chief is invincible. nothing could kill him.not the flood because its been hinted that SPARTANS are impervious to flood(borans syndrome)
and If and i mean IF he passes he’ll finally be with his fellow spartans.(man im tearing up just thinking about it)”
As for you, judging by your post, I cannot tell if you are serious or not, but if you are - how can you go from talking about the Chief being invincible to talking about the other 299 Spartans who have died (proof enough that Chief/nor any other Spartan is invincible)?
August 12th, 2007 at 8:50 pm
I think it would be cool if Johnson/(or someone close or meaningful) was there with him. As he died and as he was badly wounded or something and because of his wounds he couldnt breathe so he needs Johnson/(other) to take off his helmet or something. And just before he died you see his face.
August 13th, 2007 at 7:32 am
he cant die or bungie will get death threats and h8 mail just like when hideo kojima tried to leave kojima productions and i dont think bungie will because its too much of a financial loss to kill him off
August 13th, 2007 at 1:52 pm
hahah i will cry even if he doesnt die because its the end of the games….=*( and also ill prolly cry when the movie comes out
(jk i ownt cry…i like to think i will tho)
August 14th, 2007 at 5:46 am
I think it’d be great if it was like sam also, but you got to be in a hall way sort of protecting a bomb or an opening to the protecting Ark or whatever as millions of enemys flood into the hallway [no pun intended.] and you fight until you die, instead of respawning you have an end scene where the door shuts on the bad guys and the halos go off or the bomb goes off as they rush to stop it.
August 15th, 2007 at 1:23 am
I think that if Spartan-117, John dies he has to go in the face of overwhelming odds and triumphs but mortally wounded, so the other characters could react to it, Cortana cries, Johnson hands him a cigar, and the Arbiter “Brutally” kills the nearest Brute. Or you get a close up of his eyes as he dies, showing his life, and his final mission fulfilled. I might cry, it depends.
August 15th, 2007 at 3:16 pm
I will without a doubt shed a tear if Spartan-117 dies. I’ve watched the e3 trailers available on the marketplace over and over again simply because they are so moving. Whenever I hear the music and think of the storyline and gaming experience…I just don’t see how you couldn’t be moved by his death.
If they ever do get a movie made with quality people behind it I’ll have a hard time seeing it if its based on Halo 3.
I really don’t want to see him die but I know it would be one of the greatest endings in video game history, and Bungie more then has the balls to do it.
August 16th, 2007 at 4:01 pm
@Lemon SqueezE: You mean akin to the end of Return of the Jedi? Lol.
It would so be Bungie’s style if there was a “Johnson…take off my helmet…” as 117 is laying on the ground with Sarge kneeling next to him. Then Johnson takes off MC’s helmet, but the camera pans to an angle where Johnson’s torso obscures MC’s face. And then somewhere a bajillion bombs go off and all the rest of the Rings (along wit High Charity and the Flood) go kablooie. Bam.
August 16th, 2007 at 8:51 pm
I dont care if he dies, i just want to see the face
ITs the GAME that you play, not the storyline. it just makes it more interesting.
August 16th, 2007 at 10:57 pm
I think that they’ll both will live in the end. The Chief will come back for her and stomp all over the Flood after saving Earth…
August 18th, 2007 at 8:36 am
Wait wait wait… people see a slight similarity between a trailer and a crappy tv show and they think the character is going to die… and the article was probably remembering him for his role in Halo. He won’t be in Halo wars and future projects but it doesn’t mean he’s going to die.
August 19th, 2007 at 6:38 pm
I think we should see his face because a the end of the Metroid games we get to see bounty hunter Samus Aran’s face so why can it not be the same for Master Chief.
August 19th, 2007 at 10:44 pm
This is truly a sad day in the Halo universe when the Chief’s greatest fans talk in idle chatter of his death. Chief probably will die, but have faith. Whether he dies or not, we need to hope he will live, in one way or another…
August 20th, 2007 at 10:13 pm
it would be good with MC dying because it’ll be touching and sad but if not, blaa.
it’s not gonna be like star wars return of the jedi where mc asks johnson to take off his helmet, why would he do that it’s stupid it’s mc.what if mc’s ugly s crap that would ruin it.
August 21st, 2007 at 10:55 am
I have to agree with James on this one. MC taking his helmet off would be so out of place in the game.
# a - Giving the Master Chief an articulated face takes away from the perception of the gamer being MC. You won’t playing AS Master Chief anymore.
# b - No matter what he looks like, I can guarantee you that everyone will be dissapointed. Unless, of course he turns out to be Forerunner or something so freaking radical that nobody expected it.
Keep it on Master Chief. We’re all bracing for your final bow. Go out with some dignity.
August 21st, 2007 at 3:59 pm
Hmmm i dont know if Master cheif dies.. but for sure the arbiter will die because the arbiters mission in life is to regain honour in death. (Preventing the firing of the halos etc.)
August 24th, 2007 at 1:27 am
Im sorry folk he dies in halo 3. It the last halo and it did not take place on halo it took place on earth. He died saving us all and the universe. The weapon is for to destroy the universe. But i believe he will die with sacrifice of destroying the weapon. It funny remember all of the covenent is at earth cause of halo 2. I beleve the elite will help master cheif cause of the brute remember. the elite the second main caracher is in halo 3. It a civil war people. The elite ar pissed cause of the brute get it. The weapon explosion that master chief die in will kill all of the convenet. There will be no flood on earth cause they ar only on halo unless the convenet took them with them. Master chef is our hero but Halo War is coming out and the halo the movies is coming out too so it not the end.
August 25th, 2007 at 7:33 pm
Well, I don’t know if the Master Chief will die, but either way it’ll be good. A) He dies, gets a hero’s funeral and legend akin to Achilles (or King Leonidas, if you want to go all-out Spartan), or B) He lives, and he’s the biggest hero ever. However, I truly doubt he’ll die, as Bungie would be killing off their number 1 moneymaker and biggest icon.
OFFTOPIC: However, on the topic of Halo deaths, what did catch me by surprise and was a little touching was Tex’s death in the series finale of Red vs. Blue. Also, it was cool seeing sarcastic Church going all noble trying to save her and his reaction when she bought the farm. Although Halo owns all, Red vs. Blue deserves a special place in the video game pantheon too.
August 26th, 2007 at 4:54 am
If MC does die they should add some funeral
scene at the end were they bury him.
August 27th, 2007 at 10:32 am
they at least show his face since its the last game
* * *
I THINK A CREMATION WOULD BE MORE ACCETABLE SINCE IF HES ASHES THE FLOOD CAN NEVER CLAIM HIS BODY
August 28th, 2007 at 1:47 am
Having John die is the best possible way to end the game. King Leonidas isn’t famous for winning the battle and dying of old age, he’s famous for dying heroically in battle. Same goes for the Master Chief. And as ChunkyMonkey said, having them show the Chief’s face will only be disappointing and utterly anti-climactic. And what possible reason would there be for him dying in such a way that he’s capable of taking off his mask and showing his face? I believe, instead, it’d be more along the lines of “Wow, did you see that gigantic explosion that the Master Chief was caught in the middle of and couldn’t have possibly survived?” But at the same time, an ending like this would be best because it’s only believed that he died, but there’s still a shimmering hope that somehow he survived.
August 28th, 2007 at 4:27 pm
[...] Via Game Stooge [...]
August 28th, 2007 at 4:58 pm
dude the Mc can’t die….well he can but when he dies the rest of the spartans( kelly fred and linda) the spartn IIIs and the Dr. have to show up at the funeral and u get to see other spartans for 1st time
…everwonder how elites r made…is the arbiter/half jaw a chick???!!! dun dun duhhh
August 29th, 2007 at 6:07 am
I reckon he’ll do something crazy like activate halo before he dies.
My hypothesis: He’s surrounded by flood, trying to eat him, and then he says “Fight Finished” and he puts the index into the control thingy and the camera snaps to Earth, where everybody is fighting and dying, and suddenly, a bright light come out of nowhere and then the camera whites out. Then it shows new mombasa completly barren and empty.
I think it would be sad and intresting if the MC dies, but he probably won’t, because nothing can kill the chief.
P.S: Can’t wait till H3
August 29th, 2007 at 6:09 am
The cheif will NEVER die. Besides he’ll just respawn.
I hope the arbiter dies though, it will be cool, like he gets run though by a brute with a plasma sword.
August 29th, 2007 at 1:07 pm
OK, it seems like everyone here thinks that the best way for Halo 3 to end would be with Master Chief’s life being held in question…. just had a thought… what would be the WORST ending?
I know Bungie wouldn’t dare do this but what if Halo 1 - 3 all turned out to be a dream sequence.
Arrgh!! just that thought makes me breathe heavy with rage.
August 29th, 2007 at 1:29 pm
The worst thing would be another cliffhanger.
August 29th, 2007 at 1:39 pm
I would punch Frank O’ Connor and Co. in the teeth.
August 30th, 2007 at 9:21 pm
Well considering all the seemingly hopeless battles the Chief has gotten himself into, and won I doubt very much he would die. Though he might be transported 100′000 years in the past onto instillation 04 where he meets 343 Guilty Spark and activates the halo.
September 1st, 2007 at 12:49 am
MC won’t time travel… Bungie has admitted that time travel is too bizzare and corny.
September 1st, 2007 at 4:11 pm
dude hes gonna respawn again..if he doesnt then its gotta be a publicity stunt
September 1st, 2007 at 4:13 pm
dude thatd be hilarious if he had a heart attack before he destroyed all the rings..
September 1st, 2007 at 4:31 pm
the dream sequence: theroy crappy
return of the jedi: theroy crappyer
chief activating the halos: makes no sense (why would you go through all of that trouble to stop truth from activating the halos just so chief can do it himself
chief living: whole lot of shit would have to go down and he comes out on top
chief dying: would be sad but would it be after big battle him getting hit with some spiker rounds still kills all enemies and just falls and dies (after remembering every thing that happened in the past) or 300 dying (ausome huge battle bullets grenades gravity hammers and all that crap and ends up dying and arby finishes them off)
takes his helmet off: anti-climatic but answers alot of questions and raise some more
any other ending: depends
OFFTOPIC: ever wonder just how pissed of chief would get if jhonson dies (not the way in Halo when you can kill him) but if a jackal snipes him just wanna throw that out there
September 1st, 2007 at 7:39 pm
How about this -
The flood is defeated after Cortana goes Rampant inside the Gravemind, and the Chief manages to destroy the ark and with it the other five rings. Then the Brutes are wiped out along with the Prophets and the Covenant is Broken. Everyone leaves Human Space with Spartan-117 triumphant but dying. His last act is to ask the Arbiter to kill him, which he does by running him through with the sword. He is also dying - and gives Johnson the sword to finish him off. The End.
The way to crappify the above ending - Johnson then goes with Keyes and some Marines to a bar, where they all get their drinks and Johnson hits the jukebox. Out of it we here the first few lines of “Don’t Stop Believing” and the screen fades to black.
September 3rd, 2007 at 4:58 am
I think it would be better if the Arbiter died - not many people would see that coming, no-one would shed a tear either. I mean he was always destined to die, as all the other Arbiters before him. A heroic last stand with Johnson beside him against like a brazillion Brutes should be the go. MC shouldn’t die, and we certainly shouldn’t see his face - it would just ruin him seeing some pale white dude underneath that awesome gold visor. He should kill Gravemind by like jumping onto its back with a gravity hammer or an energy sword and hacking it to bits. I wonder how they’re going to kill Truth? Explosion? Shotgun? Sword? Melee? Stick? The possibilities are endless.
What would be an awesome ending is MC finds the last of the Forerunners in the Ark, and the Forerunner does the whole Jesus/Neo/Shinji thing with him and makes into him a superhuman transcendant martyr in order to destroy the flood. That’s why Arbiter and Johnson would be doing their last stand out the front of the Ark.
God, I cannot wait 22 days for this game. It has to be NOW. NOW!
September 3rd, 2007 at 12:49 pm
Ya’ll know how Cortana say’s this is how the world ends. What if Cortana has been working wit the gravemind all along and she fires all the halos.
September 3rd, 2007 at 1:27 pm
Dynamite, if you’re referring to Shinji from Evangelion, at least Neo accomplished something besides conquering his own pussy-fear of himself.
September 3rd, 2007 at 2:38 pm
if mc dies or the arbiter ill think it goes something like this(arbiter but actually doesnt die but read it anyway) hes on a big platform fighting grave mind and he tries to slash in the head wit a energy sword and slashes his head open and lobs a plasma grenade in its head and the force of the explosion throws him offf the platform and he plunders into the earth in the indian ocean and a big forerunner (that glows blue) thing floats about in the sea then it touches the arbiter and his eyes open and there glowin blue and he has like supermutant powers or somet tune next week to think how mc dies goodbye
September 4th, 2007 at 9:45 am
man of coarse he died i mean hav u ever played legendary all this time hes died on every xbox
he wont be gone for good i just think it meens this is the last game beacuse they win the wars and its all over
September 4th, 2007 at 4:24 pm
I think Arbiter is gon sacrifice hisself and be all like “It is my destiny to perish here” then him and Gravemind get blown up
September 4th, 2007 at 6:09 pm
Spartans never die they just go mia. But what if they make it so master chief is the only one posted as kia?
September 5th, 2007 at 12:25 pm
They do DIE, they just don’t report them as dead to kill the morale of the people on Earth.
Plenty of Spartans died.
Almost all of them did.
September 5th, 2007 at 12:37 pm
mc will die leading the unsc into battle against the arbiter
spartans spartans
September 5th, 2007 at 10:16 pm
i know someone already said bungie said time travel was corny, but the halo rings were activated once, we assume it was the forerunners, but what if the master chief goes back in time and activates the rings? then goes back to when he was on the first halo ring and prevents the release of the flood? and then goes forward in time and takes on the covenant and saves earth? i dont know if he will die or not but to me if he does die it better be in a totally awesome way
September 6th, 2007 at 3:26 pm
mitchyD I know they die im saying that they are always reported mia and if master chief dies instead of being reported mia he will be the only one out of all the spartans to be reported kia.
September 7th, 2007 at 8:55 pm
Die? spartans never die
September 8th, 2007 at 12:03 am
he will go back in time and activate the original halos that is how he dies the moniter said it himself “last time you asked me would i do it having considerable time …… yes i would ” meaning the chief or a spartan did it , now if there r no more spartans that arent in the shield world then who is left???. ,timetravel, they did it in marathon and bungie copy/pasted much of that story to halo so why not this
September 8th, 2007 at 12:36 am
Yeah they do. I’ve seen it.
September 8th, 2007 at 4:20 am
No,
Johnson dies, Arbiter dies, half jaw dies and Cortana … powers down?
Master Chief is ownage.
September 8th, 2007 at 4:54 pm
If the chief dies it’ll be with a bang. A BIG bang.But what I think could hapen is this:
The halos are activated, the Arbiter and the chief are running to the ark, the only safe place from the halos. Earth starts to explode, just as Mc and Arbiter get to the Ark the door starts to close, then a brute shoots the Arbiter in the back. in his last moments, the Arbiter grabs Mc, and thows him into the Ark. The door closes.In this last, selfles act, The arbiter gains honor through death. Then the ark lefts of and flys away, jumps into slip space as the planet explodes in a nice big Ka-BOOOOM! then the ark comes out of slip space at a halo thing, but this one is just a place to live not a weapon. then it shows the inside of the ark. Mc is leaning against a control panle looking out a window,then the camera slowly pans arownd him, and he begins to take his helmet off,and starts to cry. you never see his face exsept the back of his head. Cortana, Johnnson, Kees, Arbiter, Earth, Every one, every thing dies. then it fades black and starts to play the halo 1 end music.
what ever, thats my Idea, all most shed a tear wile riting it to…
September 8th, 2007 at 8:24 pm
yea ill get “emotional” if he dies, but i think sure theyre going to activate the rings in the end any way idk
September 8th, 2007 at 8:29 pm
the arbiter does die,too bad to i like the elites i think theyre really cool
September 9th, 2007 at 1:11 am
ok i have to clarify a couple things: halo rings wipe out all lifeforms that could support the flood, no explosions, and no ship could save you from it. also ive read that bungie definitely has a real ending this time but it will be like a little mysterious, i think as in an explosion that would be ALMOST impossible for MC to survive. i also read that the Marathon guy has like mjolnir armor and a bunch of other spartan~y things so he might like somehow be MC 200 yrs later. i havent played it tho so idk
September 9th, 2007 at 1:28 am
i think or at least hope that the arbiter dies, but before the very so his death doesnt like overshadow MCs. johnson should also die, maybe even with the arbiter, because his survival probably would make the ending anticlimactic (and the black guy always DOES die first lol). id bet that miranda lives AND becomes a/the humans’ ruler =( finally i really have no idea what might happen to cortana the rings or the covenant, except that somehow humans will win/survive.
September 9th, 2007 at 1:38 am
one last thing lol: does anyone else find it odd that from all the campaign info we have so far, it seems as if the flood just ceased to exist??? o.O
September 9th, 2007 at 11:16 am
I probably should have said this, but what I meant by the earth blowing up is that the bruets are bombing the planet, and stuff. sorry about that.
I agree with wiisux, how come we’ve heard nothing of the flood yet??
September 9th, 2007 at 11:20 am
oh, and srry bout spelling
September 12th, 2007 at 12:40 pm
I’d like to see MC go out by he and Cortana melding as one and soaring off into the wild black vastness of the universe as pure intelligent energy. Now that would be a cool conclusion
[Someone's watched too much Star Trek: The Motion Picture, I see. :p - jonahfalcon]
September 12th, 2007 at 6:52 pm
wha???
September 12th, 2007 at 8:48 pm
sure ill cry!!!!! T_T
September 13th, 2007 at 11:27 am
[...] The second “Believe” video has popped up, featuring the same diorama, but with Master Chief and Arbiter in the middle of it, describing an event hinted at by “The Museum” spot. It’s beginning to seem like this is the scene depicting Master Chief’s greatest triumph… (and his death?) [...]
September 13th, 2007 at 2:22 pm
“The next video depics Master Chief and the Arbiter standing calmly in the midst of chaos - Master Chief activating his grenade and looking up.”
Does anyone else notice that statement is very wrong? In the second video he is being held like a trophy, hanging limp, then the grenade activates and he looks up. I think MC will die in the end, but this scene seems to depict a climatic battle, in which the chief looks to be finally defeated, only to escape with a grenade, not his death.
* * *
[That was fixed - depicts was also spelled wrong. Refresh your web cache.
- jonahfalcon]
September 13th, 2007 at 4:48 pm
I noticed it was a Brute holding up Master Chief the first time I saw it.
Arming the grenade for what? This battle’s armageddon I suppose.
September 13th, 2007 at 5:29 pm
Master Chief dying would be sort of tragic, yes…but you never really got close to him emotionally, mor elike picturing him as the GI Joe, the immortal that goes into the frontlines and never gets killed.
but of course it just teaches you that no matter how many amazing things people do, he’s still..human, even if he is a spartan.
PS: Bad yet funny when you think about it ending: Arbitor betrays MC at the last moment and slashes his head off laughing patheticlly insanly as he activates the Halo and gets incenerated while laughing, and all the covanant prepares their great journey and one of them yells ‘onward!” before getting incinerated and then the brutes get incinerated at the leader mutters “damn I should of listened to that Arbitor gu-incineration-” And then the whole universe dies and Cortana gets sucked into a black ole. And then Sg. Johnson crawls out of the cave and yells “what the hell?” halo music, screen fade.
September 14th, 2007 at 4:27 pm
A fitting end I presume.
Master Chief dying is the only way that Bungie could prove this is the last chapter in a great trilogy.
September 14th, 2007 at 7:43 pm
If you check out the interactive diorama on the Halo 3 website, you will come to the conclusion that Master Chief is just putting an end to that battle. He probably stuffs the grenade in the Brute’s mouth and then bails.
Based on what I read, Master Chief does not die in that battle.
September 15th, 2007 at 4:19 am
maybe the trailed is hinting at him being dead AFTER the conflict…i mean…that footage in the trailers was form 2582 or summin right? i mean…who can really kill the chief? curtenly not some stinking fuzz ball brute!!!
September 16th, 2007 at 12:40 am
u know who i think should die
THAT FRIGGIN LOAD OF DUNG 343 Guilty Spark
All he does is say “I am a genius”.
Everyone, go youtube and look at “Master Chief Sucks At Halo”.
Its not mine but soooooooooo funny.

Sgt. Johnson: “Activavte god own anti-Son of a bitch machine, or giant hulahoop or whatever”
Chief: Ok Ok
Arbiter: Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
*Cuts off Johnsons Head*
Arbiter: Shit….
Chief: Damn You, i was going to save the universe with HIM dumbass
*Chief kills arby*
Chief: Bitch……

it does seem like hes going to die from the recent marketing campaigns, but in the diorama, hes only holding a grenade…and at most that would take out a couple baddies, so unless there is more to that grenade than meets the eye, it seems more like this is just where he takes out one of the big bad brutties.

“MC won’t time travel… Bungie has admitted that time travel is too bizzare and corny.”
In Dead or Alive 4 (which had Bungie’s help to create a spartan character) conatains a chick spartan and her story is explained with something to do with time travel.
September 17th, 2007 at 10:21 pm
About the fact that if he dies in the game…
I don’t have time to go over all the posts to see if this was even mentioned..but don’t forget..the monument was made 50 years AFTER the battle that is depicted. That would make John somewhere around the age between 80-90 years old (if he survived)…meaning there’s a chance he just dies of old age. So all that hype about how the people are commemorating a fallen hero..might just be because he dies RECENTLY…50 years or so after that major battle.
September 18th, 2007 at 8:26 pm
Yes, he does die. In the end, Master Chief dies of head trauma due to a strike in the head from a falling scorpion tank. At first he seems ok, but then it is shown that a memorial is built for those who died. UNSC wins, Covenant loses. Oh yeah, that Miranda Keys girl dies and the Arbiter lives. If you don’t believe me, whatever because once it comes out, lets see whos right.
September 19th, 2007 at 12:18 pm

Brownlie707 apparently didn’t finish the credits.
If you wait until after the credits, you see that MC survives, albeit in the middle of space in half of his ship.
The series ends just where it begins - in a stasis chamber. Master Chief says a few words to Cortana, and seals himself off in the chamber while Cortana sends off an SOS beacon.
September 19th, 2007 at 7:48 pm
does sarge die?
September 19th, 2007 at 10:01 pm
The mc doesnt DIE because he gets captured halo 4 will be about him probably getting away and if he dies wut will happen to the other 5 halo’s left cause the marines suck my balls, they cant just blow up all the halo’s

no shit he dies, when i play halo 2 on legendary i see him die like twice a level.
September 21st, 2007 at 3:17 pm
I be very sad if MC dies but people did say harry potter die but he did not he lives but I did whach the spoler (I KNOW) and at the end Cortana says it was an honer severing him and at the very end you can see a blurry thing there I think it MC but I not shear it is not adding up.
forgive bad spelling
September 21st, 2007 at 3:18 pm
I think it is for good
In halo 3 they got to lett cheif live over time a lot of rummers say that the main charaiter dies but there all false
are going to say any thiing
I all so sall THE AARBITER he lives its true but i dont think he leads the elets but he does sake hand with kekys
September 21st, 2007 at 10:01 pm
I think that the master chief will die, simply because its just so final. But they have to get the ending just right, i’m thinking he has some kind of nuke somewhere where all the covenant and/or flood are, then he looks at “the player” and we see flashes of previous battles with more spartans and almost fogotten friends, then the screen goes bright white…
September 22nd, 2007 at 12:12 am
There is no doubt that in trying to create a story of epic proportions (very successfully I might add), that Bungie includes small hidden messages, information, or other clues as to the direction of this unfolding storyline in their TV adds and videos released on the net. It seems to be that with the release of their “Believe” add campaign that it is possible to piece together (somewhat) the final battle, or if not the final battle then at least the decisive battle, of Halo 3. What we simply do not know is the ultimate question of whether Master Chief (henceforth referred to as MC) lives or dies. There are three of these adds which provide the most clues, and which can be said to represent pieces of the plot of this “final battle.” The three adds which I speak of are the adds in which the old man (a survivor of the “final battle”) speaks of his memories of the battle; the add in which a voice over describes to us the motivation and purpose of the diorama which was created to commemorate this battle; and the add in which we see MC being held up by a brute, disarmed except for one plasma grenade which he activated as the camera dramatically zooms into his visor, then fades out. I am assuming that if you have read this far, and are on this site in general, that you have seen these adds at least once, so I will list the parts of these adds which seem important in bullet form, then try to analyze them rather than further explain the context and sequence of the adds. If you have not seen the three adds, I would recommend looking here, or searching something along the lines of “halo 3 believe videos”:
http://media.xbox360.ign.com/media/734/734817/vids_2.html
-MC can be seen apparently defeated (or at least captured) by a Brute, he then clearly activates a grenade, obviously ready to take action (what action, we don’t know)
-In another add, the old soldier is asked what he was doing on that day (referring to the battle, more on this later), and he replies: “When MC activated that grenade, I was…”
-In the other add, it makes the fact very clear that by creating the diorama, they wanted to honor MC and the fight he waged against the Covenant
-In the same add, the old soldier tells us many details about the battle, the most important part being that it was at least seven days long; however, the voice over tells us that every effort was taken to recreate exactly the scene on that day
Now, to tie this all together. It seemed to me when I first watched this that there was an awful lot of stress being places on what they called “that one day.” The fact that the old soldier distinctly remembers (and was asked about) where he was, and what he was doing “when MC activated the grenade” seems to point to special significance of this action. To me, this specific remembrance is quite similar to way in which many people in America place special significance on (and will tell you) what they were doing, or where they were when JFK was assassinated. Additionally, we know that this battle lasted for more than one day (as stated by the old soldier), so why would it be necessary for the diorama of the battle to be exactly accurate to the conditions of one specific day? Obviously, something very important happened on this one day. By now, you most likely have figured out that I am suggesting that the “one day” which carries so much weight with the post-war world is the day in which MC activates his grenade, seemingly, an action which results in his own death.
There is one other piece of information that holds true to (or at least does not contradict) the idea of MC’s death. If you follow the Halo series storyline, and are interested in deciphering some of Bungie’s clues (I am assuming you are) you have probably noticed, or at least heard of, the way that MC fits the role of a messiah-like figure; and have probably heard of or noticed yourself the religious imagery placed in and on the Halo series storyline (trust me its there, if you haven’t ever seen it, do some research of your own, examination of the religious imagery in Halo is really big on the net, you will have plenty of information). Well, assuming that MC fits the role of a Christian messiah-like figure (aka he resembles Jesus), it can be easily seen how MC could die.
Thanks for reading, I’ve basically exhausted the critical analysis part of my brain for now, so I hope you guys have some feedback or other observations/information. I know there are plenty of other theories about the end of the game such as time travel (the Guilty Spark knowing MC thing), as well as ties to the Marathon storylines, but instead of trying to decipher EVERYTHING that is there for those theories, I only offer some information on the question of if MC dies or not. (There’s a reason I focus on that one question, and that’s because all the other theories and critical analyses of them could fill volumes)
P.S. Remember this line from the Cortana letters: “Oh, and your poet Elliot had it all wrong, THIS is the way the world ends” (aka it ends with a bang). Well, how would the world end for MC in the situation I described above (think…. What do grenades do best?)
September 22nd, 2007 at 12:58 am
If you pay careful attention the the videos attached to the Memorial, it states that the Battle of New Mombassa took place 50 years ago in regards to the construction of the memorial. That means ol’ Johnny boy could very well die of natural causes as well. Just because he’s a genetically enhanced super-soldier does not make him immortal. It makes for a lame end to a legendary soldier, then again, that’s probably why the “Gravesite” video won’t go live until Oct. 1.
That’s just my opinion, I could be wrong…..aw, screw it, who wants pie?
September 23rd, 2007 at 2:08 am
Wasn’t the Halo 3 ending leaked? Go watch that and find your answers.
Anyway, since the battle that the old marine was talking of was 50 yrs back, John could’ve died of…well…anything ranging from gunshots (AT that battle the marine was talking about or AFTER it) to being impregnated by the Flood to TAIDs, the *in the future* third level of HIV, and AIDs.
September 23rd, 2007 at 8:02 pm
i think that master chief us a cool guy
September 24th, 2007 at 4:33 am
got game early from tesco near where i live, he diesat the end escapin a halo ring after he destroys it.
he has to get back through a portal to earth but gets killed in the blast
September 25th, 2007 at 10:03 am
i want to see a plama grenade get stuck on his helm and he takes it off and throws it back at like that brute and he runs around fighting without helm on and dies from a bomb or something
September 25th, 2007 at 12:15 pm
@early stop lying. You need to watch the end after the credits.
September 25th, 2007 at 2:36 pm
MC upload Cortana to a system terminal where Cortana able to detonate bombs? While Cortana doing her thing, MC cover her now with suit failure/shield failure/completely defenseless..He fought till the end, he did what he have did for earth and the entire galaxy save from covenant by sacrifice of their only hero… :p whatever..
September 25th, 2007 at 8:17 pm
Yea I would cry too. Im probly just gonna cry since this is the last halo game lol. But just noting… Seeing master chief in videos and stuff and game, He wouldnt die from a gernade. Hes the master chief I mean like his armour and everything is too hardcore for a gernade.
September 25th, 2007 at 8:28 pm
Oh and I found this on wikipedia.
The videos fueled further speculation that Master Chief would die in Halo 3.[9][10] However, according to Bungie, the marketing team making the videos did not know what actually happened to the Master Chief in the game, so speculation based on them alone was most likely unfounded.
September 26th, 2007 at 9:46 am
So like wow halo 3 is so bitchin, the way i see it theres a halo 4, and its gonna pwn, chief didn’t die, the alien made a sob story went back to earth told them, then chief is still on that ship in the end, flying to alien territory, and on the ship when the alien says its not over take me home!!! LIKE WT F WOOOT THIS IS INTERESTING!!!!!!!!!! HALO 4 Baby
September 26th, 2007 at 11:14 am

September 26th, 2007 at 4:34 pm
it sucks how johnson dies he was so cool u know i think like when cheif dies him and cortana should be there watching his funeral and then it would show like his picture in the funeral and its him in his suit or (im just throwin it out there) him without his sute before halo 1 and yes he did igsist because when he was in the chamber at the first seane in halo 1 they like were refreshing his memory but eather way i think at in the end johnson shouldnt have died i think that sucked and it was that blue flotie thing that humms and shit that killed him which ones agin really really sucks
September 26th, 2007 at 4:39 pm
Warning. Spoiler!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Master Chief does not die. He is induced in Cryogenic stasis at the end of the final credits. It only shows Cortana activate a beacon, and tells the Chief “It may be a while before someone finds it. Years maybe.”

September 27th, 2007 at 4:31 am
If you beat the last mission on legendary is shows an aditional vid. of him flying into unknown territory which looks like a giant mechanical planet. like the fu**ing death star. and all the scary music… so ya…. halo 4 IMO
Bungi bullshitted us to the end and now their back again.
September 27th, 2007 at 2:17 pm
Master cheif does die at the end with Cortana Crash landing right at the end… what a way to die
September 27th, 2007 at 2:42 pm
I just finished it in Legendary, and I did not see anything you guys are seeing, so stop BS. Last thing they show Master Chief he is alive in the ship, next they show the funeral for all who died, and number 117 on it. Obviously he did not die, they just making him dead for whatever stupid reason. Also There is not freezing or him flying to another planet
September 27th, 2007 at 6:55 pm
Rafael, my friend…you should have watched past the credits
September 27th, 2007 at 9:14 pm
HOORA
September 27th, 2007 at 9:15 pm
he didnt DIE?? what a relief xP
September 27th, 2007 at 10:32 pm
I must say though, that either ending would have been enough,
I mean, if he died, then it would be because the war is over, he is no longer needed to fight, but now him being alive makes me anxious to why they did that… “wake me, when you need me”
ah well great game
September 28th, 2007 at 12:20 am
ha,ha, your all wrong, i just beat it, and the arbitor kills him with the halo gun. stupidos. but it was a pretty filling game. i did cry when he died, but the arbitor dies after. oh, and theres a nother game called halo wars thats coming out.
September 28th, 2007 at 3:42 am
He says “Wake me, when you need me” because Cortana is a smart AI which can only live for 7 years. Cortana has already used up about 5 of her years so she will probably die on that ship.
Master Chief saying that means “Wake me up when you’re dying”
September 28th, 2007 at 12:42 pm
I just completed it & he seems he dies but with master cheif you never know
September 28th, 2007 at 6:51 pm
Ok. Everyone listen…….beat the game u get the cut screen with the memorial and all that, thne u get the credits. WATCH ALL THE CREDITS. then there will be a brief black screen which then will reveal another cur screen, showing master chief alive on the ship.
just in case u were confused,
September 29th, 2007 at 3:16 am
No you guys got it all wrong, The Chief dies because that part after the burial of all the dead soldiers, is a flashback after the MC blew up the Halo. Only the Arbitor lives cus the soldiers found him when they crashed. Both Cortana and MC is DEAD. SORRY! Just put all the pieces together cus theirs no way the Chief and Cortana is still floating in space since they are both on the same shit as the Arbitor. im crying right now cus i thought he was still alive but now hes not. Spread the word.
September 29th, 2007 at 2:21 pm
Child u fail at life. did you watch after that? after the credits rolled by? or ur just some noob that pushed start when the credis were rollin sayin thats it MC is dead. After the MF creds theres another clip were it shows the MC and Cortana in space on the other half of the ship floating. Then he gets into cryogenic pod and goes into stais. thats all unless u beat the game on legendary in which theres a bit more.
September 29th, 2007 at 3:56 pm
so master chief is dead or alive?
September 29th, 2007 at 4:37 pm
does anyone really know what happen? i do you people should pay a little more attention!!!
September 29th, 2007 at 6:23 pm
actually Master Chief does not die yeah i shows that he does beat it on legendary you we see what i mean.

September 30th, 2007 at 10:26 pm
Halo 3 wuz awesome!
I cant wait to find out if there will be a halo 4. since they let MC live, then there is a good chance that there will be a 4. But since the flood is gone and the war is over then there is an equaly good chance that there wont be a halo 4. Personally, I beleive that halo isnt just a game, its “the” game and a halo 4 would bring in more money than halo 3, which made about 200 million dollars or somthin, so it would be a good descision to make. Theres also the possibility that bungie said that halo 3 was the last so that no one would ask if there would be a halo 4.
so anyways i beleive that there is a rly good chance for a halo 4; and no im not talkin about halo wars.
October 1st, 2007 at 7:37 pm
U are all idiots[exept for the ones who wathed after the credits!!!! After the credits it shows him on the ship flying towards another planet with cortona. It left it wide open for another halo. So watch after the credits.
The ship that they were flying in must have got hace way through the portal before the portal collapesed and sent the arbitier on one half of the ship and left cortona and master cheif on the other side floating around in space. So they are alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 1st, 2007 at 7:48 pm
ok..folks..Let me post a little insight for a change For those of you wondering how arbitor didnt die..half the ship got seperated after they made it through the portal.key words.. after they made it through the portal. They think that chief is dead because only half the ship made it to earth. They dont know about the other half making it through. bungie is clearly telling us that there is going to be another game with master chief not called HALO. That story is over..no more civil war between the covenent..the flood is also gone..but what none of you are talking about is this….I dont think the gravemind dies yet. I think Him and Master Chief have some more story to tell because unless I didnt understand that little flying orb..he said Master Chief was a for runner. Then gravemind says during the cortana mission that “why have you come here the son of my enemy??”
the for runners made the halo rings to take out the Flood..put it together. The next game will not be called Halo 4..rather a whole new title with difrent characters and story..with cortana as his guide in that game. Maybe he gets found by his people at the end of the game or maybe even arbitor finds him. That would be a blockbuster game and story IMO.
October 2nd, 2007 at 2:31 pm
that absolutely made my day “THE SPARTAN 117 LIVES ON!”
October 5th, 2007 at 10:52 pm
He lived he lived he lived he lived
heeeee lived
sorry but i bought the game on wednesday and just finished it. I pressed start at the credits and couldn’t believe MC died, however thanks to the comments on here I went back and played the last bit again (gotta love the warthog run liked it on the first halo loved it this time) watched the credits all the way through like you said and HE LIVED fantastic. As to halo 4 we’ll just have to wait and see.
October 6th, 2007 at 5:33 pm
Ok. You called all of us idiots but….Wathed? Lol.
October 9th, 2007 at 6:22 am
iv just seen the gravesite video off the believe site and it still doesnt look good for mc, he lived through the game halo 3 but these videos are making out that hes dead. And gravesite is pretty much telling us hes dead.
October 9th, 2007 at 1:30 pm
I couldnt believe it!! i thought he was dead sooo much coz i skipped the credits,, ive lent the game to my mate so i need to get it back to finish the game again!! OMG cant wait,, so home boy ronny you think theres gunna be another game,, your theory works i spose,, then again i havent seen last video yet soooooo we will w8 nd see eh
October 10th, 2007 at 4:32 am
ther will be a halo 4
October 13th, 2007 at 11:33 am
just 1 QUESTION……WHO THE HELL SCRATCHED 117 ON THE MEMORIAL, ORIGINALLY I THOUGHT THAT WAS THE ‘TWIST’ AND THAT HE WAS ALIVE AND WROTE IT THERE TO LET U KNOW HES NOT DEAD BUT NOW I KNOW HES IN STASIS ONBOARD A SHIP IN SPACE… SO WHODUNNIT?
THE ARBITER?, THE ADMIRAL GUY?, WHO???????????????????

hes not dead, he goes to sleep in some pod thing after the credits if you clear the game on legendary and get every skull. nahh idk if you ned every skull but i got em.
October 18th, 2007 at 7:06 pm
he does not die, if u have the game try to finish it in legendary
wait till the credits endand u will see a special cutscene
October 20th, 2007 at 5:28 am
You don’t need to finish it on Legendary. Any difficulty will reveal the final scene.
The only Legendary-only content is a bonus scene of around 20 seconds showing the ship floating towards a planet, presumably Onyx.
October 29th, 2007 at 8:30 pm
ok this is more than stupid IF MC dies the future games are not going to be the same and if he dies my heart will be breaking in small pieces and I guess cortana too, because is the best hero of ever EVEER ever ever ever I played halo since I was 10 years now I’m 14 and i still love him.
and I just want to see his face I want to know if he is handsome hahaha

Masterchief does not die he lives if you go through the credits and I think the IWHBD skull has to be turned on because it unlocks hidden dialogue. He’s just floating around in space and there some scary music and a big flash goes by. I think that means their might be another

September 7th, 2008 at 9:15 pm
he is not dead. you need to watch the end of the credits. he is in space with cortana in the ship he escaped in. its all broken up and he tells her to wake him when he is needed. kinda funny cause ai just finished the game and wondered if he was really dead. then i stumbled onto this site. and about to give what I thing. I still didn’t think he was dead but I thought he went back into cryogenics, and kept secret until the halo craze is just about over. Then bungie will bring him back for new adventures. halo was just to popular to kill off master chief.
so I really wasn’t that far off.
