Blizzcut:
No having a Master Chief armor permutation is a horrible idea, just even the thought of it being ingame is very dissatisfying, And if it is true, then Lionhead would not be doing Halo any justice by tossing it in there.

But why would they do that?
I dont get why most people dont like this. It's an easter egg. You don't have to wear it or even find it. Why is everyone getting so worked up?
I personally think it's hillarious although I probably wouldn wear it. I hate Master Chief.

fel64:
Loinhead claim to have some kind of "image" related to some kind of "game" in which a so-called "hero" is portrayed in astronaut-like "armor", reminiscent of another prominent "Microsoft" game occasionally referred to as "Halo".

This "image" can be found here.

I have included a low-resolution "sample". I hear that a "larger" image may be found on that rockin' lionhead fansite known only as Loinhead.

Cool I surly hope you can be MasterChief then it would fit my Gamer tag and My hero would be the like really neet they might thank I am an alien. I love the thoughts of having that as my Armor. Plus it would make sense for them to put that as armor in Fable 2 cause MastherChief is like the Mario of microsoft.

If they try to implement a Halo armor like permutation im going to be writing Lionhead a very heart to heart email.

I'll be blunt, I think it is in fact, real... I believe it is probably part of the "extra content" then comes with the collectors edition... personally I dislike halo, but I dont mind this bieng in my game... it doesnt look *so* rediculous that it looks totally out of place, it is just green metal armor with a slightly odd helmet... I personally wont use it but if a friend of mine (though most friends of mine probably would just chuckle at its exsistence then promptly ignore said exsistence) was wearing it, I wouldnt care... I would just throw on the chicken suit.

1) Bungie made so much money of the halo franchise, they actually bought themselves out of microsoft. They are free to make games on any console they want now!

2) It looks real enough, and is quite possible.

a. DOA4 SPARTAN
b. HYABUSA ARMOUR in H3
c. Also during the making of Halo 2, one of their video documentaries showed one of the art directors at bungie playing Fable in the work place.

Needless to say, its very possible, and it might not be MS's doing, but a mutual agreement between Lionhead fanboys and Bungie fanboys. That also could very well mean that an upcomming BUNGIE title will have Fable reference in it

And I think its cool that they added it, whats the big f****ng deal? Its there for fun, its not like an armour you would get during a key turning point in the story! As far as Im concerned master chief can be there just as much as the frying pan, chick outfit, pimp hat, and the guns.

PS: It doesn't even look metalic or even futuristic, its just a green outfit that strangely resembles masterchief. Its not MC's head copied on or any gay crap like that, even the very first builds of the Master Chief long before Halo: CE came out didn't look that.

You also have the gloves and boots in there too. They're both pretty close to the design.

i didnt notice that until you mentioned it but besides the metal pads on the gloves and boots they look almost like regular boots

I'm pretty sure you'll live...

And Moon is right, you don't have to wear it nor buy it if it's actually in the game. I would love to hear the orgins on it though.
