No. Watch through the credits after beating the game on Expert or Legendary. He's on the ship, he hops into a cryogenic tube, tells Cortana to wake him when someone responds to the emergency signal beacon they sent out, and that's it. Another terrible Halo ending.

The Chief, Arbiter and Guilty Spark discover that the Ark is
creating a new ringworld to replace the one previously destroyed. The
Chief decides to activate only this new ring to eliminate the
local Flood while sparing the galaxy at large. Before he can activate
the ring, however, he needs an Activation Index. Knowing that Cortana
acquired a copy of one on the first Halo, he rescues the AI from High Charity and creates a chain reaction to destroy the infested city and severely damage the Gravemind.

Arriving on the new Halo, Cortana warns that the Gravemind is trying
to rebuild itself on the ring. The Chief, the Arbiter, and Johnson make
their way to the control room, where they will activate Halo's weapon.
Guilty Spark explains that because the ring is not yet complete, a
premature activation will destroy it and the Ark. When Johnson ignores
his warning, Guilty Spark kills him to protect "his" ring. The Chief
destroys Guilty Spark, activates the ring, and escapes the ring's blast
on a frigate, Forward Unto Dawn.

Only the front half of Forward Unto Dawn, carrying the
Arbiter, makes it through the portal. Believing the Chief and Cortana
to have perished, a memorial service is held for the fallen heroes of
the human and Covenant war. After the memorial service, the Arbiter
departs for his home planet, where the Elites are finally free of the
Prophets' hegemony. Meanwhile, the rear half of Forward Unto Dawn
floats in unknown space. Cortana drops a beacon, but realizes it may be
years before they are rescued. The Chief enters cryonic sleep, telling
Cortana to "wake me, when you need me." If the game is completed at the
highest difficulty level, the scene continues to show the piece of Forward Unto Dawn drifting towards a mysterious planet.

Shirley (<- Joke) there's some kind of spoiler for you in there, I would tell you yes or no but I don't play crappy Half-Life wannabes, or their sequels. However, no, he apparently doesn't die.

[Added] Oops, it appears I was typing long enough that Karuto beat me to answering.

thanks!

THANKS FOR RUINING IT FOR ME

then why did you read the thread?

You're not exactly missing out on a deep storyline here Jiffy. If you saw any of the pre-release ads, they made it clear that he "dies"

Kind of your own fault. Read the thread title, and your own logic should dictate whether or not the contents would ruin a key part of the story for you.

As BlckWyerve said, though -- you're not really missing anything. This should be nothing too surprising.

It was a fucking joke.

Edit: After playing the first one for about 20 minutes I decided to stay away from the series.

I hope they'll make a halo4

I kind of figured it out since Halo 1.
The storyline was very predictable.

Its ok though...

He'll respawn.

Halo is a bland, endlessly iterative cash cow and MS console vehicle which, along with Gears of War, semi annually bleeds an attention deficit teenaged market for a portion of their parents savings
Probably the most important action franchise in existance!

SCREW YOU!

Half-Life is better.

the halo series is ok
its just...a normal fps, the world is full of em and they are pretty much all mediocre

This ending was actually very good because Bungie can now branch out to any series of game they want. Think about it... where can they go? Pretty much anywhere. I know it could of been better but it was to secure the idea of another game. So Halo 4 will live! (that doesn't include expansions or spin off games like Halo Wars or Halo Recon)

The Halo episodic series might have something to do with the 'future' of the series. No sooner has Halo 3 been released, have four more Halo games been announced, and we already knew about Halo Wars...

Rumored to be in the making by Gearbox, if you haven't heard.

Who the fuck cares?

It's not like you'd miss it if it was some other guy in green armor.

DOOM GUY!!?
