I know halo gets a bad rap around here, but there are still a few members that enjoy the series for it's rich universe.

Anyway, I'm going to use this thread to post some cool stuff about Halo that noone knows.

The first one I learned from a Red vs Blue video, in which the RvB guys are testing out the new Mythic map "Assembly".
Well, it's known to everyone who has read the books or the manuals for the Halo series that Hunters, the bulking armor-clad enemies that cary fuel rod guns, are actually made up of lots of tiny worms. Well, it turns out that Scarab Tanks are actually controlled by the same worms. You can catch a glimpse of these when you board a scarab to destroy it in Halo 3.

I will continue to post other little tidbits. You can post some too.

NOTE: Do not post skulls, acheivements, etc. here. This thread is for elements of the storyline and universe of the game, not the gameplay.

Master Chief is not a robot.

That's quite a common misconception.

Lol. Indeed. He is a person with genetic, biological, and mechanical enhancements.

Oh, and he has brown hair and freckles.

If it's so shitty, then why has it gotten such high ratings from most notable critics?

Of course! That makes total sense! Because supporting a game on a microsoft console that wasn't even made by microsoft is a sure way to get it in good with microsoft! Screw giving a high rating to all the other games they release (Sorry Kakuto Chojin: Back Alley Brutal!), let's all just give good ratings to Halo!

Ask people at your school or workplace, it's disturbingly common.

That's why Jeremy hates it. Because other people like it.
