My theory is that the forerunners accidentally created the flood. Afterwards they knew the firing of the halos was desperate one time thing. A few specimens were most likely kept alive so that they could study them and ultimately find find a way to kill them that didn't involve wiping out all live i...

Here's an interesting biblical connection. The Ark protected Noah and company from the Flood. It was God who actually shut the door locking them in. In the halo comic the Forerunners were called Gods by the locals. When the flood was over and the Ark came to rest (theoretically on Mt Ararat in Turke...

To play devil's advocate (not that I actually believe this) there is a none zero chance that there is a puzzle to be solved and no one has solved it yet. Some one at bungie could be utterly brilliant and we're all missing it.

What ever is on that slid is not strep bacteria. So that name could possible be an error by the puppet masters...or a clue indicating mutation. It's hard to tell this early.

*ahem* Girls read Heinlein too (unless that was a gender neutral 'he', in which case nevermind)

Anyways...since the PDF says lunar cycle, when is the lunar cycle? Is new moon to new moon or full moon to full moon? the next full moon is June 30.

Grok means literally 'to drink' Figuratively it means to understand something on such on intuitive level that you have become one with it. It's from the Heinlein novel 'Stranger in a Strange Land' In that book it is a Martian phrase.

As much as i favor the time travel theories, I feel compelled to offer an alternative one. It is possible that we are over thinking the whole issue and GS is not a totally together AI. Rather then being a sign of recognizing the chief all his comments could be a sign of AI old age dementia. I mean i...

All of the activities with the phones and such in ILB was after the game had been running for over a month. In this case patience is virtue. Part of the point is that we are supposed to learn more about the haloverse. At this stage we are gathering all the pieces, towards the end we'll have the fran...

The purpose of an ARG, beyond marketing, is to blur the lines between fiction and non-fiction. The present is clearly our present, with all that it entails, including knowledge of the halo games. If we were to completely disavow any knowledge of halo, we'd have to ignore the very forums it started o...

It's possible that there was a civil war before they fired the halos. I'm guessing that the forerunners had a fairly large population, even after being ravaged by flood, it's reasonable to think that there was a portion of the population that was not willing to lay down and die. The forerunners slau...
