Sorry I din't post this sooner, but I recently became a B-net user and even more recently remembered about this. One day I was playing Halo 2, as usual (Back in 2005) and me and my friends got together for a zombie game on Backwash. The match was going great and In the 3rd round, I finnaly found out how to climb the tree and get on top of the strucure (please don't fix this glitch, It's fun, and fair in my opinion). While up there, Everyone exept for me became a zombie. I knew my teammates knew where I was, And they knew how to get up there. I walked along the beam to as close to the tower as possible, and jumped into the aclove to my left (facing the tower). As I was jumping to it, I saw a statue of a lion/bat/ram thing with tusks (I think It supposed to resemble a Chimera). Naturally, I assumed it was a glitch at first due to it's blockiness and lack of texture, but no doubt, It was a gargoyle. I died, because you can come within sword dashing distance by jumping though, but I revisited the map by myself and using my visor zoom, could get a better look at it from blue (I think it was blue, possibly red) teams hill, near the tree used to jump to the steel beam. After researching on the interenet, I Concluded it was something important I had just found since it wasn't listed on any game easter-egg or glitch sites. So here I am, 2 years later, with a 360 and Halo 3 beta, where I just now remembered due to a comment on which map was worse, Backwash or Midship (I think backwash was great, but I never really cared for midship).

Please bungie, let me know if I have discovered a super secret easter-egg, or just a glitch too useless to mention.

PS: I told and showed this to many of my friends when I first discovered it, but I assure you, I am (at least I'm pretty sure I am) the first one to find this.

The "gargoyle" is only "hidden" because Spartans are the natural predators of Gargoyles, they like to eat them with a side of farva beans.

Anyone who ever watched the CrocHunter would know that....
