Not sure how many people here have played the Xbox version of Halo 2, but has anyone else noticed the missing pieces of one of the Arbiter's cutscenes?

In the Xbox version, right before you start the "Sacred Icon" mission, Arbiter goes into the Prophets' private chambers, but in addition to be told about the Sacred Icon (which YES is in the PC version), he is also given a brief history about the struggle between Elites and Prophets and how far they've come. In fact, there were even visual picture scrolls on the wall depicting the timeline. Did anyone else notice that this was missing from the PC version? And if so, was it intentional?

Frog Blast the Vent Core!

Uh, wasn't that a deleted scene, shown on the collector's edition?

I don't believe so...

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

Probably deleted to leave out the part about the Drinnol.

Were there Drinols in there? I don't remember. I'm replaying H2 on Legendary right now and I'm still on Cairo Station :-P

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

Sorry Tyrant, I don't remember those scenes from the Xbox version...

The scene is from the legendary disk. So yes, it was deleted.

It wasn't even a cutscene in the first place. It's all in game and you can walk around and check the stuff out (think Half-Life 2)
