Subject: reference in halo ce

I was just watchin Alien, ya now with sigourney weaver, and bout half way through it i realized that it was referenced in halo. Dont want to sound stupid if others have foubd this out, but you know on the pillar of autumn, 1st level, when right before u enter the bridge there is a like crew news and such billboard of micilaneous stuff one of the articles being something about a lost cat that answered to Jonesy, well in Alien there just happens to be a cat named Jonesy that is basically a pet on the cargo ship. well thats it.

Does anyone even read these?

Lol, theres an Alien on the Pillar of Automn. RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!

But that's a nice find.

I never knew the cat had a name. Likely old, but good find!

Didn't Alien 1 come out before Halo 1?

Maybe your egg is reversed.


Edit: Yeah, all the alien movies except the Alien Vs. Predator movies came out before Halo 1. So Halo was honoring Alien it looks liek.

THANK GOD!! There are so many references to the Alien series in Halo it's not funny.

First of all, the black guy in Aliens? He IS Seargent Johnson. He actually says 'We're not getting paid by the hour!' and 'You've always got a bad feeling' when they were about to get pounced on by the Aliens.
Second, the dropships in Aliens? Don't make me laugh. I mean Come on! What does that remind you of?
Still, I love both series.

Yes, the egg has indeed been found before. And Bungie employees have acknowledged that the Alien movies contributed to the "feel" of the game in some aspects.
