The Monk Is Coming!!!
GT=L337Monk
Over the 4th of July weekend, I found myself with a large amount of driving time and precious little quality listening material so i burned a copy of the ILB audio to listen to again. While it's highly possible that all the references to Old/New Mombosa are entirely related to the release of Halo 2, I couldn't help but think how amazing Bungie would be if they tied the ILB story arc into this game (there have been a few other references to this in other threads mostly questioning whether ILB is cannon or not). Anyway, pertinent references could include:
1. Kevin Morales reference to a weapons stash in Old Mombasa when attempting to recruit Jan into the Spartan 1.1 team.
2. The transfer of Col. Herzogs' assistant to a New Mombosa diplomatic post just before Standish killed him.
3. Possible appearance of Durga since the ODST team won't have a dedicated AI tasked to them.
While it is pretty thin data to support a direct tie, I think if anyone has the dedication to spinning a good story and could pull this off, Bungie can...
