So, those who listened to the Bungie Podcast that launched the same week as E3, would know that in that podcast, we were introduced to a Firefight map called SC-140. It apparently has landing pads. Well, I may have found some concept art of this map or at least the section of the campaign the level is based off.
Here is that Concept Art. Bare with the size as I had to cut it out of the scan. This was found in December 2008's Game Informer Halo 3: ODST Blowout. Note the landing pads.
Now note that thing I circled. You may have to save that image and zoom in to see it properly. Its an insignia of something. If you were around when the achievements leaked, you would know that one of the Firefight point related achievements mentioned getting a certain amount of points in a particular map called Windward. This achievement had this very icon associated with it.
So, the actual name of SC-140 is Windward. Great huh?
Anyway, that's not all. This icon appears somewhere else as well. This screenshot is from the Gamespot E3 Stage Demo.
What I once thought to be nothing of importance, now seems to be even more important. Its pretty clear that this insignia is associated with some sort of organization. Moreover, it seems this organization is of great importance, having the authority to lockdown specific sectors of the city. I first thought it was ONI but this logo and this other logo are the only logos of ONI we know so far, and one of them is actually from Halo 3: ODST.
Meaning there is a third as of yet unknown organization at work in this city. Something definitely of great importance to the events of the game.
Speculation time!
