Hey guys, I didnt read all of the 50 or so some odd pages concerning the ilovebees thingy on the other thread but I think I found something that noone else has! If you slow down the Halo 2 trailer frame by frame(or for you people with really good eyes), then you notice something(if this has been discussed im sorry). Well basicaly there are shots of Halo 2 multiplayer in the trailer which all of you know. But what I didnt stop to think about was the NAMES of the people that the player kills. This is what I noticed;

1.) In the shot of the MC with a SMG in multiplayer shooting the elilte(with the ying yang on his shoulder), the elites(players) name is "[color=yellow]TRUTH[/color]."

2.) In the shot of the MC dual weilding a SMG and a Needler im multiplayer shooting another blue elite, the elites(players) name is "[color=yellow]REGRET i[/color]."

3.) You see the same shot of the elite(player) named "[color=yellow]REGRET i[/color]" a couple seconds later with the elite flailing his arms in the air as he as just died from the awesome force that is dual weilding(yeah).

4.) In the shot of the MC with a SMG in multiplayer shooting a Warthog that explodes and a blue elite comes flying out of it. Well....., that elites(players) name is "[color=yellow]PITTY[/color]."

Now I am not a theorist, I just find things. So this is where I leave it to you guys. WTF does this mean? Is this another Bungie Easter Egg? Or is it just a coincidence, and im a newb for missing a post about it before?

When Halo 2 was being played by fans at E3, those names (Regret, Truth, Pity) were given. They show up in the trailer because most of the trailer is multi-footage and single-player footage. I don't think there's much connection.

Well even if it was mentioned in the 52 page forum over there(and i didnt see it mentioned anywhere), it still deserves its own forum.

Nice find!! They are apparently going to be the names of the different Prophets in the game i.e. The Prophet of Truth (First Strike), The Prophet of Regret, The Prophet of Pity.

No, they're Prophet names. The Prophet of Truth is featured at the end of First Strike in the section at the very end called 'Harbinger'.

See. I told you guys that I wasnt a theriost. And since I posted this thread, there are like 3 good theorys about it. I never thought about this last one. I guess I am just stupid. <sobs, then realizes that he started the thread, yippie!>

Everyday that counts of the timer, with be interesting. Very interesting indeed. We need more information. An unknow messenger under the alias "Cortana" on the I Love Bees blog seems to be speaking of some unusual things. Check out it out and see what you can get from it.

In the Halo books, does August 24 have any significance or what happens on that date in one of the books.

No, February 3, 2525 is when the covenant first attacked. Also February 12, 2535 is when jericho Vll fell.

What happend in August you ask? Well this....

Aug 17, 2517: Dr. Catherine Halsey snags Jacob Keyes (Lieutenant Junior Grade) to head to Elysium City, Eridanus 2 (Eridanus Star System) to pick up John (Number 117), a 6-year-old at Elysium City Primary Education Facility No. 119

Aug 12, 2552: Master Chief debriefed by ONI at Camp Hath-blam!-, Reach - meets Keyes for the first time, sees Halsey again.

Aug 25, 2552: Pillar of Autumn chosen by Halsey and Cortana (with Keyes as Captain) to handle the MJOLNIR mission

Aug 27, 2552: Project MJOLNIR begins, with 25 Spartans

Aug 29, 2552: Spartan 117 gets a neural interface upgrade (to deal with Cortana) and new armor (with built-in Covenant shield technology)

Aug 30, 2552: Cortana gets revenge on Colonel Ackerson, part of ONI's Special Warfare branch, for attempting to eliminate Cortana and Master Chief - she gets him transferred to the front.

Aug 30, 2552: Reach Falls

Like I said before, im not good with theorys. So what do you guys(and gals) think?

Update: This is all from the HBO story pages.
