In OXM I read that Bungie put in easter eggs in the cut-scenes. You just have to move the joysticks round.

I also read that after unlocking all 30 audio diaries you unlock something that is "pure fan service".

There comes a time in every mans life... and that time is not now.

Well, i've found them all, but i haven't got any 'pure fan service'

Join SIP today! We smell good. Promise.


It's like a gigantic snowball, rolling down a mountain, eating kids on the way.

Maybe they meant they'll service your fan?

The Easter egg is in the ending cutscene, where, if you flick you'r controller's thumbstick to left, you see a monkey. And the "pure fan service" is probably the thing that when you have all audio logs, Superintendidents cameras start following you.

Join this awesome group!!!

That spilling blood idea has some truth. I have opened three previously locked doors by doing this and all have had a wepon in them. I plan on going through and looking in every nook and cranny of the place. I also have my own speculations. When I was in the stonehendge rooms, I spilled blood from every one of the corpses in the room and new glyphs appeared and glowed brighter than before. Is it that you have to spill blood from all of the corpses under the glyphs and then return to the empty hilt in the stonehendge room I do not know but i wouldn't put it past bungie. As some of the halo 3 skulls were almost unacessable it is plausable that this theory may hold sometruth based upon bungies love for increasingly hard tasks, as the sandbox skull is more proof.
Another speculation is the god sameritan achievement, the engineers are a peacefull race by default. Maybe you have to go through the game not killing one and then return to the stonehendge room with the hilt.
Again back to the dificulty. Just as how you could only access the skulls on normal maybe you have to be on a certain difficulty level to achieve the sword unlock action.
And now to the audio log part the story tells of a hong woman who with the help of a man travels through the city trying to escape. The officer that kils them is the offier that leads you to the thirtyith audio log. This is proof by him having "unfinnished business" in the room with the last log. If you lok in the corner you will see the young woman from the logs. Is it posible that the si wanted you to fnd this woman before she died and then find the sword? These are several of my theorys. I have yet to find a way to save the girl but. Will keep trying.

maybe you have to spill blood and then burn something. What buildings have you been able to go in that were't accessible?

I doubt it. The last time I saw fire and an esword together was on h3 campaign when I flamed a flood.

Congratulations, you just found the Plain Circle glyph in D08's bottom-right corner!
We all know about it.

I didn't intend to hurt your feelings. I just wanted to let you know it wasn't a breakthrough.

Happy face for you.

havn't taken the time to read all the posts but take out the '_brute' part on the plasma rifle and you get a blue one. Again, not in game if I'm correct but there's a gif for it.

Hey off topic here but, ODST is the first Halo game I've got and I want to know how I can get new armor for my guy on the bonus disc. I'd love to help out and I'll see how I can help out with this weird stuff. Please someone tell me how I can get new armor and like I said ODST is the only Halo game I have.

  • 12.30.2009 1:33 PM PDT


Ooh, I love those people, the ones who decide to throw everything and the kitchen sink at you, as if an M16 does anything to a T-90. Oh, MLG player with noobtube instead? Congrats! You blew off one of my ablative plates!

Gun, meet Bad Guy.
Bad Guy, this is Gun.
