Infection in Halo 3 isn't zombie killing; it's ethnic cleansing. Have you ever noticed that these "zombies" are just black Spartans?

And I realised that the ending to the level Cortana in which the Master Chief arrives at the crashed pelican to find the Arbiter (voiced by Keith David) weilding a flamethrower against the Flood appears to be a rather obvious nod to Keith David's character in the film who incinerates the Thing with a flamethrower in the kennels.

Mind = Blown. I'm actually rather annoyed at myself for taking three years to notice this.

Spartan C19
-Savior of the Universe

Cool. I think I'll youtube that.
The Achievement, "Came...from...behind!" was a line from StarWars.

Edit: Aw, wait...I kinda forgot how funky that was...poor doggies! Man, don't youtube it...sad face.
