Now that is something that I hadn't thought about as much... It could explain why the video had such an 'old' version of chief's armor in it; as in 42 had already ok'd the video and that they didn't want any changes.

That -is- a possibility; like I said, I think the possibility is there, but 5gum also has some links and similarities to this; so I'm just saying that use caution don't be all like; YEP HALO ARG and then get all pissed the next day type thing.

I firmly believe in the possibility that's why I signed up..but I'm not convinced yet...


Stimulating your Senses is 5 gum's slogan, which would work in the context of the evaluation. But I just find it strange that they did this during Microsift's E3.

We'll have to see.


I think it's very likely that Mission Icefly is something Halo related, that quote in the OP just reaks of the type of stuff Adjutant Reflex posted and said toward the latter end of the IRIS viral campaign. Anyways, we'll see come tomorrow when Mission Icefly's page opens...18 hours and counting...


And the whole "protecting humanity" thing....

Because when I hear protecting humanity, I -blam!- ing think chewing gum.

"The object of war is not die for your counrty but to make the other bastard die for his."

Lols we're not gonna figure much more out right now...

I agree that it definitely -could- be connected to Halo 4.
An idea that I had is that 5gum is just trying to get there name out there by having it be used as a launching pad for the ARG, obviously that gets them in news when people start talking about it.

I'd expect that tomorrow we shall know more, but I agree a LOT of it seems to indicate MORE than just 5gum.

That said people did find the links to the websites in ads for 5gum, I went and read some articles, and that makes me think that it could be connected to 5gum more (or again just a launching point...we shall see)

(that said of the sites were talking about the re-activation of the ILB timer and talking about how it counts down to 5 years from now...but well it's been running...and it counts down to 571 years or so from now...so again be careful about your sources...)

Why in the pissing hell would 5gum be interested in a Human Preservation Project? Is a gum company the last hope in the face of Human extinction?


Yes?!?!?!?!

Again, a lot of things point to this not being just for 5gum. I expect that we will find that they are just riding the beginning for some promotional purposes...

But until tomorrow all's we can do is wait...

No he brings up a good point.

Halo 3 has hyper hyped and it failed when the game came out

you are completely oblivious to the fact that halo 3 was an amazing game, reach however was not you forget that halo has one of the most in depth stories ever created? I'll tell you whats over hyped! COD.

this ad has something interesting:
Destiny?

notice the bold letters in "Ever tried speed skating on dry ice?" It spells out "Destiny," and we all know that "Destiny" has been trademarked recently by Bungie. The shotcode leads to the http://testsubjectsneeded.com site. And people who registered with that site are now getting e-mails with this a message talking about being a part of a "destiny" and "taking human kind one step closer to an ultimate epiphany."

Maybe it's not for Halo 4 but maybe a hint towards all these recent trademarks made by Bungie? (Hopefully!)

"The object of war is not die for your counrty but to make the other bastard die for his."

One question that has been lingering in my mind just a little...are we a little far out to start a Halo 4 ARG? When did ILB start in comparison to Halo 2.
(On an unrelated note this one could end being called MIF which is just one letter mistake away ;) )

i agree, i think it's a little soon for a Halo 4 ARG. I'm just hoping the timing of this and Bungie Day is more than a coincidence.

Nice find...and again after looking at all of this...I'm still thinking that 4orty2wo may just be using 5gum to get the ARG started...idk we shall see

Like I said if you played the ARG for halo 3 you wouldn't be saying that, it was completely lackluster and the Campagin plot was too rushed and streamlined.

Where are you at? The countdown still says 14 hours for me...I expect that if I were to change the clock on my computer I could get that countdown to change...so I'm betting you're on the other side of the world ;)

That said, I think the timer is not that specific; the timer stopping won't do anything on the website; it will activate whatever is gonna happen at each city...which I would go to the Seattle one, but it's a good 6 hour drive away...but I'm wishing I was there...

Compared to Iris, Halo 3's plot was dull. Its a good thing I didn't hear of Iris until after H3 came out.

But I still don't get why you hate Halo 3. At least it got good in the last half and the gameplay was great.

  • 06.29.2011 9:55 PM PDT

considering your the one chatting bull-blam!- and not knowing much about halo i think you should ask yourself that question.
