IS THAT JOHNS FACE AT 37 SECONDS IN?!

No.
What makes you think not?

It could be anyone really.

However, I have a weird feeling it's whatever 343 was before he became a monitor.

Would be an interesting twist if the Installation Monitors were created from sentient minds.


Someone,i think Anton gave a quote from the Flood 2010 version that hints that Spark might have been a Forerunner before.

Well I think it's kind of ironic that it was the same face seen in the spartan models during the Halo 3 beta.

EDIT: It looks kinda close, at least.

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

It makes sense. Humanity's most powerful AI, Cortana, was created from the brain of an actual person. Perhaps the Forerunner did the same thing to create their AI.

Edit: If the stories in the terminals will be told through cool videos like that I'm pumped.

Been a Bungie fan since the days of Myth TFL.

can someone clarify what is said after "You must see the truth"? I can't figure it out after "learn"...

The thing is if 343 is declaring that John was at instillation 4 for a purpose why did 343 turn on him.

Already it sounds like a confliction of protocol.

Clearly Guilty Spark was rampant.

Yeah, he seemed rampant in the vid. Overall the terminals seem very very interesting, filling in and adding interesting info of the universe back in the forerunner years (when guilty spark was just rising and there were other oracles)

We all knew Halo was going to end up not being just a weapon. Seriously, absolutely nothing (Books, Games, Vids) is about Halo except Halo 1, 2 and 3. It has to be linked with everything else, like what was said at CC2011.

I feel sorry for Spark when 04 got destroyed,imagine if your Home would get blowed up ,not one time but two times.

I can understand why he killed Johnson,not because he was rampant but Cryptum explains it well.

Already it sounds like a confliction of protocol.
1. Bungie didn't have a wider scope of vision for the universe when making Halo 1. Just cool aliens and some sort of ancient wonder about a long-extinct race.
2. It was never explicitly explained how they knew to jump from Reach to Halo, however the coordinates Cortana gained from the artifacts as well as the data obtained from Halsey's Forerunner-study lab could have provided precisely that.
3. 343i might just be coming up with new story and writing for the sake of coming up with their own version of the entire Halo universe's events which I can already see being much different from Bungie's (Bungie made it all about Chief/Cortana, 343i seem to be making it all about Chief/Forerunner).
4. 343 GS turned on the Chief because decided to not cooperate. I see this terminal being somewhere early on in the game. If you think of the story canonically, you can see that the Chief has no prior knowledge of 343 until he sees him in the swamp, but with these terminals he'll have some extra knowledge about the history of the Forerunners as well as their purpose. I just hope they keep the dialogue intact, as the Chief isn't supposed to know that the Halo ring kills everything other than the Flood until Cortana explains that to him. So if 343 GS in a terminal on The Silent Cartographer is all like "So herp de derp the ring kills everything in the univars to kill dah flud" then when it gets to the Chief almost activating the ring, that whole cutscene will make zero sense.

Thats a very interesting theory, i can tell that the terminal is early on too, Im just glad that since 343 took the story (new story) their way, that it still has chief lol. It will be interetsing if the terminals show the relationships between the forerunners and chief

Imagine if they had the visual and audio terminals in Halo: 3. The battle between Medicant and Offensive would be just pure "mind-blown"-ness.

Yeah, i was thinking the same, i want to see alot of oracle scenes and possibly forerunner-flood war scenes would be cool
