Subject: Halo CEA Linda spartan 058 easter egg?

all your base are belong to us!!

Just thought this was neat. In Halo:CEA on the pillar of autumn when you get to the part when "Sam" the technician helping get your systems online was killed (the little room he was in) you see two displays on the left wall. One for yourself, and another for Linda Spartan 058 from the book series being monitored while you where both in cryostorage. (edit: exit the room, and then take a sharp left and you will find the room that was in the first halo game back in the day, with blast doors down on the windows. this has Lindas screens as the main monitoring screens from this room.) Can anyone confirm this being in the first game?

Again just thought this was cool as I don't remember this from the original game back in the day lol.

Anyone find any other references to other Spartans from the books post 'em here ^_^

Walk softly, and carry a big midget.

No, it wasn't. There was another screen on the wall showing a Spartan but it never said "Linda" on it.

If you are right about this (I am going to check right now). You can have a two day Xbox-Live code.

We are all going to get banned aren't we?

The spartan was there before it just didn't have the tag "Linda" which wasn't needed back then since everybody knew it was Linda.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Everyone that read the book, which back then was not very many.

Still, despite being a small mention it's rather significant that this is in there as it will mark the first time that an EU Spartan such as Linda is mentioned by name in the core game rather than having such a character's presence implied with book knowledge being required beforehand.

If you read First Strike, you'd know that she was jettisoned before the Autumn landed.

  • 11.15.2011 5:32 PM PDT

It was in the first.
