Subject: The Spectravision Incident.

Yes, there're too many numbers in my name.

I know this is a difficult question to ask, and I will perhaps be in a certain amount of trouble for even bringing up the former existence of this so call 'incident', but I am too curious to merely neglect what could be a remarkable account of some shocking occurrence.

While skimming the Bungie wikia, I came across the page for Martin O'Donnell. Naturally, I decided to take a look at the trivia, which most people would agree to be the primarily interesting aspect of any wikia.
And I happened to come upon this bullet-point, which was positioned at the bottom of the list.

Marty and Joseph Staten, on one of their many trips to LA for dialog recording, went to the theater to see 28 Days Later which inspired them later, while sharing a hotel room, to start discussing the idea of a Halo movie. However, the discussion quickly ended when the night was soured by something that shall forever be known as "The Spectravision Incident."

So immediately, I began to question what the Spectravision Incident may be. Does it have something to do with 28 Days Later? What could cause such an issue, especially one that was apparently important enough to be deemed an example of Marty's trivia?

Again, I'd like to apologize to any official Bungie staff, or other person's who may be aware of this incident and are too haunted to possibly recount it.

Somethings are better off; left unanswered.

It shouldn't matter that much, except for it merely being a secret and us being Bungie fans. I don't think you'll get an answer anyway, especially because they chose at some point in time to keep it secret.

My Googlefu only found: The Great (Hollywood) Journey, Part One, The Great Hollywood Journey: Part 3, but no part 2. Mayhaps the missing Part 2 holds the secrets we are so eager to learn.

EDIT: Forgot to mention Spectravideo

I came for Halo, but I heard the Tru7h, fought thru Carnage, and stayed for Bungie.

Thanks for the resources! Also, what exactly is Googlefu?

Hmm, perhaps we could use Bing to find out...

On topic, this is interesting. I hadn't heard about that before.

I suspect llamas are secretly wizards. I <3 poptarts n' milk. I like me. Grimick is defined as: a logical parodox, the act of funnaling a potato down your throat, and a deliciously flavored muffin (with pecons and blueberries). Norway is the Swedish word for 'moron'. My sister has cancer, so i get to use handicap parking and cut small children in line at Disneyland.

I have a feeling people are going to be attempting to access long hidden documents.

Will we regret what we uncover in this thread?

The truth never hurts, no matter what it is. Unless it's what we may uncover in this thread.

So, yes.

I won't be surprised if certain members go missing for no reason after reading this thread. Sounds interesting nonetheless.
