Today I just got the Halo 3 wallpaper with the Chief on it, and while staring at the hi-def-to-be goodness, I took notice of something.
If you look at his legs**, they are kinda weird compared to the rest of his armor; I figured it was sand, seeing how his environment is Africa-esque and all. But then I thought to myself why sand is sticking to his metal/alloy armor.
**specifically, his shins and feet
Living on the coast, I know the only way sand sticks to you is when it's wet. But why is his armor wet, especially in a barren place like the trailer presented?
One could always say it's just for effect, to add something to show he's in a desert. But when you look at the trailer, he walks right through a cloud of sand! Why isn't the rest of his armor sandy?
I'm probably (definitely) over-analyzing, but after reading some theories around the forums, even the most minute detail could be worth noting. Think I caught something notable?
