Ok, so here is the thing. I checked up another forum thread, and they said that the dudes name is "Adrian Mark Perez". Not too sure about it, I checked his facebook page and found out that one of his friends name is William O'Brien, and he works at Bungie. So there we go, the "M" in the tree is for Mark, but what about the L? This has been both mentioned here and at the previously mentioned thread; His wifes name is Lauren, hence the "L" in the tree. Now, it seems abit to easy, but there you go, another date to check out.


Very nice! Did you see the discussion over at jumprs? I've been posting there too.
I'll tell them about it. If this is correct, we may have a date to work with.

That is exactly where I saw it. I checked Mark's FB friends, and he has a friend named "Lauren". Not quite sure if it is his wife, since there isnt any particular information regarding towards the matter, but it might very well be his wife. If we could try this date with a some combinations of things, we might find something. Still, if he left such a big easter egg out there, I don't think that it will end here. There might be more to it.

And as for this new easter egg, perhaps it has something to do with this video? I found this video awhile ago but have never been able to reproduce that glitch, if it is a glitch at all. It seems the glitch happened during or right after the loading screen and spawned you in some kind of secret room that I've never see before anywhere in Halo 3.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btkSzWFCLlw

I've spent years finding glitches and easter eggs in Halo 3 with my dedicated glitching clan, posting them to my youtube channel, but this new easter egg is definitely a new challenge for all of us.

Well, when asked if the easter egg would be in Matchmaking or Campaign, he said that we'd be surprised. That glitch happened after exiting the theater lobby... So it could very possibly something similar to that.


I came very close to reproducing that glitch. Though my method is not the same as the one that guy did in the video. As the game is starting up, rapidly tap A until you get to the main menu. If you were fast enough, you will be able to go into the Start New Game option which will begin to load the campaign with the campaign loading screen. It will be a super slow load like in that video. However in my case, I didn't spawn in some random room, I was on a black screen for a bit and the mission finally started. I'll keep investigating though.

If you want to join in on the most fascinating and beneficial group on Bungie.Net, come and join Black Water Ops, Most active group on B.Net (FACT)

Ill throw in a couple of cents in there right now to spark ideas..

about the date it happens on --> it could relate the something with his wife. I doubt his wife wouldn't about care about any other date other than certain ones that are relevant to her importance. Has this been somewhat mentioned? Because this just came off the top of my head when i read the op

Seems interesting. We should investigate the matter. Can someone ask him what was the date when the easter egg/glitch happened?

The easter egg mentioned in the OP was that, if you were playing H3 on 14/09/2010, the clouds on Valhalla formed an image of Bungie laughing at people for buying Reach.

Looks like we're going to have to somehow find out the anniversary of Adrian Perez and his wife. That'd probably be the day it's on, and then we'd have to figure out the activation of it..

Why don't we make a list of all known glitches for each map and level so nobody will repeat known glitches?

Why are you talking about glitches? We are looking for a hidden Easter egg not a game bug/glitch.

The posts above made me think of that when typing, but still, an all encompassing list of easter eggs and glitches would be helpful.

Only happens a certain day, showing his wife that certain Easter egg was a proud moment... an anniversary?

Whoever made that video isn't replying to Youtube comments anymore. We may be on our own here.

What if they meant the screen that comes up when you turn on the game, before you even get to the main menu?

I'm guessing it must be a very subtle easter egg. A huge easter egg would be easily noticeable much like how the IWHBYD Skull was discovered very quickly.

It must be pretty damn hidden after all these years and nobody finding it.
Or Bungie is just trolling the -blam!- out of us...

That was due to hackers. If they hadn't of done that then the skull would've been hard to find.

Yeah exactly, wouldn't hackers have been able to find this one as well if it was big enough?

There was an Easter egg that was discovered in Donkey Kong for the Atari 400. It was discovered 26 years after the release of the game.
It was found by someone going through 25,000 lines of assembly code.
It's possible people missed the coding for this Easter egg, especially if they don't know what they're looking for.

I love Halo 3 and enjoy making Halo Reach montage's. I find all of the vidmasters in halo 3 and odst entertaining. I have all the vidmasters but I will help anyone who needs them out of pure fun. If you need help message me over live. Be sure to check out the halo reach montage's on youtube channel name is Heatedbarrels.

No plutonium sounds more fun.

I <3 Halo:Reach - amazingly fun and best campaign + amazing Soundtrack
I <3 Halo 3:ODST - best soundtrack + Firefight + Coastal Highway and Mombassa Streets, amazingly unique campaign.
I <3 Halo 3 - best multiplayer levels + Forge + best Custom Games + soundtrack
I <3 Halo 2 - amazing huge fun campaign + soundtrack + Fun multiplayer
I <3 Halo: CE - started it all

To end the debate on the date of the Easter egg, im 99.999% sure it only needs to be the correct DAY and MONTH on the Xbox. This is basing off the fact that every date easter egg in Halo 3 has been only day and month, AND that to get a certain year, you'd need to disconnect yourself from Xbox LIVE, and I highly doubt thats what the developer who made the easter egg did to show his wife.

As for a hint, I was thinking=

Find the developers gamertag. Look at his campaign history. Most employees dont often play the campaign, considering they had already spent 3 years testing and playing it. Test any of the dates you see, and use the shortcut on the mainmenu to load the mission, to get the loading bar of the Halo ring being built.

Could've been played offline, but it's a good idea.
