Subject: ANABJP???

Spread the love...

Looking through my old stuff, I found this message on the back of a "Halo: The Movies" D.V.D. (got it in my Swag Bag)...

You'll see that the message is signed "ANABJP". What could this mean? I think we've waited long enough, an employee must tell us!

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

True. I just hope some Employee pops up in this thread and tells us what it is so we can solve this old mystery.

I found that acronym quite interesting myself. Hopefully an employee will tell you what it means.

Apparently it's on every Bungie release (games, soundtrack, etc.). It also apparently hasn't been deciphered yet.

That actually makes perfect sense.

I wonder if the Halo Reach soundtrack acronym has anything to do with Destiny.

Yes, each Bungie game/soundtrack has one.

The really old ones have only be found out because employees confirmed them.

I found this out, too. If you type in that acronym into Google, there are only 3-4 topics on it. Quite interesting.

[*Please note that anything in my posts is likely to be filled with sarcasm, and should be taken with a pinch of salt. I tend to help people, usually*]

I have the same DVD (still in its plastic wrapping).

I'm a big fan of trying to figure out these things, so I definitely wondered about that acronym as well. I think I actually asked Marty if he knew, but he didn't recall.

It's either an internal joke (which seems likely as the DVDs were originally distributed internally and to friends of Bungie) or it's a quote that was distributed publicly around development or release. Or it's just gibberish.

We may never know.

My best guess is something like:

"Acronyms? Now All Brian Jarrard's Priority"

Since he's been there since 2002-ish.

That's awesome! I've never met someone else with the DVD. And yeah, you're probably right. It's most likely an inside-joke at Bungie. It would still be cool to find out what it meant though.

It sounds familiar. It has appeared before. Somewhere in halo.
