I realized that there is a song in Halo NOT included on the Halo Original Soundtrack. There are two, really, one of them is The Lost Song, you can find it on Bungie's website, but the other, okay. It only appears once in the game, and it's a very short string section. It's in the Two Betrayals opening cutscene. Okay, so, Cortana blooms up from the control panel, Guilty falls to the ground, Cortana yells at the Chief, and it shows up right at this section of dialogue.

Chief: Hold on, he's a friend.
Cortana: Oh! I didn't realize! He's your pal is he, your chum? Do you have any idea what that bastard almost made you do?
Chief: Yes... Activate Halo's defenses and destroy the flood, which is why we brought the Index to the Control Room.
Cortana: You mean this?

Right in that section of dialogue, you hear a small string section. For all of us Halo fans, like myself, who are farmilliar with the soundtrack, you'll realize that that certain section is not included!

Neat. I just thought it was an ambient noise or short...thing.

It's an actual song snippet. I emailed Bungie earlier today, telling them about it, and I attached my own emulation of it. I redid it with a keyboard hooked to my computer. Garageband rules! PS, Great avatar, QuartzQuadrant.

ive experienced several things like this, like in Robocop, right after he gets out of his monitoring chair after the great cresendo theres a neat piece of music they cut and went back to the robocop theme. but they did include it in the end credits. and in Star Trek: The Doomsday Machine soundtrack, when the episode name appears theres a neat piece of music they cut from the soundtrack that pisses me off to no extent
