Blargh!

During the 22nd century a rampant AI named Traxus devastated the entire Martian grid, causing them to shut completely - and the implications lasted another decade or so.

So why in Hell would somebody name their company (see Halo 3, Reach) after such a psycho? "Hey, remember that computer that went bat-dung crazy and pretty much destroyed the technology of an entire civilization? Well, I'm gunna name ma company after such! The investors will REALLY dig that, especially those who live on Mars."

That's like naming your company 'Hitler, Inc.' during the year 2400. He may be long-gone, but the pain still remains.

Good job, Bungie!

Yes, I AM just that awesome.

Marathon and Halo aren't the same universe. The Traxus name was a reference.

....spongy, bungie, who cares? I got mine!

It'd be more like someone naming their company "Bowser Inc."

Good job jbh0220!

Looks like we have a bunch of hum-drum realists in the forum! Everything has to be super-serious.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Yeah, not the same universes.

Your question sounded pretty serious.

Which is obviously why I compared a fictional computer AI from the future with Hitler.

Obviously.

You shouldn't ask yourself such worthless questions. Aim higher. Try this: why am I here? Why do I exist, and what is my purpose in this universe?

(Answers: 'Cause you are. 'Cause you do. 'Cause I got a shotgun, and you ain't got one.)

When the heck did they say an AI caused problems on Mars in the halo universe?

Rain, and Jazz.
Halo: Tactical

I'm either a fool or an inteligent man, depending on how sleepy or angry I am.

I originaly made an account on 07.27.2007 but I wanted to link my GT and made this account. Don't forget your passwords!

As has been said before it is not the same universe. It is a refrence, little more.

Though where did you see it? It's familiar, but I recall it in Halo 2 and not Halo 3 and Halo: Reach.

The warehouse you go through? It's a traxus one. The civilians in halo 3 are the workers there.
