I've just received my latest issue of OXM. It's fantastic. I thought Bungie's comments were interesting about Cortana's dialogue in the trailer. Note what they said:

Bungie - "the voice is certainly Cortana, but you're right to think that there's something amiss. When we last left her, she was in the embrace of the Gravemind - the hyper-intelligent evolution of the Flood. Where she is now is an important part of where we intend to journey with the final installment of the Halo trilogy."

Intriguing isn't it? What do you think this might lead to?

If you had a chance to read OXM's article, The Secrets of the Halo 3 Announcement Trailer, or the other Halo 3 articles in the August 2006 issue of OXM, please share what thoughts you have.

lol i think i read this i was going to get my haircut and it was going to be an hour before i oculd so i went to fred meyer and saw on the cover that it talked a lil about halo and so ya know how their inb pacages cuz theirs demos included and i was so anxious to see what it said that i ripped it open and read it it didnt say much more than i already knew but ya lol is this the magazine that had that demo with the pic of tomb raider lara croft on it? and on the cover of the magazine it was a picture of f.e.a.r?


Actually..no. That was the July issue I believe. This is the August issue. It has a sweet Halo 3 cover with MC. I've never seen this pic on the cover before, MC looks like he just barely escaped an exploding structure and he has the orginal assault rifle from Halo: Combat Evolved in his hand. It's an artists depiction not a screen-shot. It looks sweet though. You gotta see this issue bro...look for it.

It's great. I would posts scans but that's not allowed. :(
They talk about the new rifle sounding and looking IDENTICAL to the AR.
They also said the sound could be a place holder.

I really think they would notice if it didn't have automatic fire. So, IMO, It's safe to assume that new rifle is fully automacic, or atleast has that as a setting.

Don’t get mad if I flame you because you cannot spell, or because my three year old has better grammar and etiquette than you.

Where we intend to journey?

So maybe things do not end on earth. Maybe there is a lot more to the puzzle.

OK joke time,
so gravemind is the top flood, so maybe he has a vampire stigma, kill him and the rest of the flood die? HA!

...you know I hate to refer this to the Bible in stuff but God brought the Flood in the Bible right? So, what if the Gravemind is a diety of some sort. What if he makes a covenant with humans to defeat the Covenant with his Flood. Then, just as God remove the Flood when all the evil was destroyed, the Gravemind removes his Flood and lets humans live without having to activate the Halos and eradicate all life?

Ok, that's a bit far fetched....lol.
