I was just wondering how they came about seeing as they are kinda a bit random. Is it a virus some Forerunner Umbrella corp made? Are they some creation of all that is evil? And that Gravemind fellow, where did he come from, a garden centre?

But as I know by viewing these forums constantly there are alot of you guys out there who can probably awnser my question, so ifd you can it would be a little helpful.

You should of made up your own instrument. You could have named it the PolarLighting -a-phone. People would buy it and they would all be like "Awh, He's so cool for inventing the PolarLighting-a-phone."

They came from your mother.

Sorry, had to get that one out. All joking aside, the origin of the Flood is still unknown and is probably to be revealed during Halo 3. What is known is that the Flood were encountered, and not created.

we do know that they were "encountered" in that research station above threshold

whether this " encounter " meant they were created or stumbled upon remains to be revealed

I've read the books i can tell you some of the backstory.

It basically started in After Colony 195.

In an attempt to counter the rebels, operation Meteor was launched.

Ships were disguised by the heat of entering earths atsmosphere.

Many have questioned the sincerity behind the media's speculation but none have deterred themselves from the logic that surrounds the open womb.

LoL, im not an anime junkie, but i do like to watch a series i can get into and its interesting

my fav anime is (not in particular order):

*cowboy bebop
*DBZ (of course)
*Gundam Wing (This was the best gundam series, IMO, the others werent as 'good')
*kenshin (if you wanna call that ' anime, ' im not sure)
*trigun (i never watched it when it first aired, but i got really into it a month ago)

yeah thats about it
anime is pretty cool, but some of it is............over the top ( FLCL was good but wierd.......i liked it still )

and to relate it to H3 maybe the flood came from an anime convention

You have good taste in anime. I'd say pretty much every anime you listed is decent.

I'm suprised you didn't say Neon Genesis Evangelion though.

It's the one everyones seen.

Gundam is very cool but i'm more of a Macross fan.
