Halo 3 terminals examined

If you’ve played your way through Halo 3’s campaign, you’ve most likely come across these terminals at some point in the game. Once activated, they display a cryptic set of messages that, unless you’re paying attention, might seem like utter nonsense.

As it turns out, member TheRussianKoLob has found all of the terminals and nabbed the achievement for doing so, but he’s also gone a step further by transcribing all the messages and information from these terminals, in an effort to piece together the story behind them.

As I have been going through the game to find all the terminals I have found that accessing the terminals is not just an achievement. It gives you a saved record of transmissions between two people. The first is Didact (D: ) and the second is Librarian (L: ). The transmissions are Fragments of transmissions that they sent to each other.

Bungie and MS heading to Splitsville

As it was rumored earlier this week, Microsoft has now announced that it will be parting ways with Bungie, at least in terms of being a division of the corporation. Microsoft will still continue to publish and work with Bungie on other Halo-related projects.

“Our collaboration with Bungie has resulted in ‘Halo’ becoming an enduring mainstream hit,” said Shane Kim, corporate vice president of Microsoft Game Studios. “While we are supporting Bungie’s desire to return to its independent roots, we will continue to invest in our ‘Halo’ entertainment property with Bungie and other partners, such as Peter Jackson, on a new interactive series set in the ‘Halo’ universe. We look forward to great success with Bungie as our long-term relationship continues to evolve through ‘Halo’-related titles and new IP created by Bungie.”
