Pretty sure Kurt, Mendez and an AI, along with UNSC trainers, raised them their whole early life. Send me to Britain now (or whatever country), and I won't develop an accent like Jorge for the rest of my life.

It's the same exact thing as the ODST live-action ad. For "entertainment purposes", they had an ODST training program in Hungarian, even though the official language of the UNSC is english. No matter what country or planet it's on, the official language should be used in all official capacities. To make it more 'epic', they took away from the character of the franchise to appeal to mainstream.

I've no problem with either thing. What really annoys me is the fact that they pronounce Jorge's name as George. They should have either named him George from the beginning or make an effort to pronounce the name properly.

I'm holding out for a trailer sized impact crater later today.

Ignoring the use of "about a day" rather than "today" or "tomorrow" of course.

I've been saying this on b-net... I think most people there aren't familiar with how the name pronounced "HOR-HAY" is spelled...

Probably not much news then to begin with.
Full MP reveals are usually web/mag exclusives. I'm sure whatever news you were expecting was a little over blown. Probably more of a little bomb.

Scale in the Haloverse is interesting. I'd take "small" over nothing.

This sounds like calm reasoning... How dare you not hop aboard the Bungie hype train.

Just read up on the Valve/Portal ARG thang going down. I'm really looking forward to whatever Bungie has in store for Reach on the ARG front. I'm expecting nothing, but hoping for something. IRIS made Summer 07' really interesting since I didn't pay much attention to ILoveBeez. Maybe 343 and Bungie will collaborate on some form of Alternate reality game involving the planet Reach and it's inhabitants.

What was really intriguing about the Portal ARG is that it starts in-game. I think it'd be interesting if a possible Reach ARG was through Hablo Waypoint. Maybe just some extra strings of words hidden around the UI. That'd promote use of Waypoint, if nothing else.

And in the Reach trailer, he was called Jorge (JOR-GE not HOR-HAY). It's kinda a moot point, IMO.

EDIT: BREAKING NEWS! BUNGIE ENDORSES MATRICIDE!

Only if you don't like the AR or Laser, you think the Halo 2 BR was the way all weapons should be, and you make fun of Shishka for little to no reason.

And make a picture story...

Remember picture stories? Those literally kept me coming back to the old Halo 3 thread.

Good times

I've got well over 1,000 Halo 3 pics on my PC, nearly all from those stories. :lol

They shall return for Reach. Even with saved films, there's something fantastic about a good pictoral blow by blow.
