Smart idea, really - make it understandable for the 10 year olds (HEY GAIZ IS WE GONNA BLOW UP TEH ALIENS NOW???!!!111one1) but rich for those who won't be satisfied until we know Chief's great-great-great grandfather's middle name. And dear God, Vociferous, I shiver when I think of how much time and effort even one of these posts takes...

They seemed to be to well prepared for his return, everything ready to fire, ships in the correct formation, another AI capable of destroying Medicant. It seems that the best way to destroy your enemy is to lure them out into the open where you are in control and they are prone to error. Since medicant was blind with rage he was too focused on the destruction of his enemys and assimilation of their ships to just downright destroy them.

I skipped reading the terminals but did them for the achievement because the terminals were so long and it wasn't really handy reading it like that. more cinematics explaining it would have helped but I guess Bungie or MS wanted the story to be understandable to a 12 year old or some casual player. Too bad because a story so grand that could have been explained through the game and made it so much more was left only to the fans who dug deeper, reading the fiction and books. Thumbs up to article. I’m a fan of the fiction and this helped me appreciate it more thanks.
