I actually got goosebumps at the end of that. Great job.

The poster with “Sheik” on it is not spelled wrong, as that is how the nickname was spelled for that particular person.

For the first part I get all the Marines on Ghosts to cover me. It’s a lot easier that way.

After looking through the analysis and comments, I didn’t notice this small fact. Forgive me if its been mentioned already, I haven’t seen it. If the beached ship at the scarab fight area is viewed head-on, it resembles the Master Chief’s helmet. Just a little fact my friend pointed out to me

ZayneHumphrey made an interesting point…

““Some of our families made it out by boat, the others..not so lucky”

It’s a nice way of clearing the reason why you only see Marines/Factory workers, though, could the “Explorer II”(the big boat you see in the Scarab Section) be one of the boats that “wasn’t so lucky” in rescuing the families?”

If you read the Halo Graphic Novel story about the citizens of New Mombasa, you see that they tried to escape the Covenant invasion by boats and through the tunnels the player had to traverse in the level Outskirts in Halo 2. Perhaps the Explorer II was one of the unlucky boats that didn’t escape the Covenant attack.

After the battle with the hunters, there is a sniper rifle off to the right in a room you didn’t mention.

You made a mistake with the skull. I know that is probably not something you care about when writing these articles, but if you destroy any of the tanks the skull vanishes. So you couldn’t wait until you cleared the place out. The Catch Skull is a gold skull so i guess that Bungie had to make it at least have some challenge because you get an achievement for it.

I feel obligated to point out that I’m almost absolutely certain that there’s Marine radio chatter about another fleet of Covenant ships slipping in system (Half-Jaw’s fleet). I think it’s somewhere close to the AA gun.

I’m going through these since they were recently published on bnet. Its amazing!

One thing though that I was absolutely shocked about! In the scarab encounter, if you use the right crane go up to the top and to the edge, there is a script which calls the Scarab over nearby giving you the perfect space to jump off the crane and straight into the Scarab. This makes the shoot the legs strategy redundant. You can jump straight on and destroy it and get out of there!

Its my personal favourite strategy for destroying the Scarab.

But of course, this was probably written a long time ago so you won’t care ;p
