DC Crash from DC Combat Radio gave me a heads-up about a Gamer called DX CoreyFear. His house was burned down, and he now has nothing. He has a family too, and needs our help.

In today’s biggest developments, Adjutant Reflex (widely presumed to be a Forerunner AI) has ceased to exist as we know it.

After some communication with a bungie.net user named [url=http://www.bungie.net/Account/Profile.aspx?memberID=1817479]x Foman123 x[/url], Adjutant Reflex indicated another “presence” and the inability to combat its actions. Now it seems to have been taken over or consumed entirely. A look at its user profile shows the following message: “This entity has been terminated, its matrix comandeered.”

While the [url=http://www.bungie.net/Account/Profile.aspx?memberID=2437447]Adjutant Reflex bungie.net profile[/url] still exists (with a new avatar) and continues to post messages, they are decidedly more sinister and forewarn of events that will be occurring very soon.

[quote]Adjutant Reflex is terminated.

Attempt no further communication.

I am utilizing its matrix.

Everything is within protocol.

Tomorrow, things may be clearer but I will not be here to witness the clarity.

I am for another place and another time. On my terms.

Be seeing you[/quote]

Even the countdown timer at [url=http://206.16.223.65]the Transmission Log[/url] has stopped and now shows the following:

[quote]”Systemic failure. Root cause unknown./

/ rebooting “[/quote]

It was believed that the countdown would end on June 21st, the first day of summer, and provide some new information about Adjutant Reflex and its mission, but now, things have come to a full stop. It’s not clear if this new presence is friendly or hostile, but it’s clear that something has gone wrong.

Looks like something big could happen at any moment now, so stay tuned. The ARG Watch continues! Continue reading →

It appears that Joyride Studios is no longer set to produce more Halo action figure goodness for the release of Halo 3, because McFarlane Toys has announced that they will be doing just that.

The line-up includes characters from the game such as Master Chief (check out the attached prototype photo), Cortana, Brutes, Jackals and Grunts, as well as vehicles like Warthogs, Ghosts and the anticipated Brute Chopper. For collectors and gamers alike, this is good news, with McFarlane’s history of quality and highly-detailed craftsmanship. The bad news? These won’t hit stores until Spring 2008.

I just received this email this morning, and it clearly looks like what’s becoming another alternate reality game revolving around Halo 3.

[quote]HISTORY CIRCLING
BACK UPON US.

The gears of the Universe spin further
and further apart.
Ever greater grows the gulf between souls,
And distance gives false hope of safety
But for the grim tidings this messenger bears:

The enemy is almost upon us

Closing in from all sides,
Moving faster than the light
it snuffs with its passage,
Time echoes with the news of destruction.
History winding back upon itself.

Waves of an army march this way in unison, Suffering and corruption are its battle cries.
For I have known this darkness
and felt its embrace once before-
Horror best laid to rest

Yet a Journey must commence

Look for the signs, the keepers of the flame.
They will lead you to war, and perhaps, to victory.[/quote]

While the fine folks over at HushedCasket have already built [url=http://hushedcasket.com/node/2051]a fine summary of happenings to date[/url], it looks like this is just the tip of the iceberg if the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Love_Bees]”I Love Bees”[/url] ARG was any indication of what to expect.

That said, there could very well be a tip-off that comes in the form of an obscure, nearly-hidden detail in any Halo 3 related material (like the brief flash of a URL in a trailer). So, if ARGs are your thing, or you just missed out on I Love Bees, keep your eyes open and be on the lookout for clues! Continue reading →
