The best .wav is thanks_for_coming. It sets the game up perfectly. The opening cutscene in the game is the award ceremony for master chief.

It's been revealed in an Official Source, I believe. Should have been spoiler-boxed though.

I just can't believe how crafty the flea's trick was. Did anybody actually see that coming? Pretending to be Herzog was unbelievably sneaky. In retrospect it seems so obvious - only after the accident do we hear him using the flea's words. It all makes sense, and it was staring us in the face the whole time. We were all just so glad that Herzog was still alive we didn't even think to question it.

When I heard Melissa say the herzog call was faked, it clicked. Crafty little bastard.

I don't think we will see any of our charactes in Halo 2. I will be hated for saying this, but I kind of hope they don't. A slight mention, easter egg, or somethign of the sort will be cool, but thats it. I am reminded of fanfiction(which is essentially what ILB is, a fscking GOOD one). Some fanfictions are actually rather good, most are pretty bad. If the ILB characters show up in game, it would just kind of, spoil it. Like a bad fanfic of the Sonic the Hedgehog saturday morning cartoon, in which Robotnik's lackey interacts with Knuckles to steal super-anti-chaos-emerald, they simply don't belong in the same context. The juxtaposition introduces high amounts of suckiness.

(note to self: you're ranting and making obscure references to things most people haven't heard of, shut up)

When I was listening to the clips at work, I had a sense of loss, coupled with helplessness and a touch of denial. I connected to these characters, and hearing the air raid sirens, I realized that they weren't going to make it. Listening to durga in "be_with_me". She's acting like someone who knows like she is going to loose the one she loves, but just wants to hold on for just a little longer before its all over. It was fscking depressing. Unless this "chapter 13" on the DVD has something I REALLY need to hear, I'm not getting my hopes up.

Let's remember and love the characters for what they were, but let's face it: The're gone, and not comming back.

Alright, I've been morbid enough for one evening. Time to go cause trouble on IRC.

There is another wav file and an exact answer to who faked those Herzog conversations. It's not who you think!

"And here I practiced a deception on you. I am sorry for that: but war demands the efficient use of assets."

Did anyone else read this too fast and read "..efficient use of asshats." or am I the only one reading too much fark?
