[spec]Possible ILB reference in Halo 2 Remember when Kevin was recruiting Jan. He listed all the preperation he had made. One of the things he mentioned was a weapons cache on a roof in Old Mombasa. Well, feast your eyes on these:

I did not discover this, some guy named darabel gave credit to somebody else name Gex for them. They called them carney holes because a developer named Carney had claimed to have put weapons cashes in the test levels so that he could re-arm himself and rule on the other developers. Bungie hinted that some of these could still be in the final game. Personally, I think this is Kevin's stash.

Not to rain on your parade or anything, and I do refuse to look at those pics, but isn't Master Chief in NEW Mombasa?

One possible connection.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
When Regret's forces attack Earth in the beginning, Cortana says she learned that Regret didn't expect to find any humans left, thus the small attack force. Perhaps he expected the artifact to have Halo-ized everyone on the planet?

Now the question is did Regret know what the artifact's purpose is? Since Truth and likely Mercy have no clue what the Halo rings were meant for, maybe they were unaware what the artifact did too. Regret may have known, but when MC found him, he didn't feel like talking, and MC didn't feel like listening anyways. On the other hand, Regret was talking about activating the 2nd Halo and its cleansing flames. Maybe he was the one who knew the truth.

perhaps, in general, the covenant are blind, dumb masses, but I am inclined to think Regret knew what it was for... but Arbiter was shocked to find that his ideas were wrong, and worse, the demon knew more than he did

i know how you feel krystyn. I haven't finished campaign mode either. To make matters worse I don't know how much more of the game I have left. So I'm trying to justify just taking a peek at some of these spoilers. But....i've been strong and have held out.
I think I'm almost done, though. I just can't wait. Then I can actually talk to other people who've beaten the game about it.

After the MC and the Arbiter get snagged by that huge monster and he splits them up to find the index. I finished the MC half and I quit last night right at the start of the Arbiter's half.
