yes this does look like it worth investigating further.

I looked quickly for strings in the two "blue" ones, but I didn't see anything.. maybe someone can suggest something?

Those images need steg'ing, but I'm not the one to do it. (Wish I knew how and had the tools necessary on my work PC...)

I didn't find anything with Steg Spy. I'm not using StegDetect so someone might want to try with that. However, I am doubtful that IGN is in game.

these rectangles are red blue and green, if someone knows how to make them semi transparent maybe they can be layered on top of each other to reveal what is hidden

I think an overlay of red, blue and green would give us a rectangle of black.

I do like that idea, though, maybe someone with requisite photoshop skills could take a look at comparing just the rectangular bits side by side or layered over one another.

I don't think overlay will produce anything.The rectangles are all different sizes, though the two blues, and the red and green are similar in size. I tried overlaying the two blue rectangles, and nothing leaped out at me.

These definitely seem to be some kind of puzzle. I was playing with the levels in the images (there's a way to hide things that way) and couldn't find anything. I went to check the sizes of the rectangles, figuring maybe they'd be some kind of IP address or something to the actual heights/widths, but they're not drawn exact to the pixel. Only other thing I can think is to maybe cut each out and rearrange them on a larger canvas.

This picture from Bungie's website

Is the exact same picture that is on IGN's website except for the colored box

http://xbox360media.ign.com/xbox360/image/article/800/800896/halo-3-20070701092758950.jpg

Maybe we should do something with the one on bungies site

It's also VASTLY larger... so maybe there is a detail in the big version that is pointed at by the IGN highlighted version...

EDIT 1: I'll crop out the section highlighted in the smaller version from the bigger version (if that makes sense Razz

) and post it here....

EDIT 2:
