Adjutant Reflex: Halo 3's new Alternate Reality Game? |
Listed in: Xbox 360 Tags: Bungie Studios, Rapture, YouTube
Ó
It appears that the folks at Bungie are doing something similar to the I Love Bees viral campaign at the moment, only this time it's supposedly for Halo 3. What's the viral campaign? A special user account on the Bungie.net forums that goes by the name of Adjutant Reflex is leaving messages that hint that something will happen on June 14 1AM PDT. What's curious about Adjutant Reflex's account is that unlike other people on the forum, who are classified as "member", Adjutant Reflex is classified as "CompoundIntelligence"
Rapture at The Hushed Casket has gathered several bits of info on the mysterious AdjutantReflex. First off, it was revealed that there was an Xbox Live profile for the account. That profile no longer exists. If you want to understand more on why we say "was", here's YouTube user triplestunt's videos:
Rapture also managed to gather some of Adjutant Reflexes' communications. Below are several examples.
Q: What will happen in 38 hours?
A: Unknown at this point. Events have yet to occur that will decide that. Events will occur soon.
Q: How do we trigger said events?
A: Events will trigger only through teamwork. Data mining is suggested.
Q: Can you give us some guidance?
A: Domain: www.Bungie.net// : Only together can you..........
"Simon78" and other halo fans are currently gathering as many communications with AdjutantReflex over at halowiki.net. The folks of UnFiction.com are also eagerly trying to solve the puzzle that is Adjutant Reflex. If you could recall, the Alternate Reality Gaming specialists of UnFiction.com made many contributions in solving a lot of the I Love Bees puzzles.
Well, it seems that we have a campaign on our hands. For what exactly? Much like the I Love Bees campaign, we'll have to play along to figure out, especially now that the Beta's over. As of this writing it's around a few more minutes until the big reveal. We'll update you as soon as we find out what it is.
Adjutant Reflex Compound Intelligence... ARC Intelligence? Hmmm....

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. "
I got this e-mail today and thought XBOX.co was hacked, then I thought to myself, XBOX...Halo 3...Bungie...ILoveBees...lol. Still an odd e-mail to get if you've never been a part of it.
