Terminals and screen shots

Post by TheTyckoMan »

I tried to take screen shots of the text of the terminals, but when I activated it the theatre menu stopped working (so I think bungie didn't want people taking screens of it) Has anybody else tried this?

The terminals have some interesting stories in them, I think it'd be cool to go through and get all the text so you could read it all at once.

i dont see why bungie couldnt have added a rewind in campaign based on the checkpoints and basicly treat it as if you died when you want to rewind.

I can speed up and skip parts as well. I can also record clips and take screen shots. Oh and you can take pictures of them as well.

How... Every time I attempted to take pictures, everything became interactive. The Play and Stop Controls are/were disabled.

I adore INSANE and wish to have his/her kids if he/she is a girl. As for the Terminals..it seems like the game sort of removes you from the literal game and activates a separate mini game for a small period of time, then it just switches back to Halo when you finish.
