Hugging Elite: Difference between revisions

It sounds trivial but I think it's relevant enough for the sake of the Easter egg. Though I wasn't sure about how to add it properly.

A [[Stealth Sangheili|Stealth]] [[Sangheili]] ([[Sangheili Zealot]] in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]'') is seen wrestling with [[Avery Junior Johnson]] over an [[MA5B Individual Combat Weapon System|assault rifle]]. They abruptly end their fight when they hear a rumble and realize the nearby {{UNSCship|Pillar of Autumn}} is beginning to explode. Johnson mutters ''"Oh shi..."'' and then spreads his arms and says ''"This is it, baby! Hold me."'' Before the ship's reactor detonates, the Sangheili obliges and hugs Johnson. In the original ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', just before the screen whites out, the Sangheili moves one of its hands down to grab Johnson's rear. However, in the ''Anniversary'' version of the scene, Johnson moves his hand down to grab the Sangheili's rear to which he reacts to with a shocked expression.

The cutscene, while only viewable on the Legendary difficulty setting, is not considered canon, since it was specifically made as fan-oriented humor. The [[Halo novels|novel]] ''[[Halo: First Strike]]'' reveals that Johnson and a few other survivors boarded a [[D77-TC Pelican]] just in time to escape the explosion, which makes this already dubious scene impossible.

In 2011, during an interview with Eurogamer, [[Bungie]] employee [[Eric Osborne]] jokingly explained that the character who died in the Easter egg was Sergeant Shwanson, Sergeant Johnson's doppelganger.<ref>[http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-08-04-bungie-bids-halo-farewell-interview?page=2 '''Eurogamer''': ''Bungie bids Halo farewell'']</ref>
