The Terminals in ''Halo 3'' are in textual format, similar to the Terminals in ''Marathon''. They are a continuation of the ''[[Iris]]'' alternate reality game used as viral marketing for ''Halo 3''. They clarify a great deal of the Iris storyline by naming the authors of different messages and by explaining the circumstances of the original firing of the [[Halo Array]]. The Terminals follow the stories of the [[Librarian]] and the [[IsoDidact]], [[Forerunner]] logs of the [[Flood]] attacks, and [[Mendicant Bias]]'s progression into [[rampancy]]. | The Terminals in ''Halo 3'' are in textual format, similar to the Terminals in ''Marathon''.

The Terminals in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]'' feature fully-animated cutscenes instead of text like in ''Halo 3''. Most of them are logs narrated by [[343 Guilty Spark]] and expand on the history of [[Installation 04]]. They also have connections to the stories of ''[[The Forerunner Saga]]'' and ''[[Halo 4]]''.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcG-WpL-7lc '''YouTube''': ''Halo Anniversary Gamescom 2011 Interview '']</ref> | The Terminals in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]'' feature fully-animated cutscenes instead of text like in ''Halo 3''.

The Terminals return within ''Halo 4'', and they feature fully-animated cutscenes, like the terminals in Anniversary.<ref>[http://www.halodestiny.net/news-2073-des-terminaux-dans-halo-4.html '''Halo Destiny''' : ''Des terminaux dans Halo 4'']</ref> The terminals are presented as fragments of information from the [[Domain]], which recapitulate the events mentioned in ''The Forerunner Saga''. They follow the Librarian and the Didact from their time together during the [[human-Forerunner wars]] to the Didact's fall from grace and imprisonment inside the [[shield world]] [[Requiem]]. | The Terminals return within ''Halo 4'', and they feature fully-animated cutscenes, like the terminals in Anniversary.<ref>[http://www.halodestiny.net/news-2073-des-terminaux-dans-halo-4.html '''Halo Destiny''' : ''Des terminaux dans Halo 4'']</ref> The terminals are presented as fragments of information from the [[Domain]], which recapitulate the events mentioned in ''The Forerunner Saga''.
