In the levels [[The Armory]] and [[Cairo Station]] in [[Halo 2|''Halo 2'']], the player can find a '''hidden message''' Easter egg. The easter egg can also be found on the DLC map [[Elongation]], which utilises several assets from Cairo Station.


On almost every control panel in the [[Armory A-01|armory]] as well as multiple control panels throughout the rest of Cairo Station there is a screen with the message:
In the level the [[The Armory (Level)|Armory]] in [[Halo 2|''Halo 2'']], the player can find many '''hidden messages'''.

*On almost every control panel in the armory, there is at least one screen with the message:

"Rev. Pain" is the player name for one of Halo's creators from [[Bungie]]. The "Wu" may refer to Louis Wu, the alias of [[Claude Errera]], the admin of [[halo.bungie.org]]. Alternatively, "Wu" may be a reference to [[Michael Wu]], a senior employee at [[Bungie]] who worked as a single-player environment artist for ''Halo 2''; he may have been personally responsible for the Easter egg and included his own name.<ref>[[Halo 2 credits]]</ref>
*"Rev. Pain" is the player name for one of Halo's creators from Bungie studios.
*The "Wu" may refer to Louis Wu, the alias of the admin of [[halo.bungie.org]] or also the protagonist in the science fiction story "Ringworld" by Larry Niven, which shares many of Halo's themes.
*On the Control Panel in the corner of the room, behind the armor plates, there are two lines of ten blinking lamps. Over and between them is some really small text. On the top of the first line, the message says "FUSION GRID STATUS", and on top of the second line it says "BLINKING LIGHT SIMULATOR".
*If you look at the different boxes you can find some interesting items, like Marine Boots, a mobile turret of similar design to the one Sgt. Johnson carries at the start of [[Cairo Station (Level)| Cairo Station]] (before the "Home Field Advantage" part), and even some meals.


The Easter Egg does not appear in the ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'' remastered graphics mode.
