The room is neither an [[Easter Egg]] or a [[glitch]]. The method of getting into the room, though, is obviously a glitch and not an Easter Egg. An Easter Egg is meant to be found by someone -- and clearly, this wasn't. This should thus be recategorized into [[:Category:Glitches]] and removed from [[:Category:Easter | The room is neither an [[Easter Egg]] or a [[glitch]].

:Yeah, but the room isn't exactly a glitch either. So it's neither. Maybe it is an Easter Egg and Bungie wanted you to find it. A lot of Easter Eggs in Halo 3 require glitches to reach them.

::As I said, the ''room'' isn't a glitch, but it's clearly not an easter egg. It doesn't follow the style, methods, or placements of other eggs. Eggs are typically messages, signs, images, and don't have a functional purpose. They tend to be somewhat hidden, but lack purpose -- as an example, M. Night Shyamalan's cameo in his movie [[Wikipedia:The Sixth Sense|The Sixth Sense]] wouldn't be an easter egg if his appearance had a functional purpose (e.x. playing an actual character). Similarly, this room is not an easter egg because it serves a purpose -- a location in a cutscene -- and it doesn't contain "eggy" things like jokes or hidden messages. | ::As I said, the ''room'' isn't a glitch, but it's clearly not an easter egg.

::Halopedia's own [[Easter egg]] article states that ''a virtual Easter egg is an intentional hidden message or feature in an object such as a movie, book, CD, DVD, computer program, or video game''; this room, while definitely intentional, is neither a hidden message nor a feature -- it is simply a hidden resource that was clearly never meant to be accessed. A message hidden outside of a level's boundaries is an easter egg; a room used in a cutscene, stashed within a cliff face that can barely be accessed with [[Pan Cam]]... is not. <span style="background:#AADDAA;display:inline-block;height:16px;padding-right:4px;line-height:1em;position:relative;top:-3px;-moz-border-radius:0 50% 50%"><b> | ::Halopedia's own [[Easter egg]] article states that ''a virtual Easter egg is an intentional hidden message or feature in an object such as a movie, book, CD, DVD, computer program, or video game''; this room, while definitely intentional, is neither a hidden message nor a feature -- it is simply a hidden resource that was clearly never meant to be accessed.

Well, there really isn't any better name. The title of the article describes enough. The article is literally about a secret room or hidden room on The Ark. There really isn't anything else you can name it too. [[User talk:General Heed|General Heed]] 22:52, 12 April 2009 (UTC) | Well, there really isn't any better name.
