Talk:Terminal (Halo 3): Difference between revisions

Line 331:

The terminal in the last level is on the in-complete halo, so it was just made, so how could there be a Terminal on it with recorded information? I suppose Mendicant Bias could have put the information there, but that's assuming that Halos are made with Terminals automatically.

:It is possible that the Terminal was filled with data immediately after its construction, or that an already-constructed Terminal was placed on Installation 04 II. [[Image:DavidJCobb_Emblem.svg|16px]] [[User:DavidJCobb|DavidJCobb ]] 03:05, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

== Trivia Error ==

There was a trivia fact (before I removed it) that said this:

*In the seventh Terminal, the Forerunners use the phrase "Great Journey". The Covenant use this term to refer to their quest to activate the Halo Array and become gods; they may have borrowed the term from the Terminal.

This has to be canonically incorrect as Terminal 7 was on Installation 04 (II), which didn't exist until the events of Halo 3. Now, the conversation/contents of the terminal may have been available to the Covenant elsewhere, or the term could have been used by other Forerunners and documented for the Covenant to find later, but the Covenant's usage of the term "Great Journey" could not have been from the seventh Terminal, since the Prophets spoke of the Great Journey long before the events of Halo: Combat Evolved.
