.fortune

In the Xbox version of Halo: Combat Evolved, if you create a new profile (or edit an existing one) and call it ".fortune" (dot located with shift on), a random saying will appear on the screen. It is also a cheat that allows the player carry 3 weapons at once.

List of fortunes

• All your hard work will pay off.
• Everything lies in silence.
• If anything just cannot go wrong, it will anyway. (The very basic and first of "Murphy's Laws")
• Nature always sides with the hidden flaw. (Also a Murphy's Law)
• Never wear your best pants when fighting for freedom.
• Rest is good, but idleness is its brother.
• Smile when you're ready.
• You cannot fall off the floor. (Also a Murphy's Law)
• Your luck is about to change.
• I like beans.
• NOTE: THIS IS EXTREMELY RARE!
• Sorry, this fortune is temporarily out of order.

Also in Marathon's internet game lobby if .fortune is typed in fortunes like the ones on Halo will be shown. y
