About Sal

I’ve got tons of experience with Halo gaming and collecting. I feel I have something to offer to the greater Halo fan community. Posts along the way will be about tips and tricks in the games as well as collecting and many more Halo related things. I’ll also repost interesting articles from the official site, Halowaypoint.com, or from fellow Halo fan sites. As I continue this blog, I hope to help gamers who want advice on the games, as well as any collectors with regards to where to find collectibles as well as deals, coupons and so on.

The Hidden Meaning in Halo

Posted on 11/06/2015 by Sal

I was contacting by one of the guys from the Youtube channel, Wisecrack, regarding their ‘hidden meaning’ in Halo. I took a look at the vid and though it’s at times a little odd or quirky, there are definitely some good points made.

Be forewarned, there is some cussing in the video. If you are under 18, get permission from your parents or guardians (no, not Halo 5 Guardians…LOL).

So, what did you think of the vid?? Reply below!

Okay, so, did you/will you do this legit, or will you take this short cut???

I haven’t tackled the campaign on Legendary yet. I do know that last fight is tough though having done it on Heroic.
