Of the Fathers of the Fallen. Believe in 117

I bought Halo 3 today! And after school, i played it quickly, ended it quickly. The story was astouding as usual, though i hoped that the rumours of Master Chief, aka Spartan 117, aka John 117, aka John, aka ‘The Demon’, would die would be false…. well, there is no confirmation of his death, but the overall assumption is that he did. The arbitor and the elites are still alive and kicking by the end. Well, everything for them seems to be working out fine. At the memorial, there are pictures of the fallen, including johnson (at least he died with dignity and blew that piece of tin can a new one, you fought well, soldier.) and Miranda Keyes (is it in the family line to just die? Her death was… slightly silly. But she was a brave and smart commander. Rest well) and Master Chief has no picture, so someone just scratched ‘117′ onto the memorial…. makes you wonder, huh?

Anyway, gravemind is toast, and so everyone is happy. The prophets are dead, the flood are most likely wiped out, and everything is back to normal… Since the flood are gone (they never actually said that, but since gravemind is dead, we assume they are now back to stupid slugs without a brain) the shelter that was locked down, trapping the other Spartans and the good old Doctor (from the novel, ‘Ghosts of Onyx’) would be released, and find that the war is over? I think not… they never said anything about what happens to the rest of the covenent. Sure, the prophets are dead, but who knows whether the brutes are all dead? What would happen if there was a (though extremely unlikely to happen, given their stupidity) grunt revolution? Well, since the series is over, it is now up to the fan-fic writers to get new ideas flowing. I would like to think that Master Chief isn’t dead yet. Maybe resting in some old cottage somewhere…. like real.

Ben didn’t believe i could finish the game in one day, i did. I also bought a new guilty gear game, and the last volume of .hack//G.U in english.  I thought it would take a longer time to get that out, but nevermind.

I found out that all of the people in my jap culture group are all of the same age as me… cool.

I’m going t have steamboat on thurs to celebrate the mooncake festival. A bit late, but still nice. I invited all of the singaporeans to come over, but i’m not too sure on the steamboat, since oriental is still closed, i don’t have much choice in ingredients.
