Halo 2 Spartans & Elites Have A Creepy Detail You Probably Never Noticed

Hidden in the 1st person arms of the multiplayer Spartans and Elites is a very odd and creepy detail that Bungie added which you normally would never be able to see. Let's take a look at what it is!



Stay tuned!

Just a quick clarification/correction, the Spartan 1st person arms actually aren't limited strictly to multiplayer. Master chief in campaign uses the same arms as multiplayer Spartans do. The elite arms are indeed multiplayer only though.

Looks like they might've intended to implement dismemberment, but cut it early on like some other things in Halo 2

Bungie: We're out of time, we need to launch the game!

Also Bungie: *Arm meat*

[Isgonesomewhere]

4:02 an inside joke lol, I guess it didn't meat their expectations and ended up being cut from the body of the project. Now it exists as a bonafide exhibition of bungie's ambitions.

[NotusDuckus]

I love how years latter somehow we will find some type of secret

[james_kimpel]

Are they the same limbs used by infected elites? because their arms can actually come off and you can see meat and such

[Kirbylight]

Seriously, how did we not know this for nearly 16 years?!?!

[orangeporridge]

17 years later we still finding new stuff dang

[ReganFreeman]

Cut content remnant? Some sort of severed limb mechanic?

[RonaldMcDonald]

Related fact: In Destiny they modeled the interior of the “Rat King” skull with sinuses and all even though you can never see it. Bungie’s attention to detail is absolutely world-class.

"between the hand and the arm"

Wrist. You're talking about a wrist.

probably flood related, but dismemberment would've been cool, like imagine cutting off a dude's arms in multiplayer with an energy sword or something

[trekker]

After all the Triangle City and Nick Robinson vids I've binged recently, I am convinced the only reasonable next step is to track down the texture artist responsible and have a 3 hour interview with him about it.

[primusvsunicron]

This probably why Bungie made the Energy Sword usable in Halo 2

[Banana-Boi]

The halo reach elites have the same thing in first person. Sometimes when you're glitching and look down you can see their intestines.

[rickyspanish]

Bungie: We didn't have time to add everything
Meanwhile Bungie:

[axel.]

There's evan a Marathon symbol in the spartan meat lol peak Bungie right there

[shadowmilk]

Knowing halo 2 they probably cut something such as dismemberment when shot by something like a sniper or something

[DoomieGruntVentures]

Looking back, I spent a bit of time by myself in some of the multiplayer maps, and recently, while doing the same thing (no life, I know), there was a certain creepiness to Halo 2's atmosphere in particular. The feeling does dissipate a little bit in the maps that have more dynamic things happening, like Terminal & Backwash, but still, the creepy feeling is difficult to shake even when watching Red vs Blue.

More secret stuff like this being discovered years later only makes things creepier.

Cool


Edit: Change my mind wtf bungie
