Nice post on our forums from eva05 concerning the parallels between the Culture novel "Consider Phlebas" by Iain M. Banks and Halo. For more details on Halo and the Culture check out DEHc-3 HALO and the page that started it all Iain M. Banks' "Culture" references in Bungie's Halo. Pax.

Some of the reviewer's comments are a bit flippant particularly with regard to the plot. Go draw your own conclusions. (Wirehead 16:10:19 UTC) (permalink) Blam!... Blam!... Blam!... Blam!... Blam!... Blam!... Blam!... and Blam! again. The Halo SETI Marines climb EIGHT places to position 77 in the Battle of the Teams. The sudden surge was made possible largely to Banzif who joins the team with... wait for it... 3141 units and also Oddot with 326 units. Welcome guys find yourself a bunker! Full details can be found on the 24 hours team stats page. (Wirehead 15:22:21 UTC) (permalink) Staying on the Wallpaper theme check out Battleground: Halo for some cool stuff.
