I haven't read it yet, but I haven't heard anyone else say anything about the Ark being there. If it did say that, I'm sure someone would have mentioned it by now. Could you provide a page number or a quote so I could read it?

There's also these images which state otherwise.

Oh, and listen to this.

Ark = Something, lol
Covenant = Alien Race

-----------------
Christians will understand what Im talking about when they read this phrase. I phreaked.

Remember a little thing called the "Ark of the Covenant" in the Bible ...?

EDIT: Tural, June 14 = beta?

I'm not religious and I know what the Ark of the Covenant is. 'Twas the enclosure which housed the 10 commandments. Got lost (Never reappeared in scripture) sometime later, sometime around an invasion or something.

Also, why did you say "Ark = something"?

Information regarding the date in my signature is classified.

-Short burst of life
-Short burst of speed ( I swear somewhere I saw/heard/read that there was going to be a dash feature that you had to activate in halo 3.... OH! Go look on the posters at headlong behind the building where the human snipe spawns. )
-^I read about that too^
-Boost of ammo
-Short burst of jump height
-Automatic shield recharge (only works once per life or something...)
-AUTOMATIC DOUBLE SHOT! (lol, jk)


Well, I dunno. Its pretty much useless trying to guess anyways.

X Button = Automatic LOLH4X?

And, XTHIRST, Statements 2, 6, 8, 9, 10, and 11 are all completely or partially wrong. I suggest you re-read the book and pay more attention this time.

I would like to point out that just because 1up said they didn't have to activate their x button, they may not have seriously meant "activate" in a literal sense. they could very well meant "use" and just have used the word activate instead. I would just like to clear that up, I personally believe it is something "activated" I would just like to state that It may not be.

I think it would activate a secondary feature on weapons/vehicles, well I hope so at least. That would be pretty cool.

please, check topics before you post so you don't sound ignorant. and activating/using have different meanings. you activate a start sequence for a bomb etc. but you use a toothbrush.

You can activate a bomb, or you can use a bomb, just because they have different meanings doesn't mean they can't be used the same way. The words "then" and "than" have different meaning and can be used the same way. Also please use correct grammar, so you don't seem ignorant.

Define "same way." The words are not interchangeable.

Idiotic people say "I have more then you." instead of "I have more than you." Just as many people easily confuse the words "activate" and "use", as their definitions are somewhat similar.

Just because people use it incorrectly does not mean they "can be used the same way."

Correct, they "are used the same way" sometimes. Just as the words "use" and "activate" are sometimes used incorrectly in which this could be the case. After all, it is the internet, where most of the people either can't or choose not to speak correct English.

The point of my message was to show you that the comparison of "use" and "activate" is absolutely unlike that of "then" and "than."

You are correct, but I couldn't really think of any other words at the time.
Well, I think you should post at the top on every page the quote from 1Up so that we don't have a million "it liek makes yoo run fast" replies.
