: Good times. I actually still want an explanation for the eerie Silent

Yeah, exactly.

I have particularly fond memories of the Hippo hunt in Halo 1. I can just imagine how spoiled it would have been if someone had just looked directly at the texture files.

It IS fun to screenshot every single thing in the game and draw imaginary hippo outlines on coffee stains and wet patches of grass. Then, you post your pictures on the forums and people get a good laugh out of your "hippo" that you found on the bottom of a warthog that looks more like a sad clown washing dishes. It's NOT so much fun to open a texture file, scroll down, and see a hippo on a shotgun shell. You might find things faster, but far less people get to enjoy the search.
