In Response To: Requiem For a Cyborg (SiMuLaCrUm)

: I noticed in the "What's in a name" section, for this level, it
: only mentioned Requiem for a Heavyweight. Well there is probably another
: reason for the title of the level, and it is the only terminal in the
: level. It has all the newspaper ads for AIs (Thoth, Durandal and Leela
: obviously) who are looking for a cyborg. Why isn't that mentioned in the
: "What's in a name" section?

If the title were Request for a Cyborg, it would be.

My question is, are terminals like that one and the Colony Ship/Abandoned Homeworld for Sale ads supposed to be read as Easter eggs (like the credits terms), or as Durandal indulging his bizarre sense of humour?

They are all secret terms, but then, the M2 demo had Durandal actually use the "colony ship for sale" line in what seemed like an allusion...
