: Grim if you should happen to see this, you should include where these files
: were from IRL originally, like Conversations from the universe being from
: Halo 2's limited edition and such. I recognize a few things but theirs
: ones I have no idea where they came from.

That would be nice. I can't remember where the data drops were from, I want to say b.net pre-release?

: Also are these files in their original word by word formats or were they
: altered to fit current canon?

The Halo 3 terminals have the entire original Librarian and Didact story and the discovery of the Flood and all the stuff about humans being Forerunners, so I'd think the rest are unchanged too. It's really odd to have it up alongside the new Didact and everything else they added and changed.
