: It doesn't seem that he's emailing to correct a mistake as much as asking for
: clarification.

: Honestly, I'd be emailing them to correct a mistake... your cut-scene is
: wrong Bungle!

Hey all,

Kevin Grace here, official title of Managing Editor for 343 Industries, and I wanted to back up Frank's comments about the Encyclopedia. In all of the Halo we crammed into the Encyclopedia, some errors did slip through and we absolutely hate that we missed (I hate that I missed) anything that might take away from the overall book. I apologize for any mistakes and please believe me that we've already learned from this process...we love Halo as much or more than anybody, and we want every single Halo story/game/anything to be as perfect as possible.

As you can imagine, taking on "everything in the universe" is a herculean task and almost impossible to nail perfectly first time, which is why editions of Encyclopedias often have an “erratum” section in the first place. Luckily we can do erratum quicker than the folks at Brittanica ever could, thanks to the wonders of the intertubes.

As Frank said, we're going back through the book to find any other issues both for use in a possible second printing of the Encyclopedia and also to make sure everything is accounted for in all future fiction. In the meantime, please don't mail back your copies of Halo 3...Truth was indeed the pistol-packin’ Prophet who took Miranda from us.

Thanks,
Kevin
