No Stone Unturned
« on: February 13, 2011, 19:18:08 »
I'm sure that you've all heard the song "No Stone Unturned" by Martin O'Donnel. This song is in ODST, of course.

But I feel as if there is more to this song. Let me tell you my thoughts:
No Stone Unturned. Even the title is thought provoking. If we relate this to secrets in ODST, it means search everything. Leave nothing untouched.

Now lets go into the song. It starts out as a journey, trying to find something. At 20 seconds, you think you've found it! The following music afterwards implies that you have not found it, you were mistaken. You put your head down and manifest the loss. Then you look up, and think: "I can find this. I CAN FIND THIS!".

At 1:30 a depressing music starts playing. After many valiant attempts, you just cannot find it. These failures convince you that it is nonexistent. Then you think about earlier, how you said you will find it. "I will find it!" You say again. At 2:40 you know you can find it. You will stop at nothing. Your journey starts again, hence the fast paced music. Your head is up, not down. You are getting closer. Closer. Closer... There. 3:17. You've found it.

Now how about us, the SGP. Lets find it.

I was just gonna accuse you of a posting spree, but I am too excited now. Well interpreted! ;)
Seriously though, [everyone,] remember to have something to say in every post of yours (excluding the ones in GP, naturally)!

Well, each song seems to correlate to a level (or section of one, for that matter). I need to look into it, but the connected level may be the one we should search.
ODST is all about switches, isn't it?

Scat, as a heavy erudite music listener and as a pianist, I must say this: your post was GLORIOUS!!!
I love when people make up stories inside Music. Yours actually makes sense.

Wow, I expected a lot more negativity for this. Thanks guys!

Although I think the song goes for the whole game, we should definitely figure out where this plays.
I'll see if it's on the wiki.

Ok I've gathered intel:
This song plays after Skyline, and before One Way Ride.This could mean two things. It's in the level Kikowani Station, before One Way Ride. Or, it could be in Mombasa Streets, after you have beaten NMPD, and are looking for Kikowani Station.

I really doubt there is anything on Kikowani Station, but that's just my opinion.
Now we just gotta play through the campaign and find exactly where it is.

Huh, I just realised that New Alexandria is like a mega Kikowani. Any thoughts?

New Alexandria is more like New Mombasa 2.0.
And, well, you know that The Dancing Marty and the Siege of Madrigal are on Kikowani Station? Also, New Alexandria has been said (by Bungie) to probably contain more Easter Eggs than the rest of the game. Can't give you a link though. :P

*cough cough*Crimson Skies*cough cough*

Must... contain.... info....

If Bungie made a Mombasa 3.0, without any impostering, It would be the greatest thing ever.

Oh wait, 360's graphics card sucks.
