The Cortana Letters were sent to the Story Page, and early Halo material had some Marathon-like aspects. However, with the release of the final game and its final plot, it has become clear that the Marathon connections are, at best, extremely tenuous. All Marathon-related items in Halo are found in easter eggs, in-jokes, sly references, and other places that do not support a real storyline connection.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/A47A26C6-2EEE-4F14-AF12-FAACBF916834/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
