It is also God's number. Did they do that because it's God's number or do they just like that number? I'm a Christian just to throw it out there, and let's not create a flame war on Religion (because I know that there is the one guy who likes to be in everyones face)

I have always wondered this myself. Always thought it was something like they started out with 7 employees.

I must point out that discussion about Religion is stricly prohibited. But I would just like to say I oppose your views.

This would definitely be true. Halo's references like the "Ark", "Covenant", and much, much more seem to be extracted from Biblical text. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] cRaZyT101 7 is darker, that's why. And it may be because look at Halo, there's quite a few religious references in them. I don't know about the other games, though.[/quote]This thread does, though, seem to be going against this rule...

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] AutobahnRacer Bungie knows that the [i]true[/i] answer to life and the universe and everything is [b]7[/b], not some lame number like '54'.[/quote] Fix'd. Anyways, about the number 7. There's so many references behind the number, from it being [i]lucky[/i], to all the religious references in the Bible and how Halo has a lot of religious references. I would say 7 has, by far, the most reference behind it, when you're talking about 7 it's such a broad number with so much to talk about. I would guess that's one reason Bungie would choose it. Not to mention that 7 was Bungie's thing before Halo as well, so the Halo religion references would be absolutely nothing as to how it originated or why they favorite 7.

Because its the best number.

Bungie knows that the [i]true[/i] answer to life and the universe and everything is [b]7[/b], not some lame number like '42'.

6 is scared of 7.

It's their thing. It always has been, and always will. Bungiepedia says, the number Seven (7) has a hallowed place in riddles, rhymes, scripture, and lore. As a result, it is no surprise that it is Bungie's favorite number. A number filled with meaning and history, Bungie has created its own history around it as well. As a result, speculation runs wild on theories involving the number 7 in Bungie games and at Bungie Studios. Bungie, as usual, is silent on the matter. But it is no secret that Sevens appear throughout Bungie's history. [Edited on 08.15.2010 11:23 AM PDT]

Bible references. The universe made in seven days. Seven days a week. Seven steps to ultimate takeover by Bungie.
-
Finding out the reason is like dividing a number by zero, it's impossible.
-
As a Christian I agree with the OP.. Using my bible on my ipod (NIV) I found 519 times the number 7 was used throughout the bible from the book of Genesis to the book of Revelation.
