Halo 3: ODST Box Acronym - ITIFGDM360
As seen [url=http://i26.tinypic.com/jauzh0.jpg]here[/url], a hi-res shot of the ODST box has been found. Per usual, it appears Bungie has put their trademark box acronym, tucked right under the warning box in the lower left on the back of the box. If you can't find it, it reads as "ITIFGDM360".
If you're unfamiliar with Bungie box acronym lore, check out [url=http://bs.bungie.org/mt/mt-comments.cgi?entry_id=409]this page[/url], which highlights some of the past acronyms invented by Bungie. Short story - on just about every game released by Bungie, an acronym graces the back box art. These range from the mundane (DMUKYA - thought to mean "Don't Make Us Kick Your Ass") to the mysterious (JNAMSFTFY - thought to give clues to the hidden powers of the Halo 2 skulls.)
It's fun to try to guess the acronyms, but its also sometimes a clue to something in the game. The Halo 2 soundtrack acronym, EGATFIBGBCSIMAW, was used to narrow down the number and names of the skulls in the game. The acronyms also prove very tricky - there is still debate over some of the individual letters in the EGATFIBGBCSIMAW acronym, and I don't think anybody has ever proven what Halo 2 or Halo 3's acronyms were (they varied for Halo 3 based on the edition of the game that you owned.)
But this one seems a little more accessible. ITIFGDM360. It's not nearly as long, and it has a number at the end. Possibly ends with "god damn my 360"? Your guess is as good as mine. Get to guessing!

In this, I forge a god damn map (360)

If the acronym doesnt need to have one word per letter I think FGD means forged.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Darth Kooky [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Higgman they spelled customizable wrong on the box[/quote] Which is one reason that it's fake. The other is that the actual box doesn't say "and new game mode". The box art on the front was created before Firefight was even announced.[/quote] Have you even read the whole thread? That's just the [u]English[/u] spelling of customisable and as for the "and new game mode" I'm pretty sure I saw that on the copy i saw in HMV. Sorry for getting off topic again but I can't think of anymore suggestions. :/ [Edited on 07.27.2009 10:13 AM PDT]

Possible RROD reference?[/quote] Thats the best one i've heard and this is a thread about the code not spelling.... [/quote] agreed. and why did this thread beome about spelling. two different countries, two different spellings. If sort of like yelling at a geman guy for typing "nien" (i think it's spelt like that)(no in german methinks), and telling him it's spelt "nine" (9). Shoot! now I added to it too. My point is the UK are right, and the US is too. get back on topic people. ITIFGDM360. I think it froze, golly, damned milk 360 I dunno, I can't think of anything.

What's up with this?[/quote] Not Two Stupid Codes ;][/quote] I think someone took the back cover from a British retailer, and the side from a American retailer, the image is shopped together.

Uhh.. You guys know that's the confirmed Box Art, right? You don't need to speculate.

Theres such a thing as humor
-
well at least my acronyms make more sense and actually make a sentence. I didnt scroll up all the way so I only saw three of your posts. Its worse that you quadruple posted.
-
I quadruple posted. Go back to 1st grade and learn how to count, Higgman And lower case letters aren't part of the acronym. Take the United States of America. We don't call it the USOA, do we? [Edited on 07.26.2009 8:36 PM PDT]

You triple posted. Theres this thing called"edit" You added an f(for) to the the acronym I googled it and got links for different parts of it I think two possible ones out of the list were GDM might stand for 1.Global Distortion Metric or FGD stands for 2.forged So my guesses are I think I forged my 360 I think I forged maps(360) Information Technology Infrastructure forged maps(360)(I found an ITI acronym answer but I dont think its right)

Anyway this is what I got with the acronym so far(if it is an acronym, it just might be the game code or something) It's Time I Find Good Doctor for My 360[/quote]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Higgman Then they spell it wrong in the UK because its sill the english language and my spell check says its customizable. [/quote] English varies slightly in spelling between the US and UK. For example: Theater/ Theatre. Wow, you know, bungie.net has an automatic spell check. How come no one uses it?
