Read the Halo 3 Manual Now

Microsoft has decided to post the Halo 3 manual online for all to read before the games launch the week. Why the sudden generous kindness in light of all the leaked Halo 3 stuff in the past few days?
Well, it short circuits unauthorized leakage of the manual, at the very least. However, even more important - to Microsoft, that is - it introduces people to Microsoft’s new Silverlight plug-in, their answer to Java/Flash Player.
Microsoft® Silverlight™ is a cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in for delivering the next generation of .NET based media experiences and rich interactive applications for the Web. Silverlight offers a flexible programming model that supports AJAX, VB, C#, Python, and Ruby, and integrates with existing Web applications. Silverlight supports fast, cost-effective delivery of high-quality video to all major browsers running on the Mac OS or Windows.
(Thanks, Xbox 360 Fanboy.)

When I looked at it, some information was still not there. I think it will appear on the 25th.

Dude I don’t even want to spoil myself THAT much.

There’s no spoilers, just a bunch of backstory.
Unless you mean “spoil” as in “being spoiled with riches.” :p

If everything is there, how come I don’t see the flame thrower?
Maybe I missed it somehow.
