Does anyone know what the newspaper actually says?

The super tiny black text that you can't read. Has anyone bothered to blow the picture up and look?

I know that in halo 2 there are diagrams in the matchmaking screens with super tiny text that people enlarged and were able to read. I wonder if the same can be done here.

I've always wondered that myself, maybe I'll look into it.

EDIT: Ok, I just got a nice picture from the GH360 top scores page, and so far this is what I'm getting:

"Flooding says it was by ----------
that breed got the opportunity to"

That's about all I got. By the way, here's the pic I went by.

Ah yes, I've done that many times also. Another method I use [but don't recommend] is filling in the bubble sheets with Guitar Hero note charts.

Yes, chances are your going to fail the test if you do, but hey,
my high score for BubbleHero is 68%!

Going from what thecaptainof said,

This is what I get on the first column:

(Flooding) says it was by coincidence the band got (the/this) opportunity to travel to ___. Another band was (unable) to travel at the last (minute) and so he and his band were offered the opportunity to go in their place.

With some trepidation they ___ their first trip and with the overwhelming response the received at [score] "Deadly Murphys," an Irish pub located in the heart of a ___ ___. Upon ___ the establishment out, they discovered a ___ ___ Irish Pub with excellent (Guinness) and good pub grub. It also happened to be ___ ___ ___ so the band ___ [tape]

() are really just guesses - it's hard to read a lot of this. I'm not as sure about the second column. I'll have to look back at it when I have more time.

Well, I tried to enlarge and enhance the image, but I don't have a very good program. I was able to read it a little better, but didn't get anything more than was already said.

I loaded up GHex, went to ui/gen/endgame.milo_ps2/me_newspaper.tex, PrtSc'd, and pasted into Photoshop to do away with the analog capture's blur and the masking tape textures. Here's what I was able to pick out. Question marks are words I couldn't pick out at all, and are not indicative of length. Parentheses are words that I think are right but am not sure, either due to ambigious letter shapes or due to blotches added to the image over the words - I tried to use the context around them to figure them out. It seems like it's halfway gibberish, like they took parts of sentences and blended them together such that they don't make full sentences here and there. Concerning the break between the two columns, I think that whatever the source, they skipped quite a bit, as the sentence structure just doesn't match up if you butt them together.

I think there's one thing we can all agree on... we all have far too much time on our hands.
