Maybe it's just me, but I find it harder to headshot the coveys from behind. I also think they look stupid...

I would have to say fhe Spartans would be the logical choice due to there NOT so large heads. But may I ask where the proof is for the statements you made regarding the advantages and disadvantages of the player models? I admit modding in the past (on a non xbox-live xbox), and from what I remember while creating mods was that the only difference I recorded between the two characters was the weight of the bodies.

Someone told me this before. I believe him to because he is a halo 2 pro. He knows what he is talking about. He said that Elites move slighty faster. He also said that if an elite and spartan both have no shield. If they both melee at the exact same time the spartan will always win.

Wow WILLI I think you're right, after a bit of googling I came up with this page.
Just read the FAQ at the bottom of the page.

Q: In multiplayer, does the Elite character model have any advantages or disadvantages compared to the Master Chief model?
A: Yes. Although the Elite deals and receives the same amount of damage with all weapons as the Master Chief, they have differing
melee attack speeds. In the case of most weapons, the Master Chief has an equal or slightly faster melee attack speed. However
the Elite model can melee attack faster with the Brute shot (0.7) and the Sentinel Beam (1.0). The Master Chief can attack
significantly faster with the Plasma Rifle, Brute Plasma Rifle, Shotgun and Needler, attacking 0.4 seconds faster with the former two
and 0.3 seconds faster with the latter two.


EDIT: The link I mentioned was last updated in 2004, so it's probably not 100% accurate.

Also the spartan can throw plasma grenades faster, while the elite has a few extra shots with the beam rifle.

The spartan can steer the warthog better while the elites can pilot banshees a lot better.

Also a pro told me that elites can jump higher due to bigger legs.
