If you have ever played StarCraft you know what I'm talking about. It isn't that far fetched.....Is it?

But seriously though StarCraft is one of my favorites. I still play that game. A true classic never dies.

Read the Halo books over and re-compare. The Protoss have some distinct differences from the Covenant.

Tanikaze, it is a joke. I'm not actually making that claim. Read the Halo books over?? HAA- I've never read them in the first place. But after seeing people's postings about the books and the story I'm very fascinated and will be purchasing these books very soon.

If you could give me the names of the books that would help....? Thank You Oh Great One...

Dragoon = Scarab
Reaver = Wraith
Scout = Banshee
Dark Templar = Elites with swords
Templar = Prophets
Probes = Grunts
Zealots = Elites

There are probably some I'm missing and Dark Temps are from Brood War but you get the idea....LOL

Protoss were noble and they didn't want to conquer, they just wanted to defend their homeland and honor. Oh ya, Bungie would not totally rip an idea off of another company.
Woops, just read that you were joking, forget this post. Sorry.

I can't even post something humorous without someone trying to insult or belittle me. Why does it always come to this? Didn't your mother teach you any manners? LOL

It doesn't hurt to smile...c'mon....smile...

Elites = Predators

Think about that same kind of face, the seperating jaws, invisiblity, plasma weapons, both tall and strong MF'ers, come to earth to kill Humans

Hey you got a point there. So when does Arnold Schwarzenager and Danny Glover come into play.

Oh wait. Johnson is Danny Glover - but the mystery of Arnold remains...hahaaehea

Didn't realize you were joking. The Protoss and the Covenant are mildly similar, though. There are just a few distinctions that make them very different.
