I think MC should be shown left-handed if the player is using the Lefty controls. It didn't matter too much in Halo 1 because there was only one gun at a time. Now, with dual wielding, It's more important. The left-handed control scheme switches the two triggers. That would mean a left-handed player would have to pull the left trigger to shoot the gun in MC's right hand and the right trigger to shoot left gun. Seems like that'd be a little confusing for left-handers (nothing we couldn't get use to). It wouldn't take any extra programming or processor power to show the MC as a lefty. If the left-handed control scheme was chosen, the game would simply mirror the chief, placing his right hand on the left side of the screen. It should be quite a simple thing to do, and I hope it is implemented in Halo 2. It would have no effect on other players (right-handers), yet would be very beneficial to left-handers, so if your right-handed this really has nothing to do with you. We don't need to hear rude comments, bashing left-handers etc. Although, I imagine it's a bit fun to bash us left-handers.
