Nah I don't think he needs it. I mean if they put it in there, they would have to do combo moves, and have to redo the controlls to suit the sword. Now if they did it in like a little demo of how it would be if they did put it in, then that would be fine, or like a little part of a level like you encounter two elites and you shoot one in the head, killing it, then your out of ammo in both guns, and you pick up the sword it had and fight the other one.

I just don't think the MC walking around with any kind of sword would look or feel like something he'd do. I'm personaly against it.

Oh Plazma Swords would be awsome! I obviously disagree with the last two people. You can just simply program the sword into the melee button. Sure you'd have to put in combos but who cares? What would be tight is if the sword could shoot out plasma bursts! But to make it fair it has to over heat and then to sword burns out too...what a bummer.

Early screens of a pre-XBox Halo also showed not only a machete, but a pretty up-to-date Master Chief holding a plasma sword, don't forget. Check it out here at halo.bungie.net if you haven't already seen it.

My point is, it was in the original game for a time, so maybe we'll see it again, maybe we won't, who knows. Hoping for it isn't completely unfounded because of this. Personally, I don't think it matters, Halo is cool enough on it's own.

i agree, but you gotta mess around... and the ultimate disgrace, getting killed in right in the face by a plasma sword when you are sniping. haha awesome... think though, easy just melee button, and is that pic photochopped? or is it legit?

PLasma swords would rock, just think if they let you swing it by use of the control stick, somehow. Two people would be dueling lightsaber style! It also would be awsome to sit in the passanger side of the Warthog and drive up to another, chop off its weel and watch the dude crash!

what would be good is:
it is an instant kill melee weapon
it can chop inanimate objects
e.g. rocks, trees,vehicals(excluding multiplayer)and maybe guns??
but since it is plasma it uses all its energy with one or two hits

Plasma sword for mulitplayer, not campaign. That is the only good way of having it.
