Subject: Captain Keyes's Skull

One does not simply walk into Halo.

Remember the level Keyes, where you had to receive Keyes's implants in order to detonate the Autumn? Well, I read about the original script containing the Chief burning his skull and removing the implants, but the skull was too gruesome and they had to take the flamethrower out of the XBOX version. Do you think we will ever catch a glimpse of that skull?

Ok -blam!- folks. I have always wondered whether people that are -blam!- are born that way, or became -blam!- themselves(by their own choice)....or became gradually -blam!- without any choice of their own. So please clarify this please. It would help me understand the whole -blam!- world better.

Another thing...i see a variety of -blam!- people. Those who act like "normal" men, meaning they are not effeminate at all...those who are very much effeminate, but don't dress up in woman clothes....and then those who are very much effeminate and dress up like females.
So does being -blam!- entail acting like a woman or not? Or is it like the cool -blam!- trendy thing? Please CLARIFY this.

I believe it was The Art of Halo book, and it's also mentioned on Halopedia.

Interesting. I can easily see that scene being removed for being too gory. Still, we haven't seen it yet(some of us) so we really don't know if it would have been better or not.

I'm so over all of this.

I would like to see this skull. Too bad the game is so old, I guess we'll never know.

Yeah punching his skull in is much nicer than burning it.

Even if Keye was dead at the time.

And it makes their job a lot easier.

I always offer fair game and usually allow some "extermination" of my teammates. I think that anyone should be able to play Halo or any other game they please.

In Oddball, that skull IS Keyes. It said so in an article about Halo.

How ironic.

In Halo: Combat Evolved, Master Chief had to cave his skull in to collect the neural implant to the ship, but now, the good captain's skull is used as a weapon to cave in the head of your opponent. What a reversal.

Somewhere, somehow, Keyes must be smiling as he sees retribution at work.

That does seem ironic. But if his skull is used to bash in heads, how is it still intact? The Chief bashed in the front to get at the implant....

  • 01.02.2009 3:46 PM PDT

Just message me on live.

It's pretty gruesome when you bash his head in.

True from a certian point of view. Though technically Keys was floodified anyway so there was not much human left. Mostly just the bones.

I was actually referring to them releasing the picture of its condition, charred, maybe some blood on it, or whatever it was left as. At this point, I don't think it would cause problems, as it would be interesting to see an image of it.
