I think its obvious that Johnsons head is actually a helmet.
It's the 'next Recon' that everyone's been talking about.

Also, personally, I really don't like the idea of Johnson being playable, even if only because it means he will require a HUD. If Bungie manage to explain this correctly, I'll be happy, but if they just throw him in as a player-skin and give no explanation for why he has a neural interface burned into his retinas, I'll be kinda bemused.

I never thought of that - I think it might just be the same for gameplay's sake...

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?
Black Tower

you think that's an ordinary cigar/hat combo?
you're wrong.

On second thought, in order to make it more realistic, they might remove the HUD altogether, and just keep the weapon...it can't be worse than having the Blind skull on, and it will be an added challenge for using a special character!

The stuff on your HUD isn't actually seen by the character. They don't see which grenade is equipped, all that stuff is there for your benefit.
The character is actually seeing the HUD as well.

Heh, yeup. That's me being knitpicky.
Military personnel wear covers, not hats, though.
Sgt. Johnson wouldn't be very happy if he knew you said he wore a hat.

He is wearing a hat in firefight.

His cigars are actually bouncing sonar waves off of enemies and he is using his supersonic hearing abilities to see the enemies. So when you play you will see something similar to a bat's sonar resonance imaging.

"If buttered toast lands buttered side down, and cats always land on their feet, then what happens when you attach buttered toast to the back of a cat?

A cigar and some super awesome immunity. Oh, wait....

See those shades?

I imagine they'll use the same technology as the ODST helmet, if they're in the game.

its obvious the ammo count is stitched to the bottom of the bill of his hat, and his cigar light is what gives him the night vision.

Halo: CE Anniversary Achievement Idea
C-C-C-CANNON BREAKER!
Let Sgt. Johnson die on Halo.

Maybe he can get once of those fancy green screens that all of the Marines had in Halo 1!
