OK, so I'm skimming through this forum, and I have noticed an interesting trend in almost every thread. The community has already developed a PASSIONATE love for Romeo
After all, Romeo is gonna be the sardonic, womanizing SNIPER! Whoooo! It's every angst ridden teenage gamer's fantasy! Sniping is s00p3r 133t, after all.
This character has been created from the ground up to appeal to the wistful side of us that wants to be a wisecracking lusty death machine- a role that the Chief did not do that well.
(Bless his heart)
But what if Bungie developed an AMUSING, IRONIC side, and unceremoniously KILLED Romeo? Surely they know about the thousands of overeager fans drooling about him and calling "dibs" on playing as him forever in Firefight... What if they decided to give the rest of us a laugh?
Since all game makers like to include Easter eggs poking fun at other games, (Splinter Cell, Halo 3, Fable 2, Saints Row, Hitman, Dead Rising, ect, ect.)... this is the PERFECT opportunity for Bungie to holla at the guys at Epic!
What could be better than a blatantly obvious Carmine moment?
I personally am hoping for an firefight to happen near the beginning, after finding the squad, and as the ODST's cautiously move out with the smoke, Romeo promptly gets shot in the head after jamming his gun and complaining about it.
Such an homage would be appropriate for the theme, and even more importantly: HILARIOUS.
