Subject: Romeo: A Carmine moment?

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.

All roads lead to Sol.

Well Staten in one Bungie Weekly Update said he was "kind of a dick".

So He might.

Riverside23: For all the women of the group, if you've got a real man at least let him have his big piece of chicken.

WhtButterflyLiz: lol. Bring home bigger chikkinz, then, real man!!!

I've heard rumours that he gets killed by a Brute Chieftain but that's another story.

I'm personally going to be playing as Dutch (ESPECIALLY if I start with a lazer!). I don't know why you are generalizing that everybody is going to play as Romeo. I'm just guessing, but most people will play as the rookie and sgt Johnson. Well, apart from the recon fans. They will all be playing as Dare, lol.

But, I need him to support me while I try to kill the Hunters....

As Long as Dutch leaves the granades.

Somewhere out there... in an alternate reality... Marty decided to stay in the ad jingle business, bringing about an age of amazingly orchestrated Pampers commercials.

I guess they could fit it in, since Romeo seems like the kind that has his priorities more set on woman than on being a soldier.
Also, I'm going to be Romeo may pull some moves on Dare.

He did hit on Dare on the Ship.

Anyway... it would be funny if Bungie makes a second ODST, his Brother will show up, and dies by a pack of Grunts.

Just leave Buck out of this, and I'm fine.

  • 06.10.2009 2:19 PM PDT

I'm more Rad than you.

this made me lol

  • 06.10.2009 2:22 PM PDT

I approve of this. The only way this could be better is if one of the ODST's screamed at Dare, "Dare! It's a WORM! THEY DESTROYED NEW MOMBASSA WITH A GIANT WORM!"

  • 06.10.2009 2:30 PM PDT

I'll probly play as Romeo but only because he's a sniper...i wish he was less cocky tho

Either way, there is the potential for Easter egg GOLD in this game.
