If you have played the first halo then you know that Johnson apperared from time to time.
You could kill him.
You could push him off a cliff.
You could run him over.
YOU COULD BLOW HIM UP WITH A TANK.
But the badass always managed to get back up later and return to the fight. Then at the end of halo one if you did it on legendary you can see him hug an elite.
He soon returned to earth with super powers and he could not die.
And now he's back again.
Is he the walking dead?
Is there hundreds of Johnson clones waiting for the next one to die?
Did the elite give somesort of Imortality juice made of grunts that wore off when the monitor killed him?

You decide!

I always did whatever I could to keep every single Marine alive. I often saved one of the Marines inside the Flood containment bunker.

The developers never intended Johnson to be a main character in the Halo series until well into Halo 2's development, which is why we see multiple Johnson's and you're able to kill him. Nontheless, I always liked collecting Johnsons. I got four on the level Halo once. One round through all of em is kinda funny cause they all shout out whatever at the same time.

Woah woah woah , thats badass. Explain how you did this.

Suck it Red!

I usually tried to save the marines but one time I went on a marine killing spree and killed Sgt. Johnson 4 times in the first level.

He's at the first crash site when the Warthog is dropped off. Snag him up there. Then go to the next crash site, the one with the sniper rifle, he's usually at that one. If he's not then just revert to your last checkpoint and try again until he shows up there. Then put both the Johnson's in your Hog and go to the next crash site, the one with the big hill the Marines are all on. If you're lucky you'll get two at this one sometimes but you can get at least three together with ease. But if you get two, you'll get the four in one place, ha. The sniper's rounds will go through anything, including all of them lined up. Have fun!

Thats cool. How do you get them to get in the warthog?

  • 06.22.2009 11:59 AM PDT

You stop the Warthog and let them get in. >_>

  • 06.22.2009 12:55 PM PDT

I do the same thing in every game. It makes you feel good when you save every Marine.
