My old Bungie.net account was created February 6, 2008. Unfortunately, I had signed up using my brother's email account (we then shared an Xbox Live account which was linked to my old Bungie.net account), and he changed the password, meaning I couldn't log in. Thus is why I have this account.

...we already know this.

An opinion should be the result of thought, not a substitute for it.
- Jef Mallett

I welcome the chance to be someone other than a Spartan. One of the biggest reasons I look forward to ODST is because I don't play as a character that should by all definitions kick ass. I want to play a character where I should feel proud and skilled when I do something awesome, not like I suck because it should have been easier.

YOU'RE STILL ALIVE?!?

What made you think we wern't going to?

I am of an open mind and I am willing to hear criticism. Also: That's stupid and you're stupid.

Halo Wars wasn't developed by Bungie, and technically you could be a Spartan if you made one.

Besides, I am pretty sure we will play as one of the hundreds of Spartans.

Well you really aren't anything.

Besides, isn't telling them where to go and what to shoot the same thing in a way?

Theres no way we won't play as a spartan, like we'll be Marines playing next to Spartans that'd be dumb. Theres only one real halo game where you don't play as a spartan and thats ODST but thats only one out of the 4 games where in 3 of them you play as a Spartan, so it doesn't mean we wont ever play as Spartans again

im not saying halo reach would suck if you didnt play as a spartan.im just saying there are a lot of spartans on reach and it just makes more sense to be a spartan

Based on the books, I think you will play as Master Chief, other spartans, or playing as one spartan while controlling the others spartans moves. I think it's safe to say you will play as a spartan.

In the book master chief wasnt technically on reach when the battle took place so odds are you will play as another spartan

Campiagn Kill Count :31,745. And growing.

The Revisionaries- One of the greatest screenshot groups on B.net. With 250 members and growing.

We'll probably play as a different Spartan in Reach, or skip around playing as the main ones. I'm kinda hoping Kelly's the main character. That would be cool.

Fact 2: European guys are hotter

I guess I can understand if you don't want to make out with guys in the US if they're so ugly, you should just say so though.

Interesting perspective. I agree.
