"Don't you know? Spartans never die."
Does anyone remember the magazine ads for ODST? They said, "... When the Covenent see our judgement rain down upon them, they will know fear." Mabye not the exact quote, but that's pretty close, of course, only partial. Judement basically the core of what the Comedy tells, and the ad may have been a clue, which (for me ar least) was obscured in hype and the simple way Bungie makes me actually enjoy advertisement. In hindsite, it seems pretty obvious.
Looking over this thread makes it pretty obvious that the vast, sometimes blatant allegories to the Divine Comedy are no mistake. I felt there was something going on that was deeper than just surviving the city. This is definately one of the deeper games that I've played.
Okay, well thanks for putting up with my various long entries and not being too critical. And of course, thanks to Danves for revealing that ODST is much more than just a game. I'm looking foreward to what else the community comes up with.
Finally, before I forget, does anyone feel that we may just be digging up a Halo: Reach Arg? After all, Fourth Wall was pretty heavily involved.
