I would say, from released screens, reviews, stories, and of course Shishka's post above, the battle rifle is indead 2 handed. The SMG is not, plenty of videos and screen shots proving it can be dual wielded. Dual wielding a sniper rifle would be A) Stupid and B) Totally against the spirit of the sniper rifle, since it is made for accuracy over range, not negative accuracy at mid distance. For the rocket launcher I see no point of discusion. Plasma Rifle seems to be 1 handed, usually pictures show elites or spartans holding it in just one hand, not both. That might just be the animation, but I am pretty sure. I imagine the review had a typo or such, or a misnamed weapon.
Somef--, why would't you believe a mod? They know much more than any of us, and wield amazing power rivaled only by total Bungie employees if at all. And, as far as we know, they have no reason to lie to us about such things.
Shishka, do all the mods work at Bungie or for Bungie via communication (i.e. email, phone, etc.). I've always wanted to know. Or are they just volunteers who got a lucky pick and now get many perks.
EDIT: Master Cheif sounds like a Navy title, but the lines might be a little more blurred in space combat and force deployments. Quick question, risking sounding stupid, the Navy expands both sea and space correct? From what I've seen/read it apparently does, but wanted to confirm.
