For those of you who read the books: Remember when John beat those ODST guys to death in the weight room and didn't even realize it..... Yeah, I think I'll go with the Spartans.......
Just bought 'em t'day. Really? TO DEATH?
HELL YES! TO DEATH!
Oh, and he was 17 at the time.
Also, look at it this way:
ONE (1) Spartan took out "an entire Covenant armada and the Flood" SINGLE HANDEDLY! Yes there were Marines, but they didn't do anything except maybe draw a little fire from you now and then. Think of the COUNTLESS Elites you slaughtered. I personally have beaten the Legendary campaign numerous times (not saying this to boast, just trying to prove a point) and if you've played TaR on Legendary then just on that mission you killed possably 30+ Elites. So that scrates Elites off the picture. Brutes, (I CAN'T WAIT TO PLAY AGAINST THESE THINGS!) I can't talk about. Hunters are a joke. Jackals/Grunts, so many; so, so many. Prophets don't even fight, so if your talking about in a combat situation they would get ripped to shreds before they even saw what was comming. Sentinals are a joke. Flood are interesting. Singly they are nothing, but the entire concept behind the Flood is that they (no pun intended) flood you. So they don't really count. I already talked about how worthless Marines were. Now the fun part ODSTs. I don't know much about them from the games (not much info has been released), but in the books they are ABSOLUTLY CRAZYLY NUTS! I can't wait to work beside these men and dominate the Cov. so hardcore now.
Summery:
Spartans are the only reasonable choice.
