A better question is who cares?

In the game 'Dead of Alive 4' developers 'Team Ninja' used a Spartan Model in their multiplayer fighting mode. They gave it some canonical reason, saying there was a rip between dimensions or something. But basically it was just because Bungie said they could.

In return, Team Ninja granted Bungie the use of the katana and Hayabusa Armor- notable for their appearance in the very popular 'Ninja Gaiden' game series (as evidenced here by the katana and hayabusa helmet).

It has no place in the canon of Halo 3 so don't try to apply some storyline meaning of how it doesn't fit into the Halo universe mate. It's in there because it was a cool little addon Bungie was allowed to use. And it's freaking awesome, and totally badass.

It's a nice little thing that Bungie threw in there for the fans. Don't be rude about it because it's "non-canon".

There's also a giant soccer ball in the DLC maps and freakin' golf clubs.

Pretty much what he said. He's got it almost perfect.

useless

so is the rest of the armor perms. Bungie could have made us all use Mark IV armour but no they made more and katana happens to be one of the armour perms available. The questions I want answered is why do people hate security helmit (I love it) and will it be in reach...
