WHat if in halo 2 marines sacrificed themselves to destroy the Covenant? As in drive/fly vehicles into thier stuff and blow up or charge in holding a grenade (they already sacrifice themsleves by fighting for earth)

OR

Grunts with satchel charges and stuff. Of course this would bring up issues to do with Iraq, Al quida (spelling?) and various other terroism activities but this didn't stop Command & Conquer Genreals. The first level for the USA is the siege of Baghdad (of course C&C is a differenc universe but then again so is halo)

I dont know...its a pretty serious thing, (suicide bombers), and like you said in light of recent situations they prob wont include any suicide bombing. Just let MC do the killing.

I lost a family friend in the 9/11 attacks and I wouldnt like to see that in H2. It would offend me and bring back memories. Maybe once in gameplay, but not as a normal thing in battle.

Thats what I meant about the whole issues with our modern world thing. In a real time scenario like halo that kind of thing would be happening though.
I'm sorry for your family friend though. I havn't lost anyone, except an Aunt that I didn't see much so I dont know what it feels like really.

I definitly would say this would not be included in Halo 2, thats what the Master Chief is there for. By the way, I'm sorry about your Family Friend and all, but if suicide bombing was in Halo 2, then it still shouldn't offend you, sorry to be hard or "blunt" some people may call it, but it's different from when it happens in a game and when it actually happens.

Weren't helicopters taken off GTA3 because of 911? Because of people presumably pretending to fly them into buildings and stuff offending people etc. So now I'm thinking that people can still be offeneded in halo2 because unlike halo 1 there are now sky scrapers and there are also Banshees/human flying thing . 2 and 2 together = 4 get what I'm saying? Then again you can say Master Chief offends people by jumping on Grunts heads but there you go.

If you get offended by any way from a game, then I'm sorry, but you are not a man, but an infant, and it's your time to grow up.
