Subject: Who is Robert Blake?

Yes, I'm a girl, stop asking.

Republic Commando fans look here.

"This is the way the world ends, not with a bang or whimper, but with zombies breaking down the back door."

I know who he is as a character, but I've been trying to figure out who the picture is of. I've tried looking it up but haven't been able to find anything about who the guy is. I want to say Jason Jones, but I'm not exactly sure.

Anybody by chance know?

If you don't know who I'm talking about, look here.

EDIT: Forgot to mention this is from Marathon 2: Durandal.

I'm fairly confident that they used Jason Jones for that shot of Blake judging from looks. Bungiepedia also has it written up as being Jones, but there's no source to confirm it...

Oh wow, I even looked at that site. I must have completely missed it.

Thanks.

Where does it even mention Jone's name on that site? It seems more like general discussion on the character's motives more than anything else.

I certainly didn't spot this and guess Bungie never thought of it when Jason Jones posed as Robert Blake.
It's the yellowish text right before the break, I missed it as well.

I guess that's not official, but it's really all I've got at this point unless I can get like an official statement from Bungie or something, or someone who knows for sure.

Be courteous and polite to everyone you meet... but have a plan to kill them if necessary.

I thought this was going to be about the Robert Blake who played Pappy Boyington on Black Sheep Squadron.

Haha, I had trouble finding it as well. Just hit Ctrl+F (command if you're on a Mac) and type in Jason Jones. That should find it.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

That does look like Jason...

Do you know what kind of hat I'm wearing?

A party hat; you don't get one. An honor will this party be, a party in your honor, for your honor. Some of Tfear's personal guards are going to be there. You'll be introduced shortly.

Prepare to die.

You gotta remember Durandal was made in '95. That was nearly 16 years ago.
