Games I like:,
Half-Minute Hero
MBU
Portal
Halo 3 is the best Halo ever
Maps I like: Turf, Avalanche, Pylon, Sandbox, Breakpoint and many more.

The rookie doesnt have a name, unlike Master Chief, as it would confuse new players.

Did you ever see Master Chiefs face? Or Noble Six's?

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Because your suppose to put yourself in their shoes. That's why all Bungie games have a quiet/silent protagonist.

This is a RETICULE, and that is a RETICLE. I'm using the latter to aim. And what are you using?

Noble 6 died a few months before ODST takes place, so .... no.

Anyway, the reason for not showing the main protagonist's face in video games is for reasons of immersion, so you can identify with him/her. I think that's just silly, but whatever.

The Rookie is the only silent protagonist. Master Chief talks during the games, and so does Noble 6.

That's why I said, "quiet/silent."
