Subject: Why did Jorge Sacrifice himself?

I suspect llamas are secretly wizards. I <3 poptarts n' milk. I like me. Grimick is defined as: a logical parodox, the act of funnaling a potato down your throat, and a deliciously flavored muffin (with pecons and blueberries). Norway is the Swedish word for 'moron'. My sister has cancer, so i get to use handicap parking and cut small children in line at Disneyland.

"Don't eat doughnuts on thin ice."

"The pancake, my friend, has officially been flipped."

Auto-detination broke. :(

I feel the same way about Jorge, but i try not to analyze Halo: Reach too much... I mean half the stuff in the game doesn't even make sense.

My theory is that Halo: Reach was made by people who never played halo.
Halo Reach is nothing but ONI propaganda.

I read something similar to this before... The thread was saying that this was ONI's way of telling the rest of Humanity what happened on Reach, to make it look like we gave them a real fight, but in reality (well Halo's reality) the UNSC got smashed.

He thought he would win the war for them

It gets weirder if any of your Marine backups survive to the end, as one of them would surely do it rather than let a Spartan die doing it. Loose ends like that just annoy me.
especially since gravity in the VOID OF SPACE was your only exit out...

now THAT is a f'n interesting concept! Never considered that before! Kinda blew my mind, not going to lie.
I'm debating making a huge thread on this.


I don't understand. You mean there never was a Reach, or that it was never destroyed?


He means that the game, Halo: Reach, is entirely ONI propoganda and TFoR would be what really happened while the game would be nothing more than a completely made up story with no basis in reality at all except that there actually was a planet Reach and the Covenant did invade and destroy the colony.

What he's proposing has no basis to it whatsoever and doesn't even really have a source to back it up. And there are logical flaws within the very idea itself.

I don't wanna be "that guy"... but if you played the game, and listened to the dialogue/watch the cut scenes, it is pretty self explanatory as to why he sacrificed himself.

The detonator was broke/fried and someone had to trigger it manually. He grabs you and tosses you out so you can't do it, leaving him being the only one who could trigger the bomb. He thought he was saving Reach... a noble gesture proving futile.

He thought that by doing so, he would save Reach, and possibly lean the war's favor towards the humans. Unfortunately, he was wrong.
