ELITE = SPARTANS??!! THEY'RE TYPICAL SOLDIERS!!! SPARTANS AREN'T!!
Born and raised as soldiers, given; but nontheless. You've got your heads up your asses - pull out for a sec and read through. The Elite's shields are NOT stronger - in the books, anyways. The experience of the books and the GAME differ, slightly more than slightly sometimes, and if we read carefully, we STOLE Elite Shielding tech and IMPROVED UPON IT. I'm talking some really BEEFY program for the Covies - so as to pose an extremely TOUGH enemy, RIVALING ASPARTAN. John SLAUGHTERED EVERYTHING on Halo. I saw, on average, an elite take out maybe 3-6 marines before being put down. Given there are no doubt some different situations ni combat which may tip the scales of that ratio GREATLY, it's still a good in-game average.
Think about it before spewing out some pig-headed criticism.
EDIT: THANK YOU, ShadowSnipe! sheesh.
