my favorite game in the intire world is halo

In my persoal opinion Samuel Spartan-034 is my favorite because he was discribed as the strongest and one of the fastest spartans and he was the biggest. if he wouldnt have died so early i think he would have made a big diffrence in the war against the covenant. he is my favorite because he made the ultimate sacrifice for his friends and for what he beleved in. He died a true spartan.

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.

Brah, edit your title. All cap threads get locked.

My favorite is either Tom or Will.

make sure to give your reason why

No u

My favorites, besides John because that's just cliche, are Fred and Sam.

Fred was humble, always choosing to take second place in all of the competitions even though he could have taken first. He was intelligent and the best at hand to hand combat. He was a great leader and was all around good.

Sam made the most impact on me (besides John) because of his sacrifice. He was giving, he was tough, he was the biggest, he was the strongest, and he had a good heart. His sacrifice was the rallying call for the Spartans. He was one of my favorites because of this.

"On the seventh day, god did not rest, but rather he created 64 player multiplayer!"

Kurt is my favorite.

He has many similar qualities to the Chief, including being a fantastic leader. He is honorable, and does what needs to be done.

That's pretty much a basic quality in all Spartans.

I would say that the best of all the Spartans would probably be John. My reasoning, just look at what the guy has done, I'm not so sure that any other Spartan could have achieved everything John did throughout the whole trilogy. The guy successfully fought through High Charity, not once but twice, and one of those times when it was completely overrun by the Flood and turned into their hive. And most of what he has done has been accomplished almost completely by himself.

Other than John I would have to say it's most likely Fred or Noble Six. Fred, because he always placed second in exercises the Spartans had, and Six because it's pretty much stated that she's as good as Master Chief at the very least.

Kelly. She is by far my favorite Spartan and Halo character to read about. She's strong, fun, quick and is just enjoyable.

Least favorite would be Linda though.

I really liked Kurt, but i gotta go with John.

  • 08.24.2011 3:22 PM PDT

Halo,its finished.
No,I think we are just getting started.
:D

To tell you the truth I agree Six IS as good as the Chief.I really think six could have made it off reach alive...He/She didn't need to stay and die,we all know Master Chief could have lived and saved the POA.Sadly it wouldn't have matched the storyline if six did live.Speaking of which how did Jun die?

Is it so wrong if I pick a Noble?I mean I'm only like the second one to pick one from Noble Team.I guess my favorite spartan would be Jun or Jorge.Jun because he is a sniper and he doesn't hate his enemies and does what needs to be done despite the guilt he feels.Jorge I like because he is a smart,kind-hearted guy and he loved Reach and did everything he could to defend it and his fellow soldiers.

Six is cool, but he didn't exist..so...
My favorites are probably Kurt and Will. Kurt freaking rambo's some covies in GoO, And *SPOILER* Will hand to hand combats 2 hunters and kills one just to buy his team time.

Six all the way. Across the sky

I like noble six but I dont like the way the game portrayed him first off hes a spartan 3 not a spartan 2 and he wasnt on noble team he lead his own team I think they should have followed the books more closly.

I love John. Following him through the games, and then learning a lot more about him on a personal level through the novels, makes him my top Spartan. He's just a great character. Very strong, and endearing. After reading The Fall of Reach (my first novel) the first Spartan, other than John, who I grew quite fond of, was Kelly. It was almost instantly that I grew quite attached to her. She's playful, and has a bit of a cheeky attitude, as well as being focused and strong. Her incredible speed is awesome, too. I'm reading GoO now, and I'm loving Kurt.

The strongest Rivals are also the strongest allies.

Kurt., his Death, no his entire existance was pure badassery.

  • 08.24.2011 3:49 PM PDT

Spartan 1337! he's one heck of a mama himself! :P

  • 08.24.2011 3:53 PM PDT

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

James. Doesn't get much recognition, but I admire him for his doggedness, bravery, and courage. He took on two Hunters after they blew off his arm.

I completely agree. The best spartan is obviously John-117. All spartans show the qualities of being strong, courageous, and natural born leaders (well... at least most of them). However, John had one thing that all the other spartans did not and that was... luck. He is the only spartan remaining that the video games show.

Least favorite is Kat... Terrible driving mixed with a lame death (sniped by a jackal in one shot) equals fail.

Bungie itself admitted that Halo Reach was not to be taken literaly, but instead it was supposed to be an artistic interpretation of relevant events, not particularly relegated to the Battle of Reach itself, but pertaining to mankinds' struggle for survival in general. The events in the game did not actually happen, and only a handful of the characters actually existed. The rest were just metaphorical avatars for different forces of nature, and different aspects of human nature. Noble 6 in particular, was supposed to represent the raw survival instinct in humanity, the cold, unfeeling baseline component of human psychology that urges our continued self-preservation, and is what carried our species not only through the Human-Covenant war, but also to the top of our food chain. Of course the flip side of the same kind is that N6 also represents the savage, animalistic side of humanity, that stigmatizes development and cooperation.

The last two levels of Reach represented mankinds' final evolution as mortal beings of this universe, and ultimately our ascendance to another plane, in order to escape the impending fate of a dying universe (escape of POA from a burning Reach), wracked by the conflict of the primordial forces that created it. In particular, the death of Noble 6 represents that while humanity must shed it's savage nature in order to complete the final evolution (these baseline instincts originated from our time as beasts, and thus they anchor us to beasts), our warlike traits will be neccesary in securing our salvation before it perishes (N6's sacrifice to help the POA make orbit). All very vague, I know, but that's in order to keep the mystery sealed.

Oh, and moas represent hamburgers, becasue they're fun to shoot at. F**k moas. Oh, and I think that Kat was supposed to represent b*tches. B*tches get shot in the head.
