Ok, I've seen videos of all kinds asking the same question. So now I've decided to take the biggest, most debated, and for some reason most violent question EVER.

Can you guess...
It's SPARTAN Verses ODST!!!!


IN THIS CORNER! The Spartan, a highly trained super soldier sent on the missions that you'de have nighmares about. Most famous of the SPARTANS... Mastercheif. These soldeirs wear highy expensive and protective armor and were the main fight against the Covenant.

AND IN THIS CORNER! The ODST. Although they have not been given the special augmentations of a Spartan, they have been given strict and very effective hyper-lethal stealth and recon. Also on top of that... THEY DROP FROM SPACE! Orbital Drop Shock Troopers are dropped for orbit of the celestial body from a UNSC frigit of any other space craft equipped with ODST drop chambers. These ODSTs are essentially Navy SEALs dropped from space and a helleva lot stronger. These ODSTs were recently scene in HALO 3 ODST as a squad were in a fight to save the under seige city of New Mombasa.

The SPARTAN may be strong and powerful, but in my opinion the ODSTs ability to be completely hidden and kill you without a trace would stomp any SPARTAN.

AND IN THIS CORNER(for some reason) A STORMTROOPER. These are the Empire's(STAR WARS) main infantry. They basically serve as bullet monkeys to anyone whoes got a gun, but can a kill from time to time. They could be compared to a Grunt in the Covenant Army. Honestly anybody could kill these guys, so a Spartan or ODST wouldn't have to try to stomp these completly unaware noobs.

Now...wait for it...wait for it...voootttte NOW!

@accordingto343

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

-blam!- this annoying, unoriginal, off-topic thread.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

This is so original. I love ODST's even more then Spartans. But, be practical. Spartans are augmented and have all the new high tech armor.

ODST quote: "if they where any better they would be spartans"

Right. Whats the point of this thread anyway?

I expected to see more votes for the Spartans. Yes they do have advanced armor but its not idestructable. ODSTs are about stealth and being completly hidden at all times.

By the way guys and gals, according to the canon Halo storyline, way more and I mean WAY MORE Spartans died up until 2553 than ODSTs even thought they had just the same amount of mission or close to it.

And on top of all of that, one Spartan cost like a million dollars mabey more. ODSTs probaly fifty-thousand or more a unit. Fell the savings children.

I'll be honest, I'm sceptical.

Pre-Reach, I'm pretty sure I could count the number of 'MIA' Spartan IIs on one hand.
This excludes Spartan IIs not killed / retired through Covenant / Insurrectionist activity.
This also excludes any Spartan IIIs, who were specifically trained as disposable assets.

I also feel I should mention (as nobody else has yet) that after receiving his augmentations, the MC killed/crippled three ODST troopers without his armour

Religion is stupid. Halo is amazing.

FALSE! That was a quote only to one ODST, Buck. He was a great ODST. One of the best. Survived Reach, Survived Earth.

They smash into the ground from space. What part of that is stealthy? If you were going to respond to that with "they have silencers", place the thumb of your dominant hand in your mouth and bit down until it really -blam!- hurts. Having two weapons with silencers on them does not make you stealthy. Having stealth-based equipment makes you stealthy.

No. No, no, no, no, no.

Have you read 'The Fall of Reach'? John-117 totally destroys three ODSTs.

please dont judge by A.I. to player.

in Halo 3 ODST, it takes one bullet, or a short burst.

Are you kidding me? Spartans are not only stronger, faster, and smarter, they also wear far better armor.

ODSTs are NOT better than SPARTANs in stealth. If you read the books you would see that almost every S-II op was stealth/insertion.

Must I also point out that MC took out a squad of ODSTs while testing Mark V armor?
