This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.
Title for Reference.
It's incredible that, even while being with their backs against the wall, outnumbered by a much superior foe and outmatched technologically and knowing that everything is against them, the faithful UNSC marines still keep their cool in the middle of a firefight and even in the middle of major battles.
It's confidence like this that can determine battles. The jokes that'll cool down the squad in a tense moment, always trying to keep the squads spirit up no matter how bad the situation gets, and remarking or making witty comments on the death and how bad their enemies suck to lift the morale. Even the deep relationship resulted from these marines, these brothers in arms in times of extraordinary crisis, resulted from going through moments that would crack any other. But no, they were there for each other, caring when a teammate, a brother, got shot or went down. Asking for support, or yelling at their brothers to run at the imminent detonation of a grenade.
These men and woman are the UNSC's highest valued resources. An infinite source of jokes and witty comments, along with those yells of care for others.
Yeah, so I made all this up from simply hearing ''Marines, lets get mounted!... I didnt mean it in a rough way, though'' while playing Halo 3 on The Covenant with IWHBYD on Legendary. I still find it austounding that after 4 years, I still hear new comments from the marines. It's ridiculous. I actually only play the campaign just to hear what the marines and Grunts will say. I love it. That's something where the UNSC Army failed in Reach, they werent funny and therefore they lost and all got killed.
So yeah... Dont you love it, too? When was the last time you heard something funny from the AI? What's the funniest line you've heard?
