Citizens of Me! The cruelty of the old Pharaoh is a thing of the past. Let a whole new wave of cruelty wash over this lazy land.

Hear the word of Pharaoh. Build unto me a statue of ridiculous proportion. One billion cubits in height......that I might be remembered for all eternity!

And be quick about it!

Elites are teh sauciest

Still using a pump-action shotgun over 500 years in the future I see.

omg not realistic stop game production plz

inb4 everyone votes Elites....

For me it's the Brutes. They're the only Covenant enemy that I genuinely stick out as terrifying to me in the novels. Even the Hunters are portrayed as slightly sluggish (though still immensely strong).

But the Brutes? "Stomping on the Heels of a Fuss" has me convinced that they are horrific. Incredibly fast at moving, insanely strong, barbaric in every war....and Master Chief was nearly killed by one, which was awesome to read. That single Brute encounter makes me want to re-read First Strike.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Hunters.

Straight from the wandering mind of Watson 203

Engineers, damn Covies enslaving them, although I guess they don't seem to mind too much.

"I will show you how a true Prussian officer fights!"

"And i will show you where the iron crosses grow..."

- "Cross of Iron"

Elites. They are the most challenging and fun to fight.

yeah man

Hunters because I like the way they recite poetry and meditate in their spare time. Also they're made of spaghetti.

  • 02.23.2012 12:28 PM PDT

The species I LIKE the most are the grunts. But as an enemy I'm going for the buggers. They are extremely irritating in groups because you can get surrounded very easily. I'll vote for them.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

We’re flawed because we want so much more. We’re ruined because we get these things and wish for what we had.

The Forerunners didn't treat them much different.

Hunters. Although i've always liked prophets, who wouldn't want an antigrav chair?

"I may not be perfect, but always been true."

Brutes, I like how they can tear the arms off of a Marine without no difficulty.

  • 02.24.2012 6:51 PM PDT

You know our motto, We deliver!

Elites. Although when I was younger I used to think Jackels were awesome because they had thier shields. I thought that looked really cool.

Hunters also aren't far behind.

Halo 2 > Halo 3 > Halo 3 ODST > Halo Reach > Halo CE

Based on campaigns.

The brutes

Their super strength, awesome looking armour, awesome weapons and brutal nature just make them the best. They are even matched against Spartans and elite, they are born super soldiers.

Halo 2 brutes are barbaric and brutal
Halo 3 brutes look awesome
Halo Reach brutes are the strongest

Nothing beats the brutes n terms of awesomeness

Might I say elite honor guards from Halo 2? They were by far the coolest enemy in my humble opinion.

Brutes.

They are incredibly unpredictable. When I expect one to come rushing at me, he fires a Fuel Rod.

When I'm expecting him to stay put and let me recover, he's right beside me in seconds.

Elites, they can hold their own against everything you do to try and kill them.

Try to splatter them, they evade and hijack you.

Try to get behind them to assassinate them while in cqb, they roundhouse kick you.

Try to snipe them, they'll sprint past you and try to de scope you.

They are so challenging.

Well slap my balls and call me Santa, I've got lizard tits!

Elites.
Though I quite like Skirmishers(even if they aren't listed) and Engineers.

Grammar N4zi Mode: Can tear the arms off of a marine without NO difficulty? (Not trying to be offensive here, even though I probably am)

Prophets. You only fight one in the Halo series (so far) but it was so much fun using Halo 2's super long energy sword lunge to fly past the guards, and then bashing that a hole's head in.
