Plus, in H2, we played as the Arbiter (sic?) for half the game and that was okay. Master Chief isn't Solid Snake, Mario, or even Duke Nukem. He's just a generic guy with a gun. M$ doesn't need to convince us he's some deep, beloved character. Just give us another great FPS with great multi-player and we'll buy it. |
Soooooo agreed. Never thought he had much character and the voice performance is usually the worst in the each of the games.
To be honest, I may take a lot of flack for this but I had an absolute BLAST with the characters in ODST. Granted, as a HUGE fan of Firefly I may be a tad biased, but the camaraderie and banter, along with the line delivery, was spot on fantastic and really deliver better than ANY OTHER HALO GAME by far (Reach let me down there a bit).
So getting to play with the Chief is not as attractive for me with Halo 4 as Spencer thinks. I'm more interested in seeing them move beyond the Halo/Covenant War/Flood pattern we know all too well by this point.
