Looks like I'm gonna have to set this thing off manually". "That's a one way ticket." "We all gotta check out sometime." If that's not a Michael Bay moment, then I'm not sure what else is. I wasn't sure whether to yawn or laugh. I will say one thing positive about the campaign though (without a spoiler). I like what happens after the credits. That really captures the mood of what the game should have had more of. |
**Spoiler Alert**
You mean the Scene where Jorge and Noble 6 defend the tactical nuke they worked so hard to get into the Covenant Corvette? The scene where dialog like that was said, but something much more dramatic was acted out. A lot of marines died in getting it there and after a long fight someone had to detonate it. So Jorge takes off his dog tags and says to Noble 6 that "Reach has been good to me. It's time to for me to give something back." Also remember that Jorge was born, raised, trained and fought on Reach in his 30 something years of being alive and being a Spartan.
So Jorge sticks his hand out with the dog tags to Noble 6. Six sticks his hand out to grab the tags and shake Jorge's hand. Saying its been a pleasure. And while this shake happens, Jorge picks him up, walks him over to the edge of the ship and throws him from the Covenant Corvette,free falling off the ship and back to Reach. Seconds later the Corvette explodes. You later come to find out that Jorge thought he gave his life and saved Reach, but in actuality he on had stopped one of hundreds of covenant Crafts inbound. That was such and epic scene, and it's fine if you found the dialogue not to your liking. But don't downplay the significance of that Scene and the story. What an amazing game.
**Spoilers End**
But at least we can both agree about the ending. Good stuff.
