Samus doesnt count because she isnt a marine, nor does she wear space marine armor (the space marines in the metroid universe wear human attempts at duplicating samus' armor)Lyiat said:Is she? I thought she was just a bounty hunter. Hired help.CarrionRoc said:If she's a Marine then yes.Tsuki Tanaka said:ME
Nah, j/k.
Does Samus Aran count?
i say we're going with Has worn the universes standard space marine powered battle suit. Samus thus doesnt count because she only wore an official space marine armor in corruption,and then it was a specialty marine armor, not standard.Tsuki Tanaka said:Well, what definition are we running on with "space marine?" Anything in Power armour? Or actual affiliation with a space military, etc.?ZeroMachine said:She's not, she's a bounty hunter.CarrionRoc said:If she's a Marine then yes.Tsuki Tanaka said:ME
Nah, j/k.
Does Samus Aran count?
"Hunter Clad in Metal" as the space pirates call her...
... but she still has my vote. I don't care if she ain't a marine. XD
MC is not a space marine, nor does he really wear a suit of powered armor. his back up is wearing more armor then he isPirateKing said:I'll say Master Chief. He was the first space marine I knew.
master chief only has a few crappy lines in the entire series, and even then, they are shitty. MC doesnt count either because he is not a space marine, he is just wearing a very colorful Hawaiian shirt. i find the walls more likable then MC, and even the main charicter in ever god damned FF game is more likable because they are not treated as gods.Amanov said:Master Chief.
Best voice ever.
technically no, MC is supreme admiral of earth's starfleets007Loser said:Sergeant Major Johnson is a space marine.

Seriously though, Gordon Freeman isn't either of those and people have been posting him. If you're gonna nitpick so much then why not do something about that?
Anyone who wears armor and shoots aliens in space is close enough to be called a space marine.
technically The Emperor isn't a Space Marine, he's a god... and he created the Space MarinesMichael_McCloud said:Uhm... This is pretty simple, folks.
The Emperor.

the reason people hate halo is it has just gone from fun game you spend 5 hours in single player for, to multiplayer FTW, then RTS (which blows megagoats). halo isnt a game, its a money sink. Halo only had enough storyline for one game and a short story. they have dragged it out so far as to neither be fun or good. and to say that the series is good is to admit you have never went on a leviathan rampage in UT04 or have played the entirety of Gears of War 2PirateKing said:Just saying there's a lot of Halo hate here for some reason. I just think it's strange that opinions have drastically changed about such a popular franchise. I am not calling them cowards. Someone did mention the Halo sucks argument a few quotes ago.tiredinnuendo said:Come on, wash the sand out of your craw here and just let it go. No one's doing a "Halo sucks" rant, there's no call for you to basically call them out as cowards and liars. Halo isn't too popular on these boards. What can you do?PirateKing said:I remember a day when people were brave enough to say they liked Halo. Those days were nice.
Especially in this instance where you can't pick Master Chief because he is not a marine. It has nothing to do with liking/disliking the franchise. Just let it drop.

I would drop it if I hadn't been quoted by twenty(hyperbole) people. I'm sorry for taking the term space marine and thinking of it in a general sense.
For the sake of ending this firestorm, I'll say Johnson is my favorite.
You know what? You don't need to quote me on this. Several pages of this thread are devoted to me being flamed for picking Master Chief. Several people have already done this work for you. Please refer to those if you're curious. These posts are a few months old. I thought it would finally be over.toapat said:the reason people hate halo is it has just gone from fun game you spend 5 hours in single player for, to multiplayer FTW, then RTS (which blows megagoats). halo isnt a game, its a money sink.

and his own army, starcruiser, and everything. hell, if Raynor wanted, he could get all sorts of shit from the protoss to upgrade the Hyperion with. Raynor also is the penultimate protagonist, no one does hero better then raynor. no one can top raynor. Doomguy may have killed hordes of demons. Raynor has faced armies of nightmares, had his family killed, his girlfriend turned into a fallen angel, his best friend is dead, and nearly everyone he had ever trusted is dead or insane. while the heros of games normally have had something bad happen, Raynor has only 5 reasons to live left. His 3 friends, and killing Mengsk and Kerrigan.scotth266 said:Gonna go with Jim Raynor. I mean, he's only the coolest guy ever. And he has a jetbike.
"gimme somethin to shoot!"Siffit said:All the space marines in StarCraft. Wooh!
Admiral is the shortened name for MC's rank. everyone who has ever told MC what shit to do was breaking the millitary officer codesstinkychops said:Wouldn't he be Master Cheif of the Earths starfleet.toapat said:technically no, MC is supreme admiral of earth's starfleets007Loser said:Sergeant Major Johnson is a space marine.

its still a toss up at who is better, the uncharicterized Doomguy who kills demons for a living, or Raynor, the one man alive who can survive the shear swathes of crap that he has take, and stay saneZeeky_Santos said:Quantum Physicist to be precise.CarrionRoc said:Freeman isn't a Marine he's a scientist.orannis62 said:Does Gordon Freeman count? I mean, he is killing aliens, they just happen to be on Earth. If not, I'd say Doom guy.
Hands down the doom guy was the best. and if i see anyone say "Master Chief" After this post i am going to hit the report button, no exceptions, you've had your chance to contemplate how much better killing demons on phobos (mars moon) is than killing random ass aliens is.![]()
