I don't actually think Halo tries to be manly. In fact, many promotional art show Chief as just another Human, a svelte one at that.Captain Spectacular said:Halo - Sure it has a space marine who has a desire to kill things but he does it while carrying a gun that looks like it fires foam darts and takes orders from some electronic bimbo. Is that a sun visor on the top of your helmet? What the hell do you need that for? The front of your helmet looks like a giant sunglass lens!
