OMG, Masterchief is......Gordan Freeman just said.....

[Zaik]

I'm wholeheartedly expecting Duke Nukem to be under that helmet.

It doesn't even make a bit of sense, but I can't really imagine it any other way either.

As for Freeman, I think he's actually mute, and doesn't know any means to communicate without language. I understand the various reasons and advantages to having a silent protagonist, however the way he actively gets volunteered constantly for extremely dangerous stuff without a care in the world as if it was totally normal suggests either he has no way of protesting, or that everyone but him actually knows he's actively being assisted in the shadows by some weird alien loosely attempting to appear human.

And the same goes for Gordon, what do you think his first words spoken would be? What if he had a very feminine voice or a hilarious accent you couldn't take seriously, would that turn you off half life games?

I would love to hear Gordon with a thick Boston accent. He did go to MIT after all. He should say "Pahk the cah over theah, Doctah Kleinah," or something.

According to my friend Chef was already described in the books. He has oily brown hair and freckles.

Yes, John looked like that...when he was six years old.

We're never really given a definitive description for what he looks like circa 2552, but the novel The Flood tells us a bit. He has "short hair with serious eyes, a firm mouth, and a strong jaw." His skin is also rather pale for spending most of his time in the MJOLNIR armor.

As for Gordon Freeman, I like to think of him as a mute savant.

 

[Rewdalf]

If Gordon Freeman ever talks, and he doesn't sound like Ross Scott, I'll give up Half Life forever.

 

[Monsterfurby]

Master Chief's skull is actually shaped like his helmet. And green.

Oh come on. Beat to it right near the end of the posts....

Yeah, Master Chief's most odd characteristic is that he's very pale, seeing that he almost never takes off that helmet. Aside from his face, he also has that, extra-tall, super-muscled physique going on.

 

[Kurokasumi]

I already know what Master Chief theoretically looks like from the books, and if Gordon ever talks, I have no idea, his first words should be something like,
"No Alyx/Barney, that's a fucking stupid idea. If you think it's so smart, you do it. You don't need a M.I.T. degree to wear this HEV suit or press the trigger on the gravity gun. Take them. YOU go risk your life doing something absolutley insane, I will stand here and press buttons to make it look like I'm helping you."
Prefferably in a Bruce Willis irritated smart ass remark tone of voice.

 

[DeathsHands]

Master Chief is clearly Doctor House.

Think about it.

 

[smeghead25]

Anyone know of Alf Stewart?
I probably shouldnt even talk about that guy here...

Hehe, "Oi, Alyx ya b****, come to my, er, f***in' rape dungeon." My God, if that was the first thing to come out of Mr. Freeman's mouth I would probably die laughing.

I reckon Master Chief would look exactly like a generic marine. It'd be weird in a cool way for Chief to take his helmet off just to look like everyone else walking around him

 

[Jenkins]

Gordan Freeman should speak only in rhyme. And sound like a pirate.

a butt pirate



Gordon freeman IS the master chief.

 

[Timmibal]

Master Chief looks like a paler Default John Shepard from Mass Effect.

Dammit, I was going to say that!

Commander Shepard = Master Chief with a promotion.

 

[pulse2]

Chances are, the chief is bald or looks something like a paler version of Fenix.

 

[Distorted Stu]

I always imagined Feeman to have a really thick Scotish accent.
As for Mastercheif, he probz looks like some generic milatary guy. Short hair & a frown.

I'm hoping that that is what they want you to think, then he pulls off his helmet and looks deformed like Darth Vader. I'd relate to him more than I would if he was just another Marcus Fenix or Chris Redfield.

 

[Ampersand]

He's just an average looking middle aged dude. He was described pretty well in the first book. However before I read that I kinda hoped he'd turn out to be a gorilla.

 

[thahat]

Chief takes off the helmet, cracks a beer and says "Hail to the king, baby."

after which he kicks a grunt-field goal over the pillar of autumn XD

 

[moretimethansense]

I always expected the Master Chief and for that matter ALL spartans to be Human/Elite mashups as in him having many Elite features like a split jaw,
unfortunatly the books and non main games have jossed that thory.

Or that XD

 

[Littaly]

Slightly off topic here, but still.

Master Chief would have been so much more likable if he was a mute. I guess he partially is one of those "fill in the character yourself" type of protagonist, Gordon Freeman style. But since he speaks that kind of turns him from a blank slate to a very bland character

Okay, now back to topic. Gordon Freeman speaks with an accent. Preferably British, but hints of an Australian accent would work too.

That's because Spartans were physically superior children who were kidnapped and then put through a series of physical enhancements. All the IIs are at least 7 feet. Besides, he's kind of shrimpy compared to some other Spartans like Jorge.

 

[FallenJellyDoughnut]

Gordon Freeman sounds like Justin Bieber and Master Chief really is Doomguy.

I could totally get behind Master Chief being Doomguy.
