My point is, is that someone added the cyborg crap > -----unless bungie specifically stated that the Marines are > cyborgs. but who cares really?????? Marines are da bomb and no > other armed forces are better than the Marines. :P Well, You played a cyborg in marathon, and were perfectly competent. A cyborg is a creature that has organic and robotic components flawlessly melded together to form a new being. Cyborgs can have human braines inside them, its not as if they are mindless robots. Depending on the robot/human ratio, cyborgs can have regular feelings, reactions, and emotions that regular people do. They arent robots. It really depends. The halo cyborgs might only have armor plating, some enhanced robotic muscles to replace weaker human ones, and maybe some computer/brain atachments to allow the cyborg to map things out better. Like, maybe some built in nigh vision gogles, or a radar that hooks up directly to your brain. So, cyborgs can be like beefed up humans, and can think and react the same way humans do, if not better. Anyways, its pretty much bin confirmed that the guys in the movie were cyborgs. And I'm still sticking to the marathon viewpoint, where the cyborgs were the marines, and the marines were the cyborgs. I think its the same in halo.
