Well, Im agreeing with mark on this one. Anyways, who said the halo cyborgs were mjolners? They certainly look nothing at all like the mjolners from marathon. Thus, if this is a new model of cyborg, humans wouldn't be mad at them, because they didn't do anything. Besides, with ALL of the new screenshots, we have yet to see a "marine" if cyborgs and marines arent interchangeable. I mean, in all of those new screenshots, the only humans we have seen were cyborgs. They were interchangeable in marathon, so I don't see why there should be any reason to change now. This is just a hunch, I can't back this up, but I think the halo cyborgs are more human than we think. I think that they probably share the same emotions, thoughts and feelings that regular humans do, and that the only difference is they have better muscles, some better armor, some cool handy dandy intergrated gadgets, some artificial lungs, maybe some form of energy provider that replaces the need for a digestive system, ect... But I think other than the physical differences, they are perfectly human. Maybe volenteers? who knows. maybe the cyborgs have replaced what we know as the marine, and are now the human equivilant of a grunt.I do agree that the captains and higher ranking officers probably arent cyborgs...
