Ahhh, but you forget, THAT was in the alternate "M2 Universe," the one that was changed due to Durandal and you (the marine) screwing around with different realities. I don't remember Tycho being destroyed in the "correct" ending universe in infinity.

Hmm, well that's what I thought, unless the people who made mark IV cyborgs figured out a way to engineer out things like conscience (since the marine has a computer-chip brain, I guess that's very possible)
