: And if he became a battleroid in 2194, that would make him...
A convenience store? (711 years between 2194 and 2905).
We can call the Player roughly the same age for Marathon 1, and 2/Infinity because he was in stasis for the intervening time, and Eternal and any other scenario beginning right at the end of M2 or Infinity. He most likely came out of statis when Marathon reached Tau Ceti, making him at LEAST 7 years old, subjective time (ST). If he was in fact one of the Battleroids from Icarcus/Thermopylae, then that would make him at most 285 years old ST, plus however old he was when he became a Battleroid (most likely around 20, given standard soldier ages). Most likely, however, he had been in stasis for most of the time between the war of Icarus and Thermopylae, bringing his subjective age down much lower.
Objectively, given that he became a Battleroid in 2194 (Icarus and Thermopylae) and was, lets say 20 when he died, that would make him around 620 years old, objectively, at the attack on the Marathon; 637 in M2/Infinity; and 731 in Eternal.
So, what are we all gonna do for our favorite cyborg's 777th birthday in 2951?
