Yes, this is relevant. I usually never post threads like this but this was bothering me alot.

I just got done watching the amazing 1993 movie- Demolition Man.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106697/

Did the halo novels come out after this? Because it just seems kinda weird- The similarities that is.


The main Characters name is John Spartan, he is also frozen in a cryotube.

Now, obviously they have very very different plots, but is there any chance this is where chief got his name, or inspiration for the name.

Now I never post threads like this so go easy. OR I MAEK U!

Well, John is a pretty common name, and the idea of cryotubes has been around for a long time. The Spartan part is wierd, and it certainely is a funny coincidence.

Unless there is something in MP3 cause I havn't played that, I really don't know where you got that from. I don't any similarities where it looks like ideas were taken from each game. And most of the ideas from Metriod Prime were taken from the earlier Metroid games.

Every company gets its ideas from somewhere. The ability to effectively create a fun, interactive, challenging, and brilliant storyline by using those ideas is a skill not every company possess.
