  • Thanks for pulling it all together, nicely done. I am saddened by no official space combat confirmation but *fingers crossed Halo: Reach* I will keep hoping! Also, I noted in another interview that Joe Staten could not confirm Peter Dinklage as the 'Ghost' voice, while DeeJ did. That being said, I think this might point at Mr. Dinklage not being the only voice for the AI assistants. Thinking of all the voice talent that has been used for various UNSC Forces in Halo 3 and Reach; I do not expect Destiny to have a significant amount of disposable supporting characters like Halo. I do hope that voices are a customization option of the Ghost.
