I like the detailed stuff around the Spartan projects, like all the controversy and failures. Not just pure heroism and victory.

I hate to sound like a fanboy, like you, but how is Element Zero more "magical" than i.e. the alloy the Forerunners use? [/quote] I love how the designers of ME and Halo actually went and found or created a hypothetical explanation for the stuff that happens in there universes, instead just saying"This is what happens and that is it" like Star Wars or "My way overpowered 800 gigaton bomb goes boom!" like Stargate (no offense to Stargate, it s a pretty interesting universe).
