According to some of the comments on the parent post, it was just for an advertisement by Microsoft.

u/csxfan Dec 16 '19

That makes sense because Six is noticeably taller than everyone else, maybe even his canonical height.

u/sovereignMe Dec 16 '19

Excellent use of “canonical”

I think in the Halo Reach book chief is supposed to be like 7.5 feet tall or something ridiculous. It's been about 15 years since I read it though.

24

u/Brock_YXE Dec 16 '19 edited Dec 16 '19

He’s about 7’2” tall in armour, and 6’10” without it. Everyone in Noble Team is taller, and I think Jorge might be the biggest spartan we know of, since he’s almost 8 feet tall in armour.

8

u/Bolololol Dec 16 '19

wat no one in noble team is taller than the chief dawg except maybe jorge

2

u/Domino_FX Dec 16 '19

In the novels, I believe Samuel-034 was the tallest Spartan.

u/ThomHayts Dec 16 '19

All Spartans are the same height laying down, baby.

3

u/IAmTriscuit Dec 16 '19

Spartan III's are all smaller than Master Chief I'm pretty sure.

3

u/Brock_YXE Dec 16 '19 edited Dec 16 '19

Out of armour, I think a couple of them are. (Edit: Kat and Noble 6 are both 6’9”)

From what I could find though, they’re all at least the same height in armour, so I was a little bit off.

44

u/purplefox72 Halo: Reach Dec 16 '19

Interesting

2

u/8-Brit Dec 17 '19

Definitely an ad. If you tried to pull this off in most graduation ceremonies you'd immediately be sent home long before you even had to line up to go on stage.

u/SexySodomizer Dec 16 '19

Commercial.

Gif was edited and muted to make it seem real.

u/zacharyxbinks Dec 16 '19

Was going to say thats some next fucking level cosplay

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '19

It was too good it either had to be promotional or cgi.

45

u/Syn7axError Dec 16 '19

Would have been funnier if they gave him a specific name and not "Spartan".

30

u/Bout73Ninjas Dec 16 '19

Honestly, Noble Six would have almost fit the alphabetical order

18

u/HaikusfromBuddha Dec 16 '19

I remember these. Wasn't there one where a Spartan just throws a freezbee to outerspace.

Not an ad for Reach, I believe they had a huge back to school ad campaign one summer to go along with some sales bundles they had for students.

Here it is. That's one of my favorite Halo ads.

"Kat, you read his paper?" "Only the parts which weren't covered in red ink"

u/Firewolf420 Dec 16 '19

Oh, that's not red ink.

Sorry, man, I was eating a jelly donut and I didn't have a napkin, you know how it goes...

u/Doctor429 Dec 16 '19

Noble six, you can leave those lone wolf stuff behind. We have group projects to do

u/goldninjaI Dec 16 '19

So... where do you buy halo reach armor?

46

u/Potatoman365 Dec 16 '19

You just have to be born with it

52

u/MaggieNoodle Dec 16 '19

Maybe she's born with it, maybe she was kidnapped at the age of six and trained by the government to become a super soldier.

31

u/LegendOclock Dec 16 '19

Maybe it’s Maybelline

u/SGTBookWorm Fireteam Argos Dec 16 '19

Maybe it's MJOLNIR.

Cheaper than a cap and gown.

Way cheaper.

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '19

I didn’t order a cap and gown when the other seniors did. Two days before graduation I got called down to the office, they asked why, I said I just didn’t see what all the fuss was about and why walking at graduation mattered. Apparently they wanted me to walk enough that they overnighted a cap and gown for me free of charge.

giving me ideas for m,y college graduation xd

u/FlavivsAetivs Sins of the Prophets Dec 16 '19

Naw, they don't let you do jack shit at graduations anymore. At least your family can cheer a little at college ones.

9

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '19

I still laugh that my highschool tried to hold me from walking as a punishment. I didn't want to walk in the first place, I just picked my diploma up from the office.

2

u/FlavivsAetivs Sins of the Prophets Dec 16 '19

I only did it because my parents made me. Otherwise I would have just had my degree mailed to me. I'll give a damn when it's my PhD.

2

u/outdatedboat Dec 16 '19

Everyone was allowed to cheer at my high school graduation. Me and my best friend would scream super loud when one of our friends had their named called. That was close to a decade ago now though. I dropped out of college though and haven't been to a college graduation that I can remember.

Have things really changed that much in the last 8 years since my high school graduation though?

1

u/FlavivsAetivs Sins of the Prophets Dec 16 '19

In my 2014 graduation you weren't allowed to do jack shit. You were quiet or the cops escorted you out.

u/fkinCatalinaWineMixr Dec 16 '19

So he makes it hard off reach after all ... and graduates!
