Suicide Bombing Makes Sick Sense in Halo 3

Kamikaze pilots are not the same as terrorists. Terrorists, as the name suggests, mean to inflict psychological damage -- terror -- to the population, including civilians. They do this by committing the most atrocious thing possible. Kamikazes, as far as I know, are soldiers who have decided to give their lives in combat.<p>Giving up your own life in combat is not the same as tossing a bomb into a crowded supermarket when not under any immediate danger.

Bah, dying in games is not any worse than losing a point in a sport, or chess. Kasparov sent a "suicide pawn" to be massacred by the "enemy queen". It has really nothing to do with the individual act of suicide bombing.<p>The interesting thing about his strategy is that it might increase his chance of survival. He is playing a variant of Tit for Tat. If other skilled players knew that he was doing this, they would actively avoid him. Are there stats in Halo for "Kills from beyond the grave"? If so, he would benefit from making as many people as possible aware of the strategy. In theory, at least.

Is that one of those games that auto-aims for you?<p>Good luck against a seasoned Quake player (if they dare to enable that option). XD
