I didn't cry when Dom died, not because it wasn't sad (because it was) and not because I didn't like him (because I did)... I didn't cry because he didn't have to do it.

Dom's wife subplot is something I despised because they overdone it in GoW 2, so Dom died because of the subplot I didn't like. The only reason he didn't just jump out of the truck was because he wanted to die to be with his wife... the woman who had about two lines of dialogue in the entire series. If we knew her better, maybe I'd be sad (and I didn't cry when she died in GoW 2). I'll say one thing for Dom though, at least you can tell the difference between a Dom angry because of grief and Dom angry because there is about fifty million Locust in the way... unlike Marcus.

If Master Chief died, depending on how they done it, I wouldn't be bothered. John has a personality in the books, but in the games he's a brick on legs with an incredibly sexy voice.
