User blog:The--Red--Devil/Why Price should have died, not Soap.

I was really dissapointed that Soap had died in MW3 but felt it was a bad idea not just that they killed him off but also in the way he died. Here are my reasons why he should not have died:

1. History is written by the victor:

They always go on about how one man can change the world without the need of entire nations. So which character has had the greatest impact on the world? Soap. He stopped the Nukes destroying NY and the East coast of the US, he killed Zakhaev, killed Shepherd and SHOULD have killed Makarov making it so he really did have this huge impact on history. The fact that they ended it without Soap throwing the final punch was stupid.

2. Sequels: With Soap buried with his M1911 and his Mohawk gone forever the MW series is quite fucked. Price is old and now can't really do much considering he is a war criminal but Soap could have got out of trouble and still been at the right age that a game with him as the Captain Price nd taking control of the situation could have happened. Don't get me wrong, I love MW3 and think it ended it nicely bar Soap dying, but there is so much more that could be done with it. Look at Metal Gear Solid that looked finished but Snake came back,a bit older.

3. The way he died: He survived being stabbed and pulling a knife out of his chest and throwing it at a pensioner, numerous helicopter crashes, most of world war 3, the enire US military hunting him down, a two man assault into a Russian base and thousands of pissed off Militia men all gunning for his arse but he was killed by comedies oldest slapstick laugh: Falling out of a window. Personally I think that if you're going to kill your main character then make it bloody cinematic!!!! He and Yuri should have assaulted the hotel Lustig and Yuri should have been caught by Makarov, a fight ensues to which Makarov wins. Yuri is about to be executed when who runs in and takes the bullet for him...you guessed it, MacTavish. Having him fall out a window is like something from Mr. Bean except worse, and very few things are any worse than Mr. Bean, Adolf Hitler and syphilis being two.
