Last week my two year old son looked up at a Halo poster I'd created for my games room (actually a nice panoramic concept art pic from the bungie website that I had blown up and printed over 3 x A1 posters) pointed and said "Master Chief".

I was so proud...

However, I have 2 questions...

1) Is it wrong I should be pleased by this?

2) Should I now begin trying to teach him other useful words like Spartan, Prophet and Scarab now that I'm going to be devoting a little bit of time to Halo Wars?

Why would it be bad?

I say, nice job...

1)Still an adolescent here,but i don't think there's anything wrong with being pleased that your son probably has the same interests as you(games).

2) You probably should teach him more important words first.(And please do try to keep him from becoming another annoying xbox-live kid)

Yes teach him what to do incase of a flood attack...

No but seriously... He will like Halo anyways...

Teach him to play HaloWars :D

lol, 1. dont try to make video games at the center of his life, let him discover them and dont let him be by games like halo till hes 10 why? because it actually *** up little kids minds, a prime example is this 5 year old boy at my school that does nothing but mumble and talk about video games(but there could many other factors to why this is true, abuse, etc etc)

2. Hey its your child but people will be looking funny at you and your son in the park when he starts screaming "theres scarab!" when theres bee floating around...lol

Oh ya dont take my advice

I'm not intending to push the gaming front - to be honest I'd like him to do sport and other healthy outdoor pursuits as his major recreation, and definitely not before the age of 5 - that's just weird! His vocab is already huge, and I was kinda joking about the extra Halo Wars Vocab! I was just impressed that he'd picked up "Master Chief" from only hearing me say it a few times (not an actual effort to teach it to him, just explaining that the picture was not actually "Daddy"! But - hey - Daddy=Master Chief - compliments just don't come much bigger to the halo fan!

Enjoy it while it lasts, in a few years your son will be scowling when you mention "Halo" and will be keen to remind you "but that's game's almost as ancient as you, dad".

Prop him on top of your xbox and make him an xbox mascot.

I'd probably try and teach him a language though.

I'm sorry prophet of pain but children don't develop the ability to have fun until they are at least 4 years old, sometimes younger for girls. If you ever see them smile or laugh before that time it's probably just gas and you need to smack them gently on the back with the palm of your hand until they poop. When he looked at the halo wars poster and then called you master chief he was probably mocking you because children are cruel at that age.

umm thats why babies laugh and if you have a brain you have all the senses...so you could laugh....the brain expands, it doesnt develop new sections of the brain.

Thanks Peterpot for briefly bringing me down (although I didn't agree with your 4 year old comment)

Thanks Iraqiunit for confirming that he can have fun at 2. I was fairly sure he could! If it wasn't possible then there would be no incentive for me to play with him all day when he's sick. I could just stick him in a broom cupboard because he wouldn't know any different. I am very aware that he can NOT have fun, because then he cries a lot, says "no" repeatedly and generally makes my life difficult.

He still might have been mocking me though!

Let him watch you play halo wars and later on help you build your armies (ask him what you should build etc) and it will provide bonding time.
