That is incorrect.  The Game Boy Poket still had that problem with being in direct sunlight to play.  The Game Boy Light was the very first game boy to have a backlit screen which was very similar to a light on a digital wrist watch.  But it was never released in the US because consumers wanted the Game Boy color more than the Game Boy Light.  Here's where I got the information.

Fact or crap: Origionally, the actor who played C-3po in Star Wars didn't want the part of a robot because he thought they were mindless drones.

Fact actually.  Here is a quote from the site where I got my information.
Quote
Daniels revealed that initially he did not agree to be cast as a robot he imagined to be just a mindless box on legs, as was the stereotypical robots in many of the science fictions of the time. He changed his mind after reading 3PO's part of the script and seeing a concept painting by Ralph McQuarrie, understanding this robot had a personality.

Okay, that was a little unfair, Cyberlizard.  You made a question that only F-14 could answer and that is unfair to the rest of us.  Please, refrain from doing so in the future.

This question IS for everyone.  I don't remember saying it was JUST for him.

No offense meant, but poke has a point. F-14's computer playing habbits are not part of common knowledge or something one could research at google or so (I suppose he may have mentioned it in some message before). Nevertheless it is clearly a question easiest to answer for him and with it being formulated as:
Quote
You play as an elite in Halo 2.
you clearly meant it to be for him. Again, no offense meant or taken, but this is not the kind of questions which make a game for everyone.

:bang  :bang  I guess I sort of misstyped.  I'll Redo the question:  In Halo 2.  A player not only plays as the Master Chief in Campaign but also an elite.  I'll give everyone enough time to answer the question.

Quote
WHAT USE AM I?. I CAN NO LONGER CAMAND SHIPS, LEAD TROOPS IN TO BATTLE.


THE PROPHET OF TRUTH gave this elite the honor to be the arbitor. a well respected warrior of the covenent.

Quote
NOT AS YOU ARE NO, BUT BECOME THE ARBITOR AND YOU'LL BE SENT LOOSE AGAINST THIS HARRICY WITH OUR BLESSING


so for the sake of the question the answer is the arbitor

F-14: incorrect

TITANOSAUR: correct

You play a good chunk of the game as the former elite commander the Arbiter.

Fact I think. At least I read about "Star Beast", not so about "Star memory". My guess is that there may have been debate about such a title as well. I never watched this movie.
