According to the Nolan Group, Microsoft and their Xbox 360 team proposed customising Jorge’s X-Lite X-802, the make over re-creating the main character from Halo 3 ODST (Orbital Drop Shock Trooper).

Halo is one of the most popular games ever released for the Xbox 360, pervaded by heroism and bravery – “virtues Jorge perfectly embodies” Nolan say.
