| ==Trivia==
| |
| *Titan armor was inspired by Medieval armor layered over tight-fitting suits.<ref>[http://www.polygon.com/2014/3/21/5533684/bungies-destiny-extensive-character-customization '''Polygon''': ''Bungie outlines ambitions for Destiny's extensive character customization'']</ref>
| |
| *The armor worn by the Titans is similar in overall design to the [[Halopedia:MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR powered armor]] worn by [[Halopedia:SPARTAN programs|Spartan supersoldiers]] in the ''Halo'' series. The SPARTAN-II program's creator, [[Halopedia:Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]], considered calling the project "Titan" before settling on the final name.
| |
| *The ''T''-shaped visors of some Titan helmets are reminiscent of the [[wikipedia:Corinthian Helmet|Corinthian-style helmets]] used by the ancient Greeks. Such helmets are strongly associated with Spartan hoplites, both historically and in popular culture.
