good that they're getting guests on later, from what I've seen this stream's been super boring so far.

 

[Death Metalist]

Wtf just happened? Grunt church choir?

They were worshiping the hologram of a guardian lol. If you were to come from on top you would be able to get a better and clear look at them.

Nah, it's been pretty fun with some interesting stories thrown around although I can totally see someone who doesn't care about Halo would find it boring but then again, seeing Drew and Alexis go through it has been entertaining so far. I should mention that I love the Halo games so, yeah.

 

[Noaloha]

Legobutts is awesome and that's all I care about.

Felix is a legit daily highlight on my Twitter feed. Sadly way too into Destiny, but nobody's perfect.

 

[Archaix]

Halo is still going? I thought this was a short game.

 

[Death Metalist]

Halo is still going? I thought this was a short game.

Short if you play it 4 players co-op on normal. They're playing it on heroic, 2 players. They're on mission 12 out of 15 now.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Which halo are they playing?

 

[Noaloha]

So close to breaking both 50k staff and 100k team!

 

[TheMrPliskin]

Which halo are they playing?

5

 

[maquiladora]

I'm done. I love the guys but this is just too boring. Will watch the archive later to see what happened after.

It's pretty short even on your own, I finished the game solo in 5-6 hours.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Ah alright.

 

[Death Metalist]

It's pretty short even on your own, I finished the game solo in 5-6 hours.

It took me 10 hours in two sittings, solo legendary. Found no skulls but probably 20 intels, replayed it again on easier difficulties for dem skulls.

I was on normal for my run.

 

[- J - D -]

Some people in this thread acting like they're surprised Drew and Alexis are playing Halo. They marathoned Halo games in the last two Extra Life streams. And those were much longer Halo games.

 

[Zaph]

Drew's tempting fate with the new studio talk. Something will go horribly wrong now

 

[Death Metalist]

I was on normal for my run.

That sounds alright. It's definitely no 7 - 8 hour game on normal that's for sure. It's much shorter than that.

 

[stump sock]

this part reminds me of Crysis 3 of all things

 

[Devilgunman]

4 hrs of Halo...... I think I've had enough. I'll be back later tonight.

 

[funkystudent]

So... why does Halo 5 have a bunch of stuff with similar names to stuff in Destiny?


Because every time someone says Guardian or Osiris I get weirded out.

 

[Sakwoff]

Halo's story has ALWAYS been complete gibberish to me.

Dunno, maybe I could make sense of it investing a bunch of effort, but nah... it's just so full to the brim with lore bullshit and stupid mystical babble that my eyes instantly glaze over.

(I actually love playing it, I just can't care about the narrative)

Because these names have always been a part of the Halo universe way, way, way before Destiny.

I was genuinely surprised the game is still going on, everything I'd heard (including people who weren't complaining about it) indicated a real short game. From the looks of it though, that was people playing on normal.

 

[Lunar FC]

How close are they to the end?

 

[def sim]

How close are they to the end?

This is going to be another 2 hours at the pace they're going.

Halo is still going? I thought this was a short game.

It's maybe an hour and a half shorter than the longest halo games. The length is not all that different relative to the others and they've never been very long.

 

[hamchan]

They've previously spent an entire 24 hour stream playing Halo people, what did you expect?

 

[Coonce]

the hype for Drew's pants is real you guys.

 

[def sim]

People are going to get really upset when they go through Halo Wars 2 next year.

 

[Lunar FC]

Halo: Spartan Strike after this right?

 

[jgminto]

Oh, I wasn't expecting Lisa to co-host with Jason, they're so good at streaming together, it's a shame it didn't line up for me. I'll probably watch the archive of it.

 

[Shane86]

Still no Vinny archive? Not that interested in Halo, especially watching others play it

 

[Noaloha]

Austin stream still best stream.

Which is not a knock on other streams, but a bow-down toward Austin's prowess.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

It feels as if they've been playing Halo for longer than seven hours (or whatever it is).

[EDIT - I bought a double edge straight razor in 2010 and I haven't looked back.

I also haven't had to buy any extra razor blades since...2010.]

 

[Noray]

agreed

 

[SomberOwl]

So what have been some highlights/best segments so far?

 

[Gozer the Gozerian]

Some people in this thread acting like they're surprised Drew and Alexis are playing Halo. They marathoned Halo games in the last two Extra Life streams. And those were much longer Halo games.

Actually, they've been marathoning Halo games for the last three Extra Life streams, ever since 2012!

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Mario Maker.

[EDIT - aspirin is the best tasting raw medicine.]

[EDIT 2 - Do not get hemorrhoids. They're bad.

Let's play Halo!]

 

[razgriz417]

damnit i looked away for a second and they both ate it :/

Now awaiting for the gif

 

[Showshank]

 

[TharpDaddy]

They should just really have one person hop out of the tank and take a ghost so that they don't fail state when the tank blows up.

 

[Twin Tails]

Drew is leaving Giant Bomb.

 

[Zaph]

Above isn't true

 

[Noaloha]

Drew is definitely leaving the GB offices at some point soon. Within the next 24 hours.

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

Worf

 

[def sim]

well drew is getting the worf on his face

 

[kAmui-]

damnit i looked away for a second and they both ate it :/

Now awaiting for the gif

Here you go!

 

[SictorVullivan]

Oh my god I would absolutely love Danny and Drew to do another full F1 race.

 

[cilonen]

The last four or five hours of this game haven't looked fun in any way. Having to keep fighting that guy over and over seems really dumb.

 

[TharpDaddy]

They're making the wardens harder than they need to be. Just unload on them with weapons from the front. They go down.

 

[def sim]

The wardens die in three or four hits from power weapons available to them. This is not how the game goes normally.

Talking for the stream and such is a distraction though, so I get why there might be trouble.

 

[Death Metalist]

That's the only worst aspect of the game, this guy is a massive pain on legendary if you don't utilize your buddy A.I to it's fullest, like equipping them with power weapons since they turn infinite ammo when it's in the hands of the buddies if i'm not mistaken.

Yup, also equip the A.I with power weapons.
