Glad they include pictures, because I'd be skeptical spending a night with my GF at this guy's place. http://www.airbnb.com/rooms/75668 Might go to ComicCon next year.

Well I certainly didn't fill up karl's hard drive in a brilliant attempt to get him to leave this forum if that's what you're getting at.

You can't be serious.
Ah yes, thanks for the reminder(I even remember what missions specifically).
Here's something fun to do at the start of "Outskirts" co-op. Have one dude on the ground fighting like he normally would. Then have the other player grab the sniper from Johnson and get up on the buildings as if they were getting the hidden sword, but yet staying in the general area of the courtyard. Buggers come over the rooftops, and one player has them partially eliminated before they even reach there. Hunters are easily countered by the turret, but it's even more fun to have the ground player distract, while the upper player snipes them in the back. Jackals in the courtyard? No problem. Then you can even work your way up through sniper alley, and it confuses the hell out of the Jackals, because they don't know who to shoot first.
There's no encounter in any Halo campaign that has captured that sense of "co-operative, but yet still solo" quite like that has. Halo 3 has a few areas that would seem pretty good, but for the most part they're okay. One that comes close is the area on "The Ark" with the two AA Wraiths, the 2 turret towers, and the normal Wraith. Having one player go solo on foot and the other player driving a Mongoose with a rocket ODST is incredibly fun.
As I said in the post that got this all going the opening encounter on "The Covenant" is a really fun one too. I'll try to think of more areas that would accomodate the style of gameplay I'm describing.
I'm hoping Spartan Ops can fill my want for a co-op experience while still being a relatively lonesome gunner. My playstyle in Borderlands is just that(I tend to play Mordecai and snipe the enemies from afar while my buddies go up and fight a bit closer). From what specializations sound like, it might just be what I'm asking for. Here's to hoping that the maps are designed to accomodate the player who just wants to gain an upper position and shoot stuff.
Now I'm out. Tawpgun described my situation very well. 20GB HDD + spending money on college and apartment(
which to Elzar, Xand and co. complaining about my lag, I'll have a bit faster of Internet starting Aug. 1
wat?

Dang, you guys are paranoid.
I was a Peace Corps volunteer, and when I finished my service my soon-to-be-wife and I traveled across the US, staying with friends, friends of friends, and in random places that turned up for whatever reason. 8 weeks, 12,000 miles, and we didn't pay for a hotel room ONCE. (We did pay for a Golden Eagle pass, which allowed us to camp for free in a lot of national parks, but that didn't really become useful until we got west of the Rockies.)
People are (by and large) nice. Treat them well, they'll treat you well. I'm amazed this service hasn't popped up before now.
Hmm.. but Hotels don't mind if I roll up drunk and rowdy at 3am.. these people probably just wouldn't open the door...
Had some buddies when we worked out west last summer use this website for the same thing it sounds, but usually free!

Preview of the HaloGAF PAX meetup.
In general, I agree. But I'll still do the hotel thing.
Have long have you been on HaloGAF now?
lol
(You joke, but in point of fact, every single GAFfer I've ever met, face to face, has been a reasonable human being.
(Even EazyB. Even Ram.)
Jokingly mentioned this would be our honeymoon: a cuddleparty, sleeping in someone's online bed and breakfast, comic con and a sonic the hedgehog furry convention.
Apparently it isn't funny. This bruise will take awhile to heal.
No one buys 20gb at this point. But some of us got them at/near launch and never wanted to pay all that money for a new console when it wasn't needed. Same with the HD.
also, LOL $55
Find me an old, 250 gig XBOX 360 hard drive and I will GLADLY get it. Refurbished gamestop ones can be dodgy, and im not sure how much I trust a used one.
Even Frankie??
I kid, Frankie was pretty slick on the rooster teeth podcast. Quantum pantie skidmarks..... lol

Really nice dude, even when he's barfing his lungs out.
Yay!
Off topic, but something interesting just happened. I used to make my games under a different company name, and released a game under that that used a launcher program that could check for any updates I issue. Sometime in 2007 the billing got screwed up on the domain and the Canadian company I had used to register it with basically took the domain from me and used it as a spam park domain, and the cross-country issue made it unafforable to persue legal channels at the time.
So what I just did was have every site owner that'd help run scripts to remove all links to the domain. The spammers finally let go, and now I control the domain again. Now I technically have the ability to issue an update to a 7 year old game :lol
Only if you skip out on your bill. I hear that works pretty well.

It was amazing, loved it. Will gomback for more before I leave. Maybe try a 7?

So true. Even literally.Bad joke.

Hopefully this surgery corrects all of these issues and I never have to go through that again.

Your first two pics are borked. Did they draw you?
I'd be willing to bet everyone here is a reasonably cool person irl, no matter they're posting style. There's always a few exceptions that really are just dicks and eventually their true personality comes out and they either leave on their own accord or they're 'politely' asked to leave.
The greatest aspect of HaloGAF to me is that not only is there (nearly) every type of personality, nationality, and ethnicity represented here, but everyone is here for the same reason
, and the passion for that something will always outlast any short-lived arguments, disagreements or outright forum bro-battles. I've only been posting here for a year and a half, and I can tell our regulars are 2 legit 2 quit. It's nice to see the ancients just as active as *some* of our FNG's
.
I'd buy any one of you assholes a beer and I hardly know any of you. #wishiwasgoingtopax

I may say spew a lot of BS, but see how awesome thrusters are! PV is a waste of an AA for more skilled players, especially considering the motion tracker armor mods you can use.
Bad joke.

Nope, that was the lady friend. They did have some really cool sketches on the wall, including what one that I'm guessing was by the Hajime no Ippo mangaka.
Only if we get to go to cuddle party together.
Straight to liquor then I see.
What game?

Hey Computron, I was still lurking when you were making that badass H4 BR model. Did you ever get it implemented into Halo 2 vista?
Sorry dude, my TV is on its way out and I have to power cycle it every time it decides to shut off in the middle of the game or I would have joined. I ended up having to blindly quit out of the one MP match I started.

I had the model sent to someone before I got to texture it, I don't know where they are at with it, then this happened.

Are we bidding on bonus snuggles from Ghal? There were those that said this day may never come.

Aww dang man, sorry
That must have been frustrating. Well the model looked great from the pics I saw so great job on that.Was that guy in there seriously thinking you were putting a BR into another company's game?
'ITS BUNGIE COPYRIGHT' lol
I hit the calculator to see how much Halo is costing me this year: ~842 dollars. This includes the console, the extra controller, the limited edition, estimated prices of 179.99 and 34.99 for the Tritton headset and limited edition guide respectively, and of course the final sting to the wallet my outrageous state tax.
You might say that is quite a lot, and it's not really. Not when you add on the other five games I'm getting between Oct. and Nov. that aren't Halo (limited editions of those games where applicable). I need to get a real hobby.

All H3 map packs are 400 points except the Mythic II pack which is still 800 points

I started trying to recreate that piece of music in the bts video they showed at the campaign and multiplayer panel. I think I have it down on piano. Maybe I'll do a session on logic or pro-tools.
