Just got back from VGL Paris '10 :D But no Halo this year =( But I got Tommy to promise me some Halo (and some Pokémon too :D) next year, I'll be back for sure :D :D

As for those of you in or near Seattle, they'll be there next month premiering Halo Reach's OST with Marty ;-)

edit: got home just in time for the BWU, reading now

If you look closely, you can see the Legendary difficulty logo on Johnson's mug.

Noble Six is pointing up at the mistletoe and holding the Rookie... bow chicka bow wow.

And it looks like Usze ‘Taham on the far left, the 4th person co-op Elite from Halo 3, is holding a plasma grenade. Is he going to kill them all?!?
edit: oh it's for decorating the tree heh.

LMAO. I just got an Extermination in Slayer on Pinnacle. Used the pistol for the first kill (jetpacker) and to weaken another, tossed a grenade to kill the second and weaken three and four. Then took out the AR and picked off the third guy before meleeing the last. :lol

There should be some kind of 'Garage sale' achievement or bonus for using literally every offensive weapon in your arsenal within the span of like 5 seconds. :lol

I hope a lot of people realize that this isn't just the AR. It includes the Needler too.

That should be pretty easy if you play a couple of games of Invasion.

Great, so that means even more people picking the Worst Halo Experience Ever, also known as Elite Slayer w/ Armor Lock.

Just grand.

Halsey never had a husband, but I think that's Keyes.
Click to expand...
Oh really?

Miranda Keyes, born Miranda Halsey, was a Lieutenant Commander in the UNSC Navy. Keyes served as the commanding officer of both the UNSC In Amber Clad as well as the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn and was the commander of the Human expedition force to Installation 00 in late 2552. She was the daughter of the late Captain Jacob Keyes and Doctor Catherine Elizabeth Halsey.

I missed the entirety of the Mr. Big Picture Experience. Is there some sort of ASCII version? Is there a "HaloGAF: Unedited, Uncut, Unapologetic" alterna-thread that I should be subscribing to for this sort of thing?

Oh and Happy Vacation Times Student Types...even if you're playing COD:BO.

Great. Nightfall is broken for me where if I start from the beginning and try to skip the cutscene, it just goes back and replays it over and over again. If I watch it, it goes back to the cutscene.

Jesus christ, I think I die more due to teammates hitting me than I to the enemy hitting me.

The worst part about it, is the enemy gets credit.

Eh, it was just some questionable dispensing of shock gel upon some ripe recruits for the spartan II program.

Are Halo GAF nights still Fridays? Havent been able to really game in awhile so im kinda out of the loop.
Click to expand...

They're Saturday nights usually...not that I've ever had the free time to join one.

Friday night is reserved for posting pictures that will offend members of Ghaleon's family and scar Dax's fragile psyche.

This kid goes into an MLG match and then proceeds to commit suicide 37 times.




Just sad...

And why does the game allow this kind of stuff? There should be an instaboot after a few suicides.

Nightfall on Legendary is ridiculous. Just had a 30-minute game where I got the last wave of guys dropped off by drop ships when the smugglers were, with the ordnance. And one Elite chases me down back to where the mules were, absorbs a full clip of DMR fire and a sniper round without dropping shields, and kills me with a plasma rifle from about 25 yards away - when I had full health.

I still don't like how Legendary is balanced in Reach. Elites are over-buffed, and everyone deals too much damage. Rather than facing difficult, smart enemies I feel fragile. It reminds me of how Halo 2 was balanced, rather than Halo 3.

Oh, and that postcard is pretty amazing. Spent a while earlier just staring at it, every character and detail, reminiscing about the good times this universe and cast has provided the past 10 years. Thanks Bungie.

Man, I wish Bungie would do a title update for the warthog controls alone. I mean, I like the way most of the vehicles control in this game, but the warthog controls need to be more grounded; they're too floaty as is. I'm afraid to do any of the moves I could do in the Halo 3 warthog in Reach for fear that I'll flip the warthog over. I feel like a pebble could cause the 'hog in Reach to flip over.

If only one thing gets fixed in a title update, it'd be this.

Legendary in Reach is balanced worse that Halo 2 was.

You can skip that entire part. That's what I did.

edit:

Oh sweet. Rocket Race followed by Rocket Race... Fucking Multi Team. 3 people quit already including my partner. Guess I'll just stay idle hidden in one of the big structures on Boneyard. I hate this shit.
