Well, my PAX chances have brightened up considerably. A private dentist claims he can pull all four of my wisdoms under full sedation for 1200$ or less. Which is a fuckton cheaper than the other (corporate?) dentist office that was quoting 2200$.

It'd be nice to go to a PAX for once with spending money and/or not just having gotten out of the hospital and not feeling well enough to eat more than McDonalds the entire stay :p

Does he wear a black trench coat and operate out of the alley behind Burger King?

If so, tell him Josh sent you, and he'll give you a 10% discount.

He's also a fantastic small claims lawyer.

He's got an MD, so I think he's trustworthy.

He's also got real rolexes for 30$. One stop shop for all my needs.

The MM hickups were to be expected, completely changing hands on something that cant exactly go down for the day for 'maintenance' is a challenge.

Looking forward to seeing what changes 343 makes in the future.

Okay, any HaloGAF want to offer some advice?.

Im currently making a forge map for Slayer/CTF/Assault.

I want both 1 flag and 2 flag variants but im having a few issues.

I want 1 flag gametypes to always spawn the flag in blue base and switch teams to attack and defend, however its currently spawning on the Flag Capture plate at red base.

Im new to the whole label mechanic any explanation would be great.

Hey, I've had this wireless mic for a couple of months now and it's fine! Plus, the charging time on it is insane! 1 hour of charging is like 2 hours.

insert my wireless mic breaking next time I use it

I hope they add in an algorithm that matches quitters with quitters and AFK'ers with AFK'ers.

Red always starts defense.
Blue always starts offense.

Just how it is.

Since everyone seems to be talking of mics, can anyone recommend me a nice headphone/mic combination? I want a nice set that I can watch movies with/listen to music/play games, but don't want to have to rig some sort of mic underneath it to hear and tlak to people.

I have the turtlebeach X4's and a friend has the X41's their both good but for a similar price you would be best going with the Astro A40's

For a fantastic sound and relatively cheap headphone pair I would get the ATH-M50s (but only if you have an amp)

For mics do NOT get a gaming headphone set. Get a good pair of headphones and wear the MS stock mic around your neck.

Any reason for this? i have the x4's and iv noticed nothing but above standard voice chat coming in and out of the headset. its more clear, louder and has much more pitch range.

That's only because you are hearing it through drivers that aren't terrible, which the MS mic are. You will not be getting better out because that is a software limitation.
For what you pay for a gaming headset you can get a cheaper entry-level set that gives much much better sound.

Isaac has some new stuff up

Not just the worst mics, Microsoft are pretty shoddy when it comes to gaming hardware full stop. My xbox currently overheats 10 minuites into a game, I have only been playing Saints Row recently but I doubt its just isolated to that. Anyone know how to fix 2 red lights?

/bitter


So what's happening with Reach, are the servers down or are there like random bugs?

I actually fixed my 2 red lights but I'd suggest using your warranty with MS before doing anything yourself. Check PM's.

Can you link his site again? I forgot it.

My problem with video game concept art is it always looks way better than the actual game does lol.

Matchamking is fine. Credits, Armory, Challenges, are not. You can still cleanse. You just won't get paid to do it.

It's too bad that this art direction for Brutes never really came across in the games because this guy looks badass as can be:
