My roommate has it so we've been playing it a lot. Single player is ok so far. He's playing it on legendary so it's really tough.

Multiplayer was a little tricky to set up, especially games with just friends. It's weird but you just have to get used to it. Multiplayer is freaking awesome. Ninjanaut is sweet. One person is a ninja who is camoflauged and super fast. He has to go around and kill people without being killed. If he gets killed, the person who killed him is the new Ninjanaut. Kinda hard but really fun with plasma nades as a ninja.

Played it tonite. Honestly, wasn't impressed. Seems like every other Quake,Doom,Painkiller,Unreal FPS killer. I tried taking it in those senses, but all I kept thinking was "Okay, I'm shooting the dude in the face or body and he's not dying." Guess I really can't get into those games, but honestly just seems like every other FPS shooter. Still don't see the big whop behind the game. It has an okay story line, unique I'll give it that, but gameplay wise, very shitty.

I agree, but you know what made me get it? For the simple fact that people will still be playing this online for the next 5 years. Like i said, the multiplayer is a good time.

Multiplayer is hands down the easiest and quickest form of getting into a match soundly. That ontop of technical(but yeah clusterfuckish) gameplay and no lag with half a million people on their servers and a website with stats and videos and all that shit is why people buy it.

SP is to call it a full game, imo.

Im enjoying the sp so far, some of the sfx are a bit out of place though. The old assault rifle sounds good but the firing sounds far too low, not unusual to be firing it and have the firing sound be completly drowned out by ai chatter.

Yet to run into the brute shotgun or the spartan laser.

sp is growing on me but im just waiting for the last level.


mp though is a blast and its so familiar, first game in top score rock:

and played the like partners team death match with one of my friends with the vip thing which was pretty awesome.


only thing is i want to play on bloodglutch (sp?) which isnt in the game cuss:


guess they will make it a downloadable content.



more than anything though i want the split ship multiplayer level from halo 1

im using the gun on the back of the warthog

is your xbox fucked or not jibbs? Nice pics btw

upped 4 pics from the campaign here: (first level)

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/gerald.marley/halo/

check out the fucked up looking bird pic. eek:


Its strange how dumbed down the game looks graphically, those screens dont give a good representation of the game as its ragged as hell around the edges. Also anyone remember the e3 2k6 trailer showing master chief and the massive structure the covenant uncovered? That sequence is in game and looks really castrated graphically despite bungie saying the trailer represented in game graphics. annoy:

Im enjoying the game though, just find it weird that the final game in the series really doesn't seem to deliver close to what they showed in the trailers.

went to futureshop and exchanged it for a new one, its all good now

one week from now. "Fucking 360 took a shit on me!"

my roomate just got it. I have never played halo on an xbox so it took a little adjusting too. Ripping up a gun turret and walking around with it is quite possibly the most satisfying feeling in the world.

It's not out for PC is it?

how dco you take pictures/replays

Go to the theater, when your watching the film hit x to screen shot. than upload them to bungies website and save them to the PC

lol it took me and my friends like 5 and something hours...

[quote="TGB!":e4f72]Maybe it's because I never played the first two, but this game seems kinda. . .boring. The graphics are balls to the wall, and killing stuff is fun - but about the only time I've died is being run over by a chopper. Everything else is easy mode.

PS - Wheres the power core on the second fucking scarab?[/quote:e4f72]
what mode are you playing it on? if you are playing it on easy or normal then yes that explains why you aren't dying.

you take out his legs then go to the ass end and shoot the red circle then it opens up the power suply

is this 4 the Isle of Goatse mission?

ahhh dude this game gets amazing, just got upto the part where you can fly those hover ship things, and been playing 4p coop before that with my friends round.


anyone having problems uploading the pohotos to bungie? is it normally delayed

Amazing halo 3 review

http://www.techpepper.com/local-news-re ... es-review/


look at how he holds the pad biggrin:

Lol it looks like the lady was pissed she had to play a game that has guns lol

I find it amazing she didn't know it had guns when the assault rifles clearly visible, did she think it was a coffee machine or something? Mighta thought the object was to make the fastest cup of coffee. If she had the needler probably woulda thought it was a feather duster and she ahd to tickle the opponent to death.

lmao...omg the youth of tomorrow will be too violent.

No, and probably will not be for about 3 years

sigh....I want a 360 but I am not getting shit from my job, and I don't have a TV... oOo:

[quote="TGB!":2d0d9]This final level is hands down one of the most annoying levels in any game in the history of gamedom.[/quote:2d0d9]

from what ive been reading that MS has lost the rights to Bungie but they still own the rights to the Halo name. so you ever know bungie may make games for different platfroms. which i wont is not the case.

Where did you read that at?

Its been doing he rounds for a few days that news, if the rumours correct theres an announcement on the 5th or 6th of this month.

Also i have to love the broken save feature in this game, im on mission seven and saved it a few days back, went to play last night and was back at the second scarab battle. Complete that save it back into mission 7 and today i reload and im back at the scarab battle.

I suppose making a proper save function wasn't high on thier list of shit to do.
