Got Voltron banned too, apparently. :(

Ouch. I had to clarify, it was US only.

Best or Worse Halo fanart, help me decide HaloGAF.

Gah, too much Cortana fan art out there.

This doesn't count, but I think it's something Bungie should pick up for inclusion in ODST.

Huh I played campaign for the first time in a year. Tsavo Highway has AR start with BR secondary? Almost like you're prepared for all scenarios. Huh.

I know you're just fraking around.

@ Dani: The first one is definitely the worst. Probably because the bald guy reminds me of Frankie, or was that the artist's intent?:lol

When you combine sexy times and Halo in art - the natural human response is to make things more Frankie-like.

Needs more Mister Chief
Are you saying Mister Chief is sexier than Frankie?

Them's fightin' words!

Well, you quoted me and then said: "It's not going to do Halo 3 release numbers. No game ever will, unless it is the next main Halo game."

So you can understand why I might think that.
Yeah, but everything you said I agreed with, so I just restated my position. :p Voice, Ghal? Are you sick?

Look forward to GAF customs this weekend. I hope my voice has recovered enough to chat by then.

Strep.
 
Dani said:
The art's good, although I'd question the reasoning behind some of the directions. Who would have thought that the Master Chief was really Jim Cramer?

I wonder if the Spartan shot was before or after Jon Stewart let him have it. He has a girl there so it has to have been before, right?
 
Man, the hype surrounding a Master Chief versus Aliens Movie would be insane.

Too bad it would have a 99% possibility of one of the lowest rotten tomatoes scores ever. :lol

Overall, that and the Arbiter one are neat. The others....not so much.

What's to joke about? Given that ODST is an expansion rather than a full-fledged game, and a game that doesn't have you playing as the MC, it's easy to see why it might not do well. Halo Wars gives a very good indication that the direct opposite is true, and that the fanbase of Halo carries over into different genres and games (outside the trilogy).
People didn't buy Halo Wars as much because there are people out there who don't like RTS games. ODST still carries the Halo 3 name in it's title and is still a FPS. It's going to sell well. Hell, even folks who don't have Halo 3 will probably get it because it's reduced price. It'll come with the whole multiplayer component, plus an all new campaign. I'm not expecting Halo 3 number sales, but definitely more than Halo Wars. That's just the way I see it.

Has the price been confirmed any place? With the expansion and all the Multiplayer maps, I expect it to be at least $50, if not more. The maps themselves will drive it up (which is why I dislike that idea, but whatever).

It hasn't been confirmed, but Bungie has said repeatedly that they don't see this as a full priced title. Bungie saying it is different than Microsoft saying it though. =\

If Bungie really wanted they could pay Microsoft to release ODST at a lower price. Enough with the Bungie Defense Force bullshit.

I kno rite, Bungie should just pay big bad ms to keep us fans happy.
 
I don't see why MS/Bungie, whoever, releases the Halo 3: OSDT (with the codes [limited?]), and a Multiplayer Map Pack similar to Halo 2's. Easier to do one whole pack, I guess, but for a consumer like myself, it's driving up the price for half of which I already have on my Xbox.

Bungle, how can i play orbital when i get stuck k thx ><

Cocopjojo is the new king of jerks confirmed
lol nice, Merg. Btw, sent you an invite, but then vhfive and I decided to call it quits. Good games though.
 
so i go have a molar extracted early this morning, spend the day floating 3 feet above the couch and spend the night 'coming down' while night reading 5 (full) pages of classic GAF - thank you guys, i was too doped up to play Halo and this is way better than watching TV :D (ouch, it hurts to smile)

It's pretty well known that microsoft made the original xbox. there isn't as much information available on its predecessor the Xbox360 however.
the first 360 was a Mac Pro (but i'm sure you guys already knew that)

How many Ferrari engineers are Formula One champions?
comparing Bungie employees to Ferrari engineers is one thing, but comparing 50's to Formula One champions, ouch
(yeh, i know you were only pointing out the comparative relationships)
... the other way around, Alonso could be compared to a whiny trash talking 50, and Takuma Sato could be compared to someone who bought their 50
 
How come on Bungie.net on my service record it says I've played 1259 cutom games, but while in the actual game my service record says I've only played a few hundred?

Merguson, this is what happens when you stand too close to a texture.

Hate to be one of those guys Bladed but I'm sure one of the following posts will be that you didn't follow the posting guidelines for Atlas. Good luck! I'll provide some feedback for the map in the Atlas thread when I have a chance.

Ah well, if thats the only reason its not considered, I'll edit it and fill it with all that guff...til then, Imma be a lazy sonnofabitch :lol

Your previous rants were unnecessary and bothersome and I don't expect much from you but this last post is interesting. Someone at Bungie definitely gave it some thought.

Personally, I'm all for a universal Matchmaking AR+BR start combo.

This would be funny if it made sense. Three maps maps that have been out multiple months as compared to a full fledged expansion with three 'new' maps that have yet to be released are not equivalent. Plus I listed this as an example of what Bungle could do. Ahh nothing like interactng with inferior minds during a class of signals and systems.

it counts Forge 'games' as well - every time you float an object you add to the total game count

i have 15,263 games played and i am only a level 32 Major, Grade 4 (where is the roll-eyes smiley?)
