Tashi, only a weapon such as the halo 1 pistol could deliver the laughs like that.

That's not even remotely funny. At all.

It is so funny that when I watched it in english class, I replayed that single moment over 10x, even the teacher laughed.

Eh. 5/10 effort. Could be way better.
1. DS9 should be there, not TNG.
2. Replace Pikachu with something Babylon 5 related.
3. Add in Sophie and The West Wing somewhere.
4. Oh, and something having to do with Obama.
 
Completely forgot that tomorrow was the maintenance for Live.

At least it will spare me from more messages from this.

Short story long, he's giving out a pair of recon armor. One was to who he killed for his 77,777 kill, which is what that video was about and the last few games he played before he got it. He also has a running joke to try to get people to 1v1 me since I'm obviously a *cough* pro *cough*. Anyway, I told him the other day that it wouldn't be possible to fill up my inbox with 1v1 messages, so he made the video for the 77,777 kill, it got posted on the Bungie Blog, and then he put in that annotation. I've literally have gotten around 500 messages, party invites, ect. just because of it.

Pretty annoying now since its been a few days and people are still messaging me nonstop.

Kinda laughed at that article. Looks like they've never heard of the term "contractual obligations". They think you can get get-out-of-jail free cards when it comes to businesses. :lol
That's actually quite funny. How many Unreals came out before Epic moved on to Gears of War? (Hint: most of us have JUST BARELY enough fingers on one hand to count 'em. :lol )

"Stepping out of their comfort zone"... heh. The guy clearly knew nothing of the 10 years of Bungie BEFORE Halo, nor of the fact that in a studio with (about) 150 employees, no more than a few dozen are working on the two Halo games coming out in the next couple of years...

Eh. Let him rant. It'll only make him that much happier when something new DOES get announced.

my bad, i thought that was yours

I haven't checked it yet cuz my Xbox has been gone for two weeks but I don't really care if it's mine.

Becoming a Bungie favorite is good enough for my map for what it is; perhaps too good >_>

Congrats on your map. What's the situation with it and Atlas?
Thanks. I never got enough films on the most recent edition to submit it to Atlas. We don't play it that often because it gets too crowded with any more than 8 players.
 
Congrats easy!

So yeah, still playing action sack. 2 flag shotties on orbital is terrible, We took it 4v4 to the pit in a custom game and it was awesome fun though. The flag recoveries should be shortened just a bit though. could probably work well in snowbound, stand off and a few other maps.

why is bumper hogs not n action sack?
 
XBL is back up. Anyone have trouble getting into Halo 3 Matchmaking? I keep getting, "Information could not be retrieved from the Halo3 server" :/

edit: Good now
 
So I'm currently re-watching a lot of the cutscenes from Halo 2 and there's a couple things I want to discuss.

a) The way the story is told through the cutscenes are really well done. I know there's some here who prefer to have their story told strictly in-game, but I enjoy a rather cinematic approach to ALL plots to the story (be it a minor progress or a major plot twist/death of someone) and I'm not talking graphics wise.

b) Monk music. Seriously, I love the use of the Monks in all of Halo 2's music in the cutscenes. Even though most of the cutscenes consisted of some variant of the monks, it didn't feel like it was being re-used; each time it was heard, it felt new. I hope Marty returns to using Monks for some of the songs with Reach (I really enjoy the use of the sax and more sorrow tone in ODST; no need for monks there).

c) My favorite Halo 2 cutscene: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWLLh8Sr6mM&feature=related Everything from the dark, gritty music to the feeling of having no way out for the Arbiter, the Prophets' speech to the Arbiter, the dialogue between the Brutes, everything.

Halo 2's music has some of the BEST violin, monk and piano tones in anything I've ever heard.
