Not that I don't like the name or anything, but don't you think the site founders would have realized by naming it "343industries.org," people would think that we are 343i?

How do Bubble Shields work? More specifically, how can players, vehicles, and pretty much any other object pass through them, but any kind of ballistics can't?

The awesome people here, and the fun times in the Shoutbox, or at events.

I never actually played JSR, but I can't imagine it being too different from JSRF. I think I played the demo once, because it's on the XBL Arcade. If you can get your hands on JSRF, it actually plays on the Xbox 360.

Well, I figured since everyone is doing it, why not me? There have been plenty of great games in the past 20 years, and even before that. Without further adieu, here is my list of "Best Games." The only one that is in a particular order is #1. The rest aren't. 1. Halo 2 (Xbox / 2004) The game that started my love for Halo. Although Halo: CE was my first Halo, it was not even close to being my favorite. First off, absolutely amazing campaign. I couldn't even tell you how many times I've been through it. The campaign went so deep into story in Halo 2, especially by letting you play as the Arbiter. It gave you a glimpse of what it was like inside the Covenant. With 60 minutes of cutscenes, how could it not develop such a deep story? Had a lot of content not been cut, there would have been even more story. As far as Multiplayer, I'd say it was pretty good, besides the little bugs like BXR. The maps were very balanced, and mechanics in general were far better than CE. I remember inviting my friends over to play Halo 2, 4-player splitscreen, and we would play for hours on end. If there was a way to find out how many hours I've actually had in Halo 2, they would definitely top out any other game I've ever played. I honestly can say my life would have been a lot different without Halo 2. 2. Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex (Xbox / 2001) This is one of my childhood games. Now although back then, I found the game extremely difficult, I visited it a couple months ago and dominated it. Anyways, I played this game so much as a little one. From collecting Wumpa, to running into Nitro crates, and even spinning into penguins, I found the game very amusing and entertaining. Although I never truly beat it (After completing all of the missions, you have to go back and play through them all again to beat speed runs, and destroy every crate on the level, to earn Gems and Relics.) I still felt great pride in completing the final level. 3. Jet Set Radio Future (Xbox / 2002) Another childhood game, that I don't think very many people actually know about. The graphics were very interesting, everything seemed to like it was out of a comic book, a lot like what Borderlands looks like. Anyways, the game took place in future Tokyo, where the corrupted Rokkaku corporation, pretty much has power over everything. And a group of teenagers sets out to stop them. Now in the game, you roll through Tokyo in skates, which proved to be very frustrating at times. Anyways, throughout most of the game, you pretty much tag up everything. In fact, in order to defeat enemies, you have to tag their backs. (Or put graffiti on them, for those of you who don't know what tagging is.) The game also has many geometric puzzles that can make it very hard to figure out where to go next in a particular area. Overall, it's a pretty interesting game, and I recommend everyone to play it. 4.Timesplitters 2 (Xbox / 2002) One of my favorite childhood games. I spent hours on end playing this. Whether I was playing the Story, using the MapMaker, or just fighting AI in a multiplayer game, it always proved to be entertaining. The cool thing about the Story was, the harder the difficulty, the more objectives you had to complete, and the more unexpected enemies. To this day, I find the game pretty challenging on Hard. It wasn't much for show as far as multiplayer though. The teams and maps were very big, but I just didn't find it very appealing. Besides, I think a game that has bots instead of players, usually means the multiplayer isn't too great. MapMaker was amazing though. Now it wasn't as advanced as Forge was, but at the time, Forge wouldn't come out for another 5 years, so it was ahead of it's time. The thing I loved most about it was the fact that you could make your own Story missions, with working Objectives and enemy AI that would patrol the map, or not, depending on what you wanted them to do. You could give them any weapons you wanted too. I always had a big open room at the end of the mission facing you against near impossible odds, giving all the AI Heatseeking rockets. Unforunately EA had to ruin the series with a sequel that was nothing compared to it's predecessor. 5. Destiny (Xbox 360/One / 2014) Now I now this game has very mixed reviews, but personally, it never ceases to amaze me. It has been the only game in quite some time to make me actually stop playing Halo for over a month. And the only game where I prefer PvE over PvP. Although it has a lack of Story, the lore is amazing. And the DLCs just keep getting better. There's so much to do, and there's always something you haven't done. My Tuesdays are pretty much dedicated to Destiny. 6. Tony Hawk's Underground (Xbox / 2003) I used to really be into skateboarding. In fact, the Tony Hawk games are what made me want to in the first place. But this particular Tony Hawk game, I played more than any other. I couldn't tell you how many times I played through the story. I know almost all of the cutscenes word for word, because I played it that much. Anyways, it was really just good fun. Not to mention unlocking the cheat codes after beating all of the Goals. Moon Gravity skateboarding? I think, yes. 7. Star Wars: The Clone Wars (Xbox / 2002) I was never really too into Star Wars, I do enjoy the movies and all that, but I wasn't super into it. But this game, was amazing. It was the first game I played on my Xbox, when I got it in 2002. It offered so much, there were so many environments to play in, not to mention the vehicles. The majority of the game was played inside a vehicle, granted there being a couple instances when you were on foot, throwing your lightsaber at things. Hell, there are two missions where you ride wildlife ( Can't remember what the things are called.) with lasers mounted on their bodies. It doesn't get much better than that. The final boss was the biggest pain in the arse ever. It took me forever to beat the Dark Reaper, but when I finally did, the feeling was amazing. This concludes my list of "Best Games." I'd say it's a pretty good one. Now I really want to play all of these again.....

Whether or not I'll be making it to this will be determined tomorrow. UPDATE: If I do make it, I will be about an hour late.

...so ShadowFiend would not drink...

Well, honestly, I don't think most of them actually consider me their best friend, just because I don't think that we could be. I mean, I barely talk to most of them, the only time I really see them is when I'm at work. There is one in particular though, that I do know really considers me her best friend. We're together at least 4-5 times throughout the week, and she's said to me on several occasions that I am her "best friend," or "favorite boy," whatever the hell that's supposed to mean. And unfortunately she is the one I yearn for the most out of them all.

Holy crap dude, why do you know so much.

How come every girl I ever meet, I end up being their "best friend," instead of what I actually want to be?

Hardest Halo 2 Halo: CE Halo 3: ODST Halo 4 Halo 3 Easiest H2 Jackal Snipers. That is all. lol

Action Sack, or Infection pls. Or both.

I'm almost positive I will make it to this event. Sign me up!

Congratulations! This has been long overdue. Enjoy your month in pink. Also, it's July and you're not American, but I guess I can except that. lol.

Welcome back! I hate to be that guy, but how in the world does that Wraith maneuver through those thick woods? lol

Congratulations to those who made the list! Glad to see some names, I've never seen before one there!
