I would Tea Bag my oldest brother for a Klondike bar. Repeatedly for a Klondike Krunch!

You want to see a good movie that's not quite in that genre? Rent "Gridlocked" starring Tupac Shakur!

From the moment I first played part of the campaign on my nephews XBOX I was hooked. I have played video games since Pong, yes Pong! I have owned nearly every game counsel ever made and played so many stand up arcade games in local game rooms, bowling alleys and malls than I will ever be able to remember. The were some great games that had built in story lines, were adapted from movies or just stood on their own. Tron, Space Invaders, Galaga, Doom, Mortal Kombat, Tekken, Syphon Filter, Legacy of Kain series, and the Bond series are just a few of them. But when Halo hit the market all else that stood before it seemed to fade away as I became engrossed in the game series. Other than a quick sampling of MW, which I never took to, I have not played another FPS online since my first exposure to Halo! It has earned more than a cult status with it's fans. We were all owe a great deal of thanks to whomever first read the novel and worked to make this game a reality. I have continued to play long after my nephews lost interest. Point is, Halo is the best, will always be the best and live on long after others fade away. The story, the campaign, the muliti-player! It has no equal!

It would be nice to see the terminals play a more important role in campaign. Having direct information provided about future Halo events and Halo 4 would be a great way to entice the player. They may even contain some of the actual imagery from the Halo 4 campaign is my hope. However they play out, I look forward to the CEA campaign. Since I already own Reach an will at that point have the new maps, I will have the chance to play MM on the original maps from Halo CE. Looking forward to it!

"Maybe that monkey was so....."

Send a friend request. When I get on we will try it and see if we play well together. This is my actual gamer tag.

I spent a lot of time in a thread in Bungie looking for a missing armor/helmet Easter Egg. It was the first time I ever got involved in a hunt for one. It was fun! this is the link to the thread, maybe it will spawn some more ideas and show you what was tried. existing thread in Bungie The OP made continuous update in his original posts, so what you see there is a culmination of one of the original ideas.

Absolutely not! I am a camper by any stretch of the imagination. I move, I play. I will no scope beat you down as much as I will long shot you. It just depends on the map and flow of the game. I do keep an eye on the clock and know the spawn times of all power weapons. I call out to my team when the spawns are coming up. It is first come first serve in my opinion. In my group of friends we do each gravitate towards weapons we are good at or like to use, so depending on who's there that game, we discuss it in the pregame lobby.

Someone ate their Wheaties today! elite this really is turning into a good forum. When I had played those few games of mine, especially in Ghost Town, I would camp near the mongoose spawn in the hole in the floor. I racked up some serious kills, medals, etc. Keep up the good work here man. I am not considered a camper by any means, but Infection just begged for it.

I do get a kick out of taunting an AL player when they use it. I tell them through proximity mic that "I can see your pink thong strap Darlin'".

I actually never try for assassinations myself, I feel it leaves you too vulnerable to attack. I do get them on a fairly regular basis by just performing a melee from the side or back to finish off an opponent. Sniper sprees, 5-10 in a row, that gets me very pumped up. I feel there is nothing more satisfying than shooting across a map and saving a fellow team mate from certain death or taking out an opposing sniper. You may not always get the highest number of kills, but if you are good, your team appreciates it. It can be a pivotal shot of a flag carrier about to score, a player with a laser about to kill a Warthog full of your team mates or eliminating a harassing banshee from the sky. Sniper.....enough said!

elite you know the second image looks friggin' bad a**! If there ever is more Elite armor added, that one should be the hardest to get! Equivalent to the Recon armor of Halo 3. He looks like the last guy in the world a Spartan would want to tangle with.

You're right Legend. Back to some of the roots. We don't need 30 types of armors with multiple attachments for each of them. My post was to just bring light to a compromise of all the thoughts I had read, but I believe like you do.

to chasing that damn monkey.

There may end up being some sort of mechanized entity similar to Guilty Spark 343. He did after all, along with his drones, protect the Ring. I look forward to seeing what the Forerunner planet has in store for us, not to mention the Easter Eggs that may be there. One thing I got from 343Ind's. interviews was the desire to reproduce them in the CEA game. Maybe they are on their minds for Halo 4.

It should also have a draining affect on the shield or health of the user. That would have to be one powerful smackdown!

I think they do have a game plan for the future. They have given indications of that in interviews. I have also read, and will find the source when time permits, that there were only a handful of Bungie employees at 343 Ind.

I'll have to go back and listen to it. I just can't seem to recall it right now.

Where did you read this, I must have missed it? Is it from the book?

You do realize you had cap lock on, right? lol

I do not remember the post I read this in, but they reminded me that we would be fighting on a Forerunner planet. I just figured that would be adding new weapons to use along with some of the standard equipment. There may also be some weapon advancements made by humans and/or the Covenant. I can't wait to see whats in store.

There may be something there, I'll mull it over and see what I can get from it. Thanks elite.

Do you mean walking with a swagger like John Wayne or cool hip walk like Chris Rock? Maybe stand like Buzz Light Year with your hands your hips or Serpico on a corner in New York? What are we talking about here elite?

I had read in a post about AA's that the player felt they made you think about when to use them, I mulled that over for a while and had this thought and created a post. It seemed like there needed to be some kind of a trade off for using an Armor Ability sense that had become so controversial in Reach. I ,nor does anyone here, know if they will be part of Halo 4. When I had this thought though, knowing my dislike for AA's, I felt this was something I could easily live with. Give those who like them their AA's and those of us who don't a trade off. Your shields, as they are, now have an over shield and your health, or armor strength bar. Use of an AA requiring an electric or fueled energy would leech off of your over shield and use of a physical AA would leech your health bar. Example: Activating Invisibility, Jet Pack, Hologram, Drop Shield and the dreaded AL would be fueled or electric source where Sprint and Evade would be a physical source. P.S. eliteultra you do need to get some fresh air, lol!
