Depends. I quit if it's Flag Wars. That game is boring. I even quit if there is 2 people vs 8, boring, the team with 8 wins.


Not true I have won a Flag Wars game 2 against 8 sir.

Man, I hate spammers...but I love spam...
and back on topic, I'm never serious in a game, actually, because, like this whole topic has been going on about and why it is a hot topic, it's...just...a...
...game!
I was playing with one guy, it was a tie, and he's like "Seriously, What the ****!!?!?!?!!?"
and me and my friend said it was just a game, no need to get serious, but he sayz "So? If it's just a game, how come you don't know how to play it?"
and not only is he making a "mountain out of a molehill", but he has a horrible comeback...
so please, just remember...

It's just a game...

Dude is the game just for fun when your playing "just for fun" in a tournament for 100000 dollars and your just having fun. People have a right to get mad for people continuously dying and just having fun. If you go into matchmaking you should be playing legit and your best. It's other peoples levels that you're going to lose too if you go into matchmaking and have fun. I'm not saying every game is a tournament for 100000 dollars but some people actually want to gain levels and win even though it is a game.

dude i think u got the wrong idea about this thread buddy.... the reason i started this was to c n find who played for fun, IE: ppl that dont cheat(glitch or bounce in MM) yes i know its ohk to do but it is actually classified as cheating if ur the only 1 doing it... who actually sticks a game out. doesnt quit if they have quiters on there team. who doesnt trash talk there oppents, u know stuff like that....

u have takin it as who just stufs around n team kills n betrays n stuff like that but this isnt what the thread is about....

basicallt its about who plays the game as it was meant to b played n who treats ppl how they would want to b treated back....

yes i must admit i goof off sumtimes(in unranked if i wanna vent) but who doesnt, n that isnt what this topic is about(though e do talk about it sometimes coz alot of us are actual friends n play together on xbl)... i hopes this has givin u abetter understanding of this topic...

Suck it JoeSki!!!

Well I'm kind of competitive at whatever I do, whether its in school or in sports, or in Halo. I'll do my best to win, don't care if I suck the place up. I'd rather win and suck than lose and rip everyone's ass. With that said, I won't go postal for not playing well. I ain't getting paid to play Halo, and I won't die for sucking at it.

At the end of the day, I have a beautiful girlfriend to seek comfort in if I don't do so well in Halo ;)

Ha! I can see it now longhorn! You running to your girlfriend because you were stand-byed twice in a row.

Your lip trembling and you crying between sobs "And...they...cheated...and...we....couldn't...win!& quot;

Nah, I'm messing with ya, but I kind of (sorta) see your point.

Hahaha! That's about how it goes! Unfortunately, I get no sympathy points from her. She's only started to warm up to Halo. We play FFA split screen with my roommates on Lockout all the time, and she just stands in a corner, waits for us to get close and snipes us close range when we try to club her. So I guess I just play for fun.

yeah i guess it did in a way hey? i wasnt there in the begining though so i can only go on what i've heard.... i'm hoping it settles down again when H3 comes out. i'l b stayin on this(H2) 4 atleast 6months after it comes out just so all the lil annoyin kids that have to cheat to win n are so on there selfs that its not funny n cant even admit when its so obvious they cheated give up on H3 coz they wont b able to cheat so they'll go back to H2....

thats when i'll start playin H3 when its just all the ppl that play the game how its suppose to b played n respect there fellow players online. coz i swear most ppl(READ MOST) forget that the ppl there playin against are real ppl not bots

Halo 2s certainly not fun for me anymore. more of a job :s But you have to remember alot of the kids you play with see people like walshy making millions off of halo and go into matchmaking with the mindset that theyll become professional overnight and have no reason to loose-since there "pro"

never going to hapen, unless you dont have a life, then its completely possible

but i came into halo 2 online a few days ago with the mind set to play my best and to pop somebody in the head with a pistol, so mostly i play swat for the sheer fun of the kill(seing as you get one every 5 seconds if you can find your enemy), ii just wish they would do a swat type game in btb

I get betrayed all the time for going for the sniper rifle in training games...it's pathetic that people can't even say they want a weapon; they just betray and take it. Talk about no fun...seriously, that's sad. I'm a bit biased since this happened to me three times last night in team training, but it takes away a lot of the fun. I want to win and have good stats, but only if the game is fun, and when my teammates kill me for no reason, it definitely takes the fun out of the game.

It depends on what mood I'm in. If I'm in a goofy mood, I just log in and act like a 4 year old just jumping around, getting kills and sometimes even singing john jacob jingleheimer smith. Other times I'm in the mood to just play ranked games to get back what I was at during christmas.
