Has anyone here ever had a James Bond moment?

Here are two of mine.

While playing Multi player, Split-screen mode.
My friend was in a Tank and fired at me, ( I was in a ghost ) It flew past me as I bareel roll/flipped over a warthog, I landed steady ( Without losing much momentum ) and I ramped off of the tank, straight up into the air, ( A good distance up) he fired at me as I went up and missed. When I was in the air I hopped out of the GHost, Aimed Rocket launcher down, and killed him with the rocket. ( He was in the tank still ) Then as I fell to what I thought would be my death, I desperately pounded the x button and landed safely in the cockpit of the Tank.... the three other guys with me, were goin crazy with cheers I was impressed myself, LoL.

While playing Co-Op, in AotCR...

I was running across the bridge where the big golden elite is, with the glowy Sword.
He made his war cry and charged at me. ( Meanwhile I charged up my green blasty gun )
we Ran straight at eachother, plasma from a few of the grunts that were still alive, scoring the walls and floor around me. I shot him with the plasma pistol dropping his shields, a quick switch to assault rifle, and as we were about to collide. ( Me firing like a madman )
an alien plasma shot struck the glass floor beneath us, and I melee'd once in range and he died as we hit the floor. Looked amazing with all the glass falling around us and his sword landing off to the side.

Ok, we were in the middle of a very stressful bg ctf 4on4 w/warthogs (catch all that?). Oobie (a fellow blue) was returning with the enemy flag, with Darkstar (a red) hot on his tail, he was just running past the red base teleport output on the dark side when Darkstar's random pistol shots finally hit home. Just about that time I came flying over the hill, attempting to give Oobie a lift when I saw the unattended flag. I timed my move and jumped from the my warthog, grabbed the flag, and jumped back into the warthog all in one fluid motion, loosing no momentum and leaving Darkstar's rubberized corpse in my tire tracks.

my James Bond moment was in single player, the Halo level on legendary. i was getting friggin killed and got so pissed off! I charged up the ramp where there were four elites, I just ran past them shooting and meleeing killing every one, the last one I stuck a plasma grenade to his face! I died soon after but I felt much better.

This is a good post idea. A nice and funny one. I had a James Bond moment, but more of a Bond saying. It was after a crazy glitch happened thanks to my friends dirty disk.

I was over my friends house and I was playing the level Assault on The Control Room, at the pyramid. He was talking on the phone with his girlfriend and watching me play. So I was just messing around. I nabbed one of the Banshee's and flew to the top without killing its defenders along the way up. I decided to start killing them from the top-down. Now I first decided to shoot at those two elites at the right side of the building (if you where looking at the structure from the bottom and to the right, meaning.)

So I switched from my sniper rifle to my assault rifle because I just wanted to piss them off by shooting at'm. And the strangest thing happened. One of them jumped into the air and smashed into the other Elite, and they dissapeared in a cloud of Elite blood. The only trace of them was some blood, no bodies.

My friend dropped the phone and asked me what the hell just happened. I just went. "I suppose that Red elite had a...crush, for the other?" Well maybe it's more of an Austin Powers thing, but still it was one of the most...wackiest things that I've seen in HALO during me playing it. I've seen some crazy stuff too.

1) Just today, I was playing CTF Blood Gulch. I was Blue Team, and I took a sniper rifle and stayed hidden on the cliffs to the right of the blue base (where you get to the top with a ghost) and then suddenly it said on my screen that the red team had our flag, but something weird happened and I didn't hear the guy announce it, so none of my fellow teammates had any idea that it was gone! I swerved around and I saw him driving a ghost back to the Red base, I took careful aim, and right has he passed the rocket launcher I fired at his head, and somehow the bullet ended up hitting 2 other guys in the head right behind the ghost! I was laughing so hard. It was great.

2) I was playing on sidewinder CTF, blue team again, and I took a sniper rifle and rocket launcher and headed toward the red base to get their flag. I grabbed the flag, headed up the ladder and met one of my more stupid friends not even noticing I had stolen their flag, so I just whacked him in the back. I tried to go through the teleport, but it was blocked! Just then, my friend came by with the tank, but i didn't know. I jumped off the top of the base and landed on his tank, hit 'x' trying to reload but i ended up sitting in the tank. I took out my rocket launcher because my sniper rifle had one clip left in it. My friend was driving like a maniac trying to keep the red guys from sniping me in the face, when all the sudden we see 2 guys in a warthog coming right at us! I didn't have time to look around and fire at em, so they rammed us. The tank did a full barrel roll in the air, landed, and i fired my rocket right at the warthog. The gunner was still alive, so he started firing his pistol at me. I had no bullets in my rocket anymore, so I switched to my sniper and turned around non-zoomed and just shot like a maniac. Somehow one of the 4 bullets I fired managed to nail him in the head, I ran into the base, whacked some poor chump trying to steal our flag, and scored!
It's hard to come by these moments; hold onto them.

I'm a Halo MP noob, so this has probably happened, I can only play online with the PC demo which pisses me off cause Jesus does playing with a mouse suck.
Anyways what happened was I was in a Warthog as a Blue, and 2 Reds in a Warthog were driving over to me firing at me, so I turned around and we went at each other full speed, causing him to fly extremely high into the air doing all sorts of flips and spins, by the time they hit the ground upside down I was already on top of them, crushing them under the dirty vengeance of my Warthog's wheels...then a Banshee blew me up and killed me :(
Damn I love Halo's physics

I fired a random shot with an unzoomed sniper rifle, and 2 red teamers fell dead (one shot killed 2).

Just today, I was playing the level "halo", I was in the giant room with the first plasma bridge, and I was trying to kill a grunt with a warthog, but missed and hit the ramp with the glass square on it. I flew out over the botomless pit. I thought I was done for, but the hog spun and hit the opposite wall just right so that the nose was pointing up and the wheels were perfectly sitting on the wall, I jammed foward on the controll stick to slow the fall, and right before we hit the bottom of the not-so-deep pit, the hog flipped over and dumped me and the two marines out. We all landed and live, but one marine lost half his health. The other marine turned to me and asked, "What, are you trying to get us killed or something?" I couldn't stop laughing for ages.

There are just so many...
1. Playing AoTCR coop, final outdoor battle when you still have the warthog. We hadn't died yet, i had just snipped the elite before he climbed into his tank in the previous section, we were feeling pretty invincible... We had just got up the winding track in the hog and started shooting. Somewhere along the way, a grunt had stuck a grenade on the underside of the hog. we didn't notice and just as we ran over an elite, the grenade exploded. I'm guessing the elite dropped 3 grenades, and they all went off. The warthog just flew straight up in the air, killing me instantly, and i watched a birds eye view of the ground disappearing as the hog went god knows how high, but it didn't land for maybe 12 seconds... my friend (who was driving) actually survived with one health the whole way up and down, only to be cut to ribbons within seconds of landing... But what a spectacular way to die. i cried with laughter :)

2. Solo Two Betrayals, final run, everyone's dead except 2 elites and the two hunters. I have 4 shots of a sniper rifle and 1 plasma grenade left. i take out both the hunters, one with a belly shot, one neck shot, finish one of the elites with two sniper shots as the second ducks behind a plasma shield i throw the grenade from the peak of the ridge about 100 meters away and it lands directly on the top of his head. when he blows he sets off a huge chain reaction along the whole width of their line of now dead troops. Was the most beautiful thing i ever saw.

I was racing a friend on gulch with warthogs, and we were neck and neck coming up to the point on the ridge near red base. I forced him into a rock and my teammate in the side seat fired his RL at them when they were far enough into the air, the rocket forced their hog back down and right into my path. All three of them fell out and though we were all invisible, I ran all three over at the same time, then jumped off of the flipped hog, landing perfectly on the next race checkpoint.

Once, while I was playing Halo with my brother and my bro's friend Daniel. We were playing Multiplayer Wizard, and we were doing the game with only rockets. Now, I'm probably the best run and gunner of us three, and definately the best with rocket launchers, but I had never expected a 7, 9, 15 victory. I'm just not that good.

And the next one was when we were all yet again playing just the three of us, when I beat Gavin(my bro) and Daniel like four different times in a row, playing in different places and game modes. I must have had a major on day.
