If anyone plays, we need to start setting up a massive day of halo ce on xbc for winter break(those of us in college). All of my friends want to get together and play. Its simple and halo ce is the best halo game there is. Just need to keep and open conversation until winter break is here then we pick one night where everyone logs in and plays a -blam!- ton of halo ce

Halo 3 is better than Reach

Xbox Live: iSupremacyX
Xbox Connect: Cold_Achilles
XFire: redmeany
Steam: coldachilles

sounds like a 1337 idea. i got halo 1 for xbc and pc.

That sounds like an excellent idea to me. If this is catering toward college students, perhaps a Facebook event would be worthwhile. The Halo: Combat Evolved forum is kinda underpopulated. Most of the people I know who still play, don't visit this forum.

Edit:
I just looked at XBConnect and there were 3 people online for Halo. Xlink Kai had 0. This definitely needs to happen.

I would love to play a ton of Halo, but it would have to be on Kai; I can't get XBC to work right for the life of me. Kai has a much easier interface anyway.

I have both installed, but I've never actually played a game on Kai.

Sounds awsome. As much as I love H3, CE is special in it's own way. It simply can't die. I just got my XBC account (ChupaDude) and playing is a blast. It's a lot harder to find a game. Actually makes me miss matchmaking. However, when you get a game going it's awsome. I would love to se a resurgance in the use of XBC.

Wait, when is this tournament?
I can't play before December 13th.
I have XBC and my ID is Halo Fanatic or HaloFanatic (I'm not sure)

Do we have any dates, or even weeks, in mind for this? Some people go back to school pretty soon after New Year's. If it were between Christmas and New Year's, it would probably maximize the number of people off school. That's just a suggestion though. December 28th-30th would be the weekend between the two. That might mean that more people would be off work, as well. I would suggest that it occurs sometime during that weekend.

I used to play it before I realized Halo 1's netcode sucks ass and the only kind of game you can play that doesn't lag is on the same system. So -blam!- Halo 1, -blam!- it! :'(

Halo plays fine on a LAN. It can sometimes be okay on XBC. The network code doesn't suck; it's simply designed for LAN. There is no code to approximate your location or anything like that. Everything is done by the host and you have to wait for the host. On a good LAN, that works pretty well.

Just created a Halo CE on XBC facebook event. It should be set to open so all can see the event. Feel free to give vicious_killer a shout if you see us on XBC.
