Who would have guessed that this is how it ends? That all we ever worked for would be for nothing. Everything humanity has gained...lost. Burned, excavated, and destroyed. All for a lost cause. All for blind faith, lies, and twisted memories.

how do u become a heroic member?


You've had to been hangin' round these parts for many, many years.


That can't be. I'm just a normal member on my old b.net account. And I signed up before you did.

I'm dissapointed. OK Corral sounds like it will turn out like standoff: hyped to no end, only to turn out sort of "meh".
I'm pissed that Purple Reign isn't a Midship remake, because to me, remakes are the only thing that can "save" Halo 3 for me.
If Frankie's favorite map is containment or the snow one from Halo 1, that's nice, I guess. I probably won't buy the maps Day 1 like I did with Heroic, though. I guess I'll just wait for them to be free unles I hear some really great things.

Bungie, can you pleasepleasepleeeeeease get Certain Affinity to do Ivory Tower, Beaver Creek, and Sanctuary remakes?

  • 01.04.2008 5:58 PM PDT

I swear to DRUNK, I'm not GOD!

*GASPS*

OMG! It sounds like we've got a re-make of Sidewinder coming our way! Yay!

And O.K. Corral sounds a lot like it could be kind of a remake of Boarding Action from Halo 1! ^^

Owners of the Katana: A place for those who have a Katana or over 1000GS in Halo 3.

Somewhere out there... in an alternate reality... Marty decided to stay in the ad jingle business, bringing about an age of amazingly orchestrated Pampers commercials.

When you said "Elite Commando Shoulders" did you mean you were going to fix it, or did you mean it would be hard to fix?

Those maps sound great, Cant wait for AU1

  • 01.04.2008 6:26 PM PDT


My request for the auto update: does anyone realize that the settings for sound/communications don't work quite right?

When I have everything set to "headset only", and I unplug my headset then the sounds come out my surround sound speakers.

I DON'T want it to do this!

Why? Because I have young(er) kids running around the house. Sometimes I unplug my headset to talk with others (no mute button). Occasionnaly headsets break and must be replaced. If I cannot use my headset for some reason then I don't want every player's expletives bursting forth from my speakers. It should just be mute. "Headset Only" should *mean* HEADSET ONLY!

And, this is the way Halo 2 worked. Why change it?

Thanks for listening!

I am wishing for a remake of Midship and Sanctuary. Come on Bungie. something with BR's. The new maps were hyped too much the only part I enjoyed was forge on foundry. thanks for that one and thanks for the post.

Happy New Year, and also it appears Frankie is one of the ones that is still trying to shake the last of the eggnog out of the carton.

EDIT: Good Read for the update.

It is possibly the remake of Blood Gulch from Halo 1 or known by some more people as Coagulation in Halo 2.
