I own all the property in Fable II...except Castle Fairfax (1,000,000 gold to buy). Of course, all the property I own that can be rented is rented. So I get a good 16,000 of rent money. Not to mention various quests to help get up to the million.

In more Halo 3 related news, since I should try and stay on topic...what has Gazas been up to? Any progress on the Ark? Yes, I know I could go look, but I'm feeling a bit lazy.

So far, the furthest he's gotten is to the last four Stalkers. He was killed by a Jackal. He should be wrapping it up fairly soon. He's gotten to the Cartographer a few times.

So last night I took another stab at Cortana, I got further than I ever have. I had to spend some time on it though, after killing all the enemies in the room with the skull, I juggled all of the equipment to the next hallway. I then killed everything that was in range, used Cloaking to get towards the end of the hall and assassinate a few of the ranged form that were hiding at the end of the hall, and then triggered the next group of Flood. I then retreated back to the beginning of the hallway and took them out. After this, I then juggled the remaining equipment (bubble shield, another cloaking, and a deployable cover) to the opening of the next room.

This allowed for me to clear most of this room, and I thought that I was home free when a Tank form dropped right on top of me and broke my face. ;(

I am making progress though. ;)

Excellent work! You're getting there! Check out my Cortana run. There's a far easier way to tackle Hell's Hallway and still go back for Cloaking :-)

I have been using your gamevee video as reference (I have used it for the other two levels that I have completed and there are SUPER helpful). I have tried to get to the other side of the hallway first but I always end up getting wasted, so I have resorted to killing everything as I go through. Is that what you mean by the easier way? It looks super easy in your video but I cant seem to reproduce its "simplicity". ;)

The key is speed and accuracy. You only need to kill the Flood that pose an immediate threat in that area. Then you jump up to that elevated portion on the right-hand side. Like with the Halo jump, my advice is to practice on easy until you have the physics and timing down every time. Granted the Cortana jump is far easier and takes less training, but always worth a go on an easier difficulty. This will give you lots of cover from most of the Ranged Flood and complete protection from the Tanks.

Not at all. Only challenging, and that's good for you :-) The Floodgate walkthrough is now up. My advice is to start there and take it slow.

I didn't know about a money glitch, but yes, I own everything now without using any glitches.

Now there's a first...

*Zing!*

I'm a great guy really.

In one storm run i got past the first lake and died at the plasma cannon chieftain room because no marines were alive to help and i just got overpowered again. So i tried some floodgate runs as i wouldnt have enough time to complete the storm after that and the closest i got was dieing after about 3:40 at the hole into the ship... got killed right on the edge because my bubble shield didnt load straight away. Going to try both again sometime soon, but getting farcry 2 soon so a bit less mythic after that.

You can run through that area on the Storm. Just make sure you have a bubble shield handy.

I don't want random messages (ie, Join my group, etc). I have begun blocking solicitations.

Annoying nitpick, but you could "Headshot" the flood in Halo 2 also (and the infection forms would scurry over to reanimate the bodies).

Huh... I've never been able to pull it off. Of course it was also harder to tell since combat forms mostly came in the shielded Elite flavor. lol.

Its how I survived the elevator on Oracle on Legendary. I'd carbine the Flood (which, in my case, were mostly shieldless) before they jumped down.

I just wish there was an accepted middle ground between Legendary and "Mythic"... I get frustrated far too quickly to attempt Mythic.

Give Floodgate a shot. If you've beaten the game on solo Legendary, then you should do fine. I myself was able to beat it on my second attempt. Floodgate is a fairly simply mission, and the skulls seem to have very little effect on its gameplay.

Mythic, in my opinion, for Halo 3 is about on par with Halo 2 on Legendary.

Wow. Anyone heard this rumor of the Assassin Skull supposedly in Halo 3 but was removed. Good thing it was removed. Mythic would be so much harder if enemies were cloaked.

Here is the topic.

Invisible Jackal Snipers... Sierra 117 would be the harder than The Ark.
