Subject: Have you had any Halo 2 shenanigans lately?

The premise of this thread, good sirs and sirettes, is this: Have you played Halo 2 lately? And if so, what epic "OMFG, awesome!" moments have you had, if any, recently?

This'll do it for me: I was doing Gulch Wars on BTB, and there was this one pesky Scorpion Tank harassing our team. I basically chased it around the entire map, taking cover when it saw/shot at me [somehow, I managed to live].

It eventually got to the Blue base, and I noticed it was gonna take a pass around the base. So, I take the ramp at the base, and run off to the other side. When I get there, I see a big,.fat red dot. T'was the tank. So while the Scorp' Tank driver was just movin' along, shooting at my teammates [>:( ], I find a way to board it from behind. I'm not sure if he saw me or not, but he didn't seem to care that I was on his back. Anyway, I hit the tank a couple times, and planted a grenade. Once he noticed what I was up to, he finally decided to get out.

But at the exact same time, an enemy Hog, and his Gunner decide to charge at me for some reason. And at that exact moment, my grenade went off, killing the fleeing Tank driver, and somehow scoring a double-kill with the enemy Hog that foolishly charged at us... resulting in a Triple Kill.

When I got in to that situation, I did not expect to live. But, in the end, I got an easy triple kill, and a free tank =D

Does anyone else have any shenanigans to share?

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

I just played it yesterday. Teabagging Elite's corpses will never get old. I still do it in Halo 3 when I get the chance.

"The road less traveled is often better than the beaten path"

I was in a Gulch Wars on Coagulation. I was on the top of one of the bases standing inches away from the portal to my right with the sniper rifle. One of the players from the opposite team just jumping down sunny side ridge and was charging me with a BR. I scoped in on his head..... and must have nudged right which sent me through the portal by the trees. But I still pulled the trigger. Before I knew what was happening, I shot a different player, IN THE HEAD, from across the map, that was running between the rocks and sunny side ridge!!! What are the odds of that happening??? I wish I could have captured that one on video.

My last game was one of the most epic games I've had... ever.

Long, stupid story ahead :

It was 4 vs. 4 TSlayer on Relic. It was basically like being marooned on a desert island with a blood-thirsty savage, and two crazy guys with a blood-lust bootycall with my name on it.

Anyway, we started off near the crashed drop-ship, so we rode off towards the Rockets with the Hog. I picked out, and picked it up really quick, but then a Ghost came from behind, and I killed it with the Rockets. My [former] driver rode off in to the distance with his tail in-between his legs.

I made good use of the Rockets from then on, and participated in epic Carbine vs. BR battles throughout the map. In one situation this guy chased me, and I ran in to a corner where the sword was. He though because I had no shields, that he'd win. So I waited there as the motion sensor indicator got closer, unsheathed my sword, and waited to hear the sound of him reloading. I bolted out... and guess who the victor was?

From that point on, I pretty much spent most of the match creating traps, and luring my prey in to them nice n' proper, and survived some pretty damn insane situations. Eventually, everyone from the other team left except for one guy.

At this time, all 3 of my teammates were hell-bent on betraying each other. One was booted, and one was focused on killing the other guy over and over again. So, I took caution to stay away from my teammate's HUD icons as much as possible, and also watch my back for that one crazy murderer on the island. I has to constantly watch my back.

At one point, my crazy, cannibal teammate caught up to me somehow, and managed to get a few shots on me. He got my shields all the way down, and there was nowhere to go. So I ran over to this one little raised rock right on the brink of death, and ran around in circles. And then the other direction. He got peppered my health right before my shields were about to go up, and I knew, one more hit, and I was dead. So we continued to go in circles, and then I got the idea of to jump on top of the rock, and let him go in circles like an idiot [he wouldn't see my HUD icon, since I was raised above him]. I jumped off, and ran towards the structure [and gained extra speed by jumping on a slope]. By the time he saw me, he saw I was in cover where he couldn't get me. So he decided to just go after our other teammates. I was this | | close to death.

So, again, the remainder of the match was spent staying away from my crazed teammates, and keeping an eye out for that one blood-thirsty murderer. I laid more traps for him with my Energy Sword, and barely managed to survive this one battle with him at one point. At one point, the murderer decided to acquire a Ghost. I went through the teleporter, and winded up at the beach. I hear a humming behind me, turn around. And I see a Ghost boosting towards my direction. I take cover behind a rock, and I thought he didn't notice me... but he turns around, and faces me. And at that moment, I jump out of cover, and stick him on his wing. It went by so quickly.

And right before the match was about to end... let's just say he has a certain power weapon, and was chasing me... It was right down to the wire, but I managed to escape from him at the very last second, right when the match ended.

I survived on a desert island with insane cannibals, and a murderer. I was also awarded a Killing Frenzy in the end for my efforts =D

I was playing team slayer on terminal against 47. A few people on the other team bounced out with a sniper. My teammate got 1 and I bounced out to kill the other. I went to the slanted building in the back and outsniped him. Later my teammate got out and my other 2 quit. After about 5-6 failed attempts at killing us, we saw 1 walking below us so my teammate threw a plasma grenade straight up in the air. Right after he threw it he said "if this sticks him...", before the nade hit the ground a second guy was walking over terminal coming to kill us. When he jumped over a small ledge the nade came down and stuck him in the dome

Campiagn Kill Count :31,745. And growing.

The Revisionaries- One of the greatest screenshot groups on B.net. With 250 members and growing.

It was a while ago, but one time I was at my freinds, and I was playing SWAT on his account. I partied up with these three guys, and we were just messing around the entire time. Then, eventually, we had like 3 points, and the other team had 29 or 30. Then I decided, what the hell, I'll try to win. So I battled like hell, and it got to 49 to 49, and I saw one guys HUD icon flash red, like he was being shot, probably about to be killed. Like a second later, I got a kill on an unsuspecting enemy who turned to corner, and won the game. When it said game over, with the few seconds it gives you, I looked over to where my teammate was being shot, and he was dead. I really got hella lucky with that last kill.

Anyway, the score ended up being:
Me: 42
Teammate1:3
Teammate2:3
Teammate3:2

It was incredible. And then they were laughing their asses off, because I was pretending to be a 50 year old drunk sex predator before that. It was great.

Here's a link to the game.

xD, no offense to you at all, but I just wanna say this:

"Oh? Me? Ummm, I don't play Halo much, so I'm not very good at all; you just suck"

I suck at Halo, too, so ^-^

Me and my friends were playing swat on lockout (custom game) and i was running from one of my enemies. I come out of the door near the superbounce by the br tower, and he shoots while hes running sideways and dies. I found out with experimentation (spelling -.-) that his br bullets bounced of the side of the door and killed him.
