168. Scorpion Tank shells that actually hit your target. Seriously, I don't know if it's lag or just me, but every time I fire the Scorpion in Halo 3, the shells seem to impact my target, yet my target survives.

175. That final run on "The Maw" The end of Halo 3 could not live up to the epicness of that, actually timed, run. Without a time limit, the end of Halo 3 was piss easy.

30. This is a huge one which I only just remembered. Blood spurts when you meleed dead enemies. Halo 2 and 3 you have to shoot them. Surely I wasn't the only one who spent mintues painting an area of floor with grunt or elite blood. I miss that.


Ah, the good ol' days. . .

I once kept doing that for 5 minutes until a 6-9 foot radius around the dead Jackal was blue! Ha ha!

183. Ghosts with no boost.

184. The Elites as adversaries. The Brutes from Halo 3, while decent soldiers, weren't nearly as intelligent as the Elites from Halo: CE. When I first heard that the Elites would side with the UNSC in Halo 3, I was initially excited. However, after a while, I longed for the good old days in which the UNSC and the Elites were bitter rivals. It was an absolute thrill going into combat against them. They were strong, aggressive, and intelligent enemies.
