Ok, bear with me for a sec...

My friends and I just discovered a new and fun way to play Halo MP, and I thought I'd share a suggestion for Halo 2 MP, at least to have the ability to set up a game like this.

It could work on just about any map but it seemed best for our 4 am trial run on Hang em High. In a free for all, have one person posted on the top of Red base looking down at the invisibility using only a plasma pistol. Now another person starts at the invisibility (but cannot use it) and has to either a)kill the shooter on red base (using only a plasma pistol or plasma rifle) or b) Run the gauntlet of pillars and reach red base ramp. The catch: The runner loses if he is hit by one plasma shot.

It's just like American Gladiators and while it may sound stupid to some, it was fun as hell. I thought it'd be cool to at least have the ability to set up games where you could place certain weapons at specific locations (Like the weapons in American Gladiators that runners used to shoot the target). Like a rocket launcher with only one round or Fuel Rod Gun with only enough juice to fire one or two shots. These weapons could be used to tear down the heavily defended area of the shooter giving the runner a better shot to kill him. Granted you probably cant get that detailed into game setups, but the idea seemed really interesting to me. Before you flame me, try it out, it's a blast.

That would actually be a pretty good gametype for Halo 2, although I think they might have to make special levels specifically for it.
