Okay, I didn't know where to put it, but I was warned about putting it in the wrong forum and now I know it goes here! :)
This is a thankyou to Bungie for such a great game
I'd so much rather play Halo than watch a ballgame
I bought my 360 just for Halo 3
I gladly gave up my Nintendo Wii
90% of my life is playing Halo 3
The other half is waiting for the expansion, Yippee!
I've played matchmaking and made some cool maps
I even dream of Halo during some of my naps
I think Master Chief is so fricken bad-@$$
I carved his name on a desk in my class
I only go to school so I can learn to be
An awesome programmer like the employees at Bungie
Onto the game, I really love the BR
You can shoot your enemies from quite afar
And then there's the sniper, what a great gun
Getting no-scope hedshots is so much fun
There's also the needler, no longer dual-wields
Because it's quite overpowered, it takes out all your shields
Don't forget the spiker, blade on the underside
If someone dual-wields, get ready to run and hide!
Hmm, the spartan laser, that gun packs a punch!
It kills you in one hit, and that's no hunch
Of course there's the shotgun, which most campers horde
The shotgun can easily kill the guy with a sword
Ah yes, the sword, an original creation by Bungie
When someone has the sword, they can get quite...lungey
Look out for the Beam Rifle, an equal to the sniper
It can fire quite fast, as if it were hyper
Another nice weapon is that of the carbine
It fires quite fast, but a good BR will keep it in-line
Oh joy, the bruteshot with grenades galore
If you have a bruteshot, whaddya need friends for?
A good secondary weapon, the pistol is great
Though to use single or dual-wield, there is much debate
Much overlooked, the SMG fires quite fast
But if you hold down the trigger, your ammo won't last
A common starting weapon, the Assault Rifle has a lot of power
Unless you are far away, then your luck might just turn sour
No one passes up the opportunity to get the rocks
For, if someone has them, you must be sneaky, like a fox
I absolute love the sticky grenade
Such a great way to go on a bubble-shield raid
Quite often I find myself throwing a frag
Although lots of explosions might cause some lag
Speaking of grenades, theres the spike, which will stick
If you hit the person directly, it will give them quite a prick
Watch out for incendiary grenades in custom games
If you get hit by one you'll surely go up in flames
Why not a detachable turret that you can carry around
If you need to run faster, just drop it on the ground
I like to use the missle-pod, even though it has a slow rate of fire
Just trust me on this one, it'll get the job done, and I'm no liar
A common covenant weapon, the plasma rifle takes shields down fast
But if you try to kill someone with it, you probably won't last
Another covenant weapon, the plasma pistol will take you down to one shot
But fire it quickly, because charge it forever, you surely cannot
Lets talk about equipment, how about the bubble shield
Throw it down anywhere to protect you on the field
A big explosion is sometimes made by a trip mine
If you hear loud pulsing, that's probably a bad sign
It would be wise to run away from the annoying Power Drain
It will take down your shields quickly, you'll feel no pain
The long lasting grav-lift will raise you up quite high
It's almost like you can momentarily fly
It would be good to carry around a Regen
It will quickly bring your shields back again
Sometimes people throw a Radar Jammer
It could certainly hide you from the Gravity Hammer...er
You can't see anything when someone throws a Flare at you
It's almost like you are blind, for a second or two
Helpful at times would be the Deployable Cover
It can give you some time for your health to recover
What of the powerups, Active Camo is blue and will hide you
Overshield is red, and gives you extra shields, times two
Custom Powerup is yellow, and its power differs from here to there
These are the three powerups that you can find, most anywhere
Lets move to the vehicles, how about a Warthog
With gauss or turret on back, it's way more fun than a dog
Surely you know of the mongoose quite small
It sits only two people, front and back, that's all
The big Scorpion Tank is so fun to drive
When you shoot its big cannon, nothing will be left alive
I love the new Hornet, how it can shoot and fly
The two big propeller engines let it soar sky high
When I need some real speed, I get to a Ghost
Nobody can catch me, not even the connection host
Not quite as fast as the ghost, but able to fly in the air
I take a Banshee and soar away, with no time to spare
A powerful vehicle that shoots plasma bombs and can boost
Im so glad that the Wraith was long ago introduced
What a weird looking vehicle with blades in the front
Dont play chicken with a Chopper, those blades are not blunt!
What a huge fortress, a vehicle with such a fitting name
The Elephant moves very slow, but is ideal for a CTF game
Last but not least we have the Prowler in campaign
It holds up to four people and can bring the pain
How 'bout that armor, choices galore
Atleast 187,947,000 combinations, maybe even more
So many colors to choose from, 30 to be exact, with many a shade
And with three places to put them, you've got it made!
The 30 colors available are steel, silver, white, red, mauve, ruby wine, pink, tan
Salmon, orange, coral, peach, gold, yellow, pale, sage, green, brown, khaki, cyan
Olive, teal, aqua, cobalt, sapphire, violet, orchid, lavender, crimson, and blue
These are the colors that can be chosen by you, all thirty of them are available to you
Now you might ask what kind of armor is there
I suppose I should tell you, it'd only be fair
I will start with the spartan and move to the elite
So pay close attention, don't move from your seat
Lets start with the helmet and then move to the chest
You can decide which one you think looks the best
Okay here I go, Mark VI, EOD, Mark V, ODST, Eva, CQB
Hayabusa, Rogue, Scout, Recon(for few), and Security
Now to get into the types of elite wear
They all look pretty cool, I mean it, I swear!
Flight Mark, Commando, Ascetic, Assault, and Combat
That's plenty of choices, you can't argue with that
With 3 map packs out and 1 more soon to come
There's just so many maps to choose from
The three map packs out are Heroic, Legendary, and Cold Storage
With so many maps, theres no need to forage
There's Avalanche, Blackout, Cold Storage, Construct, Epitaph, Sandtrap, The Pit, Valhalla, High Ground
Foundry, Ghost Town, Guardian, Isolation, Last Resort, Narrows, Rat's Nest, Standoff and Snowbound
And then Assembly, Citadel, Heretic, Longshore, Orbital, and Sandbox are soon to come
Look how many maps there are now, without the 6 soon to be out, there are 18 to choose from
Now, I bet you are wondering about what gametypes are available to play
Well... Assault, CTF, Infection, KOTH, Oddball, Territories, Juggernaut, Slayer, and VIP, yay!
Playlists include Rumble Pit, Social Slayer, Social Skirmish, Multi-Team, DLC Big Team and FFA, Dub EXP
Lone Wolves, Team Objective, Team Slayer, Team Doubles, Squad Battle, Team SWAT, Team Snipers, and MLG
Coming to a close, lets talk about all the cool medals
Each medal is unique, like a flower's pedals
There are way too many medals for me to list here
But you'll get a lot along the way, have no fear
Last on the list and sometimes misleading, there is a system for player rank
The system goes one-to-fifty, if you don't do well, it can really tank
Beginning at one and ending at fifty
The ranking system is pretty nifty
But there's one thing I dont like about Halo 3
It's that coveted Recon Armor thingy
Some people just need to give it a rest
Because Recon is only given to the best
People need to learn that you shouldn't ask
It just makes things harder, such an unwanted task
Answering all those questions about the Recon Armor
Master Chief is already quite the charmer
So please Halo gamers, for Bungie's sake
Give the Recon Armor stuff a very long break
And now for the last thing I'd like to say to Bungie
Thanks for the great game guys, I love Halo 3!
