Why, in your opinion, do people kiss my ass?


Because, you are the -blam!-.

Actually, me and Obbi are tight. This isn't even through Bungie.net, as I know him from other things, so I have my own reasons

So, don't call me an ass kisser, ever; I wouldn't want to label you as one of the people who got "sad" when he revealed who he actually was...

Know Obbi in real life, eh? What an accomplishment, your mother must be proud. I wasn't calling YOU an ass kisser, anyways. I was talking about the Obbi fanatics out there. I still don't see what's so great about him.

And I don't think anyone was sad when he revealed his true self. I know I wasn't.

Right, I think we need a little attention drawn to us Aussie's over here. There is no "expos, fairs or anything of the like to keep our appetite wet until the "release date" of our favorite game and fair enough the Brits droning about a release date of 11th Nov but here in Australia we don’t even know if we will be getting it in "NOV". All I have seen is a few weak 2-3 pages in the Aussie XBox mag over the past 12 months, not that I complain about them, as any info is read and re-read.

What I would like to see is my fellow Southern Hemisphere mates to somehow have our own gathering so we can sharpen our skills till the time comes to kick it to our fellow gamers above the equator. Don’t mean to bump, just want some Halo 2 action down under!

Whoever said Penny Arcade hasn't been good since 01 should be shot and then hung for good measure.

Come on people. Let's stay on topic. I think we've had enough discussion of Obbi's arse already. ;)

Ahem.


Don't worry MasterZoom, you're in good company. You'd be surprised how many Aussies are on b.net.

As to when we'll be seeing Halo 2 down here, there've heard vague allusions to a world-wide simultaneous release. I'm pretty sure that Europe is getting it on Nov. 9, and there was one report of even New Zealand getting it on the 9th. And if the Kiwis get it before us, there will be blood spilt, don't you worry. :)

You could find someone you trust in america to get a copy for you then send it to you.

That doesn't work. US versions of Halo will be in the NTSC format, while the Australian version is in PAL. Since everybody has a PAL TV in Australia, it will turn out black and white or something (that happened to a friend of mine who bought an NTSC-format DVD and tried to play it). Also the resolutions are out by like 4 pixels each way or something - PAL is slightly higher-res while NTSC is slightly higher frame-rate. Or something. Which is why you can always tell whether the TV show you are watching was produced in the US - it will be slightly fuzzier than a programme made locally, or in Britain, for example.

I remember when Penny Arcade used to be all about the funny. Now it's all... different. I fear change!

Could some one who's going to PAX and playing Halo 2 find this out for me and potentionally many more people...

How powerful is the battle rifle?

Firstly see how powerful it is scoped i.e. if it'll do 3 headshot kills while scoped effectively making it a slighty more akward pistol.

And secondly how powerful is it non-scoped and how accurate is it. It fires in 3 shot bursts so it'd make sense that it'd be as powerful as shooting 3 scoped shots but it the Zanzibar demonstration when he destroys the ghost with the BR he makes much lighter work of it scoped than non-scoped suggesting that there's some problems with its accuracy non-scoped.

Also to anyone from Bungie if they're reading this. Any chance of public demonstrations of Halo 2 outside of the US? I'm also suprised that the Halo 2 demo is still going on at PAX given recent events and that they used to slag off the single player in the same so much...

It would be a good punishment for them...

As long as the ninjas don't have a problem with it, I'm going to shakey cam as much gameplay footage as I can. So, hopefully, we can get an answer for you.

OK, once again:

This thread is for chat only as b.net currently doesn't have a chat option. So no forums or sites. And once you've posted a link don't post it again.

With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

You know, I normally wouldn't edit a post of yours for having your own opinion, but is there a reason that you're being a -blam!- lately? - Maka

Well at least I know Shai didn't edit his own post again, lol. Let's just get that video footage at Penny! Man this thread kinda got out of hand with all this crap and what not. Please just stay on topic and talk about Penny. Are you ok Shai? You've been acting kind of strange.
