If you send me a friend request I'll show you some map tricks

Gamertag: EP1TAPH
(like Epitaph, but with a "one")

Also, with bouncing, I'd like to add it's pretty obvious when someone zooms 160ft into the air, which is dangerous against snipers. Also, some maps seem to be made certain ways at certain point TO bounce out of.

Zanzibar: What is the point of having holes in the roof at all unless you're supposed to be on top of the power building?

Burial Mounds: THE MOST OBVIOUS. There's no reason to have that gray apparatus next to the beam rifle other than to jump on that ledge that has no other function than to bounce from. Then, when you're up, theres 4 rocks that make a STAIRWAY to get out!! THEN when out, there's plenty (and I mean PLENTY) of roaming room and hiding places that shouldn't have been otherwise textured for walking on.

Ascension: The tall tower has no reason to not have an invisible wall at the very top inhibiting someone from landing on top.

Coagulation, Lockout, Ivory Tower, Colossus, and the others are pretty worthless, but I just wanted to justify Zanzibar and ESPECIALLY Burial Mounds...

Hey Frankie,

First off, I know the new Xbox 360 has a removable cover, so I was wondering if Bungie was planning on making their own cover for the 360. I have the limited edition Halo Xbox, it its clear green plating definitely owns compared to the normal plain black Xbox. Just having a cover, similar to the limited edition Xbox plating, for the 360 would be sweet.
Second I was what to do with this -blam!- player I met online once. I was playing match making a game of CTF on Coagulation. The game starts and I grab the sniper rifle and start to snipe from the roof of the base. Then another player starts firing and taunting me. I try to get away from him by going through the teleporter and start to snipe by the rocks. The other player follows me and continues to taunt and fire at me. Now I can’t snipe because every time I try to target some one I end up being shot by my team mate. I can’t boot him because he never fires enough to kill me, and I can’t kill him because he would have the satisfaction of booting me from the game. This not only affecting me and my own stats, I am unable to help me team by taking out the other team with the sniper rifle. And finally since he never really kills me I can’t think of anything that would prove that he was being a total loser. How would I report such player? And is their way you guys would be able to prove his ridicules behavior?

HEY FRANKIE,

I AM NOT SURE HOW THIS GOT PASSED YOU GUYS

BUT WHO'S BRIGHT IDEA WAS IT TO PUT A BANCHEE IN ASCENSION IN A RIFLES ONLY SLAYER MATCH.

HELLO THAT MEANS THERE IS NO ROCKET LAUNCHER JUST A BATTLE RIFLE WHERE IT WOULD NORMALLY SPAWN.

SO THE FIRST PERSON IN THE BANCHEE CAN JUST STAY IN IT A FLY AROUND KILLING ALMOST FOREVER.

IT GETS EXTREMELY ANNOYING AND ONE SIDED I HAVE PLAYED SEVERAL ROUNDS OF THIS GAME AND WHOEVER GETS THE BANCHEE FIRST WINS ITS -blam!-

Is anyone else sick to death of the stupid quotes or facts people put in their signatures? I mean, how -blam!- can you get? Especially the one about 98% of teenagers smoking pot...if you have that crap in your sig, then you need to smoke a bowl and find out the truth -blam!-...hahahaha

If youre of the 98% that agree with mmowatt 100%, like me, say so.

However, mmowatt, keep in mind most Halo players can't even drive yet, just give them time. You don't have to call em -blam!-. I say in about 40% of a decade, 58% of the 2% will try it and 95% of them will like it. Oh and side note, sometimes it's fun to play halo online afterwards. EVERYTHING LOOKS SO CRAZY! It's like a different world almost! 98% of teenagers can't be wrong!!

Halo 2 is by far the best game I have ever played...But then there came bridgers and modders.

Bungie has to take the Banshee out in Team Rifles on Ascension. One banshee took my whole team out single handedly. Also in Double Team King on Ascension the banshee needs to be taken out. I hope Bungie really reads this crap because those two things really need to be adjusted on matchmaking. Thank you.

Is it possible to have a new option in the play list similar to double team but instead of having only two teams of two make it like 8 teams of 2. Sorta a big team version of double team.

I think that would be a cool game type to have.

I saw on a E3 brief preview that The Xbox360 will be backwards compatible. They talked alot about what to expect from the 360 as well as the Xbox Live. For those of you who are wondering about your accounts for the new 360 there will be 2 i repeat 2 different types of xbox live. Your accounts that are active will automatically be on the silver edition of xbox live. And silver is free except for the games that you have to pay for to play. The Gold version however does cost money only because it allows you to chat with your friends via xbox camera that will come out sometime. Otherwise you do not need to worry about your xbox live account having to be renewed for the xbox 360

The Xbox 360 controller will be able to have a usb plug in if you wish it. it will mostly be used tho for trickle charging the batteries in you controller while you play, or for your friends when they wish to play xbox on yours 360. There are two usb ports in the front behind port doors 1 and 2. there will also be a 3rd usb port in the back fo the xbox 360
