Frankie I have a question for your next "What's Update"
Is there a difference between the Spartan and the Elite? I love using the elite, don't know why, just do. However, many ignorent a-holes constantly refer to me as "a noob" for still using the elite. They usually die shortly there after. I just would like to know the truth. Am I a "noob" or should these people go suck a fish.

hey invaderdx, you are not a n00b. i used to use the elite. i think i know why people call you a n00b, because when an enemy uses a shotgun, its easier to aim at the belly and shoot. but since the elite's head is lowered toward the belly, its easier to shoot there, because the head is lower down, so you might consider switching to spartan.

The communicator does plug into the top from what I can see.

Don't know what you are looking at but I don't see anything that resembles a headset jack. Anyone want to take bets that the XBOX 360 communicator will also be wireless!!?? Seems like a no brainer to me.

You can't call Halo 3 "Halo 360" because what would Halo 4 be called? Halo 360 2?

I suggest coming up with another text-title, much like Halo 1's "Combat Evolved." Maybe fix everything wrong with Halo 2 for the new game and call it "Halo 3: We Were Just Joking With Halo 2, Fellas. This One's Somewhat Realistic Like Combat Evolved. Man You Should Have Seen The Looks On Your Faces"

Just a quick question about the "unreliable" games that don't list as wins/losses. Why is that if the other team completely quits it registers as "unreliable"? I've been in three games recently where the other team got owned and all of them simply quit before the game was over, and in the end it always shows up as an "unrelaible" game and doesn't count towards the win total. Is this something that can be fixed or is it simply an easy "cheat" for a losing team to use so they don't lose points after getting beaten badly?

Hey, whoever said the halo 3 is coming out for xbox 1, can you tell me how you found that out. I'm not saying your wrong or anything I just want to know.

I don't think they're coming out with a HAlo 4 because from what I understand they were only going to have 2 Halos but they couldn't fit everything they wanted on the second one because there wasn't enough space so now thy're making a halo 3.

I don't want to start an argument with anyone but why is killing everyone with a rocket launcher or a sniper rifle or something else a bad thing? Isn't that the point of the game, to anialate the enemy? P.S: Please forgive my bad spelling now and in the future.

July 5th, Awsome. That's my birthday. (singing) Happy Birthday to me!

It's only a week, not bad at all considering how good of a job you guys did on the previous 4 maps.

Frankie...i have a complaint

I was playing assault in team preview with my friends
we had everyone out of the base with around 5 seconds left
and i go to arm the bomb its 3/4 of the way armed and it said round over

just a thought but i think the sudden death should be players in a certian area

here is the link to the game stats
http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStats.aspx?panel=stats&ga meid=176574060&player=GoodPlann56

no one won the game but if we could have armed the bomb we would have one
please reply back

I think the title for Halo 3 should be something like...
Halo:Last Stand or Halo: Fall of the covenant
The second one would only be good if the Covenant aliance ended.

Everything that I say m ay not always make sanse to many people, but to me, it makes perfect sense. Can you understand everything I say?

Too many people decided to use it against people in matchmaking. If everyone had an idea of how it worked and people would not think that it would be cheating when you flew across the map, then I am sure we would still have it.

It was an extreme disappointment when they took it off for me. I totally agree with anyone who says bring it back. It was extremely enjoyable for the ones who could do it. Please look at my idea for a custom game that would be locked in my last post on page 16 if you want a little more detail on it. Number 5 I believe.

  • 05.19.2005 3:23 PM PDT

The Beatles kickass.
Also, I probably hate you.

1. No, as you just said, it can be used in matchmaking, which would be bad. The Sword is a CLOSE range weapon...

2. Seriously, what is "The Game" from the first question?

does anybuddy like the shadow get your halo2 books out
?????????????????????????????

FRANKIE ? for you are there going to be vechile donloads

Halo CE = Lan party
Halo 2 = Live
The reason so many people think halo 2 takes no skill is because in halo ce the only competition were friends in the next room. when the same people get on live, they realize they are no where close to being the best and therefore blame their loss on unbalance in the weapons and game.

my gamercard

what is up with 2v2 CTF? that has got to be the -blam!-est game type ever. and why did bungie put odd ball on warlock? all the guy does is sit by the portal and if u come close he'll go through and if u chase him then he'll beat u down before u can get a shot unless you have a shotgun. and why put BR on walock, it's way too small for battle rifles. And 2v2 foundation(both partners get both rockets=8 kills), beaver creek(rocket and over shield=4 kills), and ascension (2 snipes looking at wachother protectong eachother=min of 24 kills) are really dumb with the weapons when playin 2on2. And ever since the update i always respawn right next to the enemy who just killed me or his partner. And what about the BR/PP combo? you guys just took it out of 2 lvls and now that combo is used in every other lvl(and no it does not take any skill to use). And finally, i've been playing for hours on end online and still i get more lag than ever!!! I read frankie talk about something that could reduce lag is this true? and if so HURRY UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
