#B - When you jump from your drop pod, you land on your face and your visor cracks. You have to play the whole game with continuously spreading spider web cracks limiting your view.

On Legendary, you land on your face and your visor shatters into your eyes, giving a whole new meaning to the blind skull effect.

10. The fact that you earn points for doing stunts on your Mongoose and that you can earn score multipliers by linking tricks together.


What?! Pulling a double backflip superman while avoiding covenant weaponsfire had better get me some sweet points!

Personally, I think an actual "skilled" person in Halo 3 is someone who knows how to win with every weapon and combo in the game, not just a single weapon like the BR, Sniper, or even the AR. Of course, that excludes me, as I have yet to get a kill with dual plasma pistols. :D

>9000: One needn't even mention the terrible, nearly unbeatable "Rampant Superintendent" boss fight, where he chases you around with an army of garbage trucks, all the while yelling "KEEP IT CLEAN!!!!!!!!!!!!1111onethousandonehundredeleven" at the top of his... lungs?

#Q - Unlike Spartan armor, ODST armor doesn't house an artificial bladder for bodily fluids. Every so often, you have to strategically find a position to relieve yourself. Brutes are attracted to the smell like a boomer to bile, so pick your corner wisely.

Zomg. I was totally gonna write a real signature but then I realized I have no idea what to put. Sooooooooooo, yeah. I'll see you in Halo 3, Halo: Reach, and/or whatever else I happen to be playing.

Oh yeah and about this saving the planet -blam!-, our great-grandkids can go get their own damn planet.

Rofl at fishing minigame. xD

We all know it will fail since you will have the SuperIntendant above your head all the time screming "Hey" "Hey" "Hey" "Hey".

Oh God... Oh God... AHHH!!! NOT AGAIN!

68. After finishing Romeo's flashback, you find out he is alive and locate him. Upon doing this, he takes off his helmet to reveal that he is the sniper from Team Fortress 2 and follows you around the rest of the game constantly saying "Medic!" in that Australian accent of his.

69. During the final cutscene, The Rookie is about to save the day when The Lonely Island runs him over with their boat, causing the game to end abruptly with the music video for "I'm on a Boat."

9. About 90% of the cut-scenes are sung.

10. The fact that you earn points for doing stunts on your Mongoose and that you can earn score multipliers by linking tricks together.

I would enjoy these two. Probably a lot more than I should.

It came from the left.

Those two unicorns from Charlie the Unicorn drag you to the Bridge of Eternal Sunshine. After following them and hearing some lame-ass song you get stuck, go back to your drop pod and realize they stole all of your weapons.

"Bungie controls everything. You have no rights. Play nice."

For the last time its TURRETS not TORRENTS. A TORRENT is either a peer to peer file sharing protocol or a violently fast stream of water. A TURRET is a self-contained weapons platform housing guns and capable of rotation. And TURRENT isn't even a word.

# 151- Bungie has stated that it is a 3-5 hour expansion. What they didn't tell you is that you can't access the final flashback unless you have played at least 2 hours 59 minutes and 59 seconds of ODST campaign. In order to stay true to their word, any slow gamers who lag behind the time table will automatically be teleported to the final flashback at 4 hours 40 minutes. If you fail to finish the flashback, the final cutscene will automatically run at 4 hours 55 minutes. At 4 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds, you will be sent back to the main menu.

# 236- Unlocked recon armor will only be available in firefight, and only in single player mode, not in general Halo 3 multiplayer.

#419- If you manage to reach the 10th level of firefight, the wave will consist of 2 scarabs, 10 brute chieftains, 20 hunters, and 15 jackal snipers. Every weapon on the map that you pick up or are holding will automatically become a plasma pistol. every level after level 10 will be identical to this one.

#512- The final level consists of fighting Tartarus' twin brother Suratrat in a Dance Dance Revolution contest. Lose at DDR and your head gets automatically crushed by the Foot of Tkur (Suratrat's gravity Crowbar) . Win at DDR and you still have to kill him the old fashioned way because he's a sore loser.

625: After finding all the becons, you must then do it again, but in a wolf form, then after you've done it that way, you have to do it yet again, but you can switch between the two!

156: One of the aspects of the game is clearing the rubble by rolling it into an ever increasing in size ball.

11. Bungie implements real-time weather effects, including a random natural disaster every 13 minutes.


I actually think that would be rather fun. Being chased by a Brute Chieftain through a hurricane, just to have the Chieftain taken out by a flying pole...
