Yea, I guess

For a number of reasons, but I know a good amount about Machiavelli, the guy who influenced Pac to switch his name to MakaVeli after he got out of jail

He wrote these crazy ass books called "The Art of War"; if you ever want to go into the mind of a deepass person, read the books

I've read only parts of them, but there's some interesting stuff in it; that's also when he talked about faking his death to hide from his enemies

Interesting stuff altogether though...

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

All things Machiavellian or Machiavelli-influenced are interesting.

But I thought "The Art of War" was written by Master Sun Tzu. I read that last year, very interesting as well. Some of it is common sence to anyone who remotely knows how to maintain your forces in a battle/war, but some is more involved. I think I'll reread it to catch some more interesting stuff that I might've missed.

Or are their two books with that title?

Two books with the title

I always hear about Sun Tzu, and he made a book called "The Art of War"; I don't know too much about this, so I'm not so sure

Machiavelli made "The Seven Books on the Art of War"; that's what I actually meant

A little more history for ya...

Just to tie this all back into Halo...

Halo is one of the only FPS's I've ever played where you can actually see the effects of heeding Sun Tzu's advice. If you keep the principles of The Art of War in mind while playing Halo, you'll see that they're very effective.

Just another reason that Halo is truly great.

jerstud56 - I like my name - remember it cause you'll see "____ was kill by jerstud56" a lot on XBL ;). I also like Joey's. First time I saw it I laughed and added him to my XBL friends.

What does your name mean anyway?

  • 04.26.2004 9:11 PM PDT

bah

Other than my own, yours. Although most people probably don't appreciate what the Shia-Hulud really is. let me put it this way, a Shia-hulud could kick the crap ot of the MC (unless he was on a boat, they don't like water (and for good reason)) and they could techinically eat a freight train whole. Scared yet? Shai-Hulud is a kickass name (pathetic me, it had been so long since I read Dune, that when I saw your name, I had to Google it because it looked so framilar).

Shai-Hulud, that was the name of those enormous things? I suppose you wouldn't be scared if you were, hhmmm can't spell his name, Muad' Dib, or wherever the apostrophies go. Favorite name, Kenny is a good one, so is Captain K-mart, Walmart Warrior, Admiral Albertson's, Lieutenant Long's, Sergeant Safeway, Major Macy's, G.I. Trader Joe's, and General Stor.

Yea, Raw Sip is fairly recent

I'm sure Rip Sauce is going far back, too old for me to know
