Subject: Vidmaster Endure: A Tale of Frustration

Hi

Based on a true story...
Prologue
So, i woke up like every saturday, went to play some Halo 3 with 3 of my friends, we started a Custom Game, we were playing like only 5 minutes and I asked out of nowhere, "Hey wanna try Endure?", I expected a "Go eff yourself" or "I dont want recon", but they said yes... i was so excited, i was finally going to end that vidmaster that most people say its hard.

I put my ODST disk in my 360... invited my 3 friends and we started the session.


Set 1: We started with the wrong foot there
Like you know the first wave is: "A bunch of grunts and jackals that dont do anything", of course we finished it, no deaths and we though "This is gonna be so easy", Second wave we lost 2 lives... damn. The third wave we lost another one, i had a bad feeling about everything, but we finished the first Round with 8 lives, fair enough.
The Second round the WORST skull EVER was on: "Catch". It literally transformed a lil' grunt into a living grenade launcher that never reloads. We died a total of 5 times, OMFG. frustration began. but we finished with 7 lives. back to the beggining
The third round had Catch + Black eye, i never mined black eye cause i never die but either getting stuck or hammered in the face. so no problem :).... for me, i died once, my friends... 6, but we survived.... and failed the bonus round
Veredict: We can still do it... i guess :|


Set 2: We are back!
We were SO happy, 2 staright round with no deaths, we were in the top of the world <-- Noob. We got 7+4+4.... 13 lifes :D
Third round.... We lost 8 lifes... yup, our hopes were lost the game depended on this Bonus Round.... we completed it.... We go to set 3 with 13 lives again
Veredict: I think we might do it :D


Set 3: D'oh!
I brough the game down in this set.
First round, i died once, thats it, "Oh well, 15 lives it could be worse"
Second Round, i died 4 times and my friends 3.... damn! I felt HORRIBLE
Third Round, again i died 4 and my friends 3.... WOW... damn I sucked :(
Bonus Round, we did it! :). A total of 13 lives
Veredict: "Alex stop getting killed by stckies!" D:


Set 4: Frustration
We started kind of happy i mean, if you have tried this Vidmaster you would have said "OMG 13 lives in the last Set! We WILL do this :D!", we did and this happened.
In the first Round we died 5 times, 3 were mine i couldnt believe it. 12 lives :)
Secon Round We lost 9 lifes, 5 were mine, HOLY SH**. We had 7 lives, back to the begining

Third and Final Round: "Come on guys we can do this dont die!" yelled my friend.
W1) prefect Wave :D
W2) Died once (guess who) :)
W3) Perfect Wave :D
W4) ... Are you ready? We lost EVERY LIFE, and one of my friends was out before tha last wave... it was 3 of us agains 2 grav hammers, 2 fuel rods and a bizillion jetpack brutes....We were optimists and we tried so hard, it all came down to this.
W5)....3 seconds later we all died... FFFFUUUUUUUUU-

PreGame Lobby:
HOLY SH** i was pissed of we all yelled so hard (except for 1)... I felt horrible, i though it was my fault (and guess what? it was in fact my fault)
Veredict: God doesn't want you to have Recon foo!


Epilogue:
2 weeks later (or so) we tried again and we got the vidmaster... but i will never forget this game... the only game i ever yelled so hard at my TV. But i think thats the funny part of the Co-op Vidmasters: "It gather friends and tore them apart". I wanted cake... but i was a lie :(

Linky.

Thanks for reading my "Wall of text". :P
