What is the mystery level/game for people without live? They mentioned it awhile back in a weekly update, and it was speculated in a OXM issue a long time ago. They said it nearly got cut, but didn't in the end. Any ideas on/anyone know what it is?

I really hope it isn't MC or Elite bots specifically for mp in the end. Something about Halo multiplayer I always loved was it was human vs human or not at all. There was no learning how to trick the AI, it was something actually intelligent. (possibly not my brother however)

I was hoping for something more down the lines of endless waves of convenant while you try to defend a static location. AKA The Fall of Reach. I posted on it before, and there was speculation an online version of it was being theorized according to the rumor mole at OXM. I'm crossing my fingers that is it, but it might just be too much to ask for.

I hear ya 100%, dawg. Bungie can't accomodate everybody, and they shouldn't pander to the stupid-people (ie those with no discrimination) lobby. Bots are corny. Let the stupid people play Timesplitters if they want--trust me, they'll be just as happy.

Just because you want bots doesn't make you dumb. Sheesh. Does that mean if you cant get a high speed conection because of your location your automaticly stupid? The bots Bungie is capable of making would make the Timesplitter bots look like complete retards. Which they are.

I really like the ' Defend against the seige ' idea. I could see myself playing that while waiting for Halo 3.

yeah! bots r cool. well not in all games, but take Perfect Dark as example, the bots were so good that i was afraid of some of them.

If it is a 'Siege' mode, that would be AWSOME for the Demo ( if there is one ) that way, you get MP, the ability to play by yourself, and dont give away any of the surprises of single player. Dope.

Brute Force did 4-player co-op, I can't see any reason Bungie couldn't do the same, unless they simply didn't want to, or it didn't make sense in the storyline.

They said you're a pistol-betch, whatever that means.~WebMaster

Brute Forces' 4 player co-op sucked face. That is why Bungie wouldn't mimick it...

I can see it all now...
You and a hundred other marines waiting at your base. suddenly, the ground begins to rumble. you can hear the whine of ghosts off in the distance. You look in the distance to see a lone grunt come over the hill. He turns around and says "this way", pointing in your direction. Then thousands of covenant of all species run over the crest of the hill and start firing their weapons.
There would be so much chaos.

4 player survival mode.

you basically get swamped with enemys and it gradually gets harder


It's something I've always wanted. Doing a last stand at the Fall of Reach reactors would make my day. It's crazy, but if that could be programmed into Halo 1, I would be willing to wait an entire extra month for Halo 2. It would be just that -blam!-diddy-blam!-ing good!

That would be awesome if all the other marines were other people over XBox Live.

Could you imagine the lag though?
