I've been modding Halo to make it possible to beat it in less than 3 hours. Making homing rockets shoot from the Assault Rifle, grenades to be banshees on 2 of the outdoor levels, changing jump height, etc. Anyway, the final result was me beating the game in 2 hours 4 minutes. It's under 3 hours, so that's good enough. So, I check my difficulty selections, and it was the same old choices.

I took a video, and it was just over 10 gigs before I encoded it with divx. Now, it's 680 something megs.

Want proof?

I'd still like the bittorrent tracker, but I guess if you contact me on AIM, I can send you the file.

It'll just take a seriously long time to send as it's almost 700 megs.

Man, you are saying that you have never heard of "Going Nowhere Fast". Its a huge competition on HBO that finished a little while back. No modding, Xbox only, Legendary only, fastest runs possible. Their total time was... one second... err... 2 Hours 15 Minutes. Pretty Impressive. Download the stuff here. http://nikon.bungie.org/misc/goingnowhere/status.html

Then you will see that you are not quite so good as you think you are.

The guy that won The Maw probably started on the maw, and beat it in that time. Same with all the others. Then they just took all the other fastest times, and added them up. I'm not bragging over the fact that I can beat the game in 2 hrs (give or take 5 minutes). I'm saying that the immortal difficulty doesn't exist.

I was going to do an un-modded game as well. Thanks for the link though. I'll download it and watch them. Maybe get a few pointers as well.

There are tons of rumors in Halo talking about if you beat the game and everything. The Immortal diffictulty is just one of them. I've heard of one where you can play as an elite in multiplayer if you beat the game entirely on all profiles or something, (some stupid reason). I don't really think Halo has a bonus for beating all the levels on every difficulty, it's just not that type of game.

That is a lie as well. I'm sure many people have beat the game on all profiles and all difficulties. Me being one of them. Both XBOX and PC versions. Also, if you only had 1 profile, it wouldn't be too much of a problem. Even more, on xbox, you could just play co-op, and as you beat a level, both profiles get marked as beating that level on the current difficulty.

unecessary to mod. you can beat it in 2 hours 5 mins (proven) if you are madly good. See going nowhere fast videos. that is on legendary, did I mention?

Yes, I have already downloaded a few. Learned a few things like the trick in the POA where you don't need to go to the captain to get the animation, the banshee under the bridges in AOTCR, and a few others.

Some don't seem like they are on Legendary though. I mean, just running into a group of elites and coming out only losing a few bars of health? If I did that, I'd die within seconds.

Yeah. That is easy. Now do it on Legendary. And what do you mean "screwing up the game"? You mean modding? It's not like you can't just get the maps off of the CD and overwrite the modded maps.

They are all on Legendary. Once you get insanely good, running into a bunch of Elites and kicking butt isn't that big of a deal.

How do you expect me to send you something, when you have no way of my contacting you in your profile?
