The above is my post that has been re-started at Bungie.net

I've been sending the idea to Bungie, Microsoft and OXM for over a year now - even sent a couple of faxes to Shane Kim and Robbie Bach, oops. ;-)

Brief Synopsis: 1-4 Players either Split-Screen, LAN or Xbox Live (if possible)
One life to live against an ever-increasing onslaught of Covenant forces.

They attack from all angles with different squads and tactics each time. Extensive stat tracking is available both off-line and online.

This would be a great pat-on-the-back to the HALO LAN community that supported the Xbox and HALO to more than 4 million copies worldwide.

Plus, for those who don't have Live and don't want to go through to the Story Mode to get some action, they could improve their skills in the GRINDER MODE.

You could even customize the gametype for "Extraction" or "Escort" - or customize starting equipment, and maybe even 1 call for re-inforcements each session (like a squad of Marines or ODSTs).

THIS WOULD BE VERY EASY TO IMPLEMENT AND WOULD HAVE A GREAT IMPACT ON THE HALO COMMUNITY!

Thanks for your time,

Justan Lee

Sorry partner, but in real battle - that's all you have and that's why they call it "Grinder Mode". ;-)

Besides, just duck and cover or if you have 3 friends over, they can help you out.

Hmm, Gimme one of those Halo 2 machine gun stands, and I'll be set.
That would be fun. I also was thinking about Halo 2, 4 player Legendary... It would be cool, because you times the guys by 4.... Whee. Too easy to get outta levels though...

Wrong forum. New Mombasa is the Halo 2 forum, and you've already got a thread on this there.
