I play halo2 about 99% of the time, and the other day I decided to play halo:ce for its campaign and past 'the poa' and 'halo' on legendary, single player. Is this good for how little I play it? I think I kick ass regardless of how many immature 9yearold gamers call me 'noob' or 'fanboy' or another one of those retarded insults used by no-life gamers who get into fights over which game is better.

I didn't die very often but at the first fort on 'halo' the covies killed everyone without even climbing up the ramp to get on top... so I had to make a runner down near the cave and pistol snipe everyone but I ran out of ammo and was left with no options. For some weird reason foehammer came before I had killed everyone, so I quickly grabbed the warthog and got out of there - strangely enough, all of the enemies had disappeared too :) I had won once I got to the warthog because I can just tap an enemies and they die, combind that with my lethal driving and instinct to run stuff over and theres no stoppin' me! I have a lot of fun playing both games, its sad that some people take a side (probably to get publicity. Would you make a hate site about something that noone cares about?)

I can adapt my strategies pretty fast. My dad got quite pissed off when I played goldeneye rouge agent and got twice as far as him in 2days compared to where he got in three weeks :D My cheap adapting is the reason why I play halo2, it was great being able to change but some people saw the e3 trailer and thought the whole game would be that detailed and others discovered that you couldn't pistol snipe, so a lot of people decided not to play it.


Question: So if you don't play halo2 then I suppose you play halo1? But how could you do that if you've been playing halo1 it since it came out? Since it doesn't have xbl theres no replay value and it isn't often that you have enough people for a system link... do halo1 players just play other games and say halo2 sucks to get publicity? No, seriously - if you are a halo1 player do you play other games too? Because I find that halo1 gets boring really quickly... probably the same with halo2 because I don't have live :( hmm, I find everything boring!!!! Maybe I should start playing runescape again for competition and beating the crap out of other players and stealing their cash... thats really fun, stealing other players items never gets boring because you know that they're feeling really pissed off :)

I wonder if my computer could handle halo... maybe if I upgraded it. That would cost about $300 though. I don't like fps's on pc, too much clicking!!! The mouse just feels like crap compared to the xbox trigger... mmmmmm triggers... :D

xbc just tricks your xbox in to thinking its playing over a LAN. it allows you to link your xbox with other xboxs over the internet to play halo1 online. www.xbconnect.com

I beg to differ; A true Halo fan never gets bored of the game. It never gets old.

I am a true halo fan. just look how long ive been a member. I have read all of the books and beaten halo 1 on every difficulty just so it looked cool when i looked at it. but guess what??? i think halo 1 is better than halo 2 and ive gotten sick of halo 2. sure its still a little fun from time to time, and yes i have live, but ehh, whatever. I havent played live in at least 2 months. ehh, what ever though, its just my opinion i spose.

and yes Xbox Connect is so you can play over the net with halo and other games.

Yes, I'm talking about Halo 1; I'm fed up with Halo 2 also.

I've been a member since Halo aswell; This is my 4th account I've had in that time. (I had a problem with the last account and before that i just kept wanting to change my name.)

xbc: I think I'll pass... you wouldn't want to see my computer trying to run a multiplayer game like that!

XBC is a program that runs on your computer. The game itself is still played on the X-Box. What XBC does is trick your connection into thinking that you're connected to a LAN, thus letting you connect to others servers and play. It's similar to live, only no voice chat for Halo 1.

All of you are fools for being a "true Halo fan". Neither of you (or me) have been here for very long. So your logic doesn't hold up. And "true Halo fan" is some person who loves Halo. That's it.

Who are you to insult others? You've already admitted to being 14, so to hear you judge other because of their age is very amusing. After all, those "9 year olds" are only five years younger than you. Besides, you're the one that starts almost all the arguments on this forum.
