I have been a long time user of it and has helped me at a lot of tournaments. I was just wondering who else can pull of the double beatdown consistently.

Double beatdown is awesome. Once I started using it I got real good at close range...then suddenly I stopped using it and now I gotta remember to do it more.

Double beatdown is also called double melee. It doesn't work in Halo 2 though. But in Halo, you can melee, throw grenade, and melee again. If you're good enough you'll pull off a double b i t c h slap! (I haven't used in multiplayer, but I use it a lot in campaign.)

There is a double melee in Halo 2, it's just different than the Halo CE double melee.
Halo 1:
Melee - grenade - melee
Halo 2:
Melee - reload - melee

It's really useful in multiplayer.

Not consistently, but it has saved me a few times on xbc.

There is a double beatdown in Halo 2. I haven't mastered it, but I know it works. It involves meleeing with one weapon, then pressing Y quickly to switch to your other weapon, then meleeing with that. Very possible.

its another halo1 glitch that seems purposely implemented. you cant continue the cycle to 3 or more melees, only 2.

then there is backpack reloading
but the kicker is a switch double melee... oh yeah! with a PP secondary, youve won!

the double melee in halo2 is kinda neat. you have to have a full clip or a plasma gun, tho.
melee, then press y or x, then melee again.

the fun one that is 10 times better is hte melee, x, fire attack.
with the BR its an instagib.

Actually it works quite well in Halo 2 when you get good at it.
