i think a sling shot full of crap and teletubbie as a gernade would be the best combo EVER!

I would tak two old assault rifles, but two pistols is the next best thing. :) Does anyone know if the old AR is coming back anyways?

I recall the shotgun being very powerful but not reliable when it comes to how fast it shot. So needless to say I would go with the SMG/Shotgun combo. So the SMG would fill in the blanks.

For a second here, I'm going to bring in a gun that isn't in Halo. My friends, I speak of a 57mm Anti-Tank gun. Shoot it like a rocket launcher and it is recoilless, best part is, ITS REAL! Used in the Korean War before the 3.25in Rocket launcher was introduced, the thing fired 57mm HEAT artillery rounds. Imagine, 57mm of hot lead death hurtling toward the enemy, oh yeah, best of all multiply it by two. I can see it now, exploding grunts. Don't worry, it's a good hurt!

Battle Rifle to cut em down at longer ranges and a shotgun for short ranges. other than that double needlers would be good, but its hard to kill jackels with them.

in Halo 1 anyway, plasma pistol and Assault rifles was ideal for taking down elites. Charge it up for their shields, finish them off with the AR.

yeah and because its a battle rifle so you can actually follow up on the first plasma pistol with the scope

Well, the fact that they are tweaking things is true. Frankie said that they did a MP and they used the Double SMGS and the game ended as fast as it does if you where using rocket launchers. Still though i Pray that they incorporate the Magnum Pistols into the game. Although i am sure that they would have to amp down the power cause dang. That would jack sombody. Another good combo is plasma rifel and BR. Cause anyonge can doge a charged plasma blast, and by the time it even got close to the other guy; if he had any skill with the pistol you would already be dead. So i am not a proponet of the plasma pistal and submachine gun combo.

Doesn't anybody realize that the weapons have straps, I know most of you have read the books, re-read them. The loaded weapon can be held behind him when the MC reloads the empty weapon, meaning just about any combo can be made...

Morons.

For those of us who haven't played marathon, what made the shotguns so great?



Well my friend, the shotguns from The MARATHON TRIlOGY is only the BEST weapon there is. YOU CAN WEILD TWO OF EM' . and their handheld. the best thing about it is the loading feature in wich i QUOTE(I won't waste my time trying to expain the loading mechanism to you--Your primitive mind could never grasp its complex nature.) end of QUOTE. it also shoot quite speedily.
So there you have it!

I picked duel pistols cause i thought it would sweet seeing MC kicking ass with 2 pistols and any way there were only a few other choices that werent outrageous like the only ones that are actually really possible is duel pistols, duel needlers and a smg and a plasma pistol.
So far the duel pistols is winning so im happy.

If they add plasma swords, I'll finally be able to put my god-like Jedi Knight skills to good use! I used to take on two or three other guys with just a lightsaber and go entire games without dying. Of course, now I can never find anyone to play with. But they probably wouldn't be all powerful in Halo 2 (ie: can't deflect bullets, energy blasts automatically).

the best combos ever would be either the ShOTGUNS or the marine PISTOLS.

The plasma rifle is one handed , because when elites melee you its only with one hand

I voted for dual pistols, because I'm assuming there is going to be a 'magnum' type pistol like the one in Halo: First Strike. Heh heh, fun to imagine using dual pistols like some kind of Matrix guy or Max Payne and magnums to boot!
