About the last update. I just wanted to express my opinion about it. I consider myself a pro, I have played thousands of games in Team Slayer alone, so I think I'm entitled to an opinion.
First, Colosus, one of my favs, I feel is now ruined, no sniping (BOO) its all about the "newb" combos, and if you don't get one yer screwed. If its gotta be that way why not start everyone with one, and let em have at it, and definately put the sniper back in.
Second, WAY too many dual matches, I personally like variety in weapons, not just duals.
Third, as much as I love sniping, with having Team Snipers as a seperate matchmaking game, I see no reason to have sniper matches in Team Slayer. I wanna see sword matches brought back in, there is not a lot of skill involved, but they are hella fun. I mean com'on we got rocket matches, why not swords?
And one last thing, when I play it seems that the games get stuck on certain maps for the night, not any variety. With all the great maps on this game I don't understand why I keep playing the same ones over and over. Is there anything that can be done about that or is that just the luck of the draw?
Anyways thanks for your time, and allowing me to vent.

hey, i just read somewhere that Bungie is working on an xbox live arcade game for 360's marketplace. Whether this is true or not, i can only image the sweetness of an arcade game where you are given continuos flows of enemies ALA geometry wars, except they are grunts, jackels, etc. With each wave becoming progressively more difficult maybe lvl 100 could be like 10 hunters and 20 elites or something like that. Regardles, this would be the best thing ever to happen to xbox live arcade especially with point-hos trying to get the highest possible score. Bungie, I'd be totally fine with you taking abreak from Halo 3 to develop a game of this nature, just think abou it, it'd be totally sick! Let the wet-dreams ensue.

Hello,

I am a representative from the “HALO 2 for XP!” group, and I would like to invite you to join us as we begin a protest to bring Halo 2 to Windows XP. As you may know, Microsoft has made a decision to create Halo 2 for Microsoft’s new operating system, Windows Vista. This is clearly a marketing strategy and is in fact a slap in the face to the dedicated Halo 2 fans (like you). Join our group at this website, http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/94403/Group/GroupHome.aspx
Just join, post up your demands in the forums there. And invite your friends. It’s that easy.

Thank you,

Your fellow Halo 2 gamer.
SCREW HALO 2 FOR MICROSOFT VISTA! FREAKING GIVE US XP!
