Subject: Did you ever give nicknames to the Halo CE things in general?

I remember I used to call the elites w/ energy swords "tool guys!", because I thought they were holding a wrench.

That multiplayer map with the water flow and the bridge, "milky way".

Hunters, "big guys"

Grunts, "little guys"

Jackals were "shield guys"

Damn this is nostalgic.. I remember I used to play this with my dad when I was so young

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

Flood carrier forms were Dougs, I don't remember why but that's what me and my friends called them.

"The Rescue of Pops Ghostly" veteran.

We always called the Plasma Rifle spawn on Dammy crap room, as it sucked to spawn there during TS.

We also called the Flood Infection forms popcorn or cabbages.

Live Long and Consume Banana Oil, ya' Spoony Bards!

I used to call the Flood Carrier Forms Balloons. I mean, they pop so spectacularly! I also used to think of the Flood combat forms as a combination of the Xenomorph from the Alien series, and The Thing from the John Carpenter movie, so I always called them Alien Things, although it really was more of an apt description than anything else.

Uh...the brute Shot wasn't in Halo: Combat Evolved; it was in Halo 2. If you want to talk about nicknames for things in Halo 2, you could start a thread in that forum.

Me and my friends always called the Ghost a pony (We were pretty young at the time). When I found out it wasn't actually called the pony, I was devastated.
