bah

So, my friend and I were playing AotCR, and I pointed out we were underwater at the beginning. He couldn't believe that, so I said we'll go get a banshee and go up to the top of the first room to show him. Seeing as we had already nuked the 3, we started over, but decided to play on Easy so as not to waste any time (it was very late). We were cruising through, when we got to the tank, and he, being religious, said "I'm about to get into the second most powerful thing in the universe, right after god." He got into the tank, blew some stuff up. I made a comment about how nothing could possibly kill me in the tank on Easy, nothing, not even "god." Someone somewhere heard me say that.

Now, I assume it was karma. I really don't want this to turn into a religious discussion, but knowing people here this topic will be locked in 10 minutes due to said discussion, but I got horribly pned about 4 times in a row. The first time I was standing by the tank sniping the banshee with the rockets, when the wraith shot the side of the tank and made it "run over me." Then a lucky grunt pegged me. A vehicle that exploded flew through the air and killed me. Then some stray grenades from an explosion did me in. I took back my foolish statement, and all was well again.

Well, maybe it was karma, or maybe Bill Gates was listening to me through the little green gem on top of my friend's Xbox, but something was very very wrong with that whole thing.

Anyone turning this into a religious thing will be shot, decapitated, and proptly eaten by rabid wolves. The god reference was in there from our conversation. Let's keep it that way.

on easy, eh? that's... sad? were you on some c0cktail of narcotics at the time? surely you can offer some reasonable explanation. maybe it was just the game letting you know you're a bit (and i use the term loosely) rusty.

As I said, 4 completely random flukes that were totally unavoidable because I was caught off guard. Had it been Legendary, I would have been a lot more careful and certainly a grunt couldn't have pegged me with a 'nade! My friend naturally smiled and was all smug, saying god kicked my ass. I know what it was thoguh, I wasn't killing the Covenant around me, and the AI took advantage of that. Next time, I'll just take the moment to kill whatever is near me so I can rocket snipe in peace.

I am not rusty!

And the water is on the ceiling of the first big room in AotCR. If you bring a banshee up there it's easy to see. AotCR is underwater.

Damn gnomes. Ever since I stole their yellow banshee they've been -blam!-ing with me.

For it is written, "He who toucheth the mighty all powerfull Yellow Banshee shall be cursed by gnome-kind. Amen."

Hey Banshee what was that one cheat again, lol?

I've never tried to get up on AoTcR where the water is. Must play now, see you guys later.

Oh, this one?

In the MAW, before the jump, stop at the ledge and press this key combination:

press X, Y, Y, X, A, B, Left trigger, Right trigger, start, start, Left and right trigger, A and B, Left on the digital pad and Up on the Right stick, Back and Both triggers, Y, A, Press both sticks, now pick up Controller 2 and press Left trigger on that and Right trigger on Controller 1, then change and press X and B on Controller 3 and Y and up on the Digital Pad on Controller 4 and 1, then change controller two to the dvd playback Remote and hold Title and 7 while you press X, Y, B, A on controllers 1 and 3. Then power off your console and power on. If done correctly you will be running Halo in Enhanced mode. (Thuss enabling Yellow Bashees, Red Wraiths and a mode where you play as a gnome)

And of course, it has to be done on Legendary.

You forgot your pictures, proof of how it is real. Let everyone see that it's a real cheat.
