Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

Some people get jealous or angered at other peoples' success. It's just how it works, Dusk.

"Haters make me famous."

Since when is talking trash incessantly and proving yourself completely incapable of backing it up a success? That's like saying bankrupting your business puts you in the Fortune 500.


Uh, no. Logic, as well as reasoning, represents everything I said in defense of Halo 2, aside from the miscellaneous facts here and there to help support what I said. Also, in the thread you made in response to your rage that built up inside of you after having that 10page thread devastate you, you never actually responded to my rebuttal to your last post.

Once again, you're being delusional. The only person you devastated in that thread was yourself. That much is clear to anyone with an IQ over 80.

Well I am not the one who can't grasp fundamental, logical arguments. Besides, I already said I enjoyed the debate. You're the one that got all caught up and angry with me not accepting your train of thought. Open your horizon, Dusk!

for once, can we make an "arguing and insulting each other" post for people to reply to? instead of on everyone's questions or thoughts.

So therefore, even though aim assist seems to help the "would be noobs", it also helps the pros.

Posted by: Ben2974
aim assist is almost required for console games

It's just as hard to become godly in Halo 2 as it is in any other game because the set standards of a "godly" player in Halo 2 are MUCH higher than in Halo 1.


A few excerpts from Ben's Book of Logical Arguments. And let's not forget the hilarious gem in my sig. Sorry to break it to you, but a logical argument has never been something you've ever been capable of. Actually, you talking about logical arguments is a lot like you talking about FPS; You know nothing about either, but babble on about them anyway.

Halo 3

See I can't argue here because you don't try and understand what I say in response to your arguments. You refuse to accept my points. I've probably explained to you each of these quotes from me, but you wouldn't try to comprehend either way. Your opinion is glued to your position concerning this debate. If you're not going to hear opposition, then you may as well exclude yourself from debates. It's part of being a Critical listener.

If you want, I will gladly give you brief diagrams/reasons for each of these things that I said. Some of these things you pulled are logical and others are reasoning through analysis But again, would you listen?


Actually no, I won't. it would wast my time. I'd rather post a page worth of "Dusk Responses" that exemplify what I'm saying

Note: The quotes you pulled are not logical "arguments". They are conclusions. There are no arguments in these. If you want to make fun of my "Logical arguments", then pull out some paragraphs. You can't claim anything using excerpts. Don't make it look like I show and don't tell.

dusk, you have lost my last shred of respect for you. all you do is quote out of context and say the same thing in response and try to look like the cool kid. if you can't argue well, please don't.

I couldn't possibly care less tbh. You think H2 takes skill. Your opinion on anything is, at this point, completely irrelevant.

Look at the topic of this thread. The OP was just wanting to thank all who were responsible for Halo PC turning out so wonderful in the end. From the developers to the modders. It then degraded to another piece of -blam!- argument about Halo 2 being terrible. Everything in this forum turns into that now. Are any of you ashamed that this forum has degraded into this? I'm being serious... Is anyone a bit ashamed of that?
Hmm, guess not... Maybe I'm just as insane for returning here to believe I might find something has changed...

I've noticed that people only tell me to stop posting when I'm saying things that people don't want people to know. My right to free speech should be snuffed out simply because I disagree with you?

But yeah, at this point, I'm once again arguing basketball with Margaret Thatcher. Ben has proven time and time again that he knows nothing about the subjects he's discussing, and this awinnik guy is proving to be just as stupid, and you can't fix stupid. So I'm just gonna go ahead and stop trying.

No, I actually agree with what you're saying. You're just saying it way too much.

I would say that you need to calm down, except you seem to be calm and you probably are calm. In fact, all of your posts seem to be the work of a totally rational person except for one thing: You keep on repeating yourself.

I know, I get it. You're gonna keep repeating yourself until everybody who thinks Halo 2 takes skill knows otherwise, but that's a silly goal.

And i'm arguing against a bonehead who can't think beyond his inner thoughts.

Yup...Please stop trying. We've all told you countless times before anyway.

By "silly" I think he meant more on the lines of "pointless". It's like trying to convince someone that loves cheese cake that cheese cake tastes terrible. Saying that you won't shut up about it until they are convinced cheese cake is terrible isn't rational in the least. Same with trying to convince someone that Halo 2 isn't skilled when they believe with their whole heart it does.

You have to take a moment and assess the the situation. You have to think about why it would matter to you a great deal that someone does believe its skillful. Sure, that means there are more people going to a game that's not skillful claiming it is. It's annoying to the people who do know a skillful game. It still shouldn't really matter enough for you to flood an online forum with it like many here do.

The ultimate truth is that the people who do just feed off negativity in their life. For some reason they need to talk negatively about something. One person from this forum (No names) came to me one time talking about how bad a Mary Kate & Ashley game was on the Playstation 1. Apparently they got bored of talking negatively about all the popular games and had to go out of their way to download a ROM of a female children's game. (No offense to you if you're reading this <3)

Your cheesecake analogy implies that it's a matter of taste. It's not a matter of taste; it's a matter of fact. It's taste to think Halo 2 is fun. It's a belief accompanied with complete disregard of fact, a delusion, to believe it takes skill. He can believe it does with every fiber of his being, but that only puts him in the same vein as the Flat Earth Society.

I agree that it is irrational to attempt to convince people to disbelieve in what they strongly believe.

It seems relatively clear that the few Halo 1&2 PC forum goers, that there are, no longer want to have negative debates/arguments about the two PC Halo games. It would be nice to no longer have repetitive negative arguments about Halo 1&2 PC. However if these negative arguments became more respectful and less negative then I would be willing to bet that everyone would be less annoyed and agitated.

No offense or anything, but are you sure that Halo 2 PC not having any skill is considered a fact? I mean until there is some sort of official study that declares it fact I don't think you can call it fact. If there is an official study you know of then you can post a link:)

So, you're equating someone having the belief that Halo 2 takes some form of skill even though it has larger hitboxes/slightly increased amounts of auto-aim to people believing the Earth is flat? It's an opinion to believe that it still takes some level of skill, no matter how large/small it may be, for Halo 2 to take some sort of skill. The Earth being an oblate sphere is proven scientific fact. Some game taking skill or not isn't.

By the way, how often do you see scientists even attempting to explain the facts to people who believe the Earth is flat? They normally just look at them, roll their eyes, and know that if they really think that it's not worth even attempting to get them to understand. If you feel those two scenarios are about the same then you ought to do the same instead of wasting your time arguing with them.

Whatev, you're right. I shouldn't be arguing with delusional console-kiddies that know absolutely nothing about FPS. Obvious stuff is obvious, and if someone lacks the mental capacities recognize something so obvious, it shouldn't be my problem. Hell, it's futile to make it my problem, because like I said, you can't fix stupid.

Even though that's not the point we were making at all, if it gets you to shut up about Halo 2 then it's okay with me.
