The Marty Army

Ah, look at the lonely people...

So, does that mean that if you're playing Halo 3 and we've got you guys on our friends lists, it'll say, "Online in Halo 3"?

Ohhhhhhhhh man
This gets me wet


LOL

same here i really wanted to just start killing real people when i read the first paragraph, i was like please, you can at least tell us WTH the names of the maps are

the map he was describing with the 2 grav lifts reminded me of collosus so maybe it will be a bigger/revamped version of that map ???
and when i saw the part about the jetpack, i immediately stopped reading and peed myself, but only to find out that wasn't really in the game


*cries in the corner*

You had better watch your back when you leave work KP, or you might find Ninja 0n Fire hunting you down.

(10:19:49 PM) Scruss: oh and pezza, i saw what you did to that cat
(10:20:17 PM) Pezza: You were the one with the video camera breathing heavily. Of course you saw.

Any Halo 3 news is good Halo 3 news.

Help a brother out. Click on the referral link, sign up for a fun game, log in once for the next couple of days, then you never have to think about it again!

And yes. I understand how pathetic that is, but nobody reads these things anyway... right?

Following N0F will be a chorus of "meet me in the parking lot it's goin' down!"

(parody of "It's going down")

Ninja and I tried out a smaller, asymmetrical map that’s a lot of fun. Ninja’s been really busy lately so he hasn’t been in as many multiplayer tests as I have and it showed. You guys might remember Frankie talking about how Bungie brought in 45 year old mothers who’ve never touched video games all their life to conduct some research for Halo 2. After this game, Harold decided we could save some money this time around and just use Ninja.

I had my pick of whichever weapon I wanted, so I ran around with a great long-range weapon (you’ll never guess what we call it!) and a devastating medium-range weapon. Ninja ran around like a remote-controlled car operated by a blind, retarded monkey: running into walls, staring at the ground and jumping for no apparent reason.

Ultimately, I came to terms with killing the short-bus-riding monkey and finished the game in decisive fashion.

25 to 7. KP wins.

Interesting version you have there, KP... definitely more interesting than what happened in reality. Perhaps if you didn't suck so bad, you wouldn't have to fabricate such lies.

So here I am at my desk testing out something that I would get fired for talking about and out of nowhere KP says "Hey, let's do some H3 1v1" - sorry, too busy. So he asks me later, I say okay now or never.

We go to the lab, load up the game, I delay the countdown a few times, KP gets angry. We start playing... I kill KP. Then I kill KP again. Finally, KP dies a third time. Now from across the map KP comes flying at me using jetpack and deathless player cheats, but he is moving so fast he can't even land a shot on me and does nothing but flies into walls.

Then some developers came in for a meeting and kicked us out.

Game over.

3 to 0. Ninja wins.

Oh yeah, see you in the parking lot tonight KP.



lmfao

They probably were using non-Live profiles on the 360, just to make sure this doesn't happen. They rpobably will continue to do this until the game is realeased. That, or "dummy" Live accounts that no one would EVER find.

Unless, there is another reason I don't know about.

  • 09.21.2006 6:16 PM PDT

Rawr!

Ninja > All. lmao. KP just got burned.

  • 09.21.2006 6:17 PM PDT

Wish I could change my Forum ID :|

I'd say that they should make a question mark map a limited time map download on the XBL marketplace.

I think its dumb that they cant give you any hints other then time.....they should at least give you a map or something.......and i want to know about this menu thing were all the weapons drop the person said that it was a hack or something i thought there was no cheating in h3



they were using it as a debug type thing........they are the creators, and they can do whatever they want.

Halo 3 battle, it sounds awesome. Keep up the good work Bungie!

PS - I think Joe Staten (who is pretty much awesome) and Frankie (...meh...jk) were playing on a new 'Midship', hearing phrases like "opposing grav lifts (or was it teleporters?)" and "Mid-air jumps," just perks my curious little mind.
