"Bother", said Pooh, as he chambered another round.

It's kind of funny that Bungie is censoring the pictures when most of us have seen them already.

But gotta give Bungie kudos for trying. Blame the Swedes or whoever let "Level" onto the Net. Damn all the secrecy!

BTW Bungie/Eric Nylund, GoO Rules! I'm only 3/5 done, but it is gooooood.

*Partnernet- Microsoft’s internal Xbox Live network, which is how we played these games. Oh yes, look out for the hilarious Partnernet codename for what game we're playing.

Would you mind telling us the funny codename? PLEASE!!!!!

More than 1, less than 100.

My real question is how will the online play be set up. Is it true you wont be able to play ranked games with people of different levels?

Halo 3 Humpday

by KPaul at 11/2/2006 5:10 PM PST
The second proper Halo 3 Humpday Challenge. This time we played on the same maps featured in the next issue of EGM, so you can probably cross reference all these antics, weapons and maps with real screenshots next week.


(for everyone wondering when they will see screenies, read the last sentence)

The last map looks suspiciously like Blood Gulch/Coag. If you go towards the shadows at the blue base and look out, it almost looks identical, and there looks to be a waterfall where a bunch of rocks were in coag..... coolio

"tell my girlfriend that i love her"

"She's my girlfriend now, -blam!-!"

Also, I demand more in depth coverage about the aforementioned "Man Cannon© technology".

Such information will send fudge and sprinkle coated jackalopes to get repeated Kilimanjaros by using the Magnum's melee attack.

Ah, look at the lonely people...

I think I know which maps they played on, corresponding to information I've gleaned from the LEVEL7 article and the file names of the blurred preview images.

I'm beginning to wonder if getting people to use the word "Man-Cannon" seriously has to do with their plan of world domination...hmm.....

And I wonder if they feel like I do...that something else has just shown up, with its own locked and loaded magazine of manifest destiny, set to bring forth a new kind of reckoning...

elevated ... a synonym for high.....
terrain ...means the same as ground...
elevated-terrain.....high-ground

i wonder if theres any corralation...


also what the blam is a man cannon?!
pleeeeease dont tell me its some kind of human cannon machine like from a circus where u launch mc into people...that would just be rediculous.

Grenade from 50 yards. Does this mean that we will be able to throw the same distance as in H1?
