I'd never co-op any game the first time through. I like to have the experience all to myself!

It'd be nice to co-op after my first run through the campaign though.

Huh? Doesn't sound like 4 -player coop.

Draft · (07-31-2007, 07:04 PM)

I take back every bad thing I said about Halo 3.

Relix · (07-31-2007, 07:04 PM)

God what am I gonna do with so many good games coming out.... and where will i get the money!!

PD: I just know Halo 3, insta purchase.

Imperial Hot · (07-31-2007, 07:04 PM)

STINKLES PLEASE CONFIRM!

jimbo · (07-31-2007, 07:04 PM)

Ok, now that I got my motor functions back I have one thing to say: GAME OF THE YEAR.

Core407 · (07-31-2007, 07:04 PM)

I'm already calling lag.

Shogmaster · (07-31-2007, 07:04 PM)

Stinkles from Amsterdam: "NOOOOOO~ THAT'S NOT WHAT I SAID YOU BASTARDS!!!"

Yeah, it only took them a couple of weeks to implement. WTF!? I highly doubt this is the case.

Something like this would have to be on the drawing board a long time ago.

Deathcraze · (07-31-2007, 07:05 PM)

I'm half expecting either Luke or Stinkles to pop in and say someone got their wires crossed yet again

Awesome if true.

Sarcasm. :/

Doodlebug · (07-31-2007, 07:05 PM)

Hooray for whom it mattered!

Heh, yeah.

As Bungie always says: Don't believe it until you hear it from us. (or something)

buckfutter · (07-31-2007, 07:05 PM)

I thought the idea was that co-op would bring in the Arbiter? How would 4P work?

meltpotato · (07-31-2007, 07:05 PM)

wait... these Haze comments are sarcasm, right?

Orlics · (07-31-2007, 07:05 PM)

AI and physics downgrade confirmed ahuahuahuahuahua

still cumming

Probably getting a little ahead of ourselves, but I can't wait. 2 player online Coop is a little too personal to play with random jobbers online. With 4 players hopefully I don't have to talk to anyone.
