CoD Black Ops 2 - 11.13.12
Team 343i! vs Team Treyarch
Pretty awesome that they're both coming out near each other. Means that the CoD people can play that, and won't infect Halo 4 for a bit.

A new month is added in 2012, which is why the Mayans got all fucked up in December 2012.
It's so simple to save the world sometimes.
I realized that after I saw this Jeff Hardy gif
I'm uncomfortable!
OH GOD
I'm down

Was last game, sorry broski.
Better that than yet another dee slurper already putting work towards that early Spartan Ops Season 2 xbl code.

Very cool.
(Heh, why did GI show the Halo Legends version of Halsey instead of the Reach one?)
Creepy.
Makes me think of MC in the Halo 3 Believe ad.

Reach does not exist in GameInformers Halo universe. Only logical explanation.
We almost got a full lobby worth of players getting the game now. Join the Fun!
Just reposing this so It has the top of this page and is seen by more people, not everyone can keep up with GAF:
I want to play Halo 2 With GAF.
What do you all think about this?
Would you be up for this?
Links:
Halo 2 Amazon
Wireless Controller Adapter
What we play depends on how many people participate and what we want to play.
Does next weekend work for everyone or should I push it forward to allow for shipping time?
Like it says, if you want to participate, PM ME.
If your considering it, PM me so I can get an estimate of how many of you there will be.
Any suggestions? Questions, about this or Halo 2 Vista?

The beauty of this online tournaments for MLG. There is this guy that goes around knocking off everyone online named PJ or something. Now when pros scrim he's able to knock them off from looking at their friendslist or someone that has them. Some add him to avoid getting knocked off but he still likes to stretch his little muscle around. Also when they stream he seems to be able to knock them off of twitch. This tournament is going to get real ugly, people knocked off and no real way to watch it live. He just knocked Formal off..7

I'd prefer
LB jump
RB AA
X Sprint
B beatdown
A pickup weapon/reload
D pad - select grenades
You should shoop the Shawn Michaels blowjob.gif with XBL codes shooting out of the mimed phallus, for use when dee slurping occurs.

I should have my copy of Halo 2 on Monday, Computron.

Sales for both will be strong. At launch Halo 4 will outperform Reach while Blops 2 will continue the downward trend for that series. Blops 2 will outsell Halo 4 in the short term for certain but there's a chance that over the long haul (12-18 months) Halo 4 could win. That's all my wild, uninformed speculation for the day.
I didn't understand any of the gameplay but the features of that mode are awesome. That would be an incredible mode to have in Halo.
Halo Legends Halsey gets them the anime demographic. Reach Halsey gets them Elzar only.

I wonder what the odds of Jeff Steitzer playing a character, possibly a Drill Sgt. on UNSC Infinity are.

"She is going to descend into rampancy." There you go. Can't wait to see what happens.
Cool! Hit me up if you wanna practice!
We got 13 players including me across GAF alone, then another 5 or so from modacity:

I thought of him whilst I thanked some Waypoint people for their helpful posts.
The part about the different AI's really intrigues me.

I'd join.
I prefer current bumper jumper layout with some modifications:
X - Sprint
A - Armor Ability
Up on D-Pad - Swap Grenades
Busy being Irish.
(Come to think of it, how do you refer to people from Northern Ireland?)

Man, I hope they get Cortana right. Would be great if they could tie her story into the gameplay a bit more. Some level of user interaction with her.
This image, from the Terminals, would have been a better choice:
Because Frankie was reasoning out her appearance, particularly her nakedness and showing Old Lady Halsey wasn't exactly conducive to the explanation of her sexuality being somewhat rooted in Halsey (almost a rebellion thing in my mind, or Cortana trying to be what Halsey felt she couldn't or didn't want to be (both great at her job and a strong sexual figure).
This image, from the Terminals, would have been a better choice:
Northern Irish, British or Irish all work, depending on the persons personal preference. Dani is fine with all three afaik.
Reasonable discourse = dee slurper
Speculation filled hyperbolic complaining = best new poster

Eye of the beholder.
But I think his point was more the few people saying "You haven't played it, you can't judge it or talk negatively about it!" or "Well I know 343I will get it right, I have complete faith in them, no matter what bad things we hear!".

I'd take that were it not for the jetpack. As a bumper jumper user in Reach I'm basically precluded from using the jetpack, which is sort of ok because I prefer sprint. In Halo 4, sprint is default so I'm definitely going to want to use the jetpack additionally. This means mapping the AA to RB so I can fly and shoot simultaneously.
RIP Halo
I have that Yoda backpack for when I ride my motorcycle. My bike ran out of gas last summer on a back road in rural NH, and I was sitting there alone in the woods with my Yoda backpack on like the world's biggest weirdo. Haters gonna hate.

Is Hybrid that 5th Cell shooter? If so, I'll take the code!

Hey guys, random question. Does the Halo fiction ever explain how the Gravemind teleports MC and Arbie in Halo 2? Can it teleport anything?
Hmm, that's a good point. Solution: Jetpack is voice activated. "Kinect: BLAST OFF."
I just assumed he knew how to use Halo's teleportation grid like Cortana figured out in 1.

Hybrid looks pretty awesome. If somebody happens to have a spare beta code left, I'd sure appreciate it
