That really isn't much at all.

Oft hope is born when all is forlorn.
lol compare to mine it is, where do you even check this? I can't find anything on Bungie.net and Halowaypoint you have to track down individual games or overall total number of games. But I have never seen that type of format that he posted.

Sign into Bungie.net. Move the mouse over your avatar beside your name and click "Profile".

Please tell me this is wrong, because I cant see anything like that in my profile, it says no game history lol wtf?
Go to halo.bungie.net, it's the archive site of Bungie.net pre-Destiny. Has service records, file shares, everything even forums are still there, you just can't interact with it. :/
I just search my GT and it pulls up my profile.
Just checked and I've got almost 8,000 games of Halo 3 played, probably past that now since it was last updated over two years ago.

I'm not sure on your end, but it is working for me. Are you using the same gamer tag before things switched over to 343i? My Halo 2 games from my old gamer tag don't show up.
Nice. I wondered where the original Halo stats went.
Mine looked exactly like that the last time I saw it, and so does the one from the only other person I know in real life that has one. I assumed that's how everyone's looked by now.

Working on it, but for now here are some more I have:
Halo 2 PC Screenshots 7680x4320 rendering + 8x SGSSAA > 3840x2160 (What I took them at) > 1080p

I'll be doing that. I probably won't touch another game for a couple of months.

Awesome stuff! I seriously hope you can do some more for each level in the game, these are going to be really helpful for some posts for the lore thread that I'm working on (especially Covenant stuff from the cutscenes like Sacred Icon, and in-game stuff from Delta Halo/Regret and High Charity's environments on the levels Gravemind and High Charity)
It's amazing how much of a difference there is between the Xbox and PC versions when cranked up to proper levels. Here's hoping the image quality of the classic version in MCC is closer to that standard.
Well, the MCC is unlikely to use anything crazy like 4320p8xSGSSAA (at 1080p, that's ultimately 128xSSAA, which is sort of absurd), but 1080p alone will look quite clean compared with the original 480p, not to mention the higher framerate.
I wonder if they're going to brush up Classic Mode in CE to make it a fairly perfect higher-fidelity reproduction of the original game. Classic Mode in CEA had all the visual issues that HPC does and then some; even at 1080p60, if this hasn't been fixed up, my oXbox might continue to see employment as my main Halo 1 campaign machine.

If you need anything specific, just ask. (Credit appreciated also if you use them)
I don't know if the classic mode will be able to pull that off. Each screenshot (frame) was about 200 MB and the Xbone only has about 32 MB for games. =)

I believe they showed a cutscene with him pushing the bomb.

Good shit, man. You've got me beat.
Any old-school Halo 2 bros want to add me on XBL: The Lamonster
Anyone else still hoping that this is still a thing? http://youtu.be/dCVkW80HCxs

Most of my Halo 2 time was local and LAN, I didn't have Xbox live until after I had Halo 3.

Man, Halo 2 still has the best Elite design.
Also I really hope Saber/343 don't mess up the old mossy stone Forerunner stuff by making it metal or hyper angular like all the 4 Forerunner stuff.

Has it been mentioned if your Halo 3 and Halo 4 stats carry over to MCC or do you start from scratch?

I wouldn't dream of using your pics without giving credit where it's due
Nothing specific, but any environmental shots inside High Charity or of Prophets of any kind would be greatly appreciated.

Bleh.
Oh well, I'm still in it for the SP campaigns. Besides, everyone will be equal footing when it comes out so that'll be interesting.

The one thing that worries me is if the ranking system takes a couple of days to normalize, the initial buying period is going to be dominated by returning pros. It could hurt the game's population in the long run.
Still, probably nothing to worry about.

There will be equal footing for a week, and eventually the numbers will spread to each polar end. Reach, 3, and to an extent 4 were the same way. Fair-weather players will abandon ship, the hardcore players will be up on Olympus, and the rest of us will just keep on trucking.

That can't possibly be real. My brain doesn't believe what I'm seeing. You have spent more than a literal, solid year playing Halo 3.

And here I thought my 8.5k was a lot.
Got me beat. 7,149 games played. 89 games shy of 4,000 on Halo 3.
Holy crap.

Nope, I feel the same way. Halo 2 went all pastel on everyone. It gives the game an off-look. Maybe not cartoonish, but definitely different. Halo 2 is when the flood became a lame enemy and hunters went from fun to take down to a chore. And the FoV made me feel more motion sick when playing through the campaign. Halo 2's campaign is only above Reach's campaign in my own not so popular halo campaign rankings: CE>4>3>2>Reach

Okay, I'll admit, most of the Halo 3 stats are from forge. There was a technique to save and then immediately quit in order to get an object to float or intersect. Each time counted as a custom game played.
My custom game total is:
15344
While my Social/Ranked total:
5300
Still though, that's a lot of video game.

But that had AA... which hopefully the MCC has but the Halo 2 screens didn't (granted that also has anniversary mode and is an unfinished build)

Okay, that makes a lot more sense, lol. You've still got more games than me, just not so many as to beggar belief.
Just checked on Waypoint for total playtime on Halo 3....
23 Days 14 Hours
And that's not including Campaign or Custom Games time, both of which I also spent an obscene amount of time in.
D:
Fuckin' love that game. A majority of my best gaming memories and friends were made in the Halo 3 days.

Was that ever officially discussed? I had the impression it was higher. Never actually bothered to check, myself.

Same here...my old Halo crew is all getting XBOnes when this comes out. Can't wait to play with all of them again.
