Haha the quality actually adds to the experience and makes it a bit funnier; not to mention it dates it.

Halo |OT10| The Calm Before The Storm
- Thread starter GhaleonEB
- Start date
Yep.
Anti Arbitrr forces led by Jul Mdama searching for the Didact to destroy humanity.
So less religious than pragmatic (from a leadership standpoint.)
Still unknown
whether the Servants of Truth join the storm faction or not. They've got three years plus from Thursday War to Halo 4.

I feel kind of sorry for Danger Close (not EA), but the quality presented in that 'beta' is down right shoddy.
It has done more harm then good.

That was amazing.
That was quite possibly the greatest thing I've ever seen.
lmao that was great
So yesterday I was at the event Overdoziz was at for Halo 4, and as he said, you didn't get to play if you weren't VIP, which was stupid because the organizers of the event never said such a thing on their website.
It's too bad that I didn't see the VIP line which was actually on the other side of the setup until we were leaving, because there were only a handful of people in that line, and I would have just gone in line and said that the website didn't say anything about needing to be VIP. I would have been pissed if I wasn't already sold on the game and didn't need any convincing. Got the goods that they gave out too.
The one game I watched was played by a good player at the very least, and hearing the sound from the game was incredible, to hear the changes from the sound ranges from the past Halos was really something else. I played Black Ops 2, and while the sound there was the best the series had as well, Halo 4 trumped that handily, especially the BR (sounding like a real burst rifle), the rocket launcher's launch and impact, and the Ghost. Incredible.
Really cannot wait now.

You can't just leave something awesome like that here. It needs a bit of a summary to describe it.

I assume that you guys filmed that last long section on Sunday, which would explain my absence."Some random bald guy that walked in off the street."
The sunglasses. Sai's DDR. I can't wait for next year!
There was a noticeable lack of Steelyuhas though.
ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
lol that's amazing
Random shit: It appears the mouse wheel on the my mouse broke. How is that even possible?

(I show up in a corner of the screen for a few seconds during the panel footage. Other than that, though, Duncan pretty much turned off his camera whenever I came near. Sadface.)

Now I remember where (spoiler just in case)
Just a cool little connection in The Thursday War.
the name Pious Inquisitor comes from. Heretic!

Don't let the short line deceive you, only once every 12 minutes would 4 people from the VIP line get into the booth. Never going to that shitty event again.

Yeah, that's my fault. I should have recorded video at the HaloGAF breakfast, but I was too busy enjoying the conversation (and eating) to stick a camera in everyone's faces.
There are plenty of photos with you, Steely, and Cyclone. I just threw together the video I had - I still want to write up a few anecdotes from PAX and I'll include a slideshow in that.
I get a little better at documenting these things with each successive convention. Fingers crossed for NYCC.

That particular shot was unusually noisy and shaky - I had a better shot of the panel crowd and went with that one. Had I realized it was your only spot in the video I would have kept it in. Sorry!
Oh, crap, you answered that way too seriously - I apologize. I didn't mean to make it sound like I was blaming you for REAL...
(I'm pretty sure my vampire blood gets in the way of full-on footage anyway.)

I'm kidding.
You did a great job of being the only one who thought to video record, and got some good footage.

Seems so. Tashi should be happy.
Though, I've always been under the assumption that all the Halo maps are canon.

I see a new wave of juniors in the future too. The horrors of new juniors and the gaming side are too much to think about.

Heh, no worries. I just frustrate myself when I get home from PAX and go through my recordings. "Wow, this is boring and shaky. Really wish I had been recording when [awesome thing] happened."
My two video clips of you are:
- Us standing around before the Halo 4 panel, right when things got awkward with the line situation.
- A distance shot of you talking to Jessica - right as two Spartans walk in front of my camera and give my autofocus a fit.
I've come to the conclusion that pictures of a convention/event tend to come out better than video. Unfortunately, at PAX I was only taking pictures with my crappy cellphone camera. There are still certain situations where video is better, but I'll have both my new DSLR and my camcorder at NYCC so I'll be prepared for anything.

How does the activation process work? Is it just time-based from when you register an account or is there an approval period when new accounts are allowed?
There's an approval period which can be...anytime admins want, haha.
edit: damn the top 5 on Halo4Remix just jumped way up in terms of votes. :< Need moar.
Now that's cool. I didn't pick up on that at all
Prepared for everything except for the fun we're going to have! Lolz

this was pretty good.
I think in the end fan favorite only plays a small part in the actual judging, but it's a decent % towards your chances of winning.
Vote for my remix here: Awakening (Technicolors Remix)
Vote for Jellycrackers' remix here (Just hit "Favorite"): [url=http://soundcloud.com/steven-mcdonald/beyond-galaxy]Beyond Galaxy (To Galaxy Remix)
I hope a couple more HaloGAFfers put up some remixes, otherwise I'd feel weird making the thread when it's just Jellycrackers' remix and my own :lol I'll think about this. I would like more votes, I just don't wanna be TOO obvious about how much I'm showing this song off
edit: steely does have nice hair confirmed

What you are seeing in this picture (besides Steely) is first person Cyclone.
EDIT:
Sai, you remixers have some new heavy competition:
Dude makes some awesome remixes. He's a testing lead at MS and an electronic music dude.

Ooh, awesome. These are the type of spoilers that I don't mind. I'm half way through Glasslands, and this just makes me more excited. It also makes some pretty major spoilers that I accidentally read make more sense now...
I can't think to the spring. What games will be showing then?

totes buying right now
I would be pleased if Bayonetta 2 is, certainly.
Mainly want to take a father-son trip w/ my (then) 9 year old, and videogames is the perfect setting.
I know, I saw, and I facepalmed. There goes first place. Dude is TOO legit.
This was great.Video: HaloGAF at PAX Prime 2012
No gameplay here, just five minutes of HaloGaffers goofing around during PAX. Enjoy!
The puppets video too.
I thought that people who are somehow connected with MS are automatically disqualified, or is it just at Waypoint competitions?
