That would be amazing! It can be quite difficult to get in a Halo 3 match now.
Yes you should

This aint in BTB is it?
I say this now, but I just really want a good back and forth discussion about why Squad Slayer had to go and stay gone. I want to understand the challenges and effort as you put it.
Prepping for E3.
By the way, Frankie, are you still looking for people in the LA area?

I don't think I speak for myself when I say BOOM! Ball is better than Griffball.
You know, 343, it's not not too late to make a playlist for it...

So the new Gears game is called Gears of War:Judgment and being developed by People Can Fly. Bulletstorm was enjoyable so this could be good. Its gonna focus on Cole and Baird, I think the covers pretty much gave that away though.
I would have much rather liked to hear about the game for the first time at the MS press conference though.

It seems to show up more when there's a big dip in the 24 hour stats for the game, as Halo 3 doesn't actually seem to update player count that much.
I've gotten it in Action Sack, which on some nights reads "4 players" but doesn't always spit the error.
Then again, Halo 3 also still prompts you to preorder Reach when you start it up and your cache has been cleared.
You didn't even sign up for the BOOM!Ball tournament I tried to get started. False patriot.

I hope there's a sizeable amount of ways to get out of maps in 4's campaign. Reach had a noticeable dearth of such opportunities.
I want to get out of those maps and explore those beautiful Forerunner landscapes, Halo 3 style.

Not enough people know about the amazingness that is BOOM! Ball. A playlist would convert many players.

If there's one thing Reach needs more of it, it's playlists

Glad you did, I agree with your question.
I've always loved playing competitive objective with my buddies, im sad that the population is so low just because it's "easier" to play slayer with randoms/less communication is needed to achieve success.
Really glad you guys at 343i are putting a ton of effort into objective as David I think mentioned in the most recent podcast. It's always been my favorite type of thing to play because slayer after slayer after slayer inevitably gets boring as hell.

But it's a boom ball playlist. Think, man! Think of the awesome!

No
Shame
Not sure if I should applaud or not.
It can probably happen in just about any ranked playlist outside of Team Slayer at this point.
Because I'm black I steal stuff. Wow, I expect that sort of racism from Elzar. Shame on you young man.
Griffball doesn't work for me, I have piss-poor internet and it just seems that no matter what I do in Grifball I always end up with about -25kd. I think the hammer combat is is suicide with my poor latency.
I remember getting a few killionaires in Halo 3 Griffball when I used to have fibre optic bb, but then I moved out to the countryside. Now I have nice clear air and beatiful views, but the goddamn crappy internet is the bane of my life.

Damn son, your post count is gonna pass mine out at this stage. I've had MGS on the menu screen for ages
I should play that soon.Or everyone could get back online *hint hint* (I don't care how late it is)

Griffball in Reach doesn't work the same way as in 3. Same connection. In Halo 3, i could own in Griffball. In Reach, whenever i try to attack, i either don't hit or do minimal damage and my enemies win 99% of simultaneous attacks.

A guy on the other team partied with 3 other people told me this was probably going to be a fair game after I remarked about having a guest on my team. I could not backpack
Why cant some other playlist just be incorporated into the arena ranking system besides just one slayer list? Why is it such a big deal to do?

Sounds like a bad trade to me.
Solution, move to the USA.

They probably want somewhere to have zero bloom available still though.

Griffball was a weird beast for me. There was always one dude owning everyone who was probably just the host. I'd literally have to train myself to swing way earlier than I normally would so that by the time the game registered, my swing might have been good.
Playing Destruction Derby a lot, it has made me hope for improved hog physics.
check pms
Doubt that would solve this...
Umm. Besides, how it would solve this? By having a weak connection? My connection is not that great so it's not like that actually matters.
Besides, USA is not the kind of country i'd like to live in. Now Canada could be ok, it's like a big Finland; in cold, has a lot of forests, and is kinda of backwater, a quiet place (anything interesting happening is really rare).

Funny, I'm doing that right now. Currently downloading my copy of CE back onto my xbox and found my copy of H2. Gonna be a fun weekend.
Agreed. I would definitely drive up to Minneapolis. The Microsoft store launch for Anniversary was fun, I was in second place in their tourney. DAMN YOU HANG EM HIGH SPAWNS!
Monday will be interesting for you. You will have decisions to make.

Getting a refresh on the original trilogy campaigns might pay some dividends methinks.

Playthrough of Halo:CE begins...now.
Edit: I probably should've played Reach first, but it's fresher in my mind, I feel like I wouldn't want to go through it as much.

You just made my hype go from 6 to midnight.
"Which pre-order skin do I like the most?"
If weird bug from last night is happening (PMs NOT going through) Xand should find a way to get me his email address.
