[Deadly Cyclone]

I'm not sure you understand the context of my post. I meant that it would be an amazing thing.

Ah, apologies. I was mistaken.

 

[DeadNames]

RIP, OT8. It's been fun. Don't come back.

2 months! I'm starting to get the "the new Halo" hype!

 

[Karl2177]

I don't see an issue with this at all. If team 1 is good it won't happen no matter who joins. It's 100x better than getting into a 5v5 match and having 3 guys quit right away.

So you're playing with a few of your pals. You guys are fairly average, all around a healthy 1.25 K/D. Suddenly 4 of the other team quits inexplicably. You think, "well this should be pretty easy". JIP warps Walshy, Ogre2, Snipedown, and T2 from their prime Halo playing days. You and your friends get donged into an alternate universe where your eyes have been permanently engrained with sai_dancing.gif. How do you feel now?

XBOX DROP FLAG

Halo Anniversary throws grenades if it hears anything close to the word 'Grenade'. This feature led to more than a few betrayals until I turned off the Kinect.

Kinect really brings out the bad ideas in people. So glad it has nothing to do with Halo 4.

Sgt Johnson is in Halo 4 confirmed.

I'd be fine with this. No explanation needed: Its classified.

Even if we lost it would have been pretty amazing and a good story to tell.

The idea of Kinect and Halo upsets me. I like me controller.

It was hilarious when you went to warn a coop partner about a grenade and ended up tossing a second grenade on his vicinity.

 

[The P of Poland]

Lol, sensy about books but is cool when we complain about everything else.

The P of Poland = The D in Double Standard.

This doesn't even make sense. I'm perfectly cool if some people want to bitch about other things, if it's something I don't care about I don't post. I might even learn something by watching the discussion. All I've done so far tonight is ask that people that don't care about the books extend that same courtesy to those of us that do.

I really don't get the point you are trying to make.

Voice commands should only be used for things that are too complex and/or too laborious to be accomplished through a button press.

Things like "Hadouken"

Haha - exactly.

Spoiler

Kinect would probably redirect you to an xbox.com page asking you to download DLC for MW3

343 hasnt given any details about the join and progress feature, have they? Im really hoping its more advanced than call of duty's, meaning you wont be able to join a game thats a minute from being over.

What pisses me off is I cant use my 250 dollar astro system to do voice commands.

My mic is better than the piece of crap they put in kinect.

Would be a nice feature to let you use your own inputs. Although I have to say, it would take a hell of a lot for me to ever purchase a Kinect. My Halo machine simply doesn't need it.

Why would I ever wast my money on that for gaming? The things people have done with kinect have destroyed anything microsoft has.

Bloom is a hell of a thing kid.

kittens and Monsterfracas just ditched me to go play Double Team...I could handle it if they went with something like Multi Team, or even Team Slayer...but Double Team? That hurts guys.

It certainly has it's place. Great for families, great for parties. Neither of which exist in my home.

I really hope that the next version of Kinect removes the input lag issue. Aside from the novelty, it's kind of fun to issue voice commands, especially if controls become increasingly complicated.

Also I liked the "lightning bolt" easter egg.

pff who would play halo till 4 is out when you have murder miners? Its a good buy, and seriously how bad is spending $3?

Hard to sell a game to some when it will most likely have 0 population in a few weeks. That's the story of most XBLA games... Indie games are usually worse.

I may or may not be crying now.
