Spartan Ops

I've been thinking about how 343 is going to handle SpOps, since it's serialized. 343 can't really go the same route that was with Reach's co-op voting screen, especially if people can't play an episode on the day it's released or are banking a week's worth to play at once (which is how I'll likely do it). I'd think 343 would have to go with a 'select a mission' setting that, like Gears 3, will just continue on to the next episode without bringing everyone in the party back to the SpOps menu.

Of course, that would suggest that SpOps and maybe even campaign has drop-in/drop-out, which might not be feasible. Looking forward to answers on that front.

The part at 9:00 was insane. I can't believe he beat it that fast.

I've been playing around in Halo 3 lately. The game is 5 years old, but I'm still finding new things to do in it. Last night, I played The ArK and had the idea of using the Scorpion to take the Scarab down. And yeah, it worked.

So much fun.

You mean people actually did it the other way on this level? I've played that level so many times but I've always used the Scorpion.

Season two of the creep-shots thread is on, with one ban already! Tune in!

Heh - good to see Trey got unbanned.

Idk about you guys but I see a big mutant ninja turtle face on chief's armor from the chest down to the waist. Now that I can't unsee..

It was on a figure, not that image, but Ghaleon saw the same thing.

It was all about ramping the hog onto the scarab for me. If that didn't work, just dance around its legs while the gunner takes it down.

Ha! Really? Normally, I try to do this:

Or use my sniper to snipe the engine panel.

 

[Blue Ninja]

Okay, "Nemesis" isn't as good as the sample let on, but "To Galaxy" is ten times better. Awesomesauce.

That's actually pretty dope. I'll have to try that out when I replay it before Halo 4.

I like both, but "To Galaxy" is really awesome. Always connecting the trailer's with it.

Weird part is, that it says uploaded 1 month ago.

Was watching slightly impressed for most of the run. He had good routes and inventive glitching/jumps/etc. Then I hit the 9:00 mark. Bricks were shat.

Watched the Cortana run too. Last time I did it on Legendary I kept getting lost and it took me something like 90 minutes.

Some of those jumps were insane, too...

Holy shit wat.

My favorite is landing the Chopper on there, using a gravity lift snagged from the central building. Bonus points for splatters on landing.

Watching that reminds me how much I miss that jump height. Not being able to jump on top of the crates in Reach was ... doesn't feel like Halo.

I know I'm supposed to be impressed by the run, but holy crap, Halo in Japanese is pretty funny. Their Grunts are simply the best, and there's something magical about hearing all the screams they didn't bother to redub. Too bad he had to skip the TO WAR cutscene, I bet this dub add some much needed gravitas to that scene.
Is Japanese Halo 3 region free? I kind of want to play this.

It is region-free.

You could only do that in two Halo games anyways.

It's majestic, and seizure inducing.

 

[willow ve]

But those are the games I spent the most time playing. I played a lot of CE on LAN, but Halo 2 and 3 were the games that I spent the vast majority of my Xbox Live time playing. The floaty jump moon boots of Halo 3 is what "feels like Halo" to me.

It's majestic, and seizure inducing.

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's Super Chiefu.

Hmm. I don't remember using a grav lift, but YES.

It is region-free.

Oh shhhhh--

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

The music near the end of that level still reminds me of the airwolf theme song for some reason.

That was a pretty sweet run, that drone glitch was especially funny.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBd6ighzqYA

Truely one of the greatest theme songs ever and I loved the shit out of this show growing up.

The 80/early 90s were great for action packed TV. This, Macgyver, A-team, etc.
