so im reading the news on the bungie website snd low and behold not only am i getting fun stuff about marketing and all that crap but i also read about the beta of halo 3.... however while it was exciting to get some stuff on the beta the most pleasing thing is that there are going to be new maps for halo 2 which is freaking sweet seeing as we have played the maps on halo 2 to death.

just felt like spreading my joy so hope you guys are excited too

Announced like 2 months ago....I would be excited...but I'll be playing the Halo 3 beta. Oh...and your Gears of War quotes are wrong.

Don't get the wrong impression. the beta is invite only, you can get an invite if you buy the first shipment of crackdown, but it's definetly online only.

i baird and marcus said that but the main part thats wrong is "well we're not here to sell cookies, IF THATS WHAT YOU MEAN"..that part in caps shouldnt be there i dont think..but its not important lol

but i didn't really like halo 2 i stopped playing it like..3 or 4 months after it came out.  and i had to force myself to like it for that long because thats the only game people played.  halo 1 multiplayer was much better where your nades were real grenades, not lil firecrackers like in halo 2. i also dont like the pellet gun smgs.  halo 3 is lookin better though and i'm buying crackdown today for that beta.

yeah, they announced the new maps back when they debuted the h3 commercial, something i think got overlooked. ill finally go back to halo 2 when they release the maps, but i might not get that much in since i got into the h3 beta.

That misquote has been bugging me too. Marcus actually says, "Well we're not here to sell cookies, so they know something's up."

i agree i liked halo1 weapons better, especially the nades, im a nade'n nut lol. love nades. but halo2 was online and that was a big plus for it, plus its a continuation of a story that i loved so i liked halo2 but halo1 was better in my opinion. graphics and sound better on 2 without a doubt,

No its Baird _ "Do you think they know why we are here?" Marcus - "Well we're not here to sell cookies, so they know something is up"

the halo 2 nades aren't all that bad, the frag grenades ate the brunt of nerfing, but it made them more so you had to use them in conjunction with a gun. i.e. a well placed frag will eliminate all shield, so a few headshots get the kill. Plasma's could kill you in range, even if you're not stuck. One of my tactics when being chased by 1 or more people was to turn a corner and lay a plasma on the ground just on the other side of the corner, they keep chasing me, thinking they outnumber me so they have to get the kill, run around the corner and then step on my plasma mine as it explodes. It was a beautiful thing. The frag's could really stand for some more power though, Bungie should let Tim Taylor get his hands on them.
