HALO 3 Official Thread

Yea its fine by me, I just want to get it done at some point (with people who arent total strangers) since it will get like Gears of War Co-op which you will struggle to find someone to go through it with.
 
I need to do the first half of the game, so I'm up for that at some point.

Might have to watch Heroes first, though ;)
 
K I am a PC gamer but recently purchased a xbox for a more casual pick up and play gaming.

Only problem is I do not understand xbox live, I have paid for the 3 month subscription but I don't really understand what I am getting for my money?

I have HALO3 for example but can never find a good game to join? e.g how do I simply browse all the servers to pick a 16 man map ect? All I can seem to achieve is 4 way death match:(
 
Its not like PC gaming where you simply browse servers, the only way to play exactly what you want is to have a Custom game and invite friends. But if its 16 man games you want they've just added Big Team Battle to the matchmaking playlists.

Halo 3 has its own matchmaking system which I think is great, but others will no doubt disagree. Gears of War is a game which lets you browse servers to an extent as in you put in which map, gametype etc you want then it will return with a list of games.

Edit: Plus with Halo 3 and Forge, people hosting their own games would be a stupid idea because the host could just simply create his own map+gametype variations and give himself all the advantages while the enemy is at a complete disadvantage.

k thanks bud :D atm I seem to just being playing guitar hero and lots of fun game demos (tennis, footy, doa4, racing games) nothing much online yet as I could not work out what I was doing wrong :p
 
Just 1 warning though dont expect Halo to play like most PC FPS, thats the mistake most make and they deem it crap just because they dont 'get it' so to speak.
 
Anyone fancy helping me and Gandy just complete level 3 on legendary?

Will be possible on our own but we'd liek to get it done ASAP to complete them all. Our usual guy never seems to be onlien anymore :(
 
would have gave you a hand as well if I had known, was too engrossed in matchmaking :p got some amazing film clips tonight though :D

I got some corkers.

The best one is me throwing a grenade through the window of the bunker on higher ground onto a grav lift someone had just laid and jumped on nailing them mid air :D
 
I will be playing it for atleast another 12 months solid, people will start to gradually drop off though over the coming months with so many games coming out.

I've got one good stick movie that you will absolutely wet yourself over :p

I just forget to save some of my games since it wont let me save them unless I leave the party and by the time I do leave at the end of the night I've forgot all about it.

Stick it on your share matey. You seen my stick I did ages ago?
 
I did :p although looking at it in very slow motion it seems as if all stickies are now magnetic as in they will attatch themselves if they come within a certain radius, not knocking the kill it was damn funny :D just I've noticed the sticks seem to not go straight through people anymore like they did in Halo 2.
