"Halo - what a game, what an ending..."

*SPOILER ALERT*

if you haven't completed halo, shut down your PC NOW!!!

anyway, now that's over...wow!

now that's the kind of ending that only comes once in a century. i mean, it's frantic, fun and dangerous, so nothing is wrong with it - and the end cutscene cleverly leaves the game open to tons of sequels. Xbox owners know that Halo 2 is coming soon, and hopefully to the PC thereafter.

so, what did you all think?

well, i wouldn't have liked to have been on that piece of halo that was spinning really fast after the wildcat explosion, eh?

Which reminds me, I ran over 4 players while ramming into the opponent's base entrance yesterday :) T'was funny watching them die their different ways.

Yeah, but it's more a test of skill then when you concentrate on ground assault. Many a game has been ruined when a side on CTF has the two banshees; and make nomistake while I enjoy shooting banshees (especially downing them with a pistol), I'd rather concentrate on warthog fights, snipers and running-round-in-circles-while-throwing-grenades battles.

Urg, that ending was too long.

Drive, crash. Damn I'm being attacked by annoying grunts and the dullest enemy ever, the Flood. Woo, I'm free, o look, that ship has died (oh NO!) and now we have escaped and........

WE'RE THE ONLY ONES LEFT!

Didn't see that coming.

Well, personally, those who say "no banshees" are those that can't handle them if they are attacked. It's just the server's way of eliminating their weakness, which i think is wrong, seeing as it's unfair on others and also a negative effect on the way games were meant to be played.

I've just got to that part...

But who cares when you have multiplayer!!!! And sods who don't understand that NO BANSHEES in the title mean you CAN'T USE BANSHEES.

That level got to me too. started off well enough, but eventually equated to you running around identical levels fighting off hundreds of mutant freaks while some ponce robot tries to explain the plot. I thought it would never end.

True, I suppose. Can't you just wear an eyepatch or something?

When you can't see the other people on the same screen, yes! Knowing where the other person/people is/are ruins it for me personally.

I only know two other people who have an Xbox, who feel the same. And unfortunately none of us have either the money or the room to buy and install second TVs just for gaming!
