After reading *Highly Excitable*'s "My first great Xbox Live experience" thread, i decided to make this one.
You can put any great Xbox Live moments here for any game.
I have one: Dolores, you might remember this.
Halo 2 - Burial grounds - Team skirmish - Capture the flag.
The red team had just caught our flag and none of us realised at first. But when i did, i rushed over to their to their touchdown spot, armed with naught but a rocket launcher and waited for them. The rest of my team were shooting the flag guy from afar while he came out of the caves. So he started jumping to stay away from the bullets, he was still miles away from me at this point.
I saw him jumping and and fired a rocket. Amazingly it hit him at the peak of his jump, and from so far away!
Another time, I went into a big team battle with a load of my mates that I'd met on L!VE, and who was the other team, non other than half of the SR forums against us.
Get Banshee and then fly over the enemy base, really high up over the hole in the top of the base. Bail from the banshee and free fall in the middle of their base - steal flag, run up to the top of the base and jump off into the shadows and then run back to our base.
I did this twice and on the third time they had totally barricaded the base in with a banshee blocking the stairway and boxes in all the doorways. They made the mistake of doing it from the outside so that they could not get back in and kill me so I had to call in help from the rest of my team who blew the crap into the base with everything they had (including ram raiding the back entrance with a warthog). After I escaped from the base I got a lift from a guy in the Warthog and we won.

Must have been the best game I ever had.
What does everyone on our team except me do? They attack.
I'm left on the right of the base and a warthog pulls underneaf.
They take the flag and the rest of the teams shouting "WHO'S ON DEFENCEE!"
Luckily they decided to come on out in my direcion, so BAMN! headshot to the passenger with our flag. The gunner gets of and trys to take it, BAMN! another headshot and then the poor old driver suffers the same fate.
The team still shouting "WHO'S ON DEFENCE!" so I say "I'm the f*****g defence now get back to the f*****g base"

The funniest bit was the start - that guy fired a rocket at us and killed all of us - simply because we were just standing there going 'ALRIGHT MATE?! I'M AUSTRAAALIAN!'

Meh. I don't like it.
The single player was dire, and multiplayer was ok, but didn't hold my interest for very long.

Oh, Emitime... how wrong you are.
Just to have a laugh and get the other team confused, we all rushed to the hill in the middle and just stood there! The other team didn't know what was going on and just kept killing us but we rushed back to the hill. We didn't shoot or anything it was hilarious!
