ahahahaha!
holy shit, didn't even see the gamer score. How do you get a gamer score like that? Play every piece of crap they put out for max achievement?
Hey Scarab could you by chance post my gt in the gamertag thread since I don't have an account there yet? :P
were you not one of the 2500 juniors spawning in real time?
what is your gt?
shit, is there a GT list for PArs. Id rather play with guys on here than gaf. my friends list is already pushing like erm, 9.
I was not in the spawning pits sadly
Pharezon is my gt :P
yo, i need to add you and Hotlead to take another step(s) closer to completing my British Isles set.
GT is DustAndEchoes77, but i swear i'm not a complete tool.
I'm part of the we're better than you set ;-)
Also neogaf thread has just increased hype to a level I hadn't thought possible
I'm the most excited about Forge, to be honest. At first, I was disappointed that it wasn't a fully-functioning map creation tool (as I've used Source SDK and UnrealEd), but seeing the possibilities, it really feels like a mix of being a Dungeon Master and a Referee.
Multiplayer will give it legs but Bioshock confirmed that I am a SP man. It has to be good. We know MP is going to be awesome, thats a given.
Also, when I get Gold membership again probably on the 25th Ill friends list a bunch of people and get you guys my gt.
And then i get a bit light-headed.
edit: yeah, i'm a SP guy at heart, i've put more time into Halo 1 and 2 campaign than any amount of time into any multiplayer game (easily). But after getting my hands on the beta, it actually felt like something i'd be happy wasting a good few hours in. Not in a competitive way, i'll use matchmaking when there's nothing else, but mostly playing PA folk, where i'm pretty sure i can kick back a little more.
Campaign will be awesome for me
My heart bleeds for them and their stupidity. oh wait... It doesn't. | scar | you are one huge fucking moron.
Is that the quote from the start of the Halo 3 e307 trailer?
Cause I dont think that was the Prophet of Truth.
It was High Charity Halo 2
Also NINJA ARMOR PERM!
Damn I need to go back and play Halo 2.
Edit - If they have a Ninja Permutation, they have to have a Pirate Permutation.
I guess we found our [URL="javascript:openAssetPopupWindow('/projects/halo3/asset_popup_viewer.aspx?at=60&cc=21&item=0');"]perp.[/URL]
I can imagine what Mike Foxtrots probably means, but i'm not getting the 'romeo echo' part.
Neat little things to notice (Like the way they explained how you couldn't use the Fuel Rod Cannon in Halo 1 for Xbox, "Dead Man's Switch").
Huh? Did I miss something? Where's all this stuff?
EDIT: I found it. I'm an idiot, I guess.
This post is full of win.

The RE stands for "rear echelon" - REMF is/was a disparaging term used by soldiers to describe dilettantes who work far away from the front lines and do little, if any fighting (and can apply to soldiers of any rank, even/especially brass). The term implies incompetence (e.g. the M16 powder issue, theorycrafting) and being out of touch with the conditions soldiers face at the front.
Rear Echelon Mofos
The brass. The people far away from the front.
edit:
BEAT BY MINUTES! And descriptiveness.
I know what the ladies like.
DICKS.
Also I must have the CE and continue growing my glorious collection of games in Tins. Ninja armor is looking real fresh, I'm liking all the odd permutations coming out, it means we'll actually see some diversity in looks now to differentiate the team and enemies. I gotta wonder which are most effective for camo or hit boxes, like certain colors just work better as natural camo in free for all, breaking up the human form with the old mc helmet and small visor is better than a nice shiny bubble of the SPI helmet. Which will be most advantageous, which are liabilities- like the Elite body and massive spiked headpiece.
Also the website says they have a little over 30 Elites in stock if anyone is interested.

which goes straight through a door and out in to a gunfight.
Hopefully it has the same party system as Halo 3 and CoD4.
I work for futureshop.ca (as has been mentioned many times. SHILL!). We don't overbook our pre-orders. We have a set amount of pre-orders and we sell to that point. When we reach it, pre-orders will be cut off.
I got stung by mall-based game trading competitor X once. I made sure our pre-order program is not rife with that bullshit.
Wait, what? The ODST armor is in multiplayer?
Anyway, snipers don't look for the guy that have pimpin suits. They look for dudes who are the easiest to kill, attacking their teammates, or have rocket launchers/swords.
I doubt there'd be much problem being the dude with the orange head.
Well thank god for people like you Threepio.

we do actually need a Bad Company thread, but i've made two "look, EA games that aren't all that bad" threads, and i'd feel like a shill making a third. But yes, those videos make it look pretty awesome, and i did laugh when he missed.
No, but there's a perm with a visor much like an ODSTs.
And I still can't wait to use the EVA armor. I won't get killed more than anyone else on the team.
After EA's CEO made the comment about upping the quality of their games, it really does appear that they're trying to do so as of late. They're following the ubisoft model of not making shitty games.
which is a radical idea, I know.
Sticking to PA/other forums you definitely trust (not SA or 4chan, etc.) would be a good idea.
