    So on the brighter side of things one of the guys at worked showed me how to hook a harddrive up to my xbox...took bout an hour but now I've got a 250gb drive and was able to transfer all my data over myself woot


    so it's not going to mess up your DRM on your DLC and stuff?

    Nope it works pretty great I just got the xbox to format the drive after, then transferred the data then recovered my account and it's working fine, It was pretty gay before I was running with like 5 gb of space lol...damn XBLA

    Only problem was finding a drive that could support it, the drives that Microsoft uses are digitally signed to allow compatibility with the system but only certain drives support it. So I had to find one that I could flash to do it, but once I got that it worked fine, was able to pick up the drive for 79 cdn too. Thats a lot cheaper then the official one from Microsoft thats 120gb and cost around 200

    So I'm reading about the map "Purple Reign" and it's starting to sound like Midship.

    Oh lord I hope it isn't Midship.

    Ranced, if blackout was lockout and avalanche was sidewinder, Purple reign may very well be midship. They should of updated all of the halo 2 maps and installed it into halo3. That would of saved us alot of headache.

    From what I read, it seems they're trying to make a better midship, with the upper floor and such.

    I'm withholding opinion until I see screenshots though.

    I think Blackout sort of proved the 'small map' doesn't work that well in Halo 3, though.

    Now if they made Midship the size of Sanctuary, maybe I'd like it.

    1v1 is back!?! HOORAAAAAAYYYY.
    I really liked it, even if the cheating made me punch the TV until my knuckles bled.
    Also, and exploit on Valhalla makes the Zombie game type Speed Demons broked.
    Makes me sad.

    The indicator over heads may improve it.

    Obviously in my current condition though, it'd be too stressful for me to even try (sweet jesus I found out today I lost 10 pounds over the the whole ordeal)

    Fyre, if you're looking for unstressful games try XBLA Uno and Viva Pinata. There's really not much to get frustrated at.

    Actually I already have Uno, and I just bought TMNT 1989 (which isn't stressful since UNLIMITED CONTINUES) since I found out it was 400 msbux.

    Looking for some help to go thru the Campaign to get the my last Achievments(the 15,000 point meta-game awards). Would anyone be willing to lend a hand and some recommendations as to the best skull-combo to use?

    Your sig was too large. Maximum sig size is 500x80. - Jacobkosh.

    Doing it on Normal with every skull but Iron, Blackeye and the two "fuck you" skulls which I forget, but they're the ones that say "What was resistance is now immunity" and "Your enemy makes every saving throw", if you can't get anyone to play with you.

    Try to go a bit fast as the multiplier really helps. For example, if you can make it to the end before you lose the 3x multiplier, you only have to score a bit over 5,000 points.

    Try to be as fancy as possible. Sticking, using a plasma pistol +BR/carbine combo to take a brute down, headshots, etc, all give you a better points multiplier.

    Just the skull combination + doing fancy stuff should give you enough points to have the multiplier push you over. Except for The Covenant and The Ark, those you definitely should aim to hit the 50,000 or whatever since they're so damn long.

    This is coming from a company who can't setup a decent hosting system and their backend properly. I totally believe that excuse.

    I always just found it funny that the excuse from the developers of argueably the most played game on xbox live was " OH MY GOD IF WE LET YOU TALK LIKE EVERY OTHER GAME THEN THE SERVERS WILL BE SET ABLAZE AND FOUR HORSEMEN WILL RISE UP AND CUT A BLOODY SWATH OF WAR, DEATH, PESTILENCE AND FAMINE ACROSS THE COUNTRYSIDE."
