    Wasn't there a teaser or a one off mention about some of the Firefly cast re-recording lines for something Halo related?

    Halo "Game of the Year" edition, maybe with the extra achievements/new maps being along the lines of an expansion pack, kind of like how Halo 2 had the Multiplayer disc you could buy in stores was.

    It'd probably be a good idea to have a GOTY edition with a code for Legendary in it. Otherwise it's going to cost you 60$ + 30$ to to get up to speed for new players.

    I was thinking like how Gears of War or Oblivion's GOTY editions have the install disc for the extra stuff, but yeah, a code would be cool too.

    I imagine they could at least put Heroic on the disc.

    Look even if Legendary were to become free tomorrow, the amount of FunTimes™ that have been had on them were well worth the 800 MS funbux I spent on them.

    I wonder if you get all the points then recon would be unlocked. And all hell would break loose.

    I seriously thought that mythic was bungie screwing with us. I was mistaken. I did notice there are 3 more slots of enabling skulls so that will make things interesting. The 9/25/08 reference is very interesting too. That could mean that its going to happen very soon.

    I don't regret buying the map packs. I love avalanche and ghost town (Blackout can be emo and kill itself though)

    Actually, it is interesting that the achievement is only gettable after the anniversary, not after the patch.

    Either just to make it go with the name or to prevent people from getting all the achievements within the first day or two.

    I think bungie would be stupid if they open up recon to everyone though and it sounds like something of that nature. I'm getting a bit tired of bungie's shit and stuff like foundry.

    As much as I love pax, it accentuated why I need to stop playing video games and get on with my life.

    Oh, believe me. Even just Iron makes Halo a bitch on Legendary.

    Couple that with the fact that when you hit the end everyone must be in ghosts.

    I also like how making it so everyon has to be in ghosts means you have to start from the beginning and everyone is on their own when making the final run.

    Hey, asshats. When someone dodges a ban with an alt you're supposed to press the report button.

    Or maybe you could do your own job because I'm pretty sure vbb has tools that shows you all the accounts using one IP address

    and the fact that I don't know why you posted it in this thread

    edit: also every time I've used the report button I get blowback from it. I am not inclined in the least to use it anymore.

    I kind of have to suspect people first. I'm not psychic. And do you seriously expect me to IP check every single new account that gets created? We have close to 35,000 accounts here.

    Possibly new achievements coming

    And if those are true, we have names for up to 6 new DLC maps.


    -Heretic
    -Assembly (formerly Purple Reign)
    -Citadel
    -Sandbox
    -Orbital (sounds like Space Camp/Moonbase Alpha)
    -Longshore (Headlong?!?!?! or Relic)

    Whoa cool
    I hope Sandbox is a smaller version of Sandtrap.. I like the whole desert Forerunner theme, but I hate that map with a passion.

    If you look at the ban log, Echo might let him keep his new shiny alt. Thrill needs to stop sticking his finger into the electric socket though. I'm amused and sad that its part my fault that he got banned.

    Me too. I think it'd be cool if they came out with Spartan armor, but sized for an elite, but I'd take anything at this point.
    It would be nice to see more customization options in general, but I don't think that'll happen. I really would like some more color options so that even in team games, there is more differentiating one person from another than just your armor choices. An option to change visor colors maybe, so the big glowing sniper helmet isn't such a headshot beacon, for instance.

    So that's why I suck with the sniper rifle. Could that also be why I despise shotty-snipers...I'm not wearing the right armor?

    The EVA helmet. I'm trying to remember where exactly I read it was a helmet designed for Spartan snipers, that part might just be my imagination, but it glows twice as bright as the rest of the helmets and is so easy to pick out, lining up a headshot is easier. It is totally a mental thing, but seriously - search Halo Eva Snipers and every page is bitching about how it is a target for snipers.

    http://www.halo3planet.com/armor-permutations/eva-armor/

    edit2: It is my imagination. It is made for Spartans in zero grav, apparently. So when I say "sniper helmet," I guess I mean "snipe me helmet"

    The gold visors aren't going to be re-colorable because that would give some people an unfair advantage.
