By the way, (this is mostly for Strubes), I couldn't beat the first level of Halo 2 with Thunderstorm on. That is how much harder the game is made by skulls.

Ah, I don't even know how to get skulls or activate them or anything in Halo 2. I thought they were Halo 3 exclusive. :lol
 
Re: Halo 3 General Discussion

Yeah, they are in Halo 2. Hard to unlock too, because you have to play through the levels on Legendary to get them, and when you turn your Xbox off the effects reset.

But, on Legendary with only Thunderstorm on I could not beat the first level.

7-11 will also have LE 3-D Slurpee Cups with the Master Chief, and a Game Fuel Slurpee, details here http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/h/halo3/gamefuel/default.htm
 
Re: Halo 3 General Discussion

That's awesome. I'll definitely get the slurpee and the cups. :D


The marketing isn't getting ridiculous. They're not really pressing for the Plasma pistol and stuff to be sold as to marketing the game. Plus, it's marketing isn't doing too bad, having over 5 million preorders and setting a new record. :D
 
Re: Halo 3 General Discussion

The marketing is actually a good move. It attracts to the person who may have never touched a console with halo in it to suggest to pick up a copy. Just my idea of it. :lol
 
Re: Halo 3 General Discussion

Like I said earlier I am suprised it took them this long to start pimping Halo, which could be a double edged sword I belive. On one hand this will be a Massive Money Maker for them, but on the other hand this "could" alienate some of their die hard customers. Only time will tell what the fallout from this may be, and maybe I am totally wrong and everyone will embrasse these marketing tools with open pockets
 
Re: Halo 3 General Discussion

I don't see how it could alienate die-hard customers. I'd think those, above all, would be the ones welcoming all this.
 
Re: Halo 3 General Discussion

So what does everyone think about the elephant? Everyone is going to want to drive it and man the turret. It might be hard to get to drive it because so many n00bs will spam it. I'm going to let someone else drive it, because i'm going to be sticking with it via chopper. like a remora to a shark.
 
Re: Halo 3 General Discussion

Imagine what the defenses on that beast will be, for one there is a turret, now add the countless troops guarding it and the choppers and hogs that will circle it making sure no one gets close. It may be able to be hijacked but the elephant will put up a decent fight.
 
Re: Halo 3 General Discussion

Yeah the elephant looks like it will make for some interesting gameplay
 
Re: Halo 3 General Discussion

I doubt you can easily hijack an Elephant, considering it is a base. Ever try spawn camping? You get kicked out fairly quickly.

>Map editor (you're not making your own maps though)
> Does not support geometry creation, or texture modification
> Allows you to remove and place any items or vehicles or spawn points or objectives, etc... anywhere on the existing maps
> For things like weapons you can tweak their respawn timer and ammo count and other minor things
> You can have multiple people work in the Forge editor over Xbox Live!
> You can also dynamically switch from creation mode to playing mode and run around in the game.
> If you are "playing" in Forge and have other players in it, they can still change things! For instance, if you have a friend making a pyramid of fusion cores, you can return to "play" mode and lob a grenade in to destroy all his work!
> Make your own kind of games in forge. Bungie gives the example of grab the mongoose. One player rides a mongoose while everyone else tries to grab it out from under him by removing it in Forge! Another is like a magic carpet ride where one player will stand on a object and a forge monitor will drag it along making the player ride it through the air.
> Finally Bungie talked about how you can kind of make it into a real-time strategy game (RTS) where you set up "teams" where each team has a monitor creating items for his team to use.
>After editing/making a level you can upload it and anyone can download it.
