Halo?

Sun Oct 24, 2004 1:48 am

Any anybody played just Halo? My sister's friend, Brad, brought over his X-box and Boris brought over 2 more controllers. We had a 3 against 1 Halo game, and Brad still won!

That gun that fires green lasers/breath can charge is nice.....and if you charge long enough it can fire really far. I prefer sniper guns, especxially the night vision one which has a 10x sniperscope. My tips for snipering is hide in the dark, on a base roof, or on a cliff. Shoot them before they get too close to you. If you get into a close-range battle you're doomed, since sniperguns are for long range. So you'll wanna shoot them. Crystals that give tempoary invisibility are good for snipers too. You can be everywhere where they're looking, and not looking.

Yup. I've played juuust Halo. I don't own it, but my friend does. We always end up playing it whenever I go to her house. Hrm... I think last time I was there we decided to play the game the way it was supposed to be played and got all the way to the level where you're in the library place... thing... It's actually quite fun! But we usually just skip the whole shooting aliens thing, and use this sorta cheat (on the snowy level) to climb down the mountainside and get onto the ground. From there, we fully run over the marines in the jeep (yeah, we're evil) then go through the whole level as far as we can. The funny part, is that there are no aliens. Anywhere. Of course, you can't get through to the next level without clearing the aliens, but hey, we get to fly in the Banshee's instead of just shoot 'em down... (that IS what you call the big fly-y things.. right?)

When you refer to aliens, you mean on the partner(s) one?

I played that. My partner had to keep respawning me cause I always died...meh. My favorite partner level is on the ship....everytime the plane flew we were barraging it madly. We got it down once. Those alien with shields were anoyying. Meh. Run around and FIRE!

Bah snipering. Melee attacks are much more fun!

My brother owns Halo and continually insists I play 2-player missions with him. Having said that, his idea of 2-player is clobbering my character over the back of the head with a gun after about 30 seconds.

Ranging is rubbish, berserking is fun with the shotgun. You will fall to my terrible tactics. Try rockets, its hella fun.

I know, rocket launchers are awesome!

Ok, come over to my house and we'll test our sniper vs. shotgun debate. I'll waste you before you even get close to me.

I remember playing that in a shop in front of a queue of people and I really couldn't get the hang of the controls. Kept running backwards and into walls. Eventually I could just about walk and shoot but then I had to go. That experience sort of put me off.

I am one of the biggest halo fans. I've beat the game twice on all difficulites, I've shot down a banshee with a rocket launcher, and I've propelled enemie spartan warriars across multiplayer levels with plasma granades. Any fun thing to do in that game I've done. I've stepped out of the way of a charging hunter then melee attack his back for a quick 1 hit kill. I also read all 3 halo books. Quite an interesting plot. I'm also going to get halo 2 as soon as it comes out and smoke whoever comes before me in xbox live for halo 2. 8)
