The jet pack is more epic

I found the jetpack fairly useless in the campaign for anything but movement. Enemies track you way too easily, especially Skirmisher snipers.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made.

Oh yeah, and Cheese...there's a clip of how to do "If They Came to Hear Me Beg..." on my fileshare.

I tried to do it on matchmaking on invansion on the spire. Jumped off the top and missed.

It made me laugh so ah well.

I for one am also very happy that you don't face the Flood in this one. I knew from the story line that The Flood woulden't be in the game but once I played it and realised I didn't have to play through a single narrativly pointless mission filled with alien zombies I was very happy

Seriously! Wasn't the flood originally added because they just ran out of time making the first game? Or did that only cause them to play through all the levels backwards, and they'd planned to include the flood, anyway?

Good riddance, what boring levels those made... and if I wanted to play resident evil or whatever, I'd go play it instead...

Very happy with the game! Not very far on the campaign yet, however.

No I think they where actually apart of the original story it just wasen't a good part even the critics said that while the plot twist of the Halo ring itself was a good point for the game it was slightly ruined by the inclusion of The Flood. And even though Bungie tried to make The Flood be "not zombies" we all know that's exactly what they are.

Back to the Banshee problem, I finally did it (about 6 times) but it won't give me the achievment? has this happened to anyone else?

Managed to get a LE two days ago, and I've played to start of mission five so far in campaign.

Loving the game so far. Going to continue tonight, and I do think I'll be reactivating my Gold to play online. I'll probably want to finish the Campaign first mind.

The biggest surprise for me is you could make noble 6 female, always a bonus.

Just had a great time with Kanluwen. Messed around in Forge, kicked arse in Firefight, and discussed my perverse sexual lust.

I'm often told my voice alone is creepy and threatening, so it's no big deal.

And you were chasing balls too, remember? In fact, you even tried attacking me with yours!

So I have heard from my brother who has the game that this is basically Halo in name only, most of the weapons are changed and such, how much truth does he speak?

He also says Head Hunter is a blast.

I've never feared Death or Dying. I've only feared never Trying.

This is a bigger change than CE>2 or 2>3, but it's still good old Halo.

And yes, Headhunter is hilarious.

Good to know, thanks. Might have to pick it up, but I'll probably wait for a bit, still.

Completed my first campaign, dang that was good. It made me want to boot up Combat Evolved and play through the trilogy again.

Strangely enough I'm almost to Captain and it was pretty easy thanks to Forge World. I love the option and have made multiple maps already (although I don't have Live to share them). The current map I'm making is a castle, I've only spent about 2k credits and have earned about 8k in return and I'm not even close to done on the map.
