An incredible take on the Halo Universe: http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/29549-halo-diorama-series

It depends how they're used. To me that was pointless use of a shield door. I think they could be good for aesthetics or for doorways like on Epitaph. It was odd that he didn't die just because he was standing in the shield door but I think that's just poor placement of a shield door.

I could totally see that. This is a whole new take on the Halo Universe right here and I love it

This is actually a very cool image to me because this is like the adaptation of life after the war. The wreckage has become part of every day life and sit out and eventually kids of course start exploring them and playing around on them. Nice diorama!

Here's a thread from the mind of Absolute Dog that I wrote up to encourage discussion amongst the community. It addresses the rumors going around that gamers playing the same games, no matter which platform, would be able to play together. Read what I and others from the community had to say here. PLAY DATES Halo: Reach Play Date This Halo: Reach Play Date was interesting to say the least. I missed out on the beginning but when I got there everyone was in a big lobby with randoms and they were getting them to betray them so that they could boot them out of their own party. Apparently Omega inForce (Jl1223 X/JL X4) recorded the whole thing and put it on YouTube. There was this whole trolling business that JL put together and it was very anti-climactic . Afterwards we left and played some competitive customs like Headhunter, SWAT, and FFA Slayer. GSD won everything. See you all next week at our Staff vs Members Play Date! sign up here. Participants: GermanShepherdD, -Sparky-, D-38 Boss, Omega inForce, JXZAW, DN2012, Frankenzer Attend Play Dates, rack up Awards: USF ELECTION The United States of the Forum Presidential Election is always a fun time on the site. The mud slinging and bribery starts and with that comes good campaigning. This year's winner was...... ME! (Drizzy_Dan) I am the new Forum President so you know what that means? Nothing! It's just a fun time in my opinion and thank you to Spyro for always coming back and running it every 4 months! Now everyone must address me as Sir. YOUTUBE OH MY GOD. That is what I said when I saw this Community Spotlight by Oakley HiDef of The Halo Forge Epidemic. Guys this is going to blow your minds. Oakley spotlights a video maker by the name of Gugga Leunnam. What Gugga does is take CGI clips from Halo Games and puts movie trailer audio over them and does it AMAZINGLY. If you don't like this video then I hate you. This has been a public service announcement by your Forum President, now scroll back up and read it all over again.

I don't know about you guys but I saw some awesome things that I really liked about Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag at E3. I'm a big fan of Assassin's Creed since the first one and I just got back into AC3. I came across some multiplayer footage from IGN just today and I gotta say it looks great. New game modes, maps, graphics of course, theme. The whole pirate thing is pretty badass. Here's the video by IGN that shows off the Multiplayer. It's got some funky music but don't be repelled by that please just stick it through and watch the video haha. Check out these awesome trailers for Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag and tell me what you think of the game. By IGN By IGN By AssassinsCreed Display your love for the games below.

Is the Xbox One worth getting just for Halo 5?
Drizzy_Dan replied to DaveAtStateFarm's topic in General Discussion
Without knowing a thing about Halo 5 then there's not a lot that people can say. However I say hell yes. -
Rumors have been going around that there is a possibility for cross-platform gaming with the next gen consoles. For example if some players are playing Destiny on PlayStation Network and other players are playing it on Xbox Live then they'd be able to play together because they're playing the same game. Now, I don't think that they'd do this simply because of the competition between the two gaming consoles and although it'd unite a gaming community, that's not what business is about. Keep in mind that these games are being held on the same developer servers. Here's some things that others had to say: Azaxx says, "Across PS4 and Xbox One, it has a very slim chance. It works because of being consoles, but may not happen because Sony/MS. And PC to consoles simply will not happen. Way to OP for PC to be playing." Halo5 follower said, "well, there was a rumor that the PS3 game, Dust514, would be able to play with Xbox. However, that was just on Youtube, so the reliability of it was pretty low. If microsoft can talk to Sony then a guess things may start to happen..." Contrary to the beliefs above Ledgend 1221 had this to say, "With Games like ESO, I'd say there's a chance it will happen. At least I hope so, it would be fun to duke out the rivalry in an online arena. PCs should remain separate, too much of a gap." Archangel Tyrael chimed in about PC cross platforming as well as console and said, "I don't think cross platform servers will be done. Mainly for PC; PC will dominate for these various reasons: 1.) Easier and precise aiming. 2.) Modding can be done easier and hackers. This will be a serious problem. 3.) More control. 4.) Putting PC players and consoles players together would cause a lot of butthurt fanboys and unfair gameplay. That's just for the PC. Now I am not saying it's impossible for Xbox and PS to share servers, but in my opinion, it wont happen. Xbox and PS are rival consoles. Not only that, there is already servers for Xbox and Sony; that leads me to think they will be to their own console. While, it might be nice it just wont happen and shouldn't because of the last PC reason -- even for MMO's like: TESO, and anymore that are to come." TexHellsAngel376 has a similar belief to mine and told me, "I don't think MS and Sony will stop fighting enough to do it." Will the dream of cross-platform gaming ever become a reality? Discuss and leave your thoughts below.

Destiny At E3: Gameplay,Trailers and Interviews
Drizzy_Dan replied to Adam91's topic in General Discussion
BEAUTIFUL coverage buddy. I'm gonna take a while watching these. The gameplay video, although a bit unflattering for the game, still shows some good qualities and to me looks pretty close to Halo when it was made by Bungie but for a different type of game. (A shared world first person shooter instead of a mission style first person classic shooter.) By the way I love XPlay and Adam Sessler. I love Morgan Webb even more though -
Welcome to the site Ishmael! Sorry for our word censors blocking you out even though you weren't trying to be profane. Hope you like it here.

AWESOME! EGYPTIANGHETTO Congratulations on becoming a Legendary Member. You didn't need the title for us to know you were a legend on the site, but it looks good!

Here's a very late welcome to the site Vangelis! I hate D-38 Boss, maybe I'll like you! Jk Boss..

I don't think it will because it says the journey will begin on the Xbox One in 2014

Great book for sure. It's great to play the game first AND THEN read the book because you get the answers to things that you don't see in Halo: Combat Evolved
