It's a good thing they haven't figured out how to add it to the Suppressor yet. It looks like that mod gives bottomless clip infinite ammo.

Oh hey fatal. It was a joy playing with you and welcome to the forums

There aren't very many good arguments against nuclear energy... There aren't any good arguments for solar energy as it stands right now. In the future there might be an argument against nuclear energy or for solar energy... BTW guys nuclear energy is so plentiful that it is basically unlimited. By the time we would run out there would probably be Dyson Spheres or we'd all be extinct.

20 people at it's peak sounds like a bit of a fib to me. There was always a decent modding and gaming community on there. I don't think that they were accounting for dedicated servers as well.

Basically anything that comes out of the G-Mans mouth is spectacular. These are from the Half-Life series.

Well I made #7... I'm flattered

Lone Wolves has always been a major part of Halo as well. Also infection was one of the most popular playlists. I don't think that this reasoning is enough to justify the lack of FFA playlists in Halo 4. If your a FFA fan and you don't like Regicide then you are kind of in a tricky situation with the way they have designed the playlists for the game. I would expect to see FFA pop up in the future in the form of a rotational playlist or (hopefully) a permanent one.

Logic would dictate no... There simply isn't enough money to be made compared to what they could produce making FPS versions of the game. While there was a dedicated fanbase for the first game, the first one wasn't nearly as much of a success as to spawn another one. Way I see it if they want to try and hire a company to do one for the PC (not likely) then go for it... but another iteration on the console will have limited potential.

Well all I can say is that Halo 2 may have been the best game ever released, in my eyes of course. It being shut down will officially kill it I believe. To make matters worse I'm 100% certain that they are going to be shutting it down based of faulty statistics. 20 People at the peak of it's population... give me a break. 343i didn't exactly get off to the best start with Halo 4 (opinions of a lot of people) and this may serve to piss a lot of people off. Terrible move on 343i's part. You don't simply take over the mantle, change the face of the game on such a drastic scale, and then shut down one of the better (if not best) online experiences of all time, and then have it bid over well with the fans.

First strike is simply one of those medals where there is no way to speed up the process drastically. Best bet would be to just strive for the other commendations first and then you should probably have it by the time that you finish those. I assume that you're interested in the Stance, correct? It's not a choice right now but in the future when it comes out playing Grifball can probably speed up the process considerably.

I don't think that I would get my hopes up for this. The way they designed the War Games menus it would be hard to do a variety of gametypes in one selection. Though I could be wrong. Either way, I'd love to see some BTB CTF...

Well I know that Incineration Cannon starts out spawned in the bottom section of Solace next to a sword. Just make a loadout that lets you reach it before your enemies and it can pretty much guarantee you at least one kill but more likely more. One good tip I can give you in your pursuits is to use a loadout with both Requisition (Pathfinder) and Ordinance Priority. Both of these combined should make it more likely to get Scattershots, Binary Rifles, and Incineration Cannons.

Best intro song ever.

Welcome to the forums

I said Team Slayer Pro. I think that when they decided to introduce such drastic shifts in gameplay mechanics it would have been a safe thing to provide a fallback for players who preferred an older style of Halo gaming. If I am not mistaken they had originally planned accordingly in adding Team Slayer Pro but quickly took it out post release. Let's hope for a speedy return

Welcome back

It's all a matter of opinions, strictly speaking. Here's my reasoning for why I don't want a Halo 2 Anniversary. Call me crazy but playing Halo 2 on upgraded graphics would ruin the nostalgia for me. I'm certain there are a lot of people out there in the same boat. Plus I don't see the lowered graphics in Halo 2 as being low enough to call for a remaster. After they did the first game people will expect every one to get remastered. There were reasons (It being the first game being the biggest that comes to mind) that they should have remade the first but no others. Considering the way people feel about current features of the game I'd say that the last thing they would want to do is take modern Halo 2 stuff and mash those features all over it. Halo 2 was a very respected multiplayer game... I think I speak for a large portion of the population when I say that Halo 2 was the pinnacle of multiplayer for the duration of the Xbox. A lot of people may make an argument for Halo 3 but many of the people that Have played Halo 2 online would qualify it as the best online FPS experience to ever exist. (opinions of course) I don't think changing this out for game features that have (let's be honest) not been met with much love from a considerable amount of players would be the best move. I don't know what I'm talking about but somebody that obviously does (Twinreaper) has made his case for superbounces being fixed. The best I can do considering my lack of knowledge is rely on his expertise and go with his word. Superbounces were a very large part of the nostalgia for a very (VERY) large portion of the community and fixing them would be a minor, but notable, mark against the game. Once again, all opinions.

Just added a TBA list as well. I added only the Xbox and PS3 games with a few PC games that I think people would care about as well

SOURCE: http://www.gameinfor...e-schedule.aspx It's no secret that the most game packed portion of the year will be the holiday season, but that's not to say that there are some great games scheduled for release in the beginning portions of this new year. These games include another installment in popular franchises such as Bioshock, Dead Space, Devil May Cry, Crysis, and Gears of War. Plus with the plethora of games that will likely be released but are not on this list because of not having a set-in-stone release date, this year looks to start out strong.

When dealing with with such situations as the Chief has to deal with, I think that any choice is justifiable. I remember a very good Jack Bauer quote from 24. Granted it's not the exact same situation and not on the exact same scale, but I think it's point is relatively similar. When it comes to such a large number of human lives there is nobody that can order you to make a decision that you believe would endanger or doom them. I'm sure nobody on these forums would follow orders if they believed it would result in a million deaths. If Master Chief honestly believes that Del Rio's orders would result in a large number of innocent deaths, then he is somewhat justified in his not following orders. All personal opinion of course
