Yesssssss......I am AWESOME! Thanks Zed......................................awwww shucks it is an opposite day! Anyways, the person above me started this fun thread and should sleep each night knowing he changed the world for the better! The person below me still believes a "thread" is the stuff he uses to mend his worn socks with!

.....pizza crusts to a hungry.......

Blur, by Bizaar, is one friiggin' bad ass racing game. It can be bought used for $20.00 and new for $40.00, maybe even $20.00 new at Big Lots. It is not easy, but men is it a blast. If you get it, give a friend request and I will train you into the game. (As long as you are not a completely annoying ass!)

If I lived across the street from him I would call the cops every single time that ass turned it on. Who in the world would want to live any where near that?

The "Signature Shop" that is pinned at the top of this forum.

Can't say i love it. I still commit suicide with it about half the time I pick it up! lol ! I tend to use it for bait.

Ummmm....yeah. Okay, what in the world are you talking about? lol

My apologies for not continuing the story this past week. I am visiting my mother and remodeling her bathroom and it has only giving me short times to be in the forums. There will be a massive addition in the next update to make up for it. Thank you for your understanding. Dog

Well I'll be a son-of-a-.............................nice one bro'! Now......let's here it, drum roll sounds, your prediction for Halo 4. Take your time now, this will live on in the history of this forum and the internet in general, so no pressure!

I can definitely get behind this idea. Being Halo 4 is following H3 the incorporation of the existing armors that would definitely rock with the new graphics and give continuity to the game. I do expect some new armor variants and hope they are just stand alone armors. I voted for all of them.

I personally feel that John 117 should have his original, if only graphically updated, armor for campaign. When it comes to match making I am old school about simple design and color. You are a soldier after all, not a peacock strutting around. I am not denigrating your post, just emphatically getting my point across. I do realize that some players really do want customizable everything and won't vote against it.

Judging from the viewed location, the simple lines and figuring 343ind. or Bungie and their cohorts in design would release ideas on their own I would say it's fan based. Still it is a unique idea for a ground based transport and weapons platform that could rival the Covies.

It doesn't now!

Since the first moment Halo Combat Evolved hit the market players became immersed into a new world of gaming and FPS (first person shooters). It did not take long for the game to gain a cult following that later became known as the "Halo Nation". The games that followed grew a fan base that had no rival. Bungie furthered the interaction of fans with each other and itself with Bungie.net and the creation of the Seventh Column. There were, from the beginning, discussions about the game, the story, what fans really liked, what they did not like and wanted to see added or changed. There were changes made from game to game that advanced play with each step forward. Better graphics, slight improvements in weapons, new additions in technology within the games story line (ie bubble shield, vehicles, etc.) that kept the series fresh and continued the system of ranks and game types that had been there from the beginning. There were improvements to reduce cheating and remove glitches from the game. Then came a series of releases that were a departure from the original. Halo Wars, ODST and Reach were unlike the previous games. You were now in the past, fighting as regular soldiers in campaigns and in Reach's match making. Halo Wars was presented as an overhead view unit play game that had less emphasis on the spartan and more on the overall cast of fighters. We were soon left with Bungies departure and 343inds. arrival on the scene. Bungies final gift to the fans was meet with heavy criticism and quickly we saw the number of players drop and hold near what they are today. Was it the game? Was there too much change? Was the fan base already on a mass exit from the series? Were we giving to much of a voice and literally talked ourselves into our respective corners refusing to accept anything but what we as an individual wanted? This thread is to hopefully allow us to give our opinions freely in a single post. Try not to criticize others beliefs or opinions, just give you own. What Happened?

Bill Gates, like him or not,he created the empire of Microsoft that has given us what we have today. I don't believe in ghosts! lol Would you rather climb a high, cold mountain or descend into a deep, dark cave?

I was really disheartened when Arena Doubles was removed from ranked play. It was more populated than Arena Slayer and FFA combined and had a dedicated group of players. It was the only game type I truly enjoyed playing and I maintained 3 accounts during that time. Placing Team Doubles in "Competitive" and drastically changing it from what it was before was no answer. They should have left Arena Doubles alone. How many of you played it, feel it should have been left or believe it needs to be returned? Should 343ind. give a complete ranked play list a chance or is it too late to correct the ranked issue? Halo games have always had ranked play and even though Reach had many gaffs, in my opinion, removing and even not having a comprehensive "ranked" play lists was a failure.

I guess what really annoyed and surprised me was that it was ranked doubles, not a game type I really ran into that kind of behavior. I realize now from posts it is a glitch unique to the map. It is a behavior I have seen more in Reach than I ever did in Halo.

What? Ignoring you is the best solution. People have repeated stated their thoughts and ideas and you childishly repeat, like a parrot, "Examples, examples!"

I am in the camp of players who like Halo the way it was. The whole game was about playing as John 117. When they allowed player to start playing as Elites I was not really thrilled about it playing as one myself. That is when you started noticing that you were not playing on a level playing field to some degree. Everyone who played swat knew this because an Elite was harder to kill. I accepted the idea because I understood so many people liked or wanted the chance to play the Elite. For me the story, the game, and the franchise has always been about "The Spartan" John 117. ODST campaign and Reach campaign and MM have only provided years of an antagonistic feeling towards a game and the company that produced it. The thought of playing a multitude of different characters, changing facial features and having and endless string of "customizable" this or that does not interest me at all. Instead of continuing to get further away from the heart of this game and loose even more fans, there needs to be an effort to return to it's roots. I once used an analogy about Ford having the Mustang as a hallmark car for so many years, much like Bungies Halo CE, 2 & 3. Then they create the Mustang II, Reach for Bungie, and loose the fans of the car. Sure some bought and loved their little pony, but real enthusiasts turned their backs and walked away. Ford realized that the "heart" of the mustang needed to return to that nameplate, and look where the mustang is today. 343ind. has the golden opportunity to bring the "heart" back to the game. I hope they do.

She is her own best argument against herself sometimes! lol

Added a poll to the thread, sorry, should have been there from the beginning.

There ya go! harder than I post, but the point none the less!

I missed this post earlier Braver, nicely put.

I hear you. It was only offered as an idea that would encourage people in another way to attempt sprees.
